The incoming Trump administration could take action next year.
Did not know they had a 65% share in the US. They are pretty popular where I live, but people also earn a lot less than in the US
I got their 6E mesh router a while back from Costco after my dismissal experience with Netgear’s Nighthawk mesh router. The signal strength was excellent, the units were interchangeable, and the app worked without delays. All of that, and it was around $200. I’m not surprised they’re popular.
Edit: I think I read “modem” instead of router in the title when I originally wrote this. Edited for a slight bit of clarity.
Ah man, I had that nighthawk trash as well. Worst router I have ever owned. I will NEVER own any Netgear hardware again. Couldn’t even install DD WRT or other custom firmware because they used some thrash vendor for the chips that does not have Linux support.
I’ve sold about 30 sets of m4 / s4 models and they’ve been fairly good. Not entirely stable when given 30+ iot devices.
The x50 was terrible though. Many devices would try to connect to the furthest unit and refuse the closest one.
When they are cheap as chips and you can sell them for regular price it makes sense they have good coverage in the market. I remember the ones we sold had RJ45 with only 4 out of the 8 pins installed.
We use to buy them for $20 wholesale and sell them for ~$60.
