A system and method for the network operation of a universal remote controller (URC) and the URC for realizing said system have been disclosed in the invention, said system comprises: a user service subsystem, a data storing and exchanging device and a user operation subsystem. The network operation method for said URC comprises: collecting the parameters of an existing user's remote controller (RC) via a RC sampling device, analyzing and processing the parameter data as a code program, and transferring to the server device via the Internet in order to store and exchange the data; reading the required program from the server device by the URC via the user terminal device and the Internet to realize the function of the URC. In said URC, the URC is provided with a USB interface circuit for downloading the data on the network into the URC. The invention solves the problem of a number of confused RCs in modern families The network services of the URC can be provided so that a uniform way can be found for the after-service of a plurality of types of RCs.
