I believe the how-to needs to be clarified/corrected right at the start. I'm stepping thru it, and I get to doing
lspci
. I get this:

The first set of digits do NOT look like your USB "ID" numbers, and they get me garbage on Google. Therefore, I'm guessing they arent the ID mentioned, and that, for this purpose, they are garbage. Fortunately, I also get
