| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| ACCESS | 3 | 22m 8s | 1.67 | 2.33 | 1.67 | 2.33 | ✓ |

## Week-over-Week Movement
- Improve protocol adherence and case documentation (e.g., serial number collection, warranty verification, HappyFox case creation).
- Correct technical inaccuracies, especially for password recovery and hardware troubleshooting.
- Reduce unresolved calls by ensuring clear resolution steps and follow-up procedures.

## What Went Well

1. **Accurate model identification and troubleshooting guidance**  
   > Correctly identified the router model (EA7300) early in the call [01:31]. Provided accurate factory reset duration (20 seconds) and correct local IP address ([REDACTED_PHONE]) [26:15, 17:17].  
   [#LTS00131992](https://linksys.happyfox.com/staff/ticket/131992/)

2. **Logical troubleshooting sequence for hardware issues**  
   > Performed logical troubleshooting sequence: power cycle → factory reset → Ethernet connectivity test. Suggested using known-working Ethernet cable to rule out cabling issue.  
   [#LTS00131571](https://linksys.happyfox.com/staff/ticket/131571/)

---

## Growth Opportunities

1. **Incomplete troubleshooting and case documentation**  
   *What better looks like*: Always verify WAN LED status, attempt router admin UI login, and create a HappyFox case number during troubleshooting.  
   > Did not check WAN LED status to confirm upstream connectivity. Did not attempt or instruct login to router admin interface. Did not create or cite a HappyFox case number, violating standard case management protocol.  
   [#LTS00131571](https://linksys.happyfox.com/staff/ticket/131571/)

2. **Incorrect or unsupported technical advice**  
   *What better looks like*: Follow documented password-recovery steps (five-digit recovery key, `myrouter.info`, or factory reset) and confirm device proximity is *not* required for email-based resets.  
   > Provided technically incorrect advice: being physically next to the device is not required for email-based password reset (contradicts KB). Failed to follow documented password-recovery process.  
   [#LTS00131830](https://linksys.happyfox.com/staff/ticket/131830/)

---

## Next Week's Focus

- **Protocol adherence**: Capture serial numbers, verify warranty status, and create HappyFox cases for *all* technical interactions.  
- **Password recovery**: Memorize and deploy the three documented methods (`myrouter.info`, recovery key, factory reset) for ACCESS issues.  
- **Hardware troubleshooting**: For LED-based diagnostics, always check WAN LED and attempt admin UI access before concluding hardware failure.  
- **Case closure**: Ensure every call ends with a clear next step, follow-up plan, or resolution confirmation.

## Technical Accuracy

**Improvement**  
> Agent provided incorrect advice for email-based password reset, stating the customer must be physically next to the device, which contradicts KB guidance. Correct procedure (five-digit recovery key or `myrouter.info`) was not followed.  
[#LTS00131830](https://linksys.happyfox.com/staff/ticket/131830/)

**Improvement**  
> Agent failed to perform basic troubleshooting for RE6400 extender (reset, power-cycle, LED interpretation) and incorrectly recommended purchasing a new unit without confirming the fault or warranty status.  
[#LTS00131629](https://linksys.happyfox.com/staff/ticket/131629/)

**Improvement**  
> Agent did not collect or verify warranty status for WHW01P mesh system, incorrectly stated warranty expired in 2023, and provided factually incorrect pricing information ('over $1' for router pair).  
[#LTS00062401](https://linksys.happyfox.com/staff/ticket/62401/)

**Strength**  
> Agent correctly guided customer through factory reset and admin UI access for EA7300, leading to successful password reconfiguration and confirmed login.  
[#LTS00131992](https://linksys.happyfox.com/staff/ticket/131992/)

**Improvement**  
> Agent did not follow standard case management protocol: no serial number, warranty check, or HappyFox case creation despite full troubleshooting session for EA7300 password reset.  
[#LTS00131992](https://linksys.happyfox.com/staff/ticket/131992/)

---

## Coaching Moments

**Improvement**  
> Agent suggested a 5‑press pairing method without confirming the product family, which may be incorrect for the customer's device.

## Escalation Lessons: What L2 Did

*No escalations occurred this week.*

---

## Coach Appendix

*Internal context only*:  
This week’s **EA7300 ACCESS** cases drove both the highest handle times and lowest scores. Prioritize structured password-recovery flows (recovery key > `myrouter.info` > factory reset) and enforce serial number/warranty checks. Protocol omissions (no case creation) directly impact accuracy scores—integrate case documentation into every call closure.
