4015 Miranda Avenue, First Floor
Palo Alto, California 94304


PROXY STATEMENT

April 14, 2006


        The accompanying proxy is solicited on behalf of the Board of Directors of Vyyo Inc., a Delaware corporation ("us," "we" or "our"), for use at the 2006 annual meeting of stockholders to be held on May 8 at 1:00 p.m., Eastern Standard Time (the "Annual Meeting"), at the New York City offices of our corporate counsel, Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP, located at Four Times Square, New York, New York 10036 or any adjournment or postponement of the Annual Meeting. This Proxy Statement and the accompanying form of proxy card are first being mailed to stockholders on or about April 14, 2006. Our Annual Report for the 2005 fiscal year is enclosed with this Proxy Statement.

Record Date; Quorum

        Only holders of record of our common stock at the close of business on March 28, 2006 are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. At the close of business on the record date, we had approximately 17,656,964 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. A majority of the shares outstanding on the record date, present in person or represented by proxy, will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting.

Effect of Abstentions and "Broker Non-Votes"

        If a stockholder indicates on the proxy card that the stockholder wishes to abstain from voting, including a broker holding its customers' shares of record who cause abstentions to be recorded, these shares are considered present and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. These shares will count toward determining whether or not a quorum is present. However, these shares will not be taken into account in determining the outcome of any of the proposals.

        If a stockholder does not give a proxy to the stockholder's broker with instructions as to how to vote the shares, the broker has authority under New York Stock Exchange rules to vote those shares for or against "routine" matters, such as the election of directors to our Board of Directors and the ratification of Kesselman & Kesselman CPAs (ISR), a member of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Limited, as our independent registered public accounting firm. Brokers cannot vote on their customers' behalf on "non-routine" proposals. The only matters of which we are aware that will be voted on at the Annual Meeting are "routine" matters. These rules apply to us notwithstanding the fact that shares of our common stock are traded on The Nasdaq Stock Market. If a broker votes shares that are unvoted by its customers for or against a "routine" proposal, these shares are counted for the purpose of establishing a quorum and also will be counted for the purpose of determining the outcome of such "routine" proposals. If a broker chooses to leave these shares unvoted, even on "routine" matters, the shares will be counted for the purpose of establishing a quorum, but not for determining the outcome of any of the proposals.

Voting Rights; Required Vote

        You are entitled to one vote for each share of our common stock that you held as of the record date. Directors will be elected by a plurality of the shares of common stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. You do not have the right to cumulate your votes in the election of directors. Approval of Proposal No. 2



ratifying the appointment of Kesselman & Kesselman CPAs (ISR), a member of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Limited, as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2006 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares represented and voting at the Annual Meeting, either in person or by proxy, provided that the affirmative votes must not be less than a majority of the required quorum for the Annual Meeting. The inspector of elections appointed for the Annual Meeting will separately tabulate the relevant affirmative and negative votes, abstentions and broker non-votes for each proposal.

Voting of Proxies

        If you are unable to attend the Annual Meeting, you may vote by proxy. The enclosed proxy is solicited by our Board of Directors and, when the proxy card is returned and properly completed, the proxy will be voted as directed by you. You are urged to specify your choices on the enclosed proxy card. If you sign and return the proxy, but do not vote on a proposal, in the absence of contrary instructions, the shares of common stock represented by your proxy will be voted FOR the election of management's nominees for Class III directors listed in Proposal No. 1 and FOR the ratification of the appointment of Kesselman & Kesselman CPAs (ISR), a member of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Limited, as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2006.

Adjournment of Annual Meeting

        If a quorum is not present to transact business at the Annual Meeting or if we do not receive sufficient votes in favor of the proposals by the date of the Annual Meeting, the persons named as proxies may propose one or more adjournments of the Annual Meeting to permit solicitation of proxies. Any adjournment would require the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting.

Revocability of Proxy

        If you give a proxy, you have the power to revoke it at any time before its exercise. You may revoke a previously-given proxy by signing and returning a proxy card with a later date, by delivering to our Corporate Secretary a written notice of revocation that the proxy is revoked or by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person. If you have appointed a proxy, your mere presence at the Annual Meeting will not revoke the previous appointment. Please note, however, that if your shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee and you wish to vote at the Annual Meeting, you must bring to the Annual Meeting a letter from your broker, bank or other nominee confirming your beneficial ownership of the shares and that the broker, bank or other nominee is not voting your shares at the Annual Meeting.

Solicitation of Proxies

        We will bear the cost of soliciting proxies. Copies of solicitation materials will be furnished to brokerage houses, fiduciaries and custodians holding shares in their names that are beneficially owned by others to forward to such beneficial owners. We may reimburse such persons for the costs they incur to forward the solicitation material to such beneficial owners. We may supplement the original solicitation of proxies by mail through solicitation by telephone, facsimile or other means by our directors, officers, employees or agents. We will not pay additional compensation to these individuals for any such services. Following the original mailing of the proxies and other soliciting materials, we will request brokers, custodians, nominees and other record holders to forward copies of the proxy and other soliciting materials to persons for whom they hold shares and to request authority for the exercise of proxies. In such cases, we, upon the request of the record holders, will reimburse such holders for their reasonable expenses.

PROPOSAL NO. 1—ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

        Our current Board of Directors consists of eight members, and is divided into three classes: Class I, Class II and Class III. The members of each class of directors serve staggered three-year terms. The Board of Directors is currently composed of three Class I directors (Davidi Gilo, Avraham Fischer and John P. Griffin), whose terms will expire upon the election and qualification of directors at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2007; two Class II directors (Lewis S. Broad and Neill H. Brownstein), whose terms will expire upon the election and qualification of directors at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2008; and three Class III directors (Ronn Benatoff, Samuel L. Kaplan and Alan Zimmerman), whose terms expire upon the election and qualification of directors at this year's Annual Meeting and who have been nominated to continue to serve as Class III directors for three-year terms following this year's Annual Meeting.

        At the Annual Meeting, you will be asked to elect three Class III directors, each of whom will serve a three-year term until the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2009 or until a successor is elected or appointed and qualified or until the director's earlier resignation or removal. It is intended that proxies will be voted FOR the three nominees named below for election to our Board of Directors unless authority to vote for any such nominee is withheld. Each nominee is currently a director. Each nominee has been recommended for nomination by our Nominating Committee and has agreed to serve if elected, and our Board of Directors has no reason to believe that any nominee will be unavailable or will decline to serve. In the event, however, that any nominee is unable or declines to serve as a director at the time of the Annual Meeting, the proxies will be voted for any nominee who is designated by the current Board of Directors to fill the vacancy.

Independent Directors

        Each of our directors, other than Messrs. Fischer and Gilo, qualifies as "independent" in accordance with the rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market. The Nasdaq independence definition includes a series of objective tests, including that a director may not be our employee and that the director has not engaged in various types of business dealings with us. In addition, as further required by the Nasdaq rules, the Board of Directors has made a subjective determination as to each independent director that no relationships exist which, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of a director's independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

Board of Directors Meetings and Committees

        During 2005, our Board of Directors met six times, including telephone conference meetings, and acted by written consent three times. No director attended fewer than 75% of the aggregate of the total number of meetings of the Board of Directors and the total number of meetings held by all committees of the Board of Directors on which the director served.

        Our Board of Directors currently has three standing committees: the Compensation Committee, the Audit Committee and the Nominating Committee. All committees operate under written charters approved by the Board of Directors, which are available at our website at www.vyyo.com/Investors/Corporate Governance. Each of these charters also is available in print to any stockholder upon request.

        We strongly encourage directors to attend our annual meeting of stockholders. Each of our directors attended the 2005 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (five in person and three telephonically).

        Compensation Committee.    The current members of our Compensation Committee are Messrs. Broad (Chairman) and Zimmerman. The Compensation Committee met six times and acted by unanimous written consent one time during 2005. The Compensation Committee establishes our executive compensation policy, determines the salary and bonuses of our executive officers and approves stock option grants for our executive officers.

        Audit Committee.    The current members of our Audit Committee are Messrs. Brownstein (Chairman), Broad and Kaplan, each of whom is an independent director as defined by the rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market. Mr. Brownstein serves as our "audit committee financial expert," as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Audit Committee met 11 times and did not act by written consent during 2005. The Audit Committee assists the full Board of Directors in its general oversight of our financial reporting, internal controls and audit functions, and is directly responsible for approval of related party transactions and the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of our independent registered public accounting firm.

        Nominating Committee.    The current members of our Nominating Committee are Messrs. Zimmerman (Chairman), Broad and Kaplan, each of whom is an independent director as defined by the rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market. The Nominating Committee met one time and did not act by written consent during 2005. The Nominating Committee identifies and recommends to our Board of Directors individuals qualified to serve as directors, reviews the suitability for continued service as a director of each member of the Board of Directors when such director's term expires and periodically reviews the size of our Board of Directors and recommends any changes to the full Board of Directors.

Consideration of Director Nominees

        Director Qualifications.    The goal of the Nominating Committee is to ensure that our Board of Directors possesses a variety of perspectives and skills derived from high-quality business and professional experience. The Nominating Committee seeks to achieve a balance of knowledge, experience and capability on our Board of Directors. To this end, the Nominating Committee seeks nominees with high professional and personal ethics and values, an understanding of our business and industry, diversity of business experience and expertise, broad-based business acumen and the ability to think strategically. In addition, the Nominating Committee considers the level of the candidate's commitment to active participation as a director, both at board and committee meetings and otherwise. Although the Nominating Committee uses these and other criteria to evaluate potential nominees, it has no stated minimum criteria for nominees. When appropriate, the Nominating Committee may retain executive recruitment firms to assist in identifying suitable candidates. The Nominating Committee does not use different standards to evaluate nominees depending on whether they are proposed by our directors and management or by our stockholders.

        Stockholder Nominees.    The Nominating Committee will consider director candidates recommended by stockholders. If a stockholder would like to recommend a director candidate for the next annual meeting of stockholders, the stockholder must deliver the recommendation to our Corporate Secretary at our principal executive offices no less than 60 days nor more than 90 days prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting of stockholders; provided, however, if the next annual meeting of stockholders occurs on a date more than 30 days earlier or later than the anniversary of the prior year's annual meeting of stockholders, then the notice must be received no later than the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which notice of the date of annual meeting was mailed or public disclosure of the date of annual meeting was made, whichever first occurs.

Communication with our Board of Directors

        You may contact our Board of Directors by mail at the Board of Directors, Vyyo Inc., c/o Corporate Secretary, 4015 Miranda Avenue, First Floor, Palo Alto, California 94304. An employee will forward these letters directly to the Board of Directors. We reserve the right not to forward to the Board of Directors any abusive, threatening or otherwise inappropriate materials.

Compensation of Directors

        Directors serving on our Board of Directors do not receive any cash compensation for their service. Directors are reimbursed for their out-of-pocket expenses incurred in attending meetings of our Board of Directors and committees on which they may serve.

        Under our Third Amended and Restated 2000 Employee and Consultant Equity Incentive Plan (the "2000 Plan"), each non-employee director receives an initial option to purchase 25,000 shares of our common stock on the date on which he or she becomes a director, at the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant. These options have a 10-year term and vest over a four-year period. Thereafter, on the date immediately following each annual meeting of our stockholders, each of

8



our non-employee directors receives an annual stock option grant to purchase 7,500 shares of our common stock, provided such director has served on our Board of Directors for at least six months on such date. These options have a 10-year term and vest immediately upon the date of grant. Accordingly, on March 15, 2005, each of Messrs. Benatoff, Broad, Brownstein, Fischer, Griffin, Kaplan and Zimmerman were granted options to purchase 7,500 shares of our common stock, at an exercise price of $7.31 per share.

        In addition, under the 2000 Plan, each non-employee director receives a quarterly option grant to purchase 3,125 shares of our common stock, other than the Chairman of our Audit Committee, who, given his additional responsibilities, receives a quarterly option grant to purchase 4,375 shares of our common stock. Options granted to non-employee directors on January 20, 2005 and April 18, 2005 have a five-year term; options granted to non-employee directors on August 10, 2005 and thereafter have a 10-year term. All such options vest immediately on the date of grant. The exercise prices for these options are equal to the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant. Accordingly, the quarterly options were granted on the following dates with the following exercise prices per share: (a) January 20, 2005: $7.50; (b) April 18, 2005: $7.34; (c) August 10, 2005: $6.75; (d) November 10, 2005: $4.82; and (e) March 9, 2006: $7.30.

There is no assurance that the actual stock price appreciation over the option term will be at the 5% and 10% levels of assumed annual rates of compounded stock price appreciation or at any other defined level. Unless the market price of our common stock appreciates over the option term, no value will be realized from the option grants made to our named executive officers.

(3)
These options vest and become exercisable when the price of our common stock closes at or above $15.00, for a period of 10 (consecutive or non-consecutive) trading days out of any 30 consecutive trading days, so long as the optionee remains our employee on the 10th day of such period.

(4)

(7)
These options vest and become exercisable at the rate of 25% of the shares upon achievement of performance objectives, with the balance becoming vested in 36 equal monthly installments. Our management determined that Mr. Hochbaum satisfied the performance objectives; accordingly, 25% of these shares have vested as of April 7, 2006.

At the time of grant, these options were to vest and become exercisable at the rate of 25% of the shares on November 1, 2005, with the balance becoming vested in 36 equal installments. As a result of the termination of Mr. Keating's employment, 100,000 of these options were vested as of October 31, 2005, with the remaining 300,000 immediately cancelled.

Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans

        The following chart sets forth certain information as of December 31, 2005, with respect to our three stock option plans: 1996 Equity Incentive Plan, 1999 Employee and Consultant Equity Incentive Plan and Third Amended and Restated 2000 Employee and Consultant Equity Incentive Plan (the "2000 Plan"). Currently, we only grant stock options from our 2000 Plan.

        Our stockholders have approved each of our option plans. The number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2000 Plan automatically increases on January 1st of each year by the lesser of (i) 1,000,000 shares, or (ii) 10% of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year. On January 20, 2005, our Board of Directors terminated our Employee Stock Purchase Plan due to the potential impact of then recent accounting pronouncements.

Option Exercises in the 2005 Fiscal Year and Fiscal Year-End Option Values

        The following table presents information concerning option exercises during the 2005 fiscal year and unexercised in-the-money-options held as of December 31, 2005 by the only named executive officer who exercised options during the year. The amount shown in the column entitled "Value Realized" is based on the closing price of our common stock as quoted on The Nasdaq Stock Market on the exercise date minus the exercise price of the option, multiplied by the number of shares subject to the option. The amounts shown in the column entitled "Value of Unexercised In-the-Money Options at Fiscal Year-End" are based on the closing price of our common stock on The Nasdaq Stock Market on December 30, 2005 ($4.83) minus the exercise price of the option (if less than $4.83), multiplied by the number of shares subject to the option. These values have not been, and may never be, realized.

In connection with Mr. Corwin's termination of employment, certain of his outstanding stock options were accelerated. Accordingly, as of January 30, 2006, Mr. Corwin held fully-vested options to purchase 337,617 shares of our common stock. All other outstanding stock options as of January 30, 2006 were cancelled.

Employment Agreements

        Other than as described below, we have no written employment agreements governing the length of service of our executive officers, or any severance or change of control agreements with our executive officers. Each of our executive officers (including each officer who serves under an employment agreement or offer letter) serve on an at-will basis.

        Davidi Gilo.    On February 10, 2006, we entered into a new employment agreement with Mr. Gilo, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors, which replaces and supersedes his employment agreement dated as of January 1, 2000 and as amended August 1, 2001.

        Mr. Gilo's employment agreement is for a three-year term, with automatic renewals thereafter for terms of one year each, subject to termination upon prior notice by either party. Under his agreement, in exchange for 30 hours of services per week, Mr. Gilo will receive an annual base salary of $400,000, which will be reviewed on or before December 31, 2006 and thereafter based on Mr. Gilo's services and our financial results. Mr. Gilo is eligible to receive employee benefits available to all employees, is eligible to participate in bonus plans that may be adopted by our Board of Directors and may receive an additional bonus based on his performance and the performance of the company each year as determined by our Board of Directors or Compensation Committee. In addition, Mr. Gilo is eligible for stock options that we may award, and he will accrue 30 days of paid vacation for each 12 months of employment.

        If Mr. Gilo is terminated without "Cause" (as defined in his agreement), all of Mr. Gilo's unvested options will vest immediately and he will receive a severance payment equal to the greater of (a) the full amount of compensation that he could have expected under his employment agreement (without bonus) through the end of the term; or (b) 18 months of his then-current salary without bonus. If Mr. Gilo is terminated without Cause after the initial three-year term, all of Mr. Gilo's unvested options will vest immediately and he will receive a severance payment of 18 months of his then-current salary without bonus. If we terminate Mr. Gilo for Cause, Mr. Gilo will receive a severance payment equal to three

18



months of his then-current salary without bonus. If Mr. Gilo voluntarily terminates his employment, he will receive a severance payment of nine months of his then current salary without bonus.

        Avner Kol.    Effective November 1, 2005, we named Avner Kol as the Chief Operating Officer of Xtend Networks Inc. ("Xtend"), our wholly-owned subsidiary. Mr. Kol's offer letter provides that he will receive an annual salary of $250,000 and will be eligible for our standard benefit package, including 20 days of paid time off. Beginning February 1, 2006 and during each year that Mr. Kol remains an employee, he, his spouse and his dependent children are entitled to one round trip coach class air ticket to Israel at our expense. Upon Mr. Kol's termination for any reason, he may be entitled to receive the reasonable cost of moving expenses from Atlanta, Georgia to Israel up to $12,000. In addition, if Mr. Kol is terminated without cause, he will be entitled to a severance payment equal to the sum of (a) three months salary (without bonus); and (b) one month salary for every 12-month period of employment, not to exceed six months salary.

Separation Agreements

        Michael Corwin.    On May 13, 2005, we entered into a letter agreement with Mr. Corwin, our then President and Chief Operating Officer, confirming that he would take a leave of absence for health reasons for a period of up to nine months. Following this change in status, Mr. Corwin remained associated with us but was no longer a reporting person under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Following Mr. Corwin's notification to us that he would not be returning to full-time employment, we entered into a separation agreement and release with Mr. Corwin effective January 27, 2006. Mr. Corwin's separation agreement provided for a total one-time payment of $125,000. Beginning February 1, 2006 and continuing until January 31, 2007, we have engaged Mr. Corwin as a consultant to perform certain services. As consideration for these services, we pay Mr. Corwin $1,296 per month, constituting the cost of health insurance premiums for his consulting period. In addition, the vesting of 79,168 of Mr. Corwin's outstanding options to purchase shares of our common stock was accelerated, so that, when combined with his other vested options, Mr. Corwin held fully-vested options to purchase 337,617 shares of our common stock. The vesting of all of Mr. Corwin's remaining outstanding options ceased and he forfeited any and all rights to such options. Mr. Corwin will be allowed to exercise his vested options (and only the vested options) no later than May 1, 2007.

        William Keating.    Effective October 31, 2005, William Keating resigned as Chief Executive Officer of Xtend. In accordance with the terms of his separation agreement and release, Mr. Keating received a total lump-sum payment of $75,000. In addition, 25% of the total outstanding stock options held by Mr. Keating (175,000 stock options) immediately vested, with all of his remaining outstanding stock options being forfeited. From November 1, 2005 through February 28, 2006, Mr. Keating provided consulting services to us in exchange for $25,000 plus the cost of health insurance premiums for him and his family. In addition, Mr. Keating was eligible to receive a bonus of $100,000 subject to successful completion of certain milestones to be agreed to by us and Mr. Keating. No such bonus was earned or paid in 2005. In accordance with the terms of his stock option agreement, Mr. Keating is entitled to exercise his vested options no later than May 29, 2006.

        Andrew P. Fradkin.    On February 17, 2006, we entered into a separation agreement and release with Mr. Fradkin, our General Counsel and Secretary, which became effective February 25, 2006. In connection with his separation, we paid Mr. Fradkin a total one-time payment of $110,000. Beginning February 18, 2006 and continuing until December 31, 2006, Mr. Fradkin is providing consulting services to us. In exchange for these services, we will pay Mr. Fradkin a total of $42,000 and $1,295.55 per month, constituting the cost of health insurance premiums for the term of his consulting. During his consulting period, Mr. Fradkin's outstanding stock options continue to vest according to their terms. Mr. Fradkin will be allowed to exercise his options that have vested on or before December 31, 2006 (and only the vested options) no later than March 31, 2007. We also paid Mr. Fradkin a $50,000 bonus upon the closing of our recent $25 million financing on March 23, 2006.

        Hillel Weinstein.    We previously entered into an employment agreement with Hillel Weinstein under which he served as Chairman of the Board of Xtend Networks Ltd. As required by his employment agreement, we paid Mr. Weinstein his annual salary for 2005 and a one-time relocation bonus of $1.2 million. As permitted under the employment agreement, we terminated his employment upon six months' notice.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

        The Compensation Committee currently consists of Messrs. Broad and Zimmerman, neither of whom has any interlocking relationships, as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Compensation Committee Report on Executive Compensation

        The information contained in this report shall not be deemed to be "soliciting material" or to be "filed" with the Securities and Exchange Commission, nor shall such information be incorporated by reference in any of our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or subject to the liabilities of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, except to the extent that we specifically incorporate it by reference into a document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

    Compensation Policy

        Our compensation policy as established by the Compensation Committee is that executive officers' total annual cash compensation should vary with our performance, and that long-term incentives awarded to such officers should be aligned with the interest of our stockholders. Our executive compensation program is designed to attract and retain executive officers who will contribute to our long-term success, to reward executive officers who contribute to our financial performance and to link executive officer compensation and stockholder interests through the grant of stock options.

    Components of Compensation

        Compensation of executive officers consists of three principal components: salary, bonus and long-term incentive compensation through the grant of stock options.

        Salary.    The base salaries of all executive officers are reviewed annually and, subject to minimum amounts specified in any applicable employment agreements, are set by the Compensation Committee. When setting base salary levels, in a manner consistent with the policy outlined above, the Compensation Committee considers competitive market conditions for executive compensation, our performance and the individual performance of the executive officer.

        Bonus.    The Compensation Committee also evaluates the performance and sets discretionary bonuses payable to the executive officers, subject to any applicable employment agreements.

        Long-Term Incentive Compensation.    We believe that option grants (a) align executive interests with stockholder interests by creating a direct link between compensation and stockholder return, (b) give executives a significant, long-term interest in our success, and (c) help retain key executive officers in a competitive market for executive talent.

        Our stock option plans authorize the Compensation Committee to grant stock options to employees and consultants, including executive officers. Option grants are made from time to time to executive officers whose contributions have or are expected to have a significant impact on our long-term performance. Our determination of whether option grants are appropriate each year is based upon individual performance measures established for each individual. Options are not necessarily granted to each executive officer during each year. In the 2005 fiscal year, we granted options to

20



certain of our executive officers which are tied to appreciation in our stock price. These grants are described in "—Option Grants in 2005 Fiscal Year" above. Although permitted by our equity compensation plans, we did not grant any shares of restricted stock during the 2005 fiscal year.

    Compensation of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer

        As described above in "Employment Agreements," the base salary and bonus of Davidi Gilo, our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, are provided in his employment agreement and are subject to certain changes in the discretion of the Compensation Committee. The base salary specified in Mr. Gilo's employment agreement, and the long-term incentive compensation in the form of options granted to him, were established by negotiations with Mr. Gilo. In determining the amount of the salary and other compensation paid to Mr. Gilo, the Compensation Committee considered factors including the performance of Mr. Gilo and his contributions to the company, the level of salary and long-term incentive compensation paid to persons in similar positions at other companies in our industry and the considerable competition for executive talent within the industry. Mr. Gilo's employment agreement provides for an annual base salary of $400,000, which is an increase from a base salary of $300,000 per year in his prior employment agreement. Mr. Gilo's bonus under his employment agreement is based on each of his performance and that of the company each year. For the 2005 fiscal year, we did not pay a bonus to Mr. Gilo.

        In the 2005 fiscal year, the Compensation Committee granted 375,000 options to Mr. Gilo, the vesting of which are tied to appreciation in our stock price. These grants are described in "—Option Grants in 2005 Fiscal Year" above. In addition, on February 10, 2006, the Compensation Committee granted Mr. Gilo options to purchase 900,000 shares of our common stock, 300,000 of which vested upon the closing of our recent $25 million financing on March 23, 2006. The remaining options vest as follows: (a) 300,000 shares vest when the price of our common stock closes at or above $10.44 for a period of any 22 (consecutive or non-consecutive) trading days, and (b) 300,000 shares vest when the price of our common stock closes at or above $15.66 for a period of any 22 (consecutive or non-consecutive) trading days, so long as Mr. Gilo remains with us at such times.

    Compensation Policy Regarding Deductibility

        Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, disallows a tax deduction to publicly-held companies for compensation paid to certain executive officers, to the extent that the compensation exceeds $1 million per officer in any one year. The limitation applies only to compensation which is not considered to be "performance-based," either because it is not tied to the attainment of performance milestones or because it is not paid pursuant to a stockholder-approved plan. Our equity incentive plans comply with Section 162(m) by limiting stock awards to named executive officers and/or by making stock awards performance-based. The compensation treated as non-performance based under Section 162(m) did not exceed the $1 million limit for our executive officers for the 2005 fiscal year, other than for Mr. Weinstein. The total cash compensation paid to Mr. Weinstein in the 2005 fiscal year included a $1.2 million relocation bonus, which was not considered performance-based. This payment was a one-time award negotiated in connection with our acquisition of Xtend. The cash compensation to be paid to our executive officers in the 2006 fiscal year is not expected to reach the $1 million level. Accordingly, the Compensation Committee has decided not to take any action at this time to limit or restructure the elements of cash compensation payable to our executive officers. The Compensation Committee will reconsider this decision should the individual compensation of any executive officer approach the $1 million limitation.

Report of the Audit Committee

        The following report of the Audit Committee is not "soliciting material," is not deemed filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not to be incorporated by reference in any of our filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, whether made before or after the date of this Proxy Statement and irrespective of any general incorporation language in any of our filings.

        The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is governed by a written charter that was adopted by the Audit Committee and approved by the full Board of Directors in January 2004. A copy of the charter was included in the proxy statement for the 2004 annual meeting of stockholders. The charter is also available on our website at www.vyyo.com/Investors/Corporate Governance.

        The Audit Committee oversees our financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Directors. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process including the systems of internal controls. In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee reviewed the audited financial statements in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 with management, including a discussion on the quality, not just the acceptability, of the accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments and the clarity of disclosures in the financial statements.

        The Audit Committee also reviewed with our independent registered public accounting firm, who is responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of those audited financial statements with generally accepted accounting principles, its judgments as to the quality, not just the acceptability, of our accounting principles and such other matters as are required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61. In addition, the Audit Committee has discussed with our independent registered public accounting firm the auditors' independence from us and our management, including the matters in the written disclosures required by the Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, and considered the compatibility of non-audit services with the auditors' independence.

        The Audit Committee discussed with our independent registered public accounting firm the overall scope and plans for the audit. The Audit Committee meets with our independent registered public accounting firm, with and without management present, to discuss the results of its examination, its evaluation of our internal controls and the overall quality of our financial reporting.

        In reliance on the reviews and discussion referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors, and the Board of Directors approved, that the audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Audit Committee and the Board of Directors also have recommended, subject to stockholder approval, the selection of our independent registered public accounting firm.

Respectfully submitted,

Neill H. Brownstein, Chairman
Lewis S. Broad, Member
Samuel L. Kaplan, Member

Stock Performance Graph

        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in our previous or future filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that might incorporate this Proxy Statement or future filings made by us under those statutes, the Stock Performance Graph and reference to the Audit Committee charter and independence of the Audit Committee members are not deemed filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any of those prior filings or into any future filings made by us under those statutes.

        The graph below compares the cumulative total stockholder return on our common stock with that of the Nasdaq Stock Market Index and the Nasdaq Telecommunications Index. The comparison for each of the periods assumes that $100 was invested on December 31, 2000 in our common stock, the stocks included in the Nasdaq Stock Market Index and the stocks included in the Nasdaq Telecommunications Index. These indices, which reflect formulas for dividend reinvestment and weighting of individual stocks, do not necessarily reflect returns that could be achieved by an individual investor.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

        Any related party transactions, excluding compensation (whether cash, equity or otherwise) which is delegated to our Compensation Committee, involving one of our directors or executive officers, must be reviewed and approved by our Audit Committee.

        Other than the compensation arrangements set forth under the "Executive Compensation and Other Information" above and the transactions described below, since January 1, 2005, there has not been, nor is there currently proposed, any transaction or series of similar transactions to which we were or will be a party in which the amount involved exceeds or will exceed $60,000 and in which any director, executive officer or holder of more than 5% of our common stock, or an immediate family member of any of the foregoing, had or will have a direct or indirect interest.

    Harmony Management

        Aircraft.    We were billed $742,266 by an unaffiliated third party management company in connection with several charters of aircraft for business travel purposes in 2005. While we chartered the aircraft directly from the management company, the chartered aircraft is leased by Harmony Management, Inc. ("Harmony"), of which Davidi Gilo and a trust for his benefit are the sole shareholders. Payments made by us to the management company for the aircraft charters were ultimately paid to Harmony, after deductions for certain operating costs and charter management fees. At the instruction of Harmony, the hourly rate charged by the management company for these charters was substantially less than the standard rate charged by the management company for similar charters to other unaffiliated parties. In January 2005, the management company was changed and we entered into a short-term time sharing agreement with Harmony pursuant to which we are entitled to use the aircraft subject to certain conditions, including reimbursing Harmony for various costs related to aircraft operation.

        Strategic Investment and Miscellaneous Office Services.    In 2005, we reimbursed Harmony $72,853 for strategic investment, consulting and miscellaneous office services.

        Gilo Family Partnership.    In 2005, we paid $48,000 of rent to the Gilo Family Partnership, LP for use of an administrative office in Woodside, California. Harmony is the general partner of GFP and Mr. Gilo, Shamaya Gilo and three trusts for the benefit of Mr. Gilo's children are the limited partners of the family partnership.

    Silicon Design Systems

        MIS Services.    In 2005, we reimbursed Silicon Design Systems, Inc. ("SDS") $107,198 and recognized stock compensation expense of approximately $20,000 for management information services provided by an SDS employee in connection with operation and maintenance of our computer systems. Mr. Gilo is a controlling shareholder and chairman of the board of directors of SDS' parent corporation.

        Maintenance Fees.    In 2005, SDS reimbursed us $30,059 for janitorial and other maintenance fees for services performed by our contractors in office space leased by SDS in Israel.

        Fischer Behar Chen Well Orion & Co.    Avraham Fischer, a member of our Board of Directors, is a co-managing partner of the law firm of Fischer Behar Chen Well Orion & Co., which represents us on matters related to Israeli law. We paid approximately $72,000 in legal fees to this firm in 2005.

        Syntek Capital AG.    On December 16, 2005, we amended key provisions of our outstanding $6.5 million promissory note payable to Syntek. We delivered the original $6.5 million promissory note

24



to Syntek on June 30, 2004 in connection with our acquisition of Xtend. The amended note amends certain key provisions of the original note as follows:

    The maturity date was extended by one year from March 31, 2007 to March 31, 2008;

    The provision that would have allowed Syntek to accelerate the original note if the sum of our cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and accounts receivables, net of short- and long-term debt, was less than $20 million on December 31, 2005 or June 30, 2006, was waived;

    The original note provided for cancellation in the event that, during the year ending December 31, 2006, our (a) revenue (including that of all subsidiaries) derived from products sold, currently under development or to be developed by us equals or exceeds $60 million, and (b) gross margin equals or exceeds 35%. The amended note provides for an additional year (year ending December 31, 2007) during which achievement of these targets will result in cancellation; and

    An additional cancellation event was added that provides for immediate cancellation upon the occurrence of certain specified events related to appreciation in the price of our common stock and the sale of shares of our common stock held by Syntek.

        As security for the amended note we delivered an irrevocable letter of credit in favor of Syntek in the amount of $5 million.

        Mr. Benatoff, a member of our Board of Directors, owns an immaterial proportion of Syntek and sits on a management committee of Syntek that does not make investment decisions with respect to the shares of our common stock owned by Syntek.

        Arcadian Networks, Inc.    On March 31, 2006, we entered into an equipment purchase agreement with Arcadian Networks, Inc. ("ANI"). Pursuant to this agreement, we will sell certain products and services to ANI over a 10-year term. We are required to distribute the products covered by the agreement to ANI on an exclusive basis in a specified territory to identified markets if: (a) ANI makes two payments of $4 million during the first two years of the agreement; (b) ANI meets specified annual minimum product purchase amounts; and (c) ANI's outstanding balances are below specified amounts. Exclusivity after the second year will depend on ANI's meeting the minimum purchase amounts. The agreement does not prohibit us from selling any of our products or services to areas outside of the specified territory. In addition, we may sell our products within the specified territory to end users or resellers other than those engaged in the identified markets. Mr. Gilo, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors, is also the Chairman of the Board of Directors of ANI and the sole member of the limited liability company that is the general partner of a major stockholder of ANI.

        We have entered into indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers containing provisions that may require us, among other things, to indemnify our directors and executive officers against various liabilities that may arise by virtue of their status or service as directors and executive officers, and to advance their expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified.


DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION OF STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS
FOR 2007 ANNUAL MEETING

        You are entitled to present proposals for consideration at forthcoming stockholder meetings if you comply with the proxy rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission and our Bylaws. If you wish to present a proposal at our 2007 annual meeting of stockholders, you must submit such proposal to our Corporate Secretary by December 15, 2006 if you want it to be eligible for inclusion in our proxy statement and form of proxy relating to that meeting.

25



        In addition, under our Bylaws, if you would like to present a proposal at our 2007 annual meeting of stockholders (but do not wish to include the proposal in the proxy statement), you must deliver such proposal to our Corporate Secretary, no earlier than February 7, 2007 and no later than March 9, 2007, unless the date of our 2007 annual meeting of stockholders is more than 30 calendar days before or after May 8, 2007, in which case your notice of a proposal will be timely if we receive it by the close of business on the 10th day following the day we publicly announce the date of the 2007 annual meeting of stockholders or mail notice of the meeting, whichever occurs first.


COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(a) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934

        Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our directors and officers, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities, to file initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Securities and Exchange Commission regulations also require these persons to furnish us with a copy of all Section 16(a) reports that they file. Based solely on our review of the copies of the forms furnished to us and written representations from our executive officers and directors, we believe that all Section 16(a) filing requirements were met during the year ended December 31, 2005.


"HOUSEHOLDING" OF PROXY MATERIALS

        The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries such as brokers to satisfy delivery requirements for proxy statements with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single proxy statement addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as "householding," potentially provides convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies. Some brokers household proxy materials, delivering a single proxy statement to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be householding materials to your address, householding will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in householding and would prefer to receive a separate proxy statement, or if you are receiving multiple copies of the proxy statement and wish to receive only one, please notify your broker.


OTHER MATTERS

        The Board of Directors knows of no other business that will be presented at the Annual Meeting. If any other business is properly brought before the Annual Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying proxy to vote the shares they represent as the Board of Directors may recommend.

        Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting in person, please complete, date, sign and promptly return the enclosed proxy card in the enclosed postage-paid envelope before the Annual Meeting so that your shares will be represented at the Annual Meeting.
