V2 Grader Summary

The agent declared the E1200 router end-of-support and redirected the customer to an AI tool without performing any troubleshooting or providing actionable steps to retrieve the Wi-Fi password. This constituted Avoidance/Evasion (critical failure B), as no best-effort assistance was offered for an out-of-warranty device. The interaction lacked ownership, empathy, and clear guidance, leaving the issue unresolved.

V1 Case Analysis

Customer unable to retrieve Wi-Fi password for Roku on new TV; E1200 router is end-of-support. Directed to support.linksys.com AI tool.

Troubleshooting Steps
  • Collected customer contact information (name, email)
  • Confirmed router model (E1200) and serial number
  • Informed customer of end-of-support status
  • Provided link to support.linksys.com AI tool
Key Observations
  • Agent correctly identified the E1200 as end-of-support, aligning with Linksys policy.
  • No actionable troubleshooting steps were provided despite the issue being solvable via local web UI or factory reset.
  • Agent used 'Lynxus' at [01:00], a known ASR/accent variant of 'Linksys'; this is not a technical error per normalization policy.
  • Customer ended the call abruptly after receiving only a website reference, indicating dissatisfaction with the lack of actionable guidance.
Positive Highlights
  • Accurately identified the router model as E1200.
  • Correctly informed the customer that the E1200 is an end-of-support product.
  • Collected customer name and email address.
  • Provided the correct support website URL: support.linksys.com.
Agent Errors / Gaps
  • Did not guide the customer to access the router’s local web interface (http://192.168.1.1 or http://myrouter.local) to view or reset the Wi-Fi password.
  • Failed to suggest a factory reset as a last-resort method to regain access and reconfigure the router.
  • Provided only a generic AI tool reference without specific instructions or KB article links.
  • Did not confirm whether the customer could access the router’s admin page or knew the admin password.
