V2 Grader Summary

The agent failed to provide accurate support for an out-of-warranty device, incorrectly cited a $15 fee, offered only generic troubleshooting, and disengaged without resolution. Despite correct non-escalation, the handling violated core policies on best-effort support and customer ownership, resulting in an unresolved outcome with avoidance behavior triggering auto-zero.

V1 Case Analysis

Customer unable to connect new computer to Wi-Fi; other devices work. Agent suggested Ethernet test and password change, noted warranty expired, offered paid support. No validation of steps performed.

Troubleshooting Steps
  • Advised wired Ethernet connection test
  • Suggested changing Wi-Fi password
  • Provided warranty status and self-help resources
Key Observations
  • Agent did not verify whether the Ethernet test succeeded or check router status lights.
  • Warranty expiration was stated without any lookup or confirmation.
  • Password change was suggested without confirming the current Wi-Fi password or guiding the customer through the change process.
  • No model-specific guidance provided (e.g., accessing router interface to check client list or Wi-Fi settings).
  • Paid support offered after stating warranty expired, but no technical contradiction found in advice.
Positive Highlights
  • Agent was polite and used the customer's name.
  • Provided clear, simple next-step options (wired test, password change).
  • Directed the customer to the official support website for self-help resources.
Agent Errors / Gaps
  • Incorrectly claimed warranty expired without verification.
  • Failed to confirm or obtain the Wi-Fi password before recommending a change.
  • Did not validate the result of the Ethernet connection test.
  • Did not guide the customer to access the router's web interface to check client list or wireless settings.
  • Did not verify if the new computer could detect the Wi-Fi network before suggesting a password change.

01:00
Speaker 2
Kindly call back later. For out of warranty product, paid support option may be available depending on the issue. Hi, thank you for calling Linksys. My name is Ven. How may I help you today? Mhm. Mhm. Mhm. Mhm. Mhm. Just to repeat, was it 2 9 B like Boy or V like Victor? Allah right, 2 9 Victor, 1 1 mary.
01:00
Speaker 1
I believe so. 1201, um, sorry. Okay. Is that the model number? Yeah, that's where I'm looking. I can't, okay. Yeah.
02:00
Speaker 2
what's the model of the router?
02:00
Speaker 1
My old computer still is on there, but I just, it won't take, but I don't know why I can't see a model number on here. Or is this it up here? This might be it. MR Godbee, I can't read for the darn here. I can't see. Just a second. I'll try a different pair of glasses here. That's the print so small on the back here. Okay. Marlin 8 300 V11.
03:00
Speaker 2
Thank you so much. Yes, that's correct. All right. Before we further troubleshooting may also start, can I ask, is this your first time calling? Since this is your first time calling, I'll just have to gather some quick information so I can create a record on our end. Can I have your first and last name? I'm sorry, how do you spell it? I guess Lee? Thank you so much. Gary GA R R Y I gave Lee AIC H E L E. What about the email address?

Speaker 2
Was it G.J. at beak T.L.com? And the phone number that you're currently calling, is it 7 0 1 0 2 2 0 1 7 7 6? Lastly, main notes the Internet provider. Thank you so much. Let me quickly double check everything in my end. [silence]
05:00
Speaker 1
Mm-hmm. Nope. I, all I did was I unplugged the power to the router once and then powered it back up, that's all that I've tried to do.
06:00
Speaker 2
Alright, thank you so much for patiently waiting, uh Susan Gary. In terms of the current problem, as you mentioned, all other devices seems to be connecting apart from the new computer. What kind of changes have you done so far as well? Like, have you done some changes on the router, or what kind of steps did you try to let the computer try to connect? [silence] Mhm, mhm. mhm. Mhm. Alright. Alright. Thank you so much for that one. So currently, you have two options to at least try and connect the computer to your network. The first one is for the new computer, try hard wiring it directly from the router into your new computer using an ethernet cable and then try connecting via Wi-Fi. [silence]
06:00
Speaker 1
okay so, what do I use for an internet connection? I mean, I, I don't know. I'm not very computer savvy. Is that these blue ones? [silence]
07:00
Speaker 2
However, if it still would not connect with a wired connection, the last option is to consider changing the password to a different one instead to make sure that other devices and the new computer can also connect with the new password.
07:00
Speaker 1
So I do that myself, the password? Okay. Well, I'll see what I can do here, so okay.
08:00
Speaker 2
The warranty status of the device had expired around April 6th of 2022. It is no longer eligible for free troubleshooting on our end. But, needless to say, all troubleshooting steps or guides for the device is completely free and available on support.linksys.com. On the other hand, which is completely optional, but if you do still wish to proceed with troubleshooting through the phone, it entails a $15 cost. But in the meantime, for the current issue, once again, you have two options right now. Try connecting your new computer with an ethernet cable directly to the router or the second option is to change the password with a different one instead. Yes.
08:00
Speaker 1
Oh, oh, uh, I'll, I'll call back if I can, uh, yeah. Oh, okay. Okay. Uh, good-bye.
09:00
Speaker 2
All right. So if there's nothing else. All right. So once again, thank you so much for calling Linksys as well. Take care and have a great day. Call us back whenever you have the time.
