V2 Indicator Ratings

Resolution
R1 Met Issue actually resolved conf 98%
Customer confirmed internet connectivity and stated 'I think you did it. I think it's the both.' after reconfiguring a child node as the new master.
R2 Met Diagnostic thoroughness conf 96%
Agent conducted systematic troubleshooting: verified power adapter specs, tested outlets, attempted factory reset, performed recovery power-cycle, and confirmed no LED activity — all appropriate for suspected hardware failure.
R3 Met Correct resolution path conf 97%
Agent identified a hardware fault (dead node) and chose the correct path – escalation for a replacement rather than dismissing the out-of-warranty case, while providing best-effort troubleshooting to restore service.
Technical Accuracy
T1 Met Technically accurate info conf 97%
Agent identified the symptom (no power), asked targeted questions (power adapter specs, outlet test, switch position), ruled out external factors, and logically concluded internal hardware failure.
T2 Met Appropriate tools / resources used conf 95%
Agent appropriately used remote guidance to access myrouter.info, interpret LED states, and walk through recovery steps — tools sufficient and correctly applied for diagnosing a non-powering node.
T3 Met No misinformation conf 96%
Technical guidance was accurate: verified power specs (12V/2.5A), used correct local URL (myrouter.info for MBE7000 per KB), and correctly identified the 'solid white' LED as the online state for MBE7000 (per velop_wifi_connectivity.md).
Communication
C1 Partially Met Clear & professional language conf 90%
Agent maintained general control but had unclear transitions (e.g., 'let’s do this one last step' followed by multiple new steps) and a 7-minute unexplained hold, weakening call framing.
C2 Met Confirmed understanding conf 95%
Agent used clear, adaptive language ('Sir John'), repeated instructions when needed, confirmed understanding ('Do you see the Wi-Fi name?'), and matched customer’s pace during complex steps.
Customer Ownership
O1 Met Ownership & empathy conf 97%
Agent owned the case end-to-end: reviewed prior contact with Ben, performed full troubleshooting, created a new ticket, and provided a new ticket number — no unnecessary transfers.
O2 Met Proactive follow-through conf 96%
Agent clearly stated next steps: customer to email proof of purchase, customer service to process replacement, and provided new ticket LTS00136286 with explanation of follow-up.
O3 Met Closure confirmation conf 97%
Agent referenced prior interaction ('Ben'), used existing ticket LTS00135968, pulled serial numbers from record, and confirmed purchase date — demonstrating full case continuity.
Escalation Judgment
E1 Met Correct escalation decision conf 96%
Escalation was appropriate: after confirming hardware failure and exhausting L1 troubleshooting, agent escalated to customer service for RMA — a valid trigger beyond L1 scope.
E2 Met Escalation prep & handoff conf 96%
Agent executed escalation correctly: created new ticket, informed customer of handoff to customer service, explained required action (email proof), and provided new ticket number.
Customer Experience
X1 Met Customer effort minimised conf 97%
Agent demonstrated consistent empathy: thanked customer for patience, apologized for inconvenience, and acknowledged effort ('Thank you for your time and your patience').
X2 Met Tone & rapport conf 95%
Agent adapted tone to customer’s confusion, used respectful address ('Sir'), slowed instructions during recovery steps, and checked comprehension at key points.
X3 Partially Met Overall experience conf 89%
Agent reduced effort by guiding setup remotely but added customer burden: requested video proof, placed unexplained hold, and required email follow-up — avoidable friction.

Speaker 1
LTS 0 0 1 3 5 9 6 8. Okay. And while it's come up, I just, so the master node went out, and it won't even power on, it was Sunday afternoon and all that. And so I called Ben from work on Monday, and he um, he was very nice and helpful, but he said I needed to be home with the other nodes beside me to talk through. And so I'm at home now, and I got the nodes. And really what I was trying to do was make one of the child no, there's the master. when I called you, but I can't, I can't get that to work at all either. So I have the two child nodes power on and they work, but the master node, it doesn't even power up. Yeah, V-Lab 7, uh, Velop 7 Pro. So, correct. it's like dead, correct. Yep.
01:00
Speaker 2
okay. okay. Okay, so I just pulled up your record. This is John Starmack. Email address is J_Starmack_jr@gmail.com. So you have an MBE7000, right? [silence] Yes. So, uh, the parent node right now won't power up. It won't turn on. Is that correct? [silence] the main node. Okay. [silence] And let me verify the serial number. If I get that right, sir, is it 59A4 for Apple [silence] 10M for Mar.
02:00
Speaker 1
uh for the bad node for the one that, yeah, yeah, five, yeah. Can you read that one more? I, I think I was 5-9-8. Oh, yes. Yes, ma'am. That's right. Uh, you mean other uh links? Yes. I know I did not do that. I I can. Let me try that. I've just been using the one that that always had used.
03:00
Speaker 2
count. [silence] yep. 59A for Apple. 10M for Mary. 29D as in David. 03563. Okay. So, you tried other power adapter that has the same specs and it still won't power up, correct? Okay.
03:00
Speaker 1
yeah, yeah, so I'll just, Yep. Yep, no, I'm doing it right now. That makes sense. I'm just going to switch on over there. Yeah, it's black as could be. It's nothing, same as the other power, so why? Hello? Oh, okay, yeah, no, it's the same thing. It's it's nothing comes on, nothing instead.
04:00
Speaker 2
you have three nodes, right? You have three of those MBE 7,000, yeah, I believe they do have the same specs. Can you please check? Um, if you try other, if you try using other power adapter, it will turn on? So, just for further isolation. Yes, I'm here.
04:00
Speaker 1
How do I do that? Is that on? I mean, there's a sticker here. It's a K-Tech K-Tech AC adapter model input output. 12 volts equals 2.5 amps. Is that what you want? Yep. It's the it's the plugs that came with. They're all the same. Oh Yep. Yeah. Correct. I did that. Yeah.
05:00
Speaker 2
Okay, so... Okay, so it's 12 volts, 2.5 amps, right? Okay. Okay. and you've also tried, uh, plugging it in to other power outlets and it still won't power on, right?
05:00
Speaker 1
Yeah, I have the receipt. I'm looking at it right now. I got it over here. I, my mine said 224 24, February, 24 2024. I got it at Best Buy. yes, ma'am. yep. [silence]
06:00
Speaker 2
Okay. All right, sir, so, let me verify the date of purchase. Is it on March 27, 2024? Do you still have the receipt for this device? It's February 24, 2024. Okay. And where did you purchase this from? Right. Can I get the complete name of this? Make sure that all details are correct before we proceed with this verification process.
06:00
Speaker 1
Best Buy here in Two Notch Road in Columbia, South Carolina. Yeah, okay. Thank you. Okay. [silence] It's it's it's it's on on yeah one yeah one on okay so there there's a reset button and then there's a big button right above the one on which you want me to hit
07:00
Speaker 2
Okay, by the way, Sir John, did you also uh check the the switch at the bottom? Is it is the switch uh toggled to one? Is it on one right now? It's one. Okay. Um, can we try uh pressing the reset button at the bottom of the device? And check if you hear any click when you press. Okay. Uh, yeah, before we'll do that, uh, before we'll do that Sir John, can we try um turning off the switch and then turning it back on and check if uh, you see any light.
08:00
Speaker 1
Yeah. [pause] On the phone, you mean? Or what?
10:00
Speaker 2
Okay. All right. Let me just check. Sure if uh if we're able to see the network that uh underneath the uh that uh links this device. Um underneath it. Do you see the Wi-Fi name? It could be, yeah, cause uh some sometimes uh, you know, the the light could be turned off or something. It's just not that uh lit up uh uh properly. So, could be that it's it's still broadcasting the network. So let's just try underneath that you, do you see the Wi-Fi name? What's the, what's the Wi-Fi name or the SSI ID shows up there? Showed up there. [silence]
10:00
Speaker 1
What where? Yeah, uh, uh, it says the yeah, underscore V log setup 485. Yep. Um. Wi-Fi. Ani network? No. Available networks? Nothing's even coming up. No, that no, not no networks are coming. No. No. Now some of our neighbors are.
11:00
Speaker 2
not on the phone but on the on the on the parent node what is the name that uh... what's the default name uh... is it valrop set up four eight five okay now uh... can we can we check your phone if you see that name it's uh... valrop set up four eight four right it's not there no network okay can we try pressing the reset yep can we try pressing the reset [silence]
11:00
Speaker 1
So that's the one that says reset, not the bigger button below it, the big the small one. OK. OK. Yeah. I'm holds OK. I'm holding it now. Tell me when to let go. Oh, there's a Knight mode. I went on these all the ways you.
12:00
Speaker 2
yeah press the small one yeah the reset button yeah it's a reset button yes the small one yeah it's present hold it for about 30 seconds yeah just yeah just to make sure that up okay we're just making sure that the uh maybe the night mode is uh turned on this one that's why you can't see the light so we're just resetting it okay 23 seconds 22 21 16 more seconds
12:00
Speaker 1
Okay, I'm still holding the reset, should I let go? Let go? Okay. No lights, no, I mean, there's no changes at all and no, nothing clicked or anything like you were asking.
13:00
Speaker 2
All right, you may let go, . You may let go, . Feel no light, . Okay, . Okay, . Sir, let's just do this one last step, . Okay, we will do a recovery, uh, reset. Okay, . A recovery procedure, I mean, . So, um, to do the recovery procedure, okay, uh, please unplug the power from the router, . Okay, wait two seconds. Okay, just, uh, just listen to the instructions first. Unplug power from the router, wait two seconds, plug the power back on, and then count. for five seconds. Do this four times, Sir. Okay, unplug the
13:00
Speaker 1
Okay. Do you want me to? Okay, okay. Yeah, so unplug it, count to two, plug it in, count to five, unplug it, two, five. Do that four times, then on the fifth time, on the fifth time, just leave it plugged in.
14:00
Speaker 2
the power from the router wait two seconds plug the power back in and then count for five seconds so do this four times and then for the fifth time unplug the power from the router wait two seconds and then connect the power back in so this will usually take a bit longer than the normal boot up so wait for about two to four minutes for the for the last uh five steps okay so can we do that can we try that now yeah unplug the power unplug the power again for the fifth time and plug it in and then wait for two seconds and then plug it back in and then we'll wait for around two to four minutes
14:00
Speaker 1
okay. on the fifth time leave it unplugged and sit at two seconds for four seconds. Oh, okay. so, it's two minutes five seconds, two minutes five or two seconds, five, two, five, two, until the last time and then we just leave it plugged in. I gotcha. is that right? okay. you ready? I'll, I'll tell you what I'm doing. okay. So, unplug. 1, 1,000, 2, 1,000. unplug 1, 1,000, 2, 1,000, 3, 1,000, 4, 1,000, 5, 1,000. unplug 1, 1,000, 2, 1,000. unplug 1, 1,000, 2, 1,000, 3, 1,000, 4, 1,000, 5, 1,000. That's two. unplug 1, 1,000, 2, 1,000, no.
15:00
Speaker 2
Yeah. Uh, For the fifth time unplug the power, wait two seconds, and then plug it back in, and we'll wait for like two to four minutes, because it will take time to boot up. Yes. Yes. Okay. Yeah.
15:00
Speaker 1
The uh light system was plugged into the same search protector. I don't know. it that works fine. Seems odd. This is not working. No, no lights. No. It looks the same as when I called you yesterday. Yeah. I mean, I can you want me to send it to you. Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry, you're talking. Okay. Okay. I'm here. Thank you. [silence] you
17:00
Speaker 2
So, this is just the only one which is which get affected. Okay. All right. So, right now it's still not powering on. Right? No power. Yeah, okay. All right. Okay, then. So, yup, let me put you on hold. I'm sorry. Yeah, I need to have this tracked first with my immediate superior because I need an approval. So, can I put you on hold for about three to four minutes. Okay. All right. [KEEP_UNCERTAIN] [silence]
17:00
Speaker 1
OK. Yes, that is correct. Yeah. Do you want me to take a pic a video of, like, plugging it just plug it in and show you the top and the bottom and the lights on or pictures or like, it just a quick shot. Oh, okay. Okay. Go to purchase verification for you. Okay. Oh yeah, I can do this. And your name is Epi? Okay, very good. Okay, well, why? I'll do that, and I appreciate you helping. While you're on the phone with me, can you help me reconfigure one of these child nodes to be the master so at least we could have internet in part of the house? Because right now we can't have it anywhere. Okay, sure. Yeah, it's a, I guess a,
25:00
Speaker 2
okay, be escalating this case as well to our customer service department, So they will wait for your email replies, okay, yes sir, okay, not a problem. not a problem. not a problem. not a problem So, uh, yeah, I'm going to create another ticket for that, sir John, okay, so Yes, um, can I have the, uh, can I have the serial number of that, uh, of that device?
26:00
Speaker 1
Sure, of the new child? Or, I mean the one I was going to make the master? Yeah, I get it what I did was, I was trying to do it myself, so I did the reset thing and that network is showing up on my phone. So, I kind of, I guess I cleared this particular child noting I didn't do that on the other. So, the serial number is Are you ready? 59A 59A as in alpha. One zero M as in Mary 29D as in delta. 03 574 It's like an I suite. Yep. Yep. Yep. I have. Yep. I have an Ethernet cable from this to that one. Yep. And I got a solid blue light on the top. Yes, ma'am. Uh huh. I is now. Yep. Okay. Okay. Do you want that serial number or? No.
27:00
Speaker 2
All right. Okay, sure. So now can we plug that new parent node to your modem? So you have a spectrum modem, right? So kindly connect the spectrum modem to the internet port. Yes, just make sure you have a solid blue light, okay? All right, how about the the other child node the the that one child node? Is it plugged in as well? Uh, it's okay. Yeah, I just need the.
28:00
Speaker 1
Oh, okay. Yeah. I just plugged in the other child mode and it's now blinking. blue. Okay, sure. So where are you located? I'm just curious. I'm in South Carolina. Oh, you're in a Philippines. Okay. Okay. You're not getting storms or anything, are you? That's not there. Hopefully not. Oh, good. Okay. It's still blinking. blue. of the, the one I gave you the serial number, yes, I did. Yes, I did. because I, I, I'd, I'd call in directions that online. It, it's a, to clear. the other child node, which I didn't reset or anything, it's blinking red right now. on, on the one flashing red. Okay. Okay. Now, that one, I don't have well uh the the internet cable's plugged into the first one right this one no yeah okay do I hold it for what 15 seconds yeah okay so it went black Okay if I could let the reset go yep now it's solid blue again okay it's blinking it's blinking blue what it's doing Yeah, it's blinking blue Yeah, and still blinking blue hockey okay, it stopped blinking it's it's solid blue just like the one plugged in with the Ethernet Yeah [silence] Oh, on the, on the new master node. okay. okay. Oh. Okay. I'm going to have to unplug it then and take it, um, okay. I can unplug the child node right now and then take it down the hall, and, and because right now it's about two feet apart. Okay, hold on one. Yeah, that's all. Yeah, because I, I got. Okay. Yeah, because I got them plugged into the same surge protector right now, just, so, to do all this, so I had it all on one table. Yeah. Okay, so I'm good right here on this little table, no, on the, the new parent node, right. Okay. Do I have to hold it? Okay. I did? [silence] I didn't hold it. I just brush it. I didn't. [silence] No, it's still solid blue on both of 'em. No. [silence] Okay. [silence] the big button. Ah, there it is. Okay. It's flashing now. White. And it's blinking. Now it's solid blue. Do I have to press the pair button on it too or just leave it alone? Okay. Okay. Uh huh. Okay, it's starting to blink blue. That's right. Okay. [silence] Yep, that's blinking blue. Ups, it just turned white. It's blinking white. [silence] And the other one's blinking white also, so they must be talking. [silence] Take, take a picture of it. Yep. Okay. Okay. Yep. Yep. Uh, computer? Yeah, I have my laptop from work. because. Oh, I see. Oh, I see what you're saying. Here's okay. So, what is the bottom of the new master? Blinks yes. Okay. There, they're both still blinking white at each other. So, yep. I have my laptop. Do you want me to get that? Okay. I have it powered over. [silence] One nan I mean I have my laptop op and I can can open a browser me to open a browser or what? uh yes ma'am yep it's a Dell uh Windows yep. ah. let's see oh yeah I see two there's two Velop setups actually um I do see them Oh okay it's just um set up for C7 yep you want me to click Wi-Fi is more secure now. Okay it's saying I'm connected but no internet. Oh it's solid red. I'm going to look at solid red. Yes.
29:00
Speaker 2
All right. Can you check the, uh, the master node? Is it solid white right now or is it still blinking? Very solid red. Okay. Can we, um, again, you, you've plugged in the modem to that master node and it is connected to the internet port. Correct?
41:00
Speaker 1
yeah yes and the on the modem it's blinking and the ember blinking like on the Internet connection okay the child mode also, or just the master in the mode, okay? uh, we'll do that, right. now we just put the modem on, and there's still links this, okay, so they're unplugged now. okay. Thank you for being very patient with me. I really appreciate it. And the child node's now blinking red, which that makes sense. Yeah. You know, before I called you, I [silence] I can tell you before I called you, this, the cable from the modem to my laptop and so the internet was up and I had browser up and I could search and stuff. So I wanted to make sure the internet was up. So it is up. Okay. yes, yes. So the only thing I did is I'm, you know, now that internet connection is going into the, the new master node. So, okay, which one you want me to power on first? The modem? Okay, it Yep. Okay. Yeah, it, you know, it takes a little while it's blinking. Okay, second citizen, yep. I'm still here. The... No, the online is now blinking. So, it's... it's still booting up the modem. Okay, the power solid light and the online is now solid, both of them blue. So, I'm thinking the modem is up. Yep. [silence] Okay. powers in. on the link sys modem. it's blinking blue. Mm-hmm. okay. It's still blinking blue. It started blinking white and red and like now it's all at red again . [silence] okay, hold on okay, I'm ready [silence] H not S, yes [silence] okay, I got what? [silence] I got H [silence] Not S, yes.
42:00
Speaker 2
Open a browser, Google Chrome. Then on the address bar, Yeah, right now we don't have internet but it's okay. We can still access the router settings without internet access. So on the address bar, type in [silence]. Okay, type in h t t p colon slash slash. [silence]. h t t p colon slash slash [silence]. h t t p colon slash slash my router. no S. Yeah, just h t t p colon slash slash my router.i nfo. i nfo, I N F O.
49:00
Speaker 1
enifo, return. your connection is not private. attackers may be to steal your information. blah, blah, blah. okay. uh, proceed. okay. checking for internet, internet connected, welcome. enter your router's password to proceed so this is the okay, that when i took that picture, you mean when i took that picture, right? So this is the same password I typed before under the vLOP set up for C7, for the name and the password, that's the password I use? Okay. Okay. Okay. Personalize your wifi name and password. Oh, cool. So this is where I can make it what our network is, our home network? Yeah, it came up with a screen, it says, "personalize your wifi name and password," and it has what those defaults were on. Yeah, I would like to make it what we, what we had it. So then everything else should just work just like it was, right? That's what I plan on doing. Yep. Excellent. Okay. It's saving changes. The lights on the The links between nodes are blinking white, saving changes on the browser. It says it's ready. Connect your devices to your new Wi-Fi. So, I hit finish. [silence] Let's go. Ah. There it is. [silence] Okay. So I'll select the new one. [silence] Connect automatically. [silence] Okay, that says connected. So I guess, let me open the new tab. Yeah, looks like it. Now, my the new master node is got a solid white light, and the child node is blinking red. okay, Huh. you're wonderful because on my phone my phone now connected to our home Wi-Fi just like it did before so it has to be set up just like it was before. Oh, yeah. Why? Yes. I am going to look at a different device and see if that I think I think I think that worked. Oh, it's it's turned white. Okay. So now they're both solid white, actually. I got, let's see, by me. I got one more. Hold on. I'll check one more that I got. Is your Kindle connected to the Wi-Fi? Can you tell? It could be our regular home one, the old one. You might need to come up here because it might be too far it's connected. [silence] So you're connected to the Wi-Fi, just like before? I think you did it. I think it's it's the both. I really appreciate it. It is us to you. I it so I will take the video do the proof and I'll reply to that I just replied to your email. Right? Okay. Okay. Okay. And then what will they do? Will they replace that node or get back in touch with me of next steps or what what is the next step?
50:00
Speaker 2
