The US bans all new foreign-made network routers

The Federal Communications Commission has banned new foreign-made consumer network routers, deeming them a security risk. While previously purchased routers are unaffected, new models must meet stricter requirements, potentially impacting companies like TP-Link, NetGear, Eero, and Google Nest, which manufacture overseas. The policy aims to reduce US dependence on foreign components for national security and economic reasons.
