Week-over-Week Movement

- Average handle time moved up by 3m 18s.
- Family swing: WHW handle time moved up by 15m 03s vs. last week.
- Family swing: MR handle time moved up by 8m 45s vs. last week.
- Family swing: MX handle time moved up by 7m 30s vs. last week.
What Went Well
- Accurate model/serial collection
> “Model number is MR7350. Serial number is 45T11M14B01722.”
- Patient, empathetic communication
> “I understand this is frustrating. Let’s walk through the reset together.”
- Effective self-help guidance
> “I’ll email step-by-step instructions for accessing the router locally.”
Growth Opportunities
- Avoid materially incorrect technical guidance
> “You can connect fiber directly to the MX8500 router.” (Incorrect — requires ONT)
Next step: Always verify fiber setup requires an ONT per KB; never advise direct wall-to-router connections.
- Perform baseline troubleshooting before escalation
> “I’ll escalate to Level 2 without checking WAN/LED status.”
Next step: Run power cycles, verify WAN cable/LEDs, and attempt factory resets before offering paid support or escalation.
Next Week's Focus
- Verify WAN connectivity first in all connectivity cases (cable, modem lights, speed tests).
- Use model-specific reset procedures (e.g., 15s for MBE7000, 10s for MR series).
- Avoid premature escalation — exhaust free troubleshooting steps and provide self-help resources.
- Document serial numbers and warranty status on every call to enable accurate support paths.
Technical Accuracy
Improvement
Call ID: f13738d8-5dca-11f1-85b5-42010a62006f
Note: Incorrectly stated fiber can connect directly to MX8500. MX8500 requires an ONT per KB; this misguidance risks customer errors.
#GI00131618
Improvement
Call ID: 04a8a03e-5eaa-11f1-bf23-42010a623f91
Note: Applied 5-press pairing to MX4200, which only supports Pair button/web UI. Caused failed setup and customer confusion.
#LTS00131873
Improvement
Call ID: 902feb46-5ea3-11f1-9f8b-42010a623f91
Note: Advised 5-press reset on MR20EC (Intelligent Mesh), which requires 10s hold until LED blinks fast. Led to incomplete reset.

Escalation Lessons: What L2 Did
#TE00023348 — Resolved by Level 2
- What L1 saw: MX6200 with intermittent disconnects, solid red LED, Comcast ISP.
- Why it escalated: Multiple L1 attempts failed to resolve; L2 needed advanced diagnostics.
- What L2 did:
- Verified WAN via modem reboot and cable reseat.
- Performed full factory reset and reconfiguration.
- Confirmed firmware compatibility and updated if needed.
- Current state: Resolved after L2 validation.
- L1 learning points:
1. Always check WAN/LED status before escalation.
2. For MX6200 red LED, try 15s factory reset + re-pair.
3. Document ISP and topology details early to accelerate L2 handoff.
Coach Appendix
- Weekly trend: High handle times on WHW/MX families correlate with lower protocol scores. Focus on standardizing WAN/LED checks and reset procedures for these products.
- Key pattern: Premature escalation and incorrect technical guidance (fiber, reset methods) are recurring. Reinforce KB adherence and baseline troubleshooting before escalation.
- Evidence: See Growth Opportunities and Technical Accuracy sections for specific call examples.
