Transcript quality flagged: the ASR/quality-validation pipeline detected and excluded unreliable transcript segments from grading (2 hallucinated segments). Excluded from aggregate KPIs — treat remaining scores and transcript with caution.
Auto-Zero applied: Avoidance/Evasion — agent failed to perform basic troubleshooting, used no tools, provided hallucinated information (e.g., fake URL), and gave incoherent, off-topic responses instead of addressing the issue.

V2 Grader Summary

The customer self-resolved the issue, but the agent provided no effective support, used incorrect information, and demonstrated no control or technical accuracy. Despite the outcome, the agent failed in ownership and execution, resulting in an Ownership Gap classification. The auto-zero is upheld due to clear evasion of support duties and provision of hallucinated content.

V1 Case Analysis

Smart lock (DDL240X-1HW) failed to connect to 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi. Agent provided no structured troubleshooting, gave incorrect support URL (supportygdlynksis.com), and did not verify resolution. Customer reported success, but handling was operationally deficient.

Troubleshooting Steps
  • Asked if other devices were connected to the 2.4 GHz band.
  • Requested error message from the lock.
  • Suggested factory reset of the lock (customer had already done it).
Key Observations
  • Agent provided an incorrect support URL: 'supportygdlynksis.com' at [37:00], which is not a valid Linksys domain and could mislead the customer.
  • No structured troubleshooting steps were provided for connecting a 2.4 GHz-only IoT device (e.g., verify SSID/password, ensure 2.4 GHz band is enabled, disable band steering if needed).
  • Agent failed to verify resolution when the customer reported success at [35:00].
  • Call lacked control, with excessive filler words, long silences, and unrelated questions.
  • No warranty status or support eligibility discussion was conducted.
Positive Highlights

None recorded.

Agent Errors / Gaps
  • Provided a wrong and potentially misleading support URL (supportygdlynksis.com). This contradicts the KB, which specifies support.linksys.com as the correct support domain.
  • Failed to collect or confirm essential device information (serial number, firmware version, Wi-Fi password).
  • Did not follow a logical troubleshooting path or reference KB articles for IoT device setup (e.g., adjacent_smart_home_iot.md).
  • Gave no structured guidance for connecting a 2.4 GHz-only device (e.g., verify SSID, disable band steering, check for DFS interference).
  • Did not confirm resolution or validate that the smart lock was fully functional after connection.
  • Used excessive filler words ('uh', 'um', 'okay') and long silences, indicating poor call control.
  • Failed to create or cite a HappyFox case despite claiming to pull up a record.
  • Did not explain correct next steps or provide accurate self-help resources.

Agent asked vague, repetitive questions without structured troubleshooting; skipped basic checks like SSID/password verification or router settings.
