What Warrantees Ruckus Networks provides
Ruckus provides a limited hardware warranty and a 90-day software warranty for every device that it sells. Per our hardware warranty policy, Ruckus will replace or repair newly acquired hardware if it's defective. The 90-day software warranty allows you guest access to technical support and firmware updates for 90 days. After this 90 day period, a valid support contract is required for technical support and software updates for wireless products. You can find additional detail on our support programs HERE.
Customers typically buy a support contract from the reseller they purchased the product from. This contract provides you with ongoing access to software downloads, premium content, technical support (past the 90-day window), and advance replacement of defective hardware. If you did not purchase a support contract through your reseller, fill out your contact information here, and a representative will contact you.
