The company focuses on wireless hardware modems and routers and partners with a range of network providers, including T-Mobile, AT&T, Sprint, Verizon, UScellular and Rogers. Inseego was founded in 1996 by Dan Mondor and is traded on the NASDAQ under the INSG ticker.

Inseego's fourth generation (4G) Long-Term Evolution (LTE) and 5G New Radio (NR) products include mobile hotspots, home and business routers, USB modems, telematics, and mobile tracking services. The company previously introduced the first 2G modems for mobile broadband and created the first MiFi hotspots for use in the first cellular Amazon Kindle.

The company also operates and provides Ctrack, a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) that allows businesses to track and manage assets; namely business fleets associated with aviation, construction, government, and transport. Ctrack also supports device management solutions, which allows customers' wireless asset selection, deployment, and management.
