V2 Grader Summary

The agent collected basic device info and suggested a power cycle but never performed essential diagnostics (speed test, wired test, signal check) and gave incorrect password guidance. No resolution was achieved, no escalation was offered despite the issue persisting, and the agent showed little ownership or call control. Consequently, the call ends with an ownership gap.

V1 Case Analysis

Customer experiencing buffering on GigaClear-provided SPN MX55 mesh; agent collected serial, suggested power-cycle and incorrect default password 'admin'. No WAN speed test or LED status verification performed. Issue unresolved.

Troubleshooting Steps
  • Collected model, serial number, and contact details
  • Asked about topology and wall-port connection
  • Suggested power-cycling the SPN MX55 node
  • Provided incorrect default router password 'admin' (not applicable to SPNM series)
Key Observations
  • Agent failed to perform the critical ISP/modem speed test isolation step to rule out upstream issues.
  • Agent incorrectly advised using 'admin' as the default password for SPNM series routers (KB: SPNM series uses different defaults).
  • Agent misinterpreted the Linksys app's restart prompt as something to avoid, rather than a potential escalation path via the Pair button (KB: SPNM6x uses Pair button for escalation).
  • No verification of WAN port speed or router dashboard status was attempted at http://myrouter.info.
  • Call ended without confirming whether the power-cycle resolved the issue or establishing a clear follow-up path.
Positive Highlights
  • Collected essential product information (model, serial, contact details) early in the call.
  • Correctly identified the solid blue LED as indicating the node is online (though did not explicitly reference KB).
Agent Errors / Gaps
  • Incorrect technical advice: SPNM series routers (SPN MX55) do not use 'admin' as the default admin password; this is contradicted by the KB (universal_escalation_guide.md notes SPNM6x uses myrouter.info and different defaults).
  • Missing core troubleshooting: no direct modem speed test, no check of WAN port speed in router dashboard at http://myrouter.info, no verification of actual internet connectivity beyond app status.
  • Misinterpretation of app behavior: the 'restart your network' prompt in the Linksys app is a standard recovery option for SPNM series, not something to avoid; agent missed an opportunity to guide customer through proper escalation via Pair button (KB: SPNM6x uses Pair button, not 5-press).
  • No clear confirmation of issue resolution or next-step agreement.
  • Lack of empathy and recap; long silences without explanation.

V2 Indicator Ratings

Resolution
R1 Not Met Issue actually resolved conf 99%
The buffering issue persisted through the call; no resolution, RMA, escalation, or customer education was provided.
R2 Partially Met Diagnostic thoroughness conf 96%
Agent gathered serial number, LED status, and attempted a power cycle, but skipped key diagnostics like speed test, wired vs. wireless comparison, and signal strength check.
R3 Partially Met Correct resolution path conf 94%
Agent attempted basic troubleshooting (power cycle) but failed to confirm warranty status or determine if ISP should be contacted first for a gateway-level issue; path was incomplete.
Technical Accuracy
T1 Partially Met Technically accurate info conf 93%
Agent identified buffering and asked about model/serial and LED status, but missed logical follow-ups like speed test, wired baseline, or Wi-Fi signal analysis.
T2 Not Met Appropriate tools / resources used conf 98%
No diagnostic tools (speed test, router UI, logs, remote session) were used despite the issue requiring them; agent relied solely on customer description.
T3 Not Met No misinformation conf 99%
Agent incorrectly advised default admin password as 'admin' for SPNM55 node; KB confirms default is Wi-Fi password on sticker, not 'admin'.
Communication
C1 Not Met Clear & professional language conf 94%
Long silences, abrupt topic shifts (e.g., from serial to password), and no clear agenda or expectation setting showed poor call control.
C2 Not Met Confirmed understanding conf 91%
Agent used technical terms like 'LAN port', 'solid green', and 'router password' without confirming understanding or simplifying for a non-technical caller.
Customer Ownership
O1 Not Met Ownership & empathy conf 95%
Agent gathered information and initiated a case but ultimately handed the issue back to the customer without taking ownership or following through.
O2 Not Met Proactive follow-through conf 96%
Only a vague power-cycle suggestion was given; no timeline, next steps, or follow-up commitment was established.
O3 Not Applicable Closure confirmation conf 100%
Customer confirmed this was the first call to Linksys; no prior case history exists to reference or handoff.
Escalation Judgment
E1 Not Met Correct escalation decision conf 97%
Issue remained unresolved after basic steps; warranted escalation (good modem speed but poor WiFi) was not offered despite being appropriate.
E2 Not Met Escalation prep & handoff conf 97%
No escalation occurred, so execution criteria (correct team, details, customer notification) were not met.
Customer Experience
X1 Partially Met Customer effort minimised conf 90%
Agent said 'sorry to hear' but did not acknowledge repeated failures, history since installation, or emotional toll; empathy was minimal and generic.
X2 Not Met Tone & rapport conf 94%
Agent maintained rigid script pace despite customer delays and confusion; did not check comprehension after key instructions like password entry or app login.
X3 Not Met Overall experience conf 97%
Customer repeated serial number, Wi-Fi name, and problem description multiple times; agent failed to use already-provided information efficiently.

Hiya, we've got issues with our gigaclear router. It just buffers all the time, even though a speed test says that it's functioning how it should. I'm literally stood next to it, and it just will, even like YouTube. It just struggles to even load anything. I've got two WiFi's, so I have to connect to my old WiFi, because this one's just redundant.[silence]

01:00
Speaker 2
Oh, that's the other brand of routers. Sky. Oh, sorry to hear about it, sir. So your internet service provider is gigacl three, and then you have two different branches of routers connecting to the gigaclear modem at the same time. Oh you have separate modem. Oh, one is from gigaclear, and one is from sky. [silence]
01:00
Speaker 1
Yeah. Yeah. It's actually one that was already connected to the house. When GigaClear come, they put a completely new modem in, which connects through that new modem that they put through the wall. So, that's completely separate to the Sky. It is uh, SPN.
02:00
Speaker 2
I'm not mistaken, sir. That's Sky is a internet service provider? Oh, so you have two internet service provider. So Sky. So for this Sky ISP, what's the model of the router that you are using for Sky? Oh, so that's totally for Sky. So you are connecting to the Sky and it's working, but from Giga Clear it's not. So what's the model number of the router that's connected to the Giga Clear media? [silence]
02:00
Speaker 1
yep uh... well they sent two yep they sort of they said they said they were sending a booster but they've sent two exact modems yep that's it it's it's what's on the bottom of the um the route the the model the wide whatever it is uh... yep
03:00
Speaker 2
Okay, SPN MX55 and this router was bundled by GridClear and how many SPN MX55 you have? Two, okay. And how long? Oh, this is actually not, are you referring to SPN MX55 as modem? Oh, the white device. Oh, the white device. Actually, sir, so that we will not be confused, can you please, um, If [silence]
03:00
Speaker 1
Yeah. Yeah. well we've had it about a year, but luckily because we've got the sky one, it it's just it's just been, it's been useless since day one. uh, the company that come out and fit the the router. uh, they're all green. everything's green. So on top of the on the
04:00
Speaker 2
SP and MX 55. That's the node, okay? And your modem is different. modem is the device from clear. The modem is the source of the internet. Okay? So you have SPM and X 55. How long have you been using this SPM and X? Oh, and who set it up? This is PN MX 55. What's the light indicator on the SPM MX right now? SPM MX. What's the light indicator? Solid green, okay?
04:00
Speaker 1
the, the top of the white, um, actual Wi-Fi thing is blue, but all the lights on the router are all green, so it says, it says that the 10, it says 10 G E green, optical green, power green, now the light on top of the thing is blue. Yeah. Yep. Uh, the other one's still in box, because there's no.
05:00
Speaker 2
Okay. Mm-hmm. The light on top. Okay. And since you have two SPN, MX 55, sir. One is directly wired to the gig clear mom, right? And the light is solid green. How about the other one? Because you mentioned that you have two two pieces.
05:00
Speaker 1
point plug another one in if this one's crap I've tried doing it through app, but it just keeps on saying, we've helped you as much as we can. So 07 181 62 991 [silence]
06:00
Speaker 2
okay let's let's check why uh you said it's just buffering when you access YouTube okay uh sir before we check on the nodes the SPNMx may I ask uh is this is your first time calling Linksys okay uh okay so this is your first time calling us how about this one sir allow me first to gather uh some of your information to create your case on the system okay so so let's start right away with your phone number so if in case the call will get uh disconnected then I can call you uh-huh uh-huh uh-huh okay so so it's oh
06:00
Speaker 1
Yeah. It's Ben. that's it. Yeah. R-E-N-S-H-A-W. Yeah, that's right. It's Ben at, and it's Validate consulting. So it's V-A-L-i-d-a-t-e, consulting.com.

Okay. Which one then email address?
07:00
Speaker 1
Gee, that was consulting with a G on and dotcom. Yep, dotcom. Yep. Okay. Um, I'll just have to take it out. Um, it's connected to the wall. So I think it just lifts out.
08:00
Speaker 2
seek of Soloti C-O-N-S-U-L-T I N. Uh. Sorry, it's Ben at validate consulting. Okay, so Ben at validate consulting.com. Right. Okay. Uh. Sir, can you provide to me the serial number of uh let's say the main node?
08:00
Speaker 1
All right, it's it, it's the, um, serial number is AB, it's, uh, add, uh, let's see, DTN, uh, two, four one, eight
09:00
Speaker 2
Uh-huh. I mean, the serial number of the SPNM and
09:00
Speaker 1
Out. Out. Not not on the the the actual modem. Uh, serial number is 55 B1OM25E0408. Yep. Yep. [silence]
10:00
Speaker 2
[silence] [silence] f 35 for Victor, one-zero and four Mike two five Echo 0408. Okay, let me check the serial number. Stay on the line. Thank you, sir. hi yes sir thank you for patiently waiting so let's uh check the connection here um need to like ask for the topology like how you set it up or how did you connect it to the modem so uh you mentioned earlier that this is connected to like a wall port uh so connected to a wall port and this wall port goes straight to the modem uh see so to clarify the the spmx which is the parent node is directly connected to a wall port and then wall port is connected to the gigaclear modem
10:00
Speaker 1
Yep. Yep, it's what they installed. Um, so they put like a, a new, new line across, um, to the, um, telephone cable and then connected a wall box, a white wall box with the green lights on that, um, it connects to, which, uh, which say it's got all the green lights to say everything's as it should be. Yep. Um, um,
12:00
Speaker 2
uh huh yes sir so it's been like a year that you are experiencing this so we should really check into this uh connection cuz the parent node is connected to a wall port and then wall port is connected to the modem the modem from giga clear sir has how many land ports uh is it land line or your
12:00
Speaker 1
Yeah, it's got one, yeah. Yeah, it's, it's, it's linking to it. The the light on the gigaclear is blue. The light on the things are blue. It, it, it, it picks up, it picks up the, Wi-Fi on his phone to say it's there and it'll connect to it, but then trying, so it connects to a, gigaclear Wi-Fi, but then when you try and, put YouTube on, it just, it's, it's just like circling all the time.
13:00
Speaker 2
Your modem has four ports? That modem, Lan 1 or port 1 is port 1 blinking. [silence] Okay, so we should really check, look into it. Okay. Uh and actually, to isolate it right away, we will to check
13:00
Speaker 1
No, no, it's, it's, it's, it's like, um, a laptop that doesn't have, um, a LAN, and I, I have office meetings, so I can't connect to, uh, uh, through Zoom, I can't connect a long, um, ethernet to it, because that's not, that's not what you buy it for, is it? You buy it for a Wi-Fi, not, not to be connected to a, a port. I'm not an office, I'm at home.
14:00
Speaker 2
If that wall port is really working or not, sir, is to directly wired, a laptop or a computer straight to the LAN. So my question, do you have a laptop with a LAN, with a, can we use Ethernet cable? sorry. Exactly. Yeah, exactly, sir. because actually, because we really need to fix this one. So to isolate, it's best to have okay, a laptop with a LAN. But since there's none, so we'll just.[silence]
14:00
Speaker 1
default um u have the narrow um I've got serial numbers to stuff and the Wi-Fi name is called um Wi-Fi so it says it's gigaclear B 748 which it says it's gotta
15:00
Speaker 2
And so you that the light indicator on the node on the parent node is solid, green. check, uh, kindly, hmm, sir, kindly check what's the default Wi-Fi of the node, it's at the bottom, sir. it's at the bottom. There's Wi-Fi name right there.
15:00
Speaker 1
it says Wi-Fi shows up full signal with a six next to it, so it's showing there's no Wi-Fi but then when you connect to it, it's showing that there's no Wi-Fi but then it just doesn't do anything, yeah just don't do anything. Yup it's B748. Android. No.
16:00
Speaker 2
The name is giga clear underscore, can you repeat, sir? [silence] Kindly repeat. [silence] Okay, B-748 and your phone, the one that you are using is that iPhone or is that android? [silence] Okay. So, this is actually the default Wi-Fi of the parent, giga clear underscore, but did you already customized the name? Did you like create your own Wi-Fi name? [silence]
16:00
Speaker 1
嗯 是的, 这是 在我的 Wi-Fi 上可用的网络 你看, 我要连接到它 一会儿, 连接了 没有, 没有, 如果你没有自定义它, 它与 白色 长方形 下面 现有的一样 我只需输入密码 看
17:00
Speaker 2
Okay, kindly check if this GigaClear b7 is broadcasting on your Android phone, sir. So your phone is connected. Yes. Okay. How about how about your password did you already customize? [ sounds ] Okay. So make sure that your phone is connected to this default name, to this name, sir. [ sounds ]
17:00
Speaker 1
Right, it's connected. Yeah, yeah, it's still buffering. YouTube and then you click on a video and it just it circles for a bit and then it like, it just, it just like pauses it. So it started video then it circles and then it starts again and this was just the advert at the start before YouTube.
18:00
Speaker 2
Okay. and then try to, for example, open YouTube on your phone or any application. What website you open? and website you cannot access? Any website you open? By the way,
18:00
Speaker 1
and I'm, I'm, I'm literally like I'm right next to it. Yeah. Yeah. Again, it's just, it's just like so slow. It's not even opening it up yet.
19:00
Speaker 2
Okay, so it's not. and you have the linksys application sir? Okay, kindly open the linksys app. And when you log in to the linksys application, sir, just choose to log in using the router password.
19:00
Speaker 1
Yeah. No, still not opening it up. I've he took our thing to him all. Right, alright, sir. No, it must be upstairs. No, hello, hello. Sorry. Yeah, no, it's still, it's still same. It's like, it's like trying to open it, but. Bear with me a sec. [silence]
20:00
Speaker 2
You cannot open the Linksys application? It's not opening. Uh, like on your phone,Sir, it can, it can't open again. You can close the Linksys app, like force close it, like quit the app and then open again. mhm, . mhm, okay., . okay, so, enter the router password, . and router password is different from the Wi-Fi password, . so, do you happen to remember your router password?, . [silence] mhm, . [silence]
20:00
Speaker 1
He doesn't say like I'm Yeah. Yeah. Right. It's just not letting me like it's jumping so long to type. Do you know like when you type something and it takes a just put a word in.
22:00
Speaker 2
Okay. Try using the default router password, which is, admin all in lower case. Admin. By the way, sir. You currently use this. Let me know if you cannot if it's incorrect. All right. So, what's up? So, say that in support. It's taking time. Because, if admin is that, the if you customize.
22:00
Speaker 1
It just says, "We've encountered a problem. Please use the button below to restart your network. Once your network is back online, we'll try and fix the problem for you." "Uh, it's just saying, 'Restart,' restarting."
23:00
Speaker 2
the router password the root password before so it might not be the right password Do not restart. Do not restart. Do don't restart. Okay. So can you go back to the previous page? Okay. So let's just power cycle the Notecher, the SPN MX. There's a power switch at the bottom. You can just power it off and then give it like five seconds then power it back on.
23:00
