V2 Grader Summary

The agent failed to provide any meaningful support for a basic setup issue, avoided troubleshooting, gave factually incorrect information, and prematurely terminated the call. The complete lack of technical guidance, ownership, and customer empathy constitutes avoidance/evasion, warranting an auto-zero under protocol B.

V1 Case Analysis

Customer unable to enter Wi-Fi security key on EA6350V2. Agent misidentified model as 'F-50', provided no troubleshooting, and advised purchasing new router with no escalation or self-help path.

Troubleshooting Steps
  • Collected serial number and model number from customer
  • Misidentified model as 'new F-50'
Key Observations
  • Agent never addressed the core issue (network security key entry) despite it being the customer's primary complaint
  • Agent provided factually incorrect product information ('new F-50' instead of EA6350V2), contradicting KB model naming conventions
  • No troubleshooting steps were offered for password/login issues, violating KB guidance for such cases
  • Agent failed to offer escalation, paid support, or self-help resources despite customer explicitly asking about cost and support options
  • Call ended with inappropriate suggestion to purchase new router without diagnostic steps or resolution path
Positive Highlights

None recorded.

Agent Errors / Gaps
  • Failed to acknowledge or address the customer's primary issue (network security key entry) at any point
  • Provided incorrect product identification ('new F-50') instead of correctly identifying the EA6350V2
  • Did not follow KB protocol for password/login issues by failing to direct customer to router web interface or offer troubleshooting steps
  • Failed to offer escalation, paid support, or self-help resources when customer asked about cost/support eligibility
  • Ended call with inappropriate suggestion to purchase new router without diagnosing issue or offering resolution path
  • Did not create a case or document interaction, violating basic case management protocol

V2 Indicator Ratings

Resolution
R1 Not Met Issue actually resolved conf 99%
Agent did not resolve the issue of entering the network security key and ended the call without providing any solution or valid path forward.
R2 Not Met Diagnostic thoroughness conf 98%
No troubleshooting steps were attempted; agent only collected basic device info and then stated they had no resources to help.
R3 Not Met Correct resolution path conf 97%
Agent failed to determine warranty status, did not attempt best-effort troubleshooting, and incorrectly advised customer to buy a new router instead of guiding through setup.
Technical Accuracy
T1 Not Met Technically accurate info conf 98%
Agent did not identify the symptom (difficulty entering security key), ask diagnostic questions, or attempt to determine root cause such as default password or interface access.
T2 Not Met Appropriate tools / resources used conf 96%
No tools were used or suggested—agent did not direct customer to http://192.168.1.1, check firmware, or access local web interface despite the issue being resolvable via standard self-service steps.
T3 Not Met No misinformation conf 97%
Agent provided materially incorrect information: claimed 'we doesn’t have any resources we can use to troubleshoot this router' and suggested purchasing a new device without justification.
Communication
C1 Not Met Clear & professional language conf 96%
Call lacked clear framing, contained unexplained silences, and agent lost control by failing to guide toward resolution or manage transitions effectively.
C2 Not Met Confirmed understanding conf 95%
Agent used a rigid, scripted tone and did not adapt language or check understanding despite customer confusion about security key and payment.
Customer Ownership
O1 Not Met Ownership & empathy conf 97%
Agent did not take ownership—collected minimal information then dismissed the case with no effort to resolve or escalate appropriately.
O2 Not Met Proactive follow-through conf 96%
No specific next steps were given; only suggestion was to purchase a new router and call back, which is not a valid resolution path.
O3 Not Applicable Closure confirmation conf 100%
This was the first contact; no prior case history existed to reference or maintain continuity.
Escalation Judgment
E1 Not Applicable Correct escalation decision conf 99%
No escalation was performed and none was warranted—the issue (network security key entry) is a basic setup question resolvable at L1.
E2 Not Applicable Escalation prep & handoff conf 99%
No escalation occurred, so execution cannot be assessed.
Customer Experience
X1 Not Met Customer effort minimised conf 96%
Agent offered only a generic apology at the end and did not acknowledge customer frustration, confusion, or effort spent trying to get help.
X2 Not Met Tone & rapport conf 95%
Agent maintained a one-size-fits-all tone and did not adjust pace or style to match customer’s hesitant, confused communication.
X3 Not Met Overall experience conf 97%
Customer was asked multiple times for serial/model number and then sent away without help, creating unnecessary repetition and effort.
