Legacy Meets Scale: The Acquisition Bringing 5G Router Expertise to a National Stage
Crystal Lake, United States – March 28, 2026 / 5Gstore.com /
Connected Solutions Group (CSG), a national leader in wireless distribution and deployment services headquartered in Richmond, VA, has announced the private acquisition of 5Gstore and its parent company, MDG Connected Solutions. The transaction is expected to close in February 2026, marking a significant milestone in the evolution of cellular connectivity solutions across the United States.
The acquisition unites two well-established organizations with complementary strengths spanning cellular hardware, deployment services, and customer experience. 5Gstore will continue to operate under its recognized brand, with co-founders Michael and Julia Ginsberg maintaining their leadership roles and overseeing daily operations following the close of the deal.
“At this stage in our careers, we weren’t simply looking for an exit,” said 5Gstore founder Mike Ginsberg, “but a partner who sees the value in what we have built and has the desire to take it to the next level. Julia and I had opportunities over the years, but decided we wanted to do right by our employees and the business we have built to ensure its future success. We believe the team at CSG not only values our product and our team but has the creativity to move our brand forward into further connectivity generations.”
A foundational principle of this acquisition is operational continuity. 5Gstore will preserve its established brand identity while Michael and Julia Ginsberg remain in their respective leadership positions to guide the business. This approach is intended to protect the specialized culture that 5Gstore has cultivated over decades – one built on SEO leadership, fulfillment precision, and a reputation for delivering world-class technical support to customers seeking advanced 5G Router solutions and broader cellular connectivity products.
“To say this is a dream come true may sound hyperbolic,” said CSG CEO Michael Pittman, “but this is something we have talked about and ideated around for many years. The idea of combining forces with industry legends Mike and Julia Ginsberg – founders and operators of 5Gstore – to collaborate and build on each other’s strengths and weaknesses and form a unified customer-experience giant has been a literal dream. And here we are,” he continued.
Customers, partners, and manufacturers can expect seamless business continuity following the completion of the transaction. Ordering processes, fulfillment operations, technical support, and existing vendor relationships will remain unchanged, with enhanced capabilities introduced progressively over time as the two organizations integrate their respective strengths.
CSG has established a national reputation for delivering large-scale wireless deployment and enablement services, including device programming, staging, kitting, logistics management, installation, and managed support. The company maintains deep carrier relationships and operates a nationwide infrastructure that serves enterprise, government, and SMB customers across a wide range of connectivity needs – including deployments centered on the latest 5G Router technology.
The acquisition is structured to expand capabilities rather than consolidate or reduce existing operations. Customers are expected to benefit from additional deployment and managed service options, greater execution capacity, and a broader operational reach – all while continuing to work with the familiar teams and established processes they rely on today. For those in the market for a 5G Router or related hardware, the combined organization is positioned to offer a more comprehensive experience from product selection through deployment and ongoing support.
For OEMs and channel partners, the combined organization presents a stronger sales engine, enhanced content development and demand generation capabilities, and the operational depth required to support national-scale execution across diverse customer segments.
Employees across both organizations stand to benefit from expanded professional growth opportunities, a larger organizational support structure, and increased investment directed toward strengthening existing capabilities and teams.
The transaction is anticipated to close in mid-February 2026, subject to customary closing conditions. Learn more about 5Gstore and its full range of connectivity solutions.
