V2 Grader Summary

The customer's internet was restored by the end of the call, confirming a successful resolution. However, the agent used an incorrect 5-press method on an SPNM device and failed to perform required modem diagnostics, resulting in technical inaccuracies and incomplete troubleshooting. Despite these flaws, the agent demonstrated strong ownership, empathy, and communication, and no escalation was warranted.

V1 Case Analysis

Customer had no internet on SPNMX56 router. Performed reset, incorrectly advised 5-press method. Internet restored after reset. No escalation needed.

Troubleshooting Steps
  • Verified LED status and asked about modem connection.
  • Guided customer through a factory reset (hold reset button ~25 s).
  • Incorrectly instructed a 5-press pairing method.
  • Helped customer reconnect Wi-Fi using SSID/password from router label.
Key Observations
  • Agent incorrectly instructed a 5-press pairing method on an SPNM series router, which is not supported — these models use the Pair button method or web interface (Instant Pair).
  • Agent misidentified LED behavior: SPNM series routers do not use purple as a normal state; solid blue indicates online status, and flashing red indicates no internet or disconnection.
  • Agent failed to follow proper ISP/modem isolation steps: did not instruct customer to test internet directly at the modem before troubleshooting the router.
  • Model and serial numbers were captured but not verified or used to confirm product family or correct troubleshooting path.
  • Despite procedural and technical errors, the factory reset resolved the issue, and the customer confirmed internet connectivity.
Positive Highlights
  • Displayed empathy and patience throughout the call, especially when customer expressed frustration with technology.
  • Persisted with the customer despite repeated confusion and eventually achieved internet connectivity.
  • Offered to email a screenshot of the router UI for future reference, providing additional self-help support.
Agent Errors / Gaps
  • Incorrectly instructed a 5-press reset/pairing method on an SPNM series router (not supported — only applicable to Intelligent Mesh models like WHW, MX, MR, MBE without dedicated Pair button).
  • Misidentified LED colors and meanings: SPNM series does not use purple as a valid LED state; solid blue = online, flashing red = no internet/disconnected (per universal_isp_modem_diagnostics.md and velop_wifi_connectivity.md).
  • Failed to verify WAN connection or test the modem directly — skipped Step 1 of universal_isp_modem_diagnostics.md which requires testing internet at the modem first.
  • Did not confirm product family before applying troubleshooting — SPNM series uses different pairing and LED logic than Intelligent Mesh models.
  • Provided incorrect access URL guidance: first said myrouter.info, then 192.168.1.1, creating confusion (SPNM series should use myrouter.info).

V2 Indicator Ratings

Resolution
R1 Met Issue actually resolved conf 98%
Customer confirms at 30:00: 'Yes, I am online... it's all working.' Issue resolved with internet restored.
R2 Partially Met Diagnostic thoroughness conf 90%
Agent performed factory reset and guided Wi-Fi reconnection, but skipped critical step: no instruction to test modem directly or power-cycle modem first per KB.
R3 Partially Met Correct resolution path conf 85%
Agent used 5-press on SPNM56 (incorrect per KB), but ultimately achieved resolution; path was flawed but not entirely inappropriate given outcome and lack of escalation despite complexity.
Technical Accuracy
T1 Partially Met Technically accurate info conf 90%
Agent identified red LED and no internet, asked about modem, but failed to isolate root cause via direct modem test; jumped to reset without full diagnosis.
T2 Not Met Appropriate tools / resources used conf 95%
Agent used 5-press (invalid for SPNM per universal_5press_models.md) and failed to use the required modem-direct test (universal_isp_modem_diagnostics.md) to isolate the source of the problem.
T3 Not Met No misinformation conf 98%
Agent provided materially incorrect guidance: instructed 5-press on an SPNM device (contradicted by universal_5press_models.md) and stated the LED should turn solid blue after reset (contradicted by led_intelligent_mesh_consumer.md, which states purple for ready for setup).
Communication
C1 Partially Met Clear & professional language conf 85%
Agent maintained general control and closed positively, but had multiple long silences, unclear transitions (e.g., sudden shift to email), and repetitive requests.
C2 Met Confirmed understanding conf 90%
Agent used simple language, acknowledged customer’s non-tech background, adapted by requesting screenshots, and stayed patient throughout.
Customer Ownership
O1 Met Ownership & empathy conf 98%
Agent owned the case end-to- end, did not transfer, and followed through on email request and troubleshooting steps.
O2 Partially Met Proactive follow-through conf 80%
Agent set action items (reset, take photos, email) but did not specify when or how follow-up would occur, leaving timeline ambiguous.
O3 Not Applicable Closure confirmation conf 100%
First contact; no prior history to reference or maintain.
Escalation Judgment
E1 Not Applicable Correct escalation decision conf 100%
No escalation occurred and none was warranted — issue was resolved during the call.
E2 Not Applicable Escalation prep & handoff conf 100%
No escalation occurred; therefore execution cannot be assessed.
Customer Experience
X1 Met Customer effort minimised conf 95%
Agent repeatedly expressed empathy: 'No worries,' 'I appreciate your time and patience,' and validated customer’s effort.
X2 Met Tone & rapport conf 90%
Agent matched customer’s pace, used calm tone, checked in frequently, and adjusted approach (e.g., switching to email) when customer struggled.
X3 Partially Met Overall experience conf 80%
Agent asked customer to take multiple photos and send via email — extra steps — but this was likely necessary due to inability to access local UI remotely.

28:00
Speaker 1
No. Uh-huh. But I've just- I've just gone back onto the settings, um, and onto, um, the Wi-Fi and community fiber, and it's now not saying that I've got no internet, so. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Okay. What- what- yeah, what's the, the best way, sorry, while I'm on my phone, what's the best way to check whether I've got.
29:00
Speaker 2
Okay, yeah. All right, so yes, you, so you don't have that option to access local. Yes, all right. That's fine ma'am. Mhm. Okay. Can you check if the internet is working? Shoot, because maybe earlier, remember, when we checked the the lights on your uh, on your community fiber modem, there are only two lights lit up. So maybe, yeah, you weren't getting a signal from them. That's why the Linksys is uh, not working because this, the Linksys router relies on your modem connection, ma'am.
29:00
Speaker 1
internet, whether I've got... OK. This... Oh my God, you are amazing. Yes, I am online. OK. Yeah. Yeah. It's all working. Oh my God, you're an angel. Thank you, I'm so... I'm just trying to watch a football... [silence] Transcription No speech during this interval. [silence]
