Connected Solutions Group (CSG), a national wireless distribution and deployment services provider, has announced the private acquisition of 5Gstore and its parent company, MDG Connected Solutions. The transaction, targeted to close in February 2026, aims to expand wireless connectivity capabilities across the United States by merging two 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 leadership roles to oversee day-to-day operations. Mike Ginsberg stated that the decision was not solely about an exit but about finding a partner that values the business and has the creativity to move the brand forward. The acquisition ensures operational continuity, retaining 5Gstore's specialized culture built on SEO leadership, fulfillment accuracy, and technical support for products including the latest 5G Router hardware.
CSG CEO Michael Pittman described the acquisition as a dream come true, emphasizing the collaboration with industry legends Mike and Julia Ginsberg to form a unified customer-experience giant. Customers, partners, and manufacturers should expect full business continuity, with ordering, fulfillment, technical support, and vendor relationships remaining unchanged. Additional capabilities will be introduced progressively as the organizations integrate.
CSG has built a strong 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. 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 national reach, while continuing to work with the same trusted teams and processes. This includes continued access to industry-leading 5G Router solutions and cellular connectivity products that 5Gstore is known for.
For OEMs and channel partners, the combined organization offers a stronger sales engine, enhanced content and demand generation capabilities, and the ability to support national-scale execution with greater efficiency and reach than either company could achieve independently. Employees across both organizations will gain access to expanded growth opportunities and increased investment in existing strengths.
The transaction is expected to close in mid-February 2026, subject to customary closing conditions.
