NETGEAR first retail consumer router company to receive conditional FCC approval under new foreign-made router rules

NETGEAR, INC.

Conditional approval per FCC's March 2026 Covered List regulations allows NETGEAR to launch new routers and update software indefinitely.
Competitors without approval can still sell existing products but face a March 2027 software-update limitation.
NETGEAR manufactures its consumer routers in Indonesia, Vietnam and Thailand and no longer uses components from China.
All current NETGEAR Orbi and Nighthawk routers are covered by the approval; no required replacement or upgrade for customers.
