V2 Grader Summary

The agent failed to resolve the customer's inability to access the router, skipped essential troubleshooting steps, and violated OOW best-effort policy by offering only paid support or an email. Communication was unclear and repetitive, resulting in no meaningful progress. The case remains unresolved due to lack of technical intervention and ownership.

V1 Case Analysis

Customer unable to access router admin page (myrouter.local) — sees 'Your router was not successfully set up' message. Agent did not perform power cycle, factory reset, or wired access test. Collected serial number and email, offered $15 paid support and router upgrade (~$6000). Promised to email troubleshooting steps. No fix achieved.

Troubleshooting Steps
  • Asked whether the reset button had been pressed
  • Requested the serial number
  • Suggested opening http://myrouter.local in a browser
Key Observations
  • Agent failed to perform basic troubleshooting (power cycle, Ethernet access, factory reset) before offering paid support.
  • Agent provided materially incorrect technical advice: claimed no firmware updates available and falsely suggested modem incompatibility due to 'Wi-Fi 7'.
  • Agent prematurely upsold a $6000 router upgrade without diagnosing the actual issue.
  • Agent did not collect the router model number, which is essential for accurate support.
  • Agent correctly collected customer name and email for follow-up and acknowledged warranty status.
Positive Highlights
  • Polite and professional greeting.
  • Collected serial number, customer name, and email for follow-up.
  • Correctly identified that the customer was connected to the router's Wi-Fi network.
Agent Errors / Gaps
  • Failed to guide the customer through standard router login troubleshooting (power cycle, Ethernet test, factory reset).
  • Provided factually incorrect information: claimed the router has no firmware updates — all Linksys routers receive updates as long as they are supported, regardless of warranty status.
  • Made a false technical claim: suggested the router cannot work with a 'Verizon Wi-Fi 7 modem' — modems do not have Wi-Fi; this reflects a fundamental misunderstanding of networking topology.
  • Offered paid support and an upgrade program before attempting any technical resolution.
  • Did not collect or confirm the router model, which is needed for accurate guidance.
  • Did not verify if the customer was accessing the router via wired connection, which is more reliable for admin access.
  • Incorrectly directed the customer to linksyssmartwifi.com instead of the local admin URL (myrouter.local or 192.168.1.1).

Speaker 2
age locally dot local do they have is there an option their like log in locally access log in there's nothing okay [silence] Okay. All right. Yeah. Sure, not a problem. Uh, before we proceed and troubleshoot your device, sir, is this the first time you call Linksys? Okay. All right. If that's the case, sir, I'm going to create a new records for you since we've changed our case management tool a year ago as well. Uh may I know your first name and last name? Uh can you spell your last name for me, sir? That's r bar right? Right. How about your email address, sir? No, sir. We don't have any record of you since we've changed our case management tool. got it. Who's your internet service provider, sir? Okay. Bye. like uh cer I was able to create a record for you in the system however based on your records here um the warranty of your product has already been expired and just to set proper expectation that we no longer provide free technical assistance for out of warranty devices uh to answer your your question sir the uh what's going on why will it work yesterday or the other day however the day and and as before it did not work is one of the reasons there this kind of router does not have any more uh firmware updates now it's very important to have a firmware updates because it will uh it will not have a conflict between the router and the modem that you have now just to set proper expectation again uh the router that you have is part of our first generation routers meaning to say um for this cost it's already cheaper and other manufacture offered firmware it so it's expected that there will be a fault also uh as working our previous and most know but aside from that it's also one of the most popular router that we have as a quality and one of the buyers would like to purchase um so one of the practical solution that we could advise you is to upgrade your router to like just like we call it as part of our upgrade program so this is very current router system and firmware and also and often we release firmware uh right away for a recent brand so that it will be tolerant to damages in the future um what I could say is the price for this router and this kind of router is like average of 6000 just to upgrade your current router to this kind uh like recent router and basically they're still basically the same however the upgrade that we're selling is compatible uh to modern modem right away [silence]
07:00
Speaker 1
I have a question before.
11:00
Speaker 2
kind of router, you might experience some kind of conflict because the router is just Wi-Fi 5 capable. However, Verizon modem is already Wi-Fi 7. Now, again for out of warranty devices, uh we no longer provide technical assistance but we do have two options for you. If you still wanted to use this router, we can still provide you one-time phone support lasting for 60 minutes but there would be a fee for the troubleshooting and that's $15. If you don't want to pay $15 for the troubleshooting, S: Go ahead. Customer: Yes, sir. There is no more update for the firmware that you have for your router. S: [silence]
11:00
Speaker 1
Okay, so what's the other option? Mm-hmm.
12:00
Speaker 2
The other option, if you still really wanted to pursue using this router, uh, for free, I can only send you an email and how you can possibly troubleshoot your device so that you can connect it back to your network. then again, that's not a guarantee that the troubleshooting will work. Is that okay with you through email? Okay. I'm sorry, has what sir? Or Oh
12:00
Speaker 1
Oh, okay.
13:00
Speaker 2
No sir. No sir. We can guarantee you sir the security of our linkage devices router that no one can access your account unless you have the access to your connectivity cuz even if let's say for example, even if your outside your home and you wanted to access your router settings you cannot log in anymore using email and password. So you can only log in using your router password and you should be connected directly to your router's Wi-Fi. So if someone is trying to access your uh your router setting, change something in your settings. We assure you that they cannot connect there.
13:00
Speaker 1
has no password, so that's why I was like, oh, maybe somebody opened my, you know, account or did something to it. Okay, I got it. Okay, just send me an email for to know to see how it's going to work. Okay. Repeat the first four letter B as in boy, E as in Edward, R as Romeo, O as in Oscar, is it right? Yes. .sy@hotmail.com. Got it. Yeah. Thank you so much. Thank you so much. [silence]
14:00
Speaker 2
[silence]
14:00
Speaker 1
No, I'm good. Thank you so much for your help. Thank you. You too. Bye bye.
15:00
Speaker 2
Thank you so much as Walter for your time, and again, this is Rio from linked technical support, you have a nice day, sir, bye bye for now. Bye.
