Catalog NETGEAR 2025

NETGEAR is an American company founded in 1996 by Patrick Lo. It specializes in manufacturing a range of networking equipment for home users, small and medium-sized businesses, as well as for service providers. The company's headquarters is located in San Jose, California, USA.

NETGEAR initially focused on developing networking products such as routers, switches, and adapters, which became popular due to their quality and ease of use. The company quickly captured the market, largely by betting on wireless networks, which were just beginning their rise at that time, and there was a noticeable lack of equipment available in stores.

According to the brand's representatives, one of NETGEAR's key features is its focus on innovation. The company continuously expands its product line, offering solutions for smart homes, surveillance systems, and networking devices for gamers. For instance, their Nighthawk product line has become a benchmark for powerful and reliable home routers in some countries. NETGEAR is also actively developing data storage solutions, releasing NAS systems for home users and small businesses. However, the company has faced issues as well. In January 2017, a vulnerability was discovered in some NETGEAR products that allowed unauthorized access to routers. However, NETGEAR promptly issued security recommendations and firmware updates to address the problem.

Over the years, NETGEAR has become one of the leading companies in the networking equipment markets of several countries. Thanks to a good balance of cost and quality, its products are trusted by many users, both at home and in offices. In addition to its main brand, the company also owns several other, less well-known brands.
