Alvarion radios were popular WISP radios from the late 1990's until 2010's.

The BreezeACCESS II radios have their own page.

Alvarion VL

VL were the first 802.11a based radios, working around an ATHEROS system running VXworks based os on a Power PC CPU. Alvarion was known for excellent RF performance and was the top of the line.

The radios consisted of a base stations AU's (ACCESS UNITS) and SU (SUBSCRIBER UNITS). The thing was there was not much difference between them, other than programing. Initially the AU's were 4k each, with 3 needed per site. The SU's could be had for ~500. Eventually they would come out with a Point-to-Point product BreezeNET B supporting 28 and 70 Mbit/s (B28, B54 and B100) UDP throughput. The borrowed some of the Hot Karlnet ideas for concatenation of frames and did decent with backhaul for the average WISP.

What they would charge for was upgrading a radio from B10 to B28 and B100, or AUs (15 clients) to a AU supporting 512 clients. Same with the SU-6 to SU-54. Well there's now a way to convert these back and forth, and even convert the SU to the AU or B100. Simply put your MAC address in and run the update with the key. The site also has the password reset and debug level access generator too.

The above it the firmware Key Generator website. This will generate keys that will make your radio become any other radio, there is no limit on them.
