Netgear plans to co-brand and sell their line of wired and and wireless networking products with China's Legend Group Limited.

"This agreement is another milestone in Netgear's plan to expand our presence in the burgeoning Asian market," said Patrick Lo, chairman and chief executive officer of Netgear. "The Legend Group is indeed a legend in China, so for it to choose to sell Netgear products is a great compliment to the huge effort Netgear puts into our product innovation to ensure high performance, easy-to-use products."

Legend Group will sell Netgear wireless products such as access points, routers, gateways, PC and PCI cards and USB adapters based on the 802.11a, 802.11b and the new 802.11g technology standards, as well as products with dual mode a/b and a/g technology. It will also sell wired products such as cable/DSL routers and fast Ethernet switches.
