V2 Grader Summary

The agent provided only generic power-cycle and reset advice, did not perform any diagnostic steps or use tools, and failed to resolve the intermittent connectivity problem. No escalation was made despite the issue remaining unresolved, and empathy was minimal. Consequently, the call ends without a solution.

V1 Case Analysis

Customer reports intermittent internet drops on a Linksys E900 router. Agent suggested power-cycle, reset, and emailed a reconfiguration guide. No diagnostic testing performed; issue unresolved.

Troubleshooting Steps
  • Collected router model (E900) and serial number (partial)
  • Suggested power-cycle of the router
  • Suggested reset and reconfiguration
  • Emailed a reconfiguration guide to the customer
Key Observations
  • Agent did not follow standard diagnostic flow (e.g., direct modem test, WAN status check).
  • No verification of whether suggested steps resolved the issue.
  • Suggestion to upgrade router implies potential out-of-warranty or end-of-life status.
  • Long silences and unclear communication reduced efficiency.
Positive Highlights
  • Collected router model and serial number.
  • Sent a reconfiguration guide to the customer.
  • Maintained a polite and professional tone.
Agent Errors / Gaps
  • Failed to perform WAN diagnostics (e.g., direct modem speed test) to isolate the issue.
  • Did not verify whether the suggested power-cycle/reset resolved the problem.
  • Provided generic advice without confirming outcome or root cause.
  • Did not discuss warranty or escalation options despite potential hardware/age issue.

Speaker 2
Yeah. Okay. Yes, ma'am. That is better, ma'am, because even if we can fix the issue of the router, it's not a guarantee that it will work. Okay.

Um, you just have to provide me your full name and email. How do I spell your last name? Yeah. Okay. And your email. What? Can I just send it back
