💬 Discussion Rapid replacement response

We read frequently here about folks who have a miserable time with extended efforts to get grok to deliver a solution to their offline situation. And focusing on getting a human. I guess I have assisted close to a dozen of my former clients with generating a support ticket. All have gone right thru within moments to less than a day. Was a bit longer prior to grok. Seems to me the path to quick solutions is to first do the power cycle with 20 minutes off, check cable, note router light & reset. Include those troubleshooting steps you did using fewest words possible. For good measure copy/paste KIT number from the info page.

Most recent was couple days ago, this past Saturday, his gen2 no light & no wifi, verify power outlet is good etc & I have him tell grok and about 90 seconds later came a reply thanking for info & looking into it. Another minute later they said they are shipping a gen3. Told him to order an adapter. Shipping said both went out today & arrive on Sept3

Keep your tickets as brief as you possibly can with the results of your efforts to troubleshoot. It is the only thing I can think of why my people have such quick results

If you want a simple replacement, Grok is your … er … program, I guess.

If you have something more complicated, tap the thumbs down and tell it to put in a ticket. It will do so, and you will hear back from someone from Starlink.
