HFT Cassie Repeater Fully Launched!

Building Cassie

We of course started building Cassie and completed a month ago.  However, unlike most small WISP’s and rural providers, Hyper Fusion takes a while to test and properly tune and configure our repeater sites to ensure the kind speeds we’re getting as posted below.  Hyper Fusion take a lot of pride and being the best, fastest, most reliable, service with the best customer care out there.  This is why we take more time then most to start allowing subscriber connections to our repeater sites, as we like to ensure that they will never have any issues and EVERY one of our circuits runs at 100 Mbps download and upload all the time with less than 20ms of ping time out to the internet.

Speeds at Cassie

What kind of speeds can one expect out on the east side of the lake in the Cassie sub-division?

This is a genuine speed test off our internet as you can see, taken at 6:19pm right in the middle of peak usage hours, and crazy 23ms ping time.  As you can see, by Speedtest.NET’s own measurement, compared with all fiber, cable modem, all kinds of speed test all over the US, Hyper Fusion is faster than 92% of the US.  There is no other rural provider in Burnet, Lampasas, Llano, Williamson, or Bell counties that can compare to these sorta speeds during peak times.  Our Mega 75 plan is awfully popular with those gamers, and now Cassie, you can enjoy incredible speeds as well!

Social Networking Scam, Twice In The Past Week

Scammers Hard At Work

So, over the last week, I have received several scam reports regarding the networking site Meet Me. I do want to note that these scams are all over social networking sites and the internet. This is why Hyper Fusion recommends that if you want to share your life over the internet, do it privately, and not on any website you have to “upload things” to, such as Facebook, Twitter, or Meet Me. We offer a safe place to store your pictures and things and still be able to share them with family through our Plex server.

How do I protect me and my family from this?

Consumers fall victim to these scams because they are not informed of basic safety measures when it comes to your personal information and the online world. Hyper Fusion doesn’t want to only provide internet and streaming services, but we also look out for subscribers. Hyper Fusion STRONGLY recommends that EVERYWHERE you go online, DO NOT use your real name, post photos of you and/or your children, your home, or anything else that includes identifying information. Even setting your profile to “friends only” offers zero protection. All your data is still on the social media site and online and is constantly being sold, photos included to a plethora of companies, which is where these scam artists hunt for victims. We do offer a safe way to store your information and be able to share important memories and pictures with family through our Plex server. You can ticket in to inquire about this service.

This particular scam

In the Meet Me scam that was reported to me by 2 different people, the scammer talked to the people into texting. Then after 20 minutes, a 2nd number appeared, claiming to be the first ones parent. At this point, they would call the ‘feds” and “have you taken down”.  Within minutes a 3rd number appears, claiming to “be a fed”, yet reveals no agency they work for or badge number, and demanded a $4,000 wire to “clear their name”.  When the almost victim replied that they do not have a bank account, they pushed them to send $2,000 through a cash app.  That is a major red flag. Law enforcement officials in the US will NEVER ask anyone for money over the phone.
The fact of the matter is, government officials whether with the police, FBI, IRS…etc DO NOT call, text, or email you. So if you get some random person you’ve never met, telling you to give out your personal information or to send them money DO NOT GIVE SEND THEM ANYTHING and please report this to our Hyper Fusion staff via email so that we can investigate.
The three phone numbers associated with this scam are: ( 863-354-4190 ), ( 712-525-8205) and (469-359-1603).

We all know this.

A SIMPLE SOLID FACT OF THE INTERNET…..  IF IT CAN BE DONE, IT CAN BE UN-DONE, AND VICE VERSA.

As an ISP Hyper Fusion can find these scammers IPs and report them to the right agencies to get them taken down. Chris and Will have been working in the internet field and finding information like this for more than thirty years. By keeping your personal information off the internet and reporting scams to Hyper Fusion we can all protect each other.
As you can see from the article posted below, these scams are rampant.

Stay safe out there on the net folks,

Fall Update

Kempner Fusion Fiber

ENJOY OUR SCARY FAST SPEEDS TODAY!

As we gear up for fall, we have been working hard on the Kempner Fiber project. The sign up for fiber to the home service is now open! Just visit https://www.hyperfusiontech.com/signup  to get started.
We also have our Briggs repeater, Equirina Big Tower, and 7 Creeks projects that we will be completing soon, along with completing the deployment of the HyperNet. Hyper Fusion is tying all the towers together with multiple fiber backbones so that our downtime decreases and customers “up time” increases exponentially.

Radio Buy Back Special

There are a couple WISP providers in the area that sell you your radio.  If you have one that is compatible with our system we will buy your radio from you and it will come off of the setup fee. Please email or call our sales engineer to see if your pre existing connection qualifies for the rebate.

While we love healthy competition here at Hyper Fusion, we do encourage all of our customers past, present, and future to please read the fine print and the terms of service of ANY provider that they are considering.

New Cassie Repeater Site Activated!

We have now activated our Cassie repeater site folks!  We have super strong service to the site and all of our plans on our internet page are available.  We know the wait has been along time, but we aim to be the strongest rural provider in the Highland Lakes area.  We are forging a new path of solid service!  We have several live subscribers already in the area and everyone capable of 100 Mbps plus download and upload speeds.  We are the FASTEST internet now in Cassie!

What is the Hyper Fusion difference?

Hyper Fusion’s mission has always been to provide affordable, broadband speeds without the hidden fees. 1 bill, 1 rate, no extra fees.  Don’t be fooled, in the summer of 2017, it was HYPER  FUSION who brought actual broadband speed internet to Lampasas and Burnet counties FIRST. Before Hyper Fusion, our rural communities were ignored. Four years in now, our mission is well under way, and we will continue to shake things up. Hyper Fusion is here for the community.  We boast the ONLY multi-honed multiple upstream peer network in the greater Highland Lakes area, the only provider who owns their own IP’s, and as of just last week, the ONLY one to truly have an FCC registered frequency licensee and owned spectrum.  We know this because in order to get one, the coordinator notifys all other registrants in the area, and there are none.  Notta one.

Hyper Vision Cloud TV Update

Nearly 50 alpha testers now are happily streaming TV and movies!! THE FULL BETA RELEASE IS COMING SOON!!!! STAY TUNED!!!!  The Android app is complete, tested, and solid. The Playstation and Xbox apps still have some bugs, but the Nintendo Switch app is the most stable of all our players. We are going to be picking up the pace here over to get all the final pieces coded for the channel selection interface and the iOS app.

The video logo rider that precedes our live TV service content is ready and our public beta release of our streaming service is coming out for Christmas time this year folks!
