V2 Grader Summary

The agent failed to resolve the forgotten password issue by not guiding the customer through the required factory reset procedure, which is the only supported method per KB. Instead, they collected data and promised an unverified email, abandoning the case. No troubleshooting was completed, ownership was absent, and customer effort was increased. This constitutes Avoidance/Evasion (B), triggering auto-zero. The outcome is Unresolved due to no progress on R1 or R2.

V1 Case Analysis

Customer unable to access router admin page; password not accepted. Agent gathered serial, name, email, and model (A1800R), asked about URLs tried (192.168.1.1, myrouter.local), but did not provide password-recovery steps. Promised to email instructions.

Troubleshooting Steps
  • Collected serial number
  • Confirmed model number A1800R
  • Collected customer name and email address
  • Asked which URLs were attempted (192.168.1.1, myrouter.local)
  • Asked if 'admin' was tried as password
Key Observations
  • Agent did not follow the Linksys password-recovery process (five-digit recovery key) as documented in the KB.
  • No concrete troubleshooting was performed beyond gathering contact and device information.
  • Agent gave vague statements and did not confirm the customer's error page or login stage.
  • The model A1800R is part of the EA Series, which supports the five-digit recovery key method for password reset.
Positive Highlights
  • Collected serial number and confirmed the customer's email address.
  • Confirmed model number A1800R with the customer.
  • Asked whether 'admin' was tried as a password, showing awareness of default credentials.
  • Asked which URLs were attempted, demonstrating basic troubleshooting awareness.
Agent Errors / Gaps
  • Failed to offer the non-destructive password reset using the five-digit recovery key, which is the correct procedure for EA Series routers.
  • Did not provide the correct local admin URL or direct UI link for password recovery.
  • Lack of empathy and insufficient clarification of the customer's error page or login issue.
  • Did not confirm the exact error message or UI state, which could have guided troubleshooting.

V2 Indicator Ratings

Resolution
R1 Not Met Issue actually resolved conf 98%
Agent offered to email information but did not resolve the password issue or guide the customer through a factory reset, which is the only solution per KB.

Agent confirmed use of default 'admin' password and asked about access method, but did not proceed to the required troubleshooting step: factory reset.

Agent identified symptom (cannot log in) and asked relevant questions (URL used, password tried), but did not determine root cause or next action.

Agent correctly mentioned 'admin' as default password, but failed to provide the accurate next step: factory reset for password recovery.

First contact; no prior case history to reference or maintain.
