Auto-Zero applied: T3 Not Met due to provision of materially incorrect information (invalid support URLs: 'support.links-es.com', 'link-sis.com') — constitutes a critical failure under rubric section A–F: Non-Adherence to Approved Resources.

V2 Grader Summary

The agent failed to resolve a basic SSID change request, provided factually incorrect support URLs, and offered no troubleshooting despite the issue being easily addressable via local web interface. No ownership or effective guidance was demonstrated, and materially inaccurate information triggers an auto-zero under critical failure rules.

V1 Case Analysis

Customer unable to change Wi-Fi SSID after storm-induced outage. Agent provided invalid support URLs, did not collect model/serial, and offered paid support without troubleshooting. Customer left to self-resolve with unreliable guidance.

Troubleshooting Steps
  • Stated router is out of warranty without system verification
  • Suggested using the Linksys app to change SSID (no guidance provided)
  • Provided invalid support URLs: support.links-es.com, support.linksis.com ([06:00–07:00])
  • Recommended YouTube tutorial for 'how to set up Linksys router using the Linksys app'
  • Offered paid support option
Key Observations
  • Agent provided two invalid support URLs: 'support.links-es.com' and 'support.linksis.com' ([06:00–07:00]), which are not official Linksys domains and could mislead the customer.
  • No model or serial number was collected, despite the SSID change process being model-dependent ([04:00–05:00]).
  • Paid support was offered before any basic troubleshooting or self-help guidance was properly delivered ([07:00]).
  • Agent failed to guide the customer through the actual process of changing the SSID via app or web UI (myrouter.local), despite this being a standard procedure documented in the KB.
  • Agent repeated 'All right' nine times consecutively at the end of the call ([09:00]), indicating poor call control and communication.
Positive Highlights
  • Acknowledged the impact of the storm and power outage on the customer's service ([01:00–02:00]).
  • Correctly identified the symptom: SSID reverted to default after power loss ([04:00]).
  • Recommended the customer try free self-help options before paid support ([07:00]).
Agent Errors / Gaps
  • Provided materially incorrect support URLs: 'support.links-es.com' and 'support.linksis.com' ([06:00–07:00]), which are not valid Linksys domains and contradict the KB (should be support.linksys.com or myrouter.local).
  • Failed to collect or confirm product model and serial number, which are essential for accurate troubleshooting and warranty validation ([04:00–05:00]).
  • Prematurely introduced paid support before attempting any basic, safe triage steps such as guiding the customer to access the router via myrouter.local or the Linksys app ([07:00]).
  • Did not walk the customer through the actual process of changing the SSID, even though this is a common and documented procedure in the KB (adjacent_connecting_devices.md and universal_mesh_full_rebuild.md).
  • Repeated 'All right' nine times in succession at call close ([09:00]), demonstrating poor communication and lack of closure structure.
  • Did not confirm whether the customer could access the router or app, nor clarify Wi-Fi vs. admin password access.

They all say link, these set up 95, C, which is the name on the bottom, you know, on the labels on the bottom of the um, whatever you call this. Anyway, and there's a password, which is F capital O, or maybe that's a number O. Anyway, UKSF capital O again HJ, you know what I'm saying. Do you want the, but I can't seem to change it back to Blackie. For any of the, any of the devices we have, you know, and I I'm sorry. But I can't. I don't have the email. Anyway, so link C is my Wi-Fi, and Blackie is the Wi-Fi on all the other devices. Can, can I just change it back to blackie so that I can at least know if it's them, my provider, you know, where I get my internet from, or if it's this. Do you understand, was that, it's like simple enough. Why do you want the serial number? It's like, yes, you are. Yes. Yeah. Yes.

Speaker 2
All right. So just to verify, just to verify, am I speaking with Elzbieta Swierczewski? Thank you so much. So what happened was the storm caused an outage on your internet, but now that it's back and it's running, the Wi-Fi name from Blacky went back to the default Linksys name. So your Blackie Wi-Fi is the Linksys, but it's just a different name. To change it back to the Blacky Wi-Fi that you would like to have, you need at least [silence] Leased the Linksys app, download it so it can do the changes for you. However, all right. All right. [silence] Before anything else, ma'am. I will set your expectations that your router is unfortunately no longer in warranty. The warranty status of the device had expired around August 14 of 2023, which sets it to where it's no longer eligible for [silence]
