V2 Grader Summary

The agent accurately assessed warranty status and provided factually correct guidance, maintaining ownership without escalation. However, the call lacked systematic troubleshooting, tool use, and effective effort reduction, resulting in no resolution. The outcome was a partial resolution due to appropriate path selection but incomplete diagnostics.

V1 Case Analysis

Customer reports no internet on Linksys router after power cycles and factory reset. Warranty expired June 2023. Agent offered paid support; customer declined. Advised to test internet directly via modem using PlayStation console.

Troubleshooting Steps
  • Collected router serial number
  • Verified warranty expiration
  • Offered paid-support session
  • Advised direct modem test with gaming console
Key Observations
  • Agent skipped basic modem isolation steps (e.g., checking modem lights) before offering paid support
  • Router model was not confirmed despite serial number collection
  • Call contained silence periods and minimal empathy acknowledgment of customer frustration
  • Technical advice to test modem directly aligned with KB guidelines
Positive Highlights
  • Correctly identified warranty expiration and set clear expectations about paid support options
  • Provided a valid, KB-aligned next step (modem test with PlayStation) for customer self-help
  • Maintained polite tone and closed call professionally despite operational limitations
Agent Errors / Gaps
  • Failed to confirm router model before proceeding with diagnostics
  • Bypassed fundamental modem/router isolation steps before offering paid support
  • Moved immediately to paid-support offer without attempting available free troubleshooting paths
  • Did not acknowledge or address customer frustration during troubleshooting

V2 Indicator Ratings

Resolution
R1 Not Met Issue actually resolved conf 98%
Agent never confirmed resolution; issue remained 'no internet' with only a suggestion to check the modem, and call ended without verification.
R2 Partially Met Diagnostic thoroughness conf 93%
Agent asked about power cycle, factory reset, and ISP, and suggested connecting console to modem, but skipped key steps like checking WAN status, LED behavior, or router login.
R3 Met Correct resolution path conf 96%
Agent correctly identified expired warranty (June 2023) and offered appropriate options: paid troubleshooting or self-service, aligning with OOW best-effort standard.
Technical Accuracy
T1 Partially Met Technically accurate info conf 91%
Agent identified 'no internet' symptom and asked about ISP and resets, but did not probe WAN status, LED colors, or perform layered diagnostics to isolate root cause.
T2 Not Met Appropriate tools / resources used conf 94%
No tools used (e.g., remote access, router status page, speed test); relied solely on customer description despite need for WAN verification.
T3 Met No misinformation conf 97%
All technical info (plug-and-play setup, modem check, warranty expiry) was factually correct and consistent with KB articles.
Communication
C1 Partially Met Clear & professional language conf 89%
Agent introduced herself and collected info, but lacked clear call framing, had unexplained silences, and did not manage transitions or time expectations.
C2 Met Confirmed understanding conf 92%
Used plain language, repeated instructions clearly, and avoided jargon, adapting to customer’s level during technical guidance.
Customer Ownership
O1 Met Ownership & empathy conf 96%
Agent retained ownership throughout, did not transfer, and continued to assist despite OOW status and customer refusal of paid service.
O2 Partially Met Proactive follow-through conf 90%
Provided a next step (connect console to modem) but gave no timeline, follow-up plan, or callback commitment.
O3 Not Applicable Closure confirmation conf 100%
First contact; no prior case history or handoff context to maintain.
Escalation Judgment
E1 Met Correct escalation decision conf 95%
Correctly decided not to escalate—issue was within L1 scope (modem/router isolation) and could be triaged with basic steps.
E2 Not Applicable Escalation prep & handoff conf 100%
No escalation occurred and none was warranted; issue was manageable at L1 with further troubleshooting.
Customer Experience
X1 Partially Met Customer effort minimised conf 88%
Used polite phrases ('I understand', 'thank you') but did not explicitly acknowledge frustration or repeated effort.
X2 Partially Met Tone & rapport conf 87%
Maintained steady tone but did not adjust pace or style to customer’s confusion or urgency; communication remained one-size-fits-all.
X3 Not Met Overall experience conf 92%
Customer repeated serial number, was told no record, then asked for email/name—redundant data collection increased effort unnecessarily.

[silence] Yeah, I have, I unplugged the power for two minutes or more and then I unplugged the port while the power was still unplugged for more than like two minutes. I've done the factory reset of, you know, using the like a toothpick to hit the red factory reset button. And now I can't even connect to like the to-bee channel, you know, which would show like regular internet just for the TV itself.
03:00
Speaker 2
Understand. How about your first name and last name, to address you properly? All right, thank you, Jason. And while my system is checking the hardware warranty of your Lynx router, have you tried unplugging, like, perform boot-up sequence of your router and your modem? [ silence] I see. So have you been you performed actual troubleshooting?
03:00
Speaker 1
So I believe sonic net is the ISP but fastel is who we go through for like, you know, troubleshooting connection issues. Um, I don't. My Apple doesn't have that ability. I have like a playstation that I, you know, has the port.
04:00
Speaker 2
settings on the router. And and just to verify, may I know who's your internet service provider? All right. Got it. And do you have a computer that can connect using an Ethernet cable. Okay. Okay. Understand. And basically, going back to the hardware warranty of your linksys router, Jason, just to set your expectation, it's already expired. That was uh June of 2023. And to set your expectation, if you wish us to further troubleshoot your linksys router, we do have this $15. This will cost uh this is a troubleshooting session lasting for
04:00
Speaker 1
Yeah, I don't - no, I don't want to pay for any kind of service. I just thought I could call you guys for normal, uh, troubleshooting.
05:00
Speaker 2
one hour if we determine your device is defective and unable to resolve your issue, no refund or replacement will be given. Would you like to avail of this troubleshooting only? The plan is we can try to reset and reconfigure your links to router, check the port if it's detected properly, we can access its settings. If it still the same, no internet, the best route is to check your modem. You can use your playstation, connect it directly to the modem. Make sure the modem, the playstation itself can get online when connected directly to the modem. If not, then something's wrong with the internet box. Understand. Okay. This router is actually a plug and play. It should be able to get internet. So, my best recommendation is to check first the modem. [silence]
05:00
Speaker 1
Okay, yeah, I don't I don't believe there's I mean, unless the modem is what the you know, the home builder put in. Um, like I'm only using the router, not a And it shows No, that one goes the internet cable goes straight into the wall port and then the wall port connects downstairs in the garage, which is where I'm at now and the ethernet signal is flashing like a slow flash.
06:00
Speaker 2
Uh them. Um you MAT use your um GAME console connect it to the word and check if it can get online DIRECT to the modem. Um you he mean the ethernet cable coming from that internet port at the back of the Lynx router. It's direct it's connected to another box right? Okay. Okay understand you may if if your game console is near to that mouse roach you can actually disconnect.
06:00
Speaker 1
Okay, yeah, I'll I'll try that. I appreciate it. Oh no, that would be it. Thank you. Bye now.
07:00
Speaker 2
Connect the ethernet cable from that internet port of the Linksys router then connect directly your gaming console and check if it can get online. If not then you may need to check the internet box and call again your internet service provider. [silence] You're welcome. Anything else? Other concern for Linksys? All right this is this once again Rachel, Jayson and thank you for calling Linksys. Have a wonderful day. Bye bye.
