V2 Grader Summary

The call ended with the customer still unable to complete setup or regain internet access. While the agent correctly identified warranty status and offered follow-up resources, troubleshooting was minimal and failed to resolve the core issue. Lack of empathy, poor adaptation to customer distress, and no tool use resulted in a poor experience despite ownership being maintained.

V1 Case Analysis

Customer unable to complete MR7350 setup due to password rejection. Agent incorrectly cited support.links.com, failed to troubleshoot, and prematurely offered paid support. No valid resolution path provided.

Troubleshooting Steps
  • Collected customer name, email, phone, and ticket reference (LT00134999).
  • Confirmed device model (MR7350) and warranty status (out of warranty).
  • Suggested that copy-paste may add extra spaces causing the password to be rejected.
  • Offered to send a video tutorial via email.
  • Provided incorrect support URL (support.links.com).
Key Observations
  • Agent provided an invalid support URL (support.links.com) at [11:00], which is not a Linksys domain and could mislead the customer.
  • No actual troubleshooting was performed — agent did not guide customer to manually enter password, check for extra spaces, or perform a factory reset.
  • Agent prematurely offered paid support at [08:00] without exhausting free self-help steps appropriate for out-of-warranty customers.
  • Agent failed to acknowledge customer frustration or provide empathetic communication.
  • Call ended without confirming if the customer could access the setup page or proceed with manual entry.
Positive Highlights
  • Correctly identified the device model (MR7350) from customer description.
  • Collected customer contact information (name, email, phone) and referenced prior ticket (LT00134999).
  • Recognized that copy-paste could introduce extra spaces — a valid technical insight ([08:00]).
  • Offered to send a video tutorial via email, which could provide some self-help value.
Agent Errors / Gaps
  • Provided incorrect and unsafe support URL (support.links.com) — contradicts KB and poses risk to customer.
  • Failed to guide customer through basic password troubleshooting (manual entry, checking for spaces, factory reset).
  • Did not verify if customer could access the router's local web interface or connect to the default SSID.
  • Prematurely offered paid support without first providing actionable self-help steps.
  • Did not acknowledge customer's frustration or summarize next steps clearly.
  • Failed to collect or confirm serial number despite it being requested in IVR and relevant for out-of-warranty support eligibility.

Resolution
R1 Not Met Issue actually resolved conf 95%
Customer was unable to complete setup due to password mismatch and could not regain internet; issue remained unresolved by call end.
R2 Partially Met Diagnostic thoroughness conf 85%
Agent suggested copy-paste may introduce spaces — a valid troubleshooting step — but did not guide through manual entry, spot-check the sticker, or verify extender mode.
R3 Met Correct resolution path conf 90%
Agent correctly identified MR7350 as out-of-warranty and offered paid support while still attempting troubleshooting, aligning with OOW best-effort standard.
Technical Accuracy
T1 Partially Met Technically accurate info conf 80%
Agent identified symptom (password mismatch) and proposed a plausible cause (extra spaces), but did not verify router state or explore other causes like incorrect network selection.
T2 Not Met Appropriate tools / resources used conf 90%
No use of diagnostic tools (e.g., remote session, admin UI, logs) to confirm password or extender status, despite customer being stuck in setup mode.
T3 Met No misinformation conf 95%
Suggestion that copy-paste can add spaces is technically accurate; out-of-warranty status and support options were correctly communicated.
Communication
C1 Partially Met Clear & professional language conf 80%
Agent gathered customer info and referenced prior support, but failed to set clear expectations or manage multiple long silences effectively.

O3 Partially Met Closure confirmation conf 75%
Agent retrieved customer name and email but did not reference prior steps from the technician’s email or ticket history.

No escalation occurred and none was warranted at this stage.

It's not yet set up. It's about to set up the router, okay? And um, that means, since you can't connect now, so that means um, the uh, the Wi-Fi settings on the router is just the same at the bottom. So it might be earlier when you tried to tap in there, when you do the copy paste, sometimes it will, um, when you do the copy paste, it will add additional space. That's why it will, um, let's say it will say invalid, okay? So, um, right now, ma'am, um, your device, the MR7350 and you're already aware that this is out of warranty, right?
