"Although Ricochet has generally operated as a service provider, this is a great match for YDI," Robert Fitzgerald, YDI's chief executive, said in a statement. "With the purchase of Ricochet, YDI further expands the breadth of its product offering with robust mesh technology products operating in the 2.4GHz and 900MHz frequencies.". YDI's customers had been asking for products in the low-frequency range, which allows wireless connections to pass through walls and other obstacles. The company had been offering only high-frequency, or line-of-sight wireless offerings. The Ricochet deal also gives YDI an Internet service option; the company had previously only been a product vendor.

Over the past several years, Ricochet has seen its ISP presence shrink to two markets, San Diego and Denver, from more than a dozen metropolitan areas. It's also undergone three ownership changes. YDI, a provider of wireless-infrastructure products, hopes to relaunch the service in New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco and the other major cities where the ISP used to operate. The company plans to retain the name "Ricochet" for the service. YDI will also make use of auxiliary products and technologies that Ricochet had developed for use with its service.
