It’s good hear the WISPA is taking a thoughtful look.
Meanwhile, if you as a vendor refuse to fix your product, which leaves network
operators little choice but to seek other options, then you sue them along with
the other guy who came up with other options, it’s easy to see why network

Funny thing here is that this is finally a correct usage of the word hack
or hacking. Of course hacking isn't at all illegal when you are hacking
hardware that you own. Not sure where UBNT has a case here. At most there
is a possible end user EULA violation, which isn't illegal and has nothing

The only potentially legitimate issue is with the bootloader, and
then only with regard to version. The old bootloader was open
source GNU, and would load anything. Rolling back to an old
bootloader would be all you have to do to avoid the hacking claim.

We'll see what facts come out in court I suppose.
If there was actual hacking or reverse engineering going on then
Ubiquiti has a case. If it's just loading a different Linux build on
the same hardware, then I don't think they do.
They would feel compelled to try to protect their investment in
SM to AP probably wouldn't work too well with 430/450, since the AP
hardware is completely different (well, with one or two exceptions).
But anyway, yes, they most likely would sue you to at least get that info
taken down. But posting information on how to hack a radio to do something
it's not sup
Afaik it was still possible on OFDM, albeit with a JTAG. 4meg to 20meg, SM
to AP, etc. Still, it is a very similar argument and they also got lawyers
involved.
The point is simply that the licensing agreement on both vendors have
limitations on what you are allowed to do with the hardware and so
I suspect Cambium wouldn't care a whole lot at this point, since that
hardware is all pretty much obsolete. If you did something like turning a
PMP450 SM into a PTP450, then you might get a lawsuit.

I'd agree with most of this, however I do think their decision to go after
a WISP was a mistake.
