Support 101 - Where do I begin?

1. Determine what product you have by finding your Product Code/Number.
2. Find your Product Code/Number on the Support Main Menu Page, then go to your Product's Support Page.
3. View or download files. Look at our example Support page below, it points out locations on the page for files and offers quick explanations for file types available.

Note: product codes, product IDs, and model numbers are all very similar.
Product codes typically include "USR", 2 number country code, 4 number model number, and 1 letter revision version.
Product IDs include 2 number country code, 4 number model number, and 2 number revision version.
Model numbers are 4 numbers and do not include revision version.

You have chosen Internal Networking.
Your Product Code is printed on a label attached to the bottom of your product or on the board behind the metal bracket. If you do not have the product code written down or do not have the box your product came in, you may need to open your computer. Note: For PC Cards, the label is located on the bottom of the card. See the image below for an example. You will be looking for something such as "SKU number," "Product Number," or a code under the product name. In this case, the Product Code is USR5416.

All networking product codes start with a "USR" and are followed with a series of numbers (possibly a 2 number country code and a 4 number model number) and possibly a letter (Version). For example USR8000A - product code USR8000A, model number 8000, version A. Some labels list the product number instead of the product code, for example 008000-01. If you don't see a USR####, then look for a series of numbers that look like this ######-## (6 digits - dash - 2 digits).

If you have a product code of USR + 6 numbers (for example, USR805416) OR you did not purchase your product in the U.S. or Canada then you most likely need to go to another support section. Europe, Latin America, and Asia Pacific have different support. Go to www.usr.com/support and select your region.

NOTE:Be sure to look at the label closely, sometimes the FCC model number matches your Product Code. In this case it matches, but be sure to double check.

Note: If you found your Product Code/Number and do not see your product in the lists, it is either no longer supported or it is manufactured for distribution in another region. There are regional links at the top of the main support page.

Not able to determine your product code: E-mail a technician.
