V2 Grader Summary

The agent attempted basic troubleshooting (reset, power‑cycle, cable check) but gave inaccurate reset instructions and failed to achieve a working internet connection. While ownership and next‑step planning were adequate, the call lacked clear structure, empathy, and accurate technical guidance, leaving the issue unresolved.

V1 Case Analysis

Customer reported no internet on MR6350 router. Agent provided incorrect 5-press pairing and factory reset instructions. No resolution achieved; customer to receive email with further steps.

Troubleshooting Steps
  • Asked about LED colors on the router.
  • Instructed to press the reset button five times (5-press pairing).
  • Suggested power-cycling the router and fiber modem.
  • Advised a full factory reset with incorrect steps and promised an email with further instructions.
Key Observations
  • Agent incorrectly applied the 5-press pairing method, which is only for mesh systems (MX, WHW, MR mesh), not standalone routers like the MR6350 (per adjacent_device_setup_scenarios.md and universal_factory_reset.md).
  • Agent described non-standard LED colors (magenta/pink) not documented for MR6350; standard colors are solid white/blue for ready, blinking white for booting, solid red for error (per universal_factory_reset.md).
  • Agent combined a factory reset with a 5-press sequence, creating an unsupported and potentially harmful procedure not documented in any KB.
  • No proper WAN troubleshooting was performed (e.g., checking modem signal, direct Ethernet test, or web UI login at http://192.168.1.1 or myrouter.local).
  • Agent failed to verify the customer's email address before promising to send instructions.
Positive Highlights
  • Collected the correct model number (MR6350) and serial number from the customer.
  • Correctly identified the out-of-warranty status and set appropriate expectations about hardware replacement limitations.
  • Attempted to guide the customer through a power cycle of both router and modem.
Agent Errors / Gaps
  • Provided incorrect reset method (5-press pairing) for a standalone MR6350 router — this method is only for mesh node pairing, not standalone routers (per adjacent_device_setup_scenarios.md and universal_factory_reset.md).
  • Misidentified LED colors (magenta/pink) — MR6350 uses white/blue/red only (per universal_factory_reset.md and product specs).
  • Gave a hybrid and incorrect factory reset procedure: 'press reset 30 seconds, then 5-press' — this is not a documented or valid process for any Linksys router.
  • Failed to verify that the Ethernet WAN cable was properly connected to the modem or check modem status.
  • Did not create or reference a case/ticket number.
  • Did not confirm the customer's email address before promising to send information.
  • Did not follow standard router-setup troubleshooting flow: no modem check, no WAN status verification, no login to web UI (http://192.168.1.1 or myrouter.local).
  • Misled the customer by claiming the router would have internet after the 5-press sequence — this is false for a standalone router with no WAN signal.

V2 Indicator Ratings

Resolution
R1 Not Met Issue actually resolved conf 95%
Customer never confirmed internet connectivity; router remained blinking red/white and no solid blue was achieved.
R2 Partially Met Diagnostic thoroughness conf 85%
Agent performed some steps (reset button, power‑cycle modem, check cable) but the troubleshooting flow was disorganized and incomplete.
R3 Met Correct resolution path conf 90%
Agent acknowledged out‑of‑warranty status, refused replacement, and proceeded to troubleshoot the setup.
Technical Accuracy
T1 Partially Met Technically accurate info conf 80%
Agent identified symptoms (no internet, light colors) and asked about ISP and cable, but missed key diagnostic questions (WAN status, IP address, DHCP).
T2 Met Appropriate tools / resources used conf 90%
No remote tools were needed for this basic setup issue; the agent used only verbal instructions, which was appropriate.
T3 Not Met No misinformation conf 90%
Agent instructed a “press and release five times” reset, which is the 5‑press pairing method, not a proper factory reset for the MR6350; also gave confusing “turn it upside down” direction.
Communication
C1 Not Met Clear & professional language conf 85%
Call lacked clear framing, many long silences, and abrupt topic changes; agent did not maintain a structured flow.
C2 Not Met Confirmed understanding conf 85%
Agent used vague language, jokes, and did not verify the customer’s understanding at key steps.
Customer Ownership
O1 Met Ownership & empathy conf 90%
Agent stayed on the call, performed troubleshooting, and did not transfer the customer elsewhere.
O2 Met Proactive follow-through conf 85%
Agent gave next‑step instructions (wait ~35 minutes, send follow‑up email) and set a timeline for the reset.
O3 Not Applicable Closure confirmation conf 100%
This was the first interaction; no prior case history to reference.
Escalation Judgment
E1 Not Applicable Correct escalation decision conf 100%
No escalation was performed and none was clearly required based on the agent’s attempts.
E2 Not Applicable Escalation prep & handoff conf 100%
No escalation occurred, so execution cannot be assessed.

you're having an issue with your Fiber. It's not giving a signal to the modem. It's a normal thing. It happens. The same, normal thing that we did if you cannot reach us. Factory reset.

Factory reset, press run 30 seconds and then after that, when it becomes pink, press present release one press per second five times. It'll turn blue. If it turns blue, you are in the internet. Your Wi-Fi will be the default Wi-Fi name and you have internet. And then call us to change it to whatever Wi-Fi name but I will send you the email. all right? So that you can have it. Okay.
