Alvarion 900:
Alvarion became Telrad. They have something called “BreezeAir 8000” which is available in 900mhz. But my faith in them was destroyed by my experience with the Compact 1000. Maybe BreezeAir is the best thing ever, but I’ll let someone else try it.

When I looked at licensing a channel the $/mhz/population made it 5 digits even for a fairly rural county. I suppose if you only need 125khz then it might work out.

But yeah, that doesn't sound very promising... 900mhz isn't going to go through rock. You should be able to get an old PMP-100 AP and SM for next to nothing if you really want to try it.

Although honestly, I'm not really all that certain 900 MHz will even cut it. This is for the city water company. They have a well up a canyon. About 1/4 mile down the road, they have a cistern. They have Internet at the cistern and want to get it connected to the well because they want to install some security cameras and a DVR at the well. Problem is that there's a rock outcropping between the two sites. Back in my WISP days, we did 900 MHz through trees. But I never tried it through rock. It was finicky enough through trees, so I'm not sure I even want to try going through a rock/hill. I figure there might be some reflection off the canyon walls that might help, but for the cost of a 450i (especially the AP), I'm not sure I want to gamble on it. That's why I was hoping for a cheap solution. Maybe I'll try the eBay route and see what I can find.

The link degrades over years as trees grow and there’s nothing much you can do about it. I would rather say “no” and pursue something else with my time. But If I had to do 900MHz I think 450i is the only reasonable choice that I’m aware of. You could hunt for old cards or old ubnt on eBay I guess.

Looking for something for a client that needs a nLOS link. All I can find is Cambium 450, which seems crazy expensive for what I'm looking for. Back in my WISP days, I seem to recall you could throw together a pretty cheap, reliable 900 MHz solution with Mikrotik, but it seems those have gone the way of the dodo. Seems UBNT doesn't sell 900 MHz stuff anymore either. Guessing the small band size probably made 900 MHz impractical for delivering the speeds generally required these days. Can anyone point me at anything?
