Getting Internet technical support

Our Technical Support team developed a Web page to assist with framing and submitting a technical support issue. The information you provide allows us to route the question to the appropriate support technician. It also enables us to link the question with information you report about your network as well as our database of all the support issues you have brought to our attention.

To access Internet technical support, you must have your LiveSecurity License key. To access Technical Support and its Web interface, from the Control Center:

1Click the LiveSecurity Control Center button (shown at right).

2Select On the Web. Select Product Support.

Or, open your Web browser and connect to the secure WatchGuard support site at https://www.watchguard.com/support/.

Getting telephone support

If you have a problem, please contact us via the Web to submit a profile of your case. Follow up with a phone call only if the need is too time-critical to wait for a Web response.

The WatchGuard Technical Support team recognizes that no one likes to be put on hold. We make it our policy to answer every call. If we cannot answer your question immediately, we request your telephone number and call you back as soon as we have an answer.
