V2 Grader Summary

The agent violated OOW best-effort standards by skipping all L1 troubleshooting (no LED checks, power cycles, or connection verification) and immediately defaulting to self-help based solely on warranty status. Critical technical inaccuracies (malformed support URL) and failure to reduce customer effort (repeating email, no on-call guidance) compounded unresolved outcome. Auto-zero applied for Avoidance/Evasion per rubric.

V1 Case Analysis

Customer reported no Wi-Fi after Spectrum reset on EA8100V2. Agent incorrectly stated router was out of warranty, provided wrong support URL, and sent instructions to wrong email. No troubleshooting performed; issue unresolved.

Troubleshooting Steps
  • Collected model number and serial number.
  • Incorrectly stated router was out of warranty and end-of-life without verification.
  • Provided incorrect support URL (support.links.links.com).
  • Sent email with reset/reconfigure guides to incorrect email address.
Key Observations
  • Agent asserted out-of-warranty status without verification or lookup.
  • Provided invalid support URL 'support.links.links.com' — contradicts KB guidance.
  • Repeatedly stated and confirmed sending email to incorrect customer email address 'karlieoarrado12@gmail.com'.
  • No troubleshooting performed for Wi-Fi outage (e.g., power cycle, admin login, modem check).
  • EA8100V2 is a supported model under the EA Series KB card; agent's claim of end-of-life is incorrect.
Positive Highlights
  • Collected model number and serial number early in the call.
  • Maintained polite tone throughout the interaction.
Agent Errors / Gaps
  • Asserted out-of-warranty and end-of-life status without verification or KB support.
  • Provided incorrect support URL (support.links.links.com) — not listed in KB.
  • Spoke and sent email to incorrect customer email address (karlieoarrado12@gmail.com).
  • Failed to perform basic Wi-Fi outage troubleshooting (e.g., power cycle, admin access, modem check).
  • Incorrectly informed customer that no further support is available due to warranty status.

V2 Indicator Ratings

Resolution
R1 Not Met Issue actually resolved conf 98%
Agent sent generic reset instructions via email but did not confirm Wi-Fi restoration or verify resolution with customer; issue remained unresolved.
R2 Not Met Diagnostic thoroughness conf 99%
No diagnostic steps performed — agent skipped power cycle, LED status check, physical connection verification, and router login attempt; jumped directly to warranty status and self-help.
R3 Partially Met Correct resolution path conf 92%
Agent correctly identified EA8100V2 as out-of-warranty/EOL and offered self-help, but failed to attempt best-effort troubleshooting (e.g., factory reset guidance on call) before defaulting to KB resources.
Technical Accuracy
T1 Not Met Technically accurate info conf 98%
Agent did not ask probing questions about router symptoms, LED status, connection type, or perform any diagnostic questioning — jumped directly to warranty status and self-help.
T2 Not Met Appropriate tools / resources used conf 97%
No tools used: agent did not attempt remote access, check admin UI, verify WAN connection, or guide customer through login; relied solely on verbal description and warranty status.
T3 Not Met No misinformation conf 100%
Provided malformed support URL (support.links.links.com) contradicting authoritative KB (support.linksys.com), constituting materially incorrect technical guidance.
Communication
C1 Partially Met Clear & professional language conf 88%
Agent introduced themselves and structured next steps (sending email), but failed to set clear expectations, manage diagnostic flow transitions, or maintain control under customer's frustration.
C2 Partially Met Confirmed understanding conf 85%
Used simple language but did not adapt terminology to customer's evident frustration, verify understanding after instructions, or adjust communication style for urgency.
Customer Ownership
O1 Partially Met Ownership & empathy conf 87%
Agent remained on call and avoided transfer, but ownership ended with offloading resolution to self-help (email instructions) without resolving the issue or confirming next steps.
O2 Partially Met Proactive follow-through conf 86%
Provided next steps (check email, follow links) but gave no realistic timeline, follow-up commitment, or confirmation plan; left customer fully self-reliant without callback promise.
O3 Not Applicable Closure confirmation conf 100%
No prior case history referenced or available; agent confirmed this was a first contact with no existing tickets or notes to review.
Escalation Judgment
E1 Not Applicable Correct escalation decision conf 100%
No escalation performed and none was warranted — issue was within L1 scope but unresolved due to agent failure, not complexity beyond L1 capabilities.
E2 Not Applicable Escalation prep & handoff conf 100%
No escalation executed on this touch, and no escalation details were provided or required.
Customer Experience
X1 Partially Met Customer effort minimised conf 85%
Agent expressed politeness and thanked customer, but did not specifically acknowledge repeated effort with Spectrum, validate frustration, or demonstrate sincere empathy beyond scripted phrases.
X2 Partially Met Tone & rapport conf 82%
Maintained neutral tone but failed to adapt pace/style to customer's urgency; no active engagement, emotional mirroring, or comprehension checks during instruction delivery.
X3 Not Met Overall experience conf 96%
Customer repeated email address multiple times due to mispronunciation/typos; agent required full external action (email retrieval, link navigation) without on-call effort reduction (e.g., reading instructions verbatim, verifying connectivity steps live).
