Light? One must suffer before enlightenment.

Flip the cards over and extract the FCC ID number. The first three
letters identify the manufactory of origin. They're probably
different. Next, go unto the FCC web pile and the FCC ID page at:
https://gullfoss2.fcc.gov/prod/oet/ [...] Search.cfm
and inscribe the FCC ID into the search boxes. If you don't get a
return, try just the first three letters. Zero and "oh" are
frequently indistinguishable on Linksys labels. It usually takes me
about 4 tries to get it right. You should find quite a bit of
internal information on the products.
