        It’s not a ruling, the FCC was ordered decided that they’re not going to certify any new foreign made home routing equipment. No certification means the radios won’t be legal for consumers to operate

        This isn’t a law or judicial ruling, it’s policy

        Nah, “conditional approval” is written into the regulation. You might know this wording better as “pay us a large sum and we’ll give you approval.”

          Based on the regulation as written, approval is granted only if the company:

          • Fully reveals their entire supply chain
          • All business relationships and contracts
          • Justifies why they aren’t producing in the US
          • And provides a detailed step-by-step plan with a fixed schedule for moving production to the US
          • Which is then monitored by the government
