Transcript quality flagged: the ASR/quality-validation pipeline detected and excluded unreliable transcript segments from grading. Excluded from aggregate KPIs — treat remaining scores and transcript with caution.
Auto-Zero applied: Agent avoided the core issue by providing irrelevant solutions (website, paid service) for a non-Linksys device — constitutes Avoidance/Evasion (B).

V2 Grader Summary

The agent failed to address the customer's actual problem — internet down on a TP-Link router — and instead offered generic steps, website articles, and a paid service unrelated to the device. No troubleshooting, technical accuracy, or ownership was demonstrated, resulting in a clear case of issue avoidance. The call ended without resolution or meaningful support.

V1 Case Analysis

Customer reported internet down on TP-Link Archer C7 (Wi-Fi works, no WAN). Agent misidentified device as Linksys MR-5500, performed no valid WAN diagnostics, and directed customer to support.linksys.com and paid Connect service. No resolution achieved.

Troubleshooting Steps
  • Advised power-cycle of router and modem
  • Collected serial number, phone number, and ISP information
  • Misidentified device as Linksys MR-5500
  • Offered support.linksys.com and paid Connect service
Key Observations
  • Agent misidentified customer's TP-Link Archer C7 as Linksys MR-5500 despite clear customer statements at call start.
  • No WAN diagnostics performed (e.g., no instruction to test internet at modem, check WAN settings, or log into router admin interface).
  • All guidance provided (Linksys KB articles, paid Connect service) was irrelevant to customer's non-Linksys device.
  • Agent referenced 'child nodes' and 'MR-5500' with no indication of mesh system or Linksys hardware, showing fundamental misunderstanding of customer setup.
  • Call ended without confirming resolution or providing concrete, actionable next steps relevant to customer's actual device.
Positive Highlights
  • Polite greeting and professional tone maintained throughout the call.
  • Collected customer contact information (name, phone, email) and serial number as requested by IVR.
Agent Errors / Gaps
  • Incorrect product identification: repeatedly referred to customer's TP-Link Archer C7 as Linksys MR-5500 despite explicit customer statements.
  • Failure to follow standard WAN troubleshooting flow: did not instruct customer to test internet directly at modem, check WAN port status, or log into router admin interface.
  • Provided irrelevant Linksys-specific instructions and KB guidance for a non-Linksys device, constituting technically inaccurate and operationally harmful advice.
  • Offered paid Connect service without verifying device eligibility for Linksys support, violating support eligibility protocol.
  • Ended call without confirming resolution or providing a concrete, actionable next step relevant to customer's TP-Link Archer C7.
  • Misunderstood customer topology: referenced 'child nodes' and 'MR-5500' with no evidence of mesh system or Linksys hardware.

V2 Indicator Ratings

Resolution
R1 Not Met Issue actually resolved conf 100%
Agent did not resolve the issue; customer reported internet down on a TP-Link router, and agent offered no solution beyond power cycling and redirecting to website/paid service.
R2 Not Met Diagnostic thoroughness conf 100%
Agent repeated generic power-cycle steps but did not conduct meaningful troubleshooting (e.g., checking modem lights, WAN connection, or router admin page).
R3 Not Met Correct resolution path conf 100%
Agent offered paid support and KB articles for a TP-Link Archer C7, which is not a Linksys product — misapplying support path and failing to recognize out-of-scope device.
Technical Accuracy
T1 Not Met Technically accurate info conf 100%
No diagnostic process: agent failed to identify symptoms (e.g., modem vs. router issue), ask about LED states, or determine root cause.
T2 Not Met Appropriate tools / resources used conf 100%
No tools used — agent did not attempt remote access, check admin interface, or use logs, despite needing to verify connection status.
T3 Not Met No misinformation conf 100%
Agent provided inaccurate information by suggesting AI assistant and paid Connect service apply to a TP-Link router, which is not supported by Linksys.
Communication
C1 Not Met Clear & professional language conf 100%
Agent lacked call control: no clear framing, no structured troubleshooting, and abrupt ending without confirmation or resolution.
C2 Not Met Confirmed understanding conf 100%
Agent used generic script and did not adapt language or check understanding, despite customer expressing confusion and frustration.
Customer Ownership
O1 Not Met Ownership & empathy conf 100%
Agent avoided ownership by redirecting to website and paid service instead of diagnosing or resolving the issue.
O2 Not Met Proactive follow-through conf 100%
No clear next steps or timeline provided; only suggestion was to visit support.linksys.com or pay for service.
O3 Not Applicable Closure confirmation conf 100%
First contact; no prior history to reference or maintain.
Escalation Judgment
E1 Not Applicable Correct escalation decision conf 100%
No escalation occurred and none was warranted — issue involved non-Linksys hardware.
E2 Not Applicable Escalation prep & handoff conf 100%
No escalation performed; therefore execution cannot be assessed.
Customer Experience
X1 Not Met Customer effort minimised conf 100%
Agent showed no empathy or acknowledgment of customer frustration; remained procedural and detached.
X2 Not Met Tone & rapport conf 100%
Agent did not adjust tone or pace to match customer’s emotional state; communication remained scripted and disengaged.
X3 Not Met Overall experience conf 100%
Customer had to repeat serial number and other details; agent added unnecessary friction by promoting irrelevant services.
