A Dream Partnership: How CSG and 5Gstore Are Reshaping 5G Router Commerce
Crystal Lake, United States – March 28, 2026 / 5Gstore.com /
Connected Solutions Group (CSG), a national leader in wireless distribution and deployment services, has announced the private acquisition of 5Gstore and its parent company, MDG Connected Solutions. The transaction is targeted to close in February 2026, marking a significant milestone in the expansion of wireless connectivity capabilities across the United States.
The acquisition brings together two well-established organizations with complementary strengths in cellular hardware, services, and customer experience. 5Gstore will continue to operate under its existing brand, with founders Michael and Julia Ginsberg remaining in their leadership roles and overseeing day-to-day 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 core principle of the acquisition is operational continuity. 5Gstore will retain its established brand identity, and founders Michael and Julia Ginsberg will remain in their leadership roles to manage the business. This approach ensures that 5Gstore’s specialized culture – built on decades of SEO leadership, fulfillment accuracy, and world-class technical support – remains fully intact as the two organizations begin working together.
“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 full business continuity following the close of the transaction. Ordering, fulfillment, technical support, and vendor relationships will remain unchanged, with additional capabilities introduced gradually over time.
CSG has built a national reputation for large-scale wireless deployment and enablement services, including programming, staging, kitting, logistics, installation, and managed support. The company maintains deep carrier relationships and a nationwide operational footprint supporting enterprise, government, and SMB customers seeking reliable 5G Router solutions and broader connectivity infrastructure.
The acquisition is designed to expand capabilities rather than consolidate or reduce operations. Customers will benefit from additional deployment and managed service options, increased execution capacity, and broader reach – while continuing to work with the same teams and processes they rely on today. The integration of CSG’s deployment expertise with 5Gstore’s deep product knowledge and technical guidance creates a more comprehensive resource for businesses evaluating 5G Router hardware and end-to-end connectivity solutions.
For OEMs and channel partners, the combined organization offers a stronger sales engine, enhanced content and demand generation, and the ability to support national-scale execution across a wide range of wireless connectivity use cases.
Employees across both organizations will gain access to expanded growth opportunities, a larger support structure, and increased investment in their existing strengths as the two companies move forward together.
The transaction is expected to close in mid-February 2026, subject to customary closing conditions.
