Service levels

We offer service levels from "I can fix it myself" to "I need someone on the phone immediately".

The available service levels at a glance

Bronze Level

The classic warranty extension. You get free firmware updates and email support, and we replace a defective router in advance for 70% of the list price.

"I can help myself. I just want firmware updates"

Silver Level

A much better choice: support by phone and email. We help you to configure your device via remote desktop. And you get a free advance replacement for a defective router. Should the device one day become obsolete, you will receive an upgrade for a small processing fee.

"I want to be fully covered"

Gold Level

If you are running a mission critical setup, this is exactly what you want. Priority support, same day shipment in case your device is defective. And if your device becomes obsolete, you get a next-generation device for free.

"I'm a VIP and my equipment is mission critical."
