V2 Grader Summary

The agent conducted thorough troubleshooting including resets, multi-device testing, and access attempts, but failed to resolve access to the router admin page. Guidance included undocumented procedures and ended with a recommendation to replace the router rather than escalate or confirm a hardware fault. Despite ownership and persistence, the outcome was incomplete and customer effort was high.

V1 Case Analysis

Customer unable to access E8450 admin page after reset. Agent performed multiple resets, browser changes, and recovery attempts but provided incorrect technical guidance. No valid resolution achieved; call ended with suggestion of hardware failure and replacement.

Troubleshooting Steps
  • Collected model (E8450) and serial number.
  • Instructed to press and hold reset button for 30 seconds multiple times.
  • Guided through connecting via Ethernet and Wi-Fi on both PC and phone.
  • Attempted access via http://192.168.1.1, http://myrouter.local, and 10.0.1.1 using Edge, Chrome (normal and incognito), and phone browser.
  • Performed recovery reset procedure (unplug/plug power 10 times).
  • Attempted access via phone and computer using incognito modes.
Key Observations
  • Agent incorrectly identified E8450 as AX3200 model [69:00], indicating critical product knowledge failure.
  • Failed to verify or instruct customer on default admin password ('admin') for E8450 router, per KB guidance for EA Series routers.
  • Did not confirm correct local access URL (http://192.168.1.1 or http://myrouter.local) before troubleshooting; used incorrect URL (10.0.1.1) without context or justification.
  • Provided no warranty verification, escalation, or callback despite customer's request for serial number validation and evidence of potential hardware fault.
  • Extensive troubleshooting loops without validating basic access prerequisites (e.g., default password, correct URL).
  • Call ended without proper closure, escalation, or follow-up scheduling; customer left with vague hardware-replacement suggestion.
Positive Highlights
  • Collected serial number and model information from customer [01:00-03:00].
  • Remained patient and polite throughout extended troubleshooting session.
  • Attempted multiple access methods (different browsers, devices, and IP addresses).
Agent Errors / Gaps
  • Incorrectly identified router model as AX3200 when customer clearly stated E8450 [69:00]; KB confirms E8450 is EA Series, not AX3200.
  • Failed to verify or instruct customer on default admin password ('admin') for E8450 router; KB states default password for unconfigured EA Series routers is 'admin'.
  • Did not confirm correct local access URL (http://192.168.1.1 or http://myrouter.local) before troubleshooting; used incorrect URL (10.0.1.1) without context or justification.
  • Provided no warranty verification, escalation, or callback despite customer's request for serial number validation and evidence of potential hardware fault.
  • Repeated unclear and inefficient troubleshooting steps (e.g., recovery reset 10 times) without validating outcomes or KB-backed procedures.
  • Suggested hardware replacement without proper diagnostic process or support path management; KB requires confirmation of hardware fault before replacement recommendation.

V2 Indicator Ratings

Resolution
R1 Not Met Issue actually resolved conf 98%
Agent ends the call by suggesting the customer buy a newer router instead of resolving the issue with the current one, indicating no resolution was achieved.
R2 Met Diagnostic thoroughness conf 94%
Agent performed factory reset, tried multiple access methods (192.168.1.1, myrouter.local, 10.0.1.1), used wired and wireless, different devices, incognito mode, and verified physical connections — all relevant and logically sequenced steps.
R3 Partially Met Correct resolution path conf 92%
Agent attempted best-effort troubleshooting for an out-of-warranty E8450, but failed to verify warranty status properly and prematurely defaulted to replacement advice without confirming hardware defect or exhausting all paths.
Technical Accuracy
T1 Met Technically accurate info conf 96%
Agent identified symptom (can't access admin page), asked for model, serial, ISP, LED status, connection method, and device type — all targeted diagnostic questions leading to logical troubleshooting.
T2 Met Appropriate tools / resources used conf 95%
No remote tools were available or required; agent appropriately used customer-side tools (browser, incognito mode, device switching) to diagnose a local access issue.
T3 Partially Met No misinformation conf 90%
Agent correctly guided browser access and network setup, but instructed a 30-second reset (KB says 10–20s) and introduced an undocumented 'recovery reset' via 10 power cycles, which is not in any KB.
Communication
C1 Partially Met Clear & professional language conf 93%
Agent maintained conversation flow but did not set expectations, explain the troubleshooting roadmap, or manage time — leading to a 89-minute unfocused call with no clear endpoint.
C2 Partially Met Confirmed understanding conf 90%
Agent used terms like 'incognito window' and 'address bar' without consistent simplification; customer repeatedly struggled with basic steps, indicating mismatch in technical adaptation.
Customer Ownership
O1 Met Ownership & empathy conf 97%
Agent owned the case end-to-end, did not transfer, stayed on the line through extended troubleshooting, and took responsibility for guiding the process.
O2 Partially Met Proactive follow-through conf 88%
Agent offered vague next steps ('call back later', 'try recovery reset') without specific timelines, ownership, or follow-up commitment.
O3 Not Applicable Closure confirmation conf 100%
This was the first contact; no prior case history or handoff occurred.
Escalation Judgment
E1 Not Met Correct escalation decision conf 95%
Despite repeated failure to access the admin interface on a new unit after full troubleshooting, agent did not escalate to L2 or initiate RMA path, which is warranted for suspected hardware defect.
E2 Not Applicable Escalation prep & handoff conf 100%
No escalation occurred, and since E1 is Not Met due to failure to escalate, E2 remains Not Applicable.
Customer Experience
X1 Partially Met Customer effort minimised conf 87%
Agent expressed empathy ('you're doing good', 'thank you for your patience') but it remained generic and did not acknowledge the customer's repeated frustration or effort.
X2 Partially Met Tone & rapport conf 86%
Agent remained polite but did not adjust pace or simplify language when customer showed confusion (e.g., couldn't find Chrome, address bar), indicating limited adaptation.
X3 Not Met Overall experience conf 96%
Customer endured multiple resets, device switches, browser changes, and repeated steps — high effort with no reduction in friction or agent-side action to simplify.

10:00
Speaker 1
We're looking at so I got, that's good, global, a globe down there with an X in it and it's not showing my Ethernet tables. Oh God. Uh, the, only other device I would have would be my phone.
11:00
Speaker 2
It's not showing sir as connected for your computer. Ok. Do you have other device, sir, that you can use? Ok, so I'm, let's just try sir for the said up and then once we,

15:00
Speaker 1
Is a Ooma on there? I can. I can unhook yeah. This is not Ooma speech against B-O-P protocol. Uh, for my uh home phone service. Right. Here. Uh, OK. Here. It's finally going to that. So it doesn't support secure connections. I'm going to continue to the site. So it did. The ID is trying to do that. Um, so this is what I've got. What I have is a Calix GigaSpire Blast. C-A-L-I-X.
16:00
Speaker 2
Okay, I see. Can you provide me, sir, what's the model number of your modem? Do you have that one available on your modem? Okay. Okay. How do you spell the complex?
16:00

17:00
Speaker 2
and then Okay. Okay.
17:00
Speaker 1
Yeah, there is a built in wifi on it and it's, it's uh, uh, from my phone company, but they have it disabled. Yes, we can turn it off. But that, but that. Okay, I'm gonna unplug it so it is turned off. And then the Linksys router, I'm going to turn it off, is that what you said as well? [silence]
18:00
Speaker 2
So you have four ports with the modem. Do you have say like a um do you have a built in wifi on this one or no? Disabled. Okay. Is it possible sir to turn this one off? Can we turn this one off for a while? Oh okay. All right and then I want you to turn off the Linux is your out there as well sir. Yes sir. [silence]
18:00
Speaker 1
Okay, I just unplugged it's what I did. All right. Right. [silence]
19:00
Speaker 2
Okay. So, let me set a timer and then I will let you know when to plug it back in. Thank
19:00
Speaker 1
Mm-hmm. Did you say breech mode? I do not. I think they just turned it off because they turned it off for the op. They set it up. I mean, it's been working fine, but they turned it off because there was an additional fee for it. And that's why, that's why I had my own because I didn't want to pay the monthly fee for the for that. So they turned it off.
21:00
Speaker 2
and uh by the way sir you've mentioned that your internet service provider disable the wifi on your modem, right? Okay. Did they set it up uh like a bridge mode? Uh a bridge mode sir, yes. Or they just turned off the wifi? Okay. I see. Mhm. Mhm. Oh, okay. And do you have Oh, uh, Channel point as well. Do you also have your fiber channels for on [silence]
21:00
Speaker 1
Of a, a WAN port on the back of their modem? Yeah, I think there is. What, what, what is the, uh, the WAN port? Uh. I don't see that. It looks like a USB.
22:00
Speaker 2
Yes, please. WAN port? yes, Uh, I think it labeled as WAN sir, on, um at the back. Below, below D number four port. I think above the USB sir.
22:00
Speaker 1
I don't think... I've got four ethernet ports. I've got four ethernet ports and one, two, and three have to look screens on a thing and then four hole looks like, you know, your internet. It's got your little global thing next to the four. That little globe. No. That's where that's that is actually the one I did have the ethernet cable hooked into that one. It looked like it had the glow. What's that? [silence]
23:00
Speaker 2
[silence] or how many ports do you have um on on the on the other model? Okay. Okay. Okay. Do you have something that's connected on the little globe? What is your net cable sir? From the long term router or from Um what is your net for the utilized utilization so before right before you replace it with the new one and where is the main hub server for this one like did you um is it connected to another box like the main source of internet okay like the fiber line okay okay can we connect the router sure on that little globe that you have
23:00
Speaker 1
OK.
25:00
Speaker 2
All right. And then it's already... Three minutes by the way sir, you can plug in back the Linksys router. uh, no the modem first, sorry. Yes sir, correct. And let's wait, yes. And then, let's wait for the modem to go online first. And then, if you think that the modem is online, then we'll plug- in the Linksys router.
25:00
Speaker 1
Yeah, I'll tell you when that modem turns green. it's It's blinking. No, thank you. I just feel sorry you have to deal with stupid people like me all day. Maybe nobody else. Maybe nobody else is real. Uh,
26:00
Speaker 2
[silence] Okay, so, thank you so much. [silence] No, sorry, you're not, you're actually doing good. [silence] You're doing good.
26:00
Speaker 1
It's turned from yellow to red, but it should turn green. In fact, blinking green should go solid green.
27:00
Speaker 2
Music is wonderful. Various shapes and colors appear when I close my eyes.
28:00
Speaker 1
OK. It's blinking green and on my on my uh wireless router. It's showing the internet is blue and the power's blue and then number one where I've got it hooked in it's it's blue. Uh huh. [silence]

Okay okay yeah it's connected to the links it's wireless it's also it's also got the ethernet cable plugged in Don't want to unplug the ethernet cable? okay yes okay it's showing it's connected but no [silence]
30:00
Speaker 2
on the, I think, the number four port at the back right, where you have the little globe. And then, as for your computer, it's connected to the linksys. Okay. Yes, let's unplug the ethernet cables there on the computer. So, your computer there can go, can go wireless as well? Ah, okay.
