V2 Grader Summary

The agent correctly identified the device was out-of-warranty and offered both self-help and paid support options, meeting OOW expectations. However, troubleshooting was incomplete and lacked empathy, resulting in a partial resolution. No escalation was needed or performed.

V1 Case Analysis

E5400 router with no internet; out-of-warranty. Agent advised factory reset and offered $15 paid support; customer will attempt reset.

Troubleshooting Steps
  • Collected model and serial number
  • Confirmed out-of-warranty status
  • Offered paid-support option
  • Advised factory reset and re-setup via support.linksys.com
Key Observations
  • Agent skipped basic checks (modem status, power cycle) before recommending a factory reset.
  • Reset instructions were technically correct per KB (press and hold reset button), but agent inaccurately suggested a laptop/computer was required for setup.
  • Agent correctly directed customer to support.linksys.com for self-help guidance.
  • No verification of fix was performed, leaving resolution unconfirmed.
Positive Highlights
  • Collected correct model and serial number.
  • Clearly communicated out-of-warranty status and $15 paid-support option.
  • Provided correct factory reset procedure (press and hold reset button).
  • Directed customer to support.linksys.com for self-help.
Agent Errors / Gaps
  • Did not verify basic connectivity steps (modem status, power cycle) before jumping to factory reset.
  • Incorrectly implied a laptop/computer is required for post-reset setup (KB does not require this).
  • Failed to confirm whether the reset resolved the issue before ending the call.
  • Minimal empathy and no explicit recap of next steps.

Agent suggested factory reset and offered paid support but did not resolve the internet connectivity issue or confirm resolution.

Speaker 2
I see. What's the model of your Linksys Router? Yes. The model number. And what's the serial number so we can double check its status? It should be either at the back or at the bottom of your Linksys Router.
01:00

04:00
Speaker 2
Mm-hmm. Thank you so much. HTO thank you so much. All right, let me quickly double check everything on my end regarding about the router as well. To clarify, did you notice any kind of power outage or maybe an internet outage? Mm-hmm. I see. And what have you done so far in regards with the router as well? Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. I see and still no changes afterwards. Thank you so much for that one. So in this case, since as you mentioned you're, You cannot go online and it has been happening for a couple of days now. And you've also tried to reboot the router, but still no changes. Then the router might not be connected with the internet line. So you might consider doing a complete factory reset on the Linksys router and set it back up from scratch, so that it can properly communicate with the modem. And to do this, since this is an E5400 model, it needs to be done either on a laptop or a computer. However, before any further troubleshooting may also start with the router, I do have to set your expectations that the current router is no longer in warranty. The warranty status of the device had expired around February 3 2025. It is no longer eligible for free troubleshooting on our end. But needless to say, all troubleshooting guides step-by-step that you might need to follow on how to set it back up.
