V2 Grader Summary

The agent followed policy and escalated appropriately, but failed to resolve or meaningfully troubleshoot the hardware issue. No solution was provided for the faulty power connection, and the customer was left waiting for L2 review without a timeline, resulting in an unresolved outcome despite correct technical information and tool use.

V1 Case Analysis

Customer unable to access router settings and reports loose power adapter connection causing router to power off when moved. Agent provided correct URL (myrouter.local), collected serial number (58W10M21E03457), confirmed customer name (Jeremy Barton), requested purchase receipt, and escalated to Level 2 for hardware investigation. Model number not collected. No immediate fix provided.

Troubleshooting Steps
  • Provided correct local web address (http://myrouter.local) for accessing router settings.
  • Requested serial number for device identification.
  • Advised that replacement power adapters are not sold separately by Linksys.
  • Requested purchase receipt to assess warranty eligibility.
  • Offered to email a receipt-attachment link.
  • Escalated the case to Level 2 for hardware fault investigation.
Key Observations
  • Agent correctly provided the accurate local web access URL (myrouter.local) as per KB guidance in universal_web_browser_setup.md and adjacent_smart_home_iot.md, which is the recommended method for all current Linksys routers.
  • Agent failed to collect or confirm the router model number, which is a required protocol step for hardware fault handling and accurate support pathing.
  • Warranty status was not verified despite the customer explicitly asking if the unit was still under warranty and expressing interest in a replacement.
  • Agent did not offer any self-help guidance for the power issue, such as checking for debris in the port, trying a different power outlet, or using a known-good compatible adapter, which could have been provided safely even without model confirmation.
  • Long silences and lack of a clear recap left the customer without a structured summary of next steps.
Positive Highlights
  • Provided the correct local web address (http://myrouter.local) for accessing router settings, aligning with KB recommendations for modern Linksys routers.
  • Successfully collected the serial number (despite garbled input) and confirmed the customer's name (Jeremy Barton).
  • Accurately explained company policy regarding power adapter replacements and the need for warranty validation.
  • Offered to email a receipt-attachment link and properly escalated the case to Level 2 for further investigation.
Agent Errors / Gaps
  • Failed to obtain or confirm the router model number, a critical omission for hardware fault resolution.
  • Did not verify warranty coverage despite customer inquiry and escalation path depending on it.
  • Provided no actionable self-help steps for the power adapter issue beyond requesting a receipt.
  • Did not confirm whether the customer successfully accessed the web interface after being given the correct URL.

V2 Indicator Ratings

Resolution
R1 Not Met Issue actually resolved conf 95%
Customer requested a replacement power adapter or new router due to a loose power connection; agent did not resolve the issue, only escalated after stating Linksys does not sell adapters.
R2 Not Met Diagnostic thoroughness conf 90%
Agent did not perform meaningful troubleshooting — failed to guide customer to check power LED, test connection stability, or access router UI despite customer expressing intent to do so later.
R3 Partially Met Correct resolution path conf 85%
Agent correctly followed policy that adapters aren't replaced standalone and escalated, but did not explore warranty eligibility or offer best-effort troubleshooting for the hardware defect.
Technical Accuracy
T1 Partially Met Technically accurate info conf 80%
Agent identified the loose adapter and web access issue, asked for serial number, but did not ask diagnostic questions about LED status, physical inspection, or prior reset impact.
T2 Met Appropriate tools / resources used conf 95%
Agent used internal system to pull up router by serial number and initiated email for receipt upload — appropriate tool use given the hardware replacement context.
T3 Met No misinformation conf 95%
All technical statements (e.g., no standalone adapter replacement, correct use of myrouter.local) were accurate and aligned with KB policies.
Communication
C1 Met Clear & professional language conf 90%
Agent maintained control by collecting necessary info (serial number), setting next steps, and guiding the interaction despite interruptions.
C2 Met Confirmed understanding conf 90%
Agent used clear, simple language, confirmed device type (iPhone), and repeated instructions for myrouter.local access without technical jargon.
Customer Ownership
O1 Met Ownership & empathy conf 90%
Agent owned the case end-to-end: collected details, looked up device, communicated policy, initiated escalation, and did not transfer unnecessarily.
O2 Partially Met Proactive follow-through conf 80%
Agent instructed customer to send receipt via email and mentioned escalation to L2, but did not provide expected timeline or follow-up window.
O3 Not Applicable Closure confirmation conf 100%
No prior case history; this was confirmed first contact with no handoff required.
Escalation Judgment
E1 Met Correct escalation decision conf 90%
Escalation was appropriate — agent recognized hardware issue beyond L1 scope and initiated L2 review after verifying ownership and policy constraints.
E2 Partially Met Escalation prep & handoff conf 80%
Agent informed customer of escalation to L2 and provided email path, but did not specify team, expected response time, or next action details.
Customer Experience
X1 Partially Met Customer effort minimised conf 80%
Agent offered polite apologies but did not explicitly acknowledge customer’s frustration with defective hardware or validate effort spent troubleshooting.
X2 Met Tone & rapport conf 90%
Agent matched customer’s pace, remained patient during delays, and adjusted tone to be supportive without rushing or interrupting.
X3 Partially Met Overall experience conf 80%
Customer had to locate receipt independently, adding effort; however, agent reduced friction by sending direct email instructions for submission.

Um, yeah, it's but it's it's got a, it's got a bad it's got a, a not good connection on the back where the power plug adapter plugs into the rear of my of my router. It's not good. It's not it's not a secure it's not a secure connection. It's just really flimsy, I guess. And this is yeah. and it [silence] Okay.
06:00

07:00
Speaker 2
Hello, sir. Yes. Thank you so much for patiently waiting on the line. Um with regards to your concerns there about the power adapter, uh, we do apologize, but we don't uh, replace a power adapter only. And we require the device yeah, in order to replace the power. Yeah. Unfortunately, this is one of our company policies, sir, sorry about that. [silence]
09:00
Speaker 1
(background noise) uh, yeah, I, I would like to get a whole new router. I want a whole new router, okay? Because it might not be just the power adapter. I'm assuming it's just that. It could just be the port where it plugs into, which is on the router itself. So, between that port and the plug, there's a problem. So, I want that problem fixed. Can I get that problem fixed? Can y'all fix it for me? I will send these two back to you and you can send a, send me a replacement. That would be perfect for me. Um, and then my 10 minutes on the phone has not been wasted and then I'll have a router that works better and more functional and correctly. Thank you so much for checking on that for me. Okay, whatever you need. [silence]
10:00
Speaker 2
Since your unit is still working and only the adapter is not, what we can highly suggest is for you to replace it. Mm-hmm. [silence] I see all right. Because if that is the case, sir, we need to isolate, we really need to isolate the problem and with regards to that we're doing our best.
10:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Go ahead. Okay. That's fine. Okay. Yeah, yeah. I just, I just need all the specific details, uh, you know, a video of it or or whatever.
