WiWavelength Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Goodbye, Sierra. Hello, Netgear. The company that coined the term AirCard will make AirCards no more. Sierra Wireless is selling its 3G/4G modem business to NetGear, which take over the manufacture of its line of mobile hotspots, wireless dongles and data cards. http://gigaom.com/20...rnet-of-things/ AJ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WiWavelength Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 And if you missed it a few days ago, Cisco is selling Linksys to Belkin. AJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dedub Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I had good luck with linksys until cisco took over. Netgear bought infrant/readynas a few years ago, came out with some good newer models (then simultaneously fractured the software side, dev team, and the community). The existing readynas board is on lifesupport, and I wouldn't be surprised if it ever suddenly disappeared into the ether, which would be an unfortunate loss for past, present and future customers. From what I understand, about the same happened with their media player devices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
