CommWorks Solutions, LLC, an IP Investments Group LLC (d/b/a IPinvestments Group) plaintiff, has followed up its April 2025 case against Broadcom with a pair of additional complaints, filed separately against Texas Instruments (2:25-cv-00439) and VTech Holdings (2:25-cv-00433) in the Eastern District of Texas. Targeted with seven wireless communications patents received from Intellectual Ventures LLC (IV) is the defendants’ respective provision of Systems-on-Chip (SoCs) and/or devices (including Ethernet and Wi-Fi routers, cameras and video monitors, and gaming devices) that support IEEE 802.11-2007+, Wi-Fi Multimedia, Wi-Fi Protected Setup, and (just for TI) Wi-Fi Mesh.

Broadcom (2:25-cv-02998) is the latest defendant to be added to CommWorks Solutions, LLC’s litigation campaign over wireless communications patents received from Intellectual Ventures LLC (IV). In the new Central District of California complaint, the plaintiff targets the provision of Systems-on-Chip (SoCs), devices, and/or software that support (X)G(S)-PON broadband communications technology, IEEE 802.11-2007+, Wi-Fi Multimedia, and Wi-Fi Protected Setup. CommWorks has previously disclosed multiple entities as nonparties with an interest in the outcome of its cases in the same district, but, in connection with its new complaint, the plaintiff certifies—via a document signed by Steven W. Ritcheson of Insight, PLC, over a signature block that identifies Rozier Hardt McDonough PLLC as counsel—that there are no longer any such parties.

After suing ASUSTek late last year and both DrayTek and AVM earlier this year, CommWorks Solutions, LLC has filed another complaint, this one against Qualcomm (2:25-cv-00154), all of them in the Eastern District of Texas. This campaign over wireless communications patents, received from Intellectual Ventures LLC (IV), 20 of them to date, asserting in overlapping subsets, began back in May 2020 and has hit more than 30 defendants since. Qualcomm is targeted over the provision of systems-on-chip (SoCs) and/or products (i.e., chipsets and networking platforms) that support IEEE 802.11-2007+, Wi-Fi Multimedia, and Wi-Fi Protected Setup.

Filed against TRENDnet in the Central District of California, the last open case in the wireless communications campaign of CommWorks Solutions, LLC ended (after a noticed settlement) in June 2024. There, CommWorks identified four nonparties having a pecuniary interest in the outcome: Brainbox Innovations, LLC (its parent, a fellow IP Investments Group LLC affiliate); “Invention Investment Fund I LLC” (presumably Invention Investment Fund I, L.P.) and “Invention Investment Fund II LLC” (presumably Invention Investment Fund II, LLC), both associated with Intellectual Ventures LLC (IV); and Kheyfits Belenky LLP (litigation counsel). Now, Rozier Hardt McDonough PLLC has filed an Eastern District of Texas complaint against MediaTek (2:24-cv-00701) for CommWorks in the same campaign.

CommWorks Solutions, LLC has sued Extreme Networks (6:23-cv-00835) in a Western District of Texas complaint targeting the provision of a wide variety of networking products (e.g., access points, gateways, routers, and software). The new case follows by two weeks separate Eastern District of Texas complaints filed in the other CommWorks campaign, one against each of Open Text (2:23-cv-00533) and Sangoma Technologies (2:23-cv-00534). The accused products there are the RightFax and PBXact Cloud email systems, respectively.

So far in November, CommWorks Solutions, LLC, a plaintiff associated with IP Investments Group LLC, has sued CommScope (ARRIS) (2:23-cv-00510) in the Eastern District of Texas and Hon Hai Precision Industry (Belkin, Linksys) (2:23-cv-09229) in the Central District of California over a wide array of networking products (e.g., access points, gateways, and routers). The seven patents-in-suit, asserted in overlapping sets, are broadly directed to wireless communications; they are among 16—each received from Intellectual Ventures LLC (IV)—that have been litigated by the plaintiff against over 20 defendants to date.

So far in February, CommWorks Solutions, LLC, a plaintiff associated with IP Investments Group LLC, has expanded its first litigation campaign with a suit against Hitron Technologies (6:23-cv-00063) in the Eastern District of Texas and a trio of cases filed separately against TP-Link (4:23-cv-00086), Ubee Interactive (6:23-cv-00064), and ZyXEL (6:23-cv-00065) in the Western District of Texas. The plaintiff asserts in each complaint six patents broadly directed to wireless communications, with the defendants accused of infringement through the provision of a wide variety of networking products (e.g., access points, gateways, routers, and/or related software). Since initiating this campaign in May 2020, the plaintiff has sued nearly 20 defendants over its portfolio of former Intellectual Ventures LLC (IV) patents.

In a new Western District of Texas complaint, CommWorks Solutions, LLC, a plaintiff associated with IPInvestments Group LLC (d/b/a IPinvestments Group), has accused Frontier Communications (6:22-cv-01268) of infringing eight patents broadly directed to wireless communications. The defendant is targeted over the provision or use of various networking products (e.g., access points, gateways, routers, and related software), including certain Ciena and Juniper Networks-branded products.

CommWorks Solutions, LLC, a plaintiff associated with IPInvestments Group LLC (d/b/a IPinvestments Group), has expanded its first litigation campaign with a Western District of Texas suit against Charter Communications (Spectrum Gulf Coast) (6:22-cv-00156). The complaint targets the provision and/or use of various networking hardware and software products, several of which include devices manufactured by Ciena, Commscope (ARRIS), or Juniper Networks. Sixteen patents, each acquired from Intellectual Ventures LLC (IV), have been asserted in the campaign so far, with six at issue in CommWorks’s latest complaint.

CommWorks Solutions, LLC, an IPInvestments Group LLC (d/b/a IPinvestments Group) plaintiff, has opened up a second litigation campaign by suing a defendant from the first, Comcast (2:21-cv-00459), this time in the Eastern District of Texas. Meanwhile, a second IPinvestments Group plaintiff, DigiMedia Tech, LLC, has also sued Comcast (6:21-cv-01341), back in the Western District of Texas though. Combined, the two suits assert an additional five patents against Comcast, two by CommWorks Solutions, three by DigiMedia Tech, all received from Intellectual Ventures LLC (IV).
