Hyper Fusion Officially Gets More Traffic Than Rise Broadband

I know alot of folks seemed to be perplexed by new installs taking almost 3 weeks to do and don’t really understand why.  We thought we’d make this post today which should help shed some light as to the reason why.  Well, as of August 14th, 2019, according to Amazon, a world leader in measuring traffic and cloud internet services, reported that we out-traffic and are more popular than Rise Broadband.  Don’t believe us, check it out for yourself.

Site: hyperfusiontech.com Rank: 183,127

As you can see from the screenshot to the left ( clicking on it will take you to Amazon’s profile page on Hyper Fusion, bear in mind, this is something we have zero access to and have zero Amazon trackers or cookies buried within any of our sites, (check our source code if you don’t believe us).  There are roughly 8 billion active websites on the web these days, by a rough estimate, and Amazon ranks them, as you can see, we are ranked 183,127, that means, there are only 183,126 websites that get more traffic then us.  If you check out Rise Broadband, who is in multiple states and multiple countries, we out rank them by a good 5,000 spots worldwide, and by a good 60,000 in the USA exclusively.  So as you can see folks, we get an FANTASTIC amount of traffic, phone calls, sales requests for service, and everything else that goes along with it.

By comparison, we’ve also displayed some other local providers Alexa rankings as well, and as you can see, we VASTLY out-traffic and out perform every one of them.  There’s several reasons we started after almost every single one of them and have grown so much faster.   Some of the other providers have some of these features, some none at all, but NONE of them have them all together.  All you have to do is research for yourself.

  1. We do not resell other networks circuits.  Meaning, we don’t call up AT & T, have them install fiber, and slap our sticker on it and call it ours.  We install, dig, trench, string on utility poles, and this is OUR network and Fiber, not owned or installed by anyone else.
  2. We operate ALL our wireless, tower, and network gear in house with qualified engineers that have been doing this for years and are technology based, and not “business based”.  Clearly, service plan prices reflect the goals of these type of providers as they often charge over $100 a month for service and rarely delivery anything more than 10 Mbps circuits.
  3. We operate all our servers and do all our own programming.  All our server work, website work, Fusion Portal, and everything is all operated in house.  Our people not only physically build the servers and put them into server racks, but we also take identical copies of those servers we built ourselves and go plant them in data centers where we rent space to house them to ensure high connectivity, security, and so we don’t lose our data.
  4. In just a week or 2, we will have a full multi-honed ARIN recognized autonomous system network.  Meaning we will have multiple 1 Gbps or faster direct fiber connections out to the internet.  NO other provider has this capability, and once the upgrade is complete, and everyone run’s their speed tests, the provider will come back as Hyper Fusion, and that’s how you can easily tell the difference.
  5. Hyper Fusion deploys proprietary ( meaning we built it ourselves and didn’t buy it off a shelf somewhere ) hardware devices and software throughout our network.  These devices and software are what keep our network so much faster than every other provider and the key to our disruptive technology.  Just like the Colonel has his magical 11 herbs and spices recipe, Hyper Fusion’s recipe for our explosion of growth is tightly guarded.

The fact that when Hyper Fusion started 2 years ago, there was little to no options for Broadband internet in the Highland Lakes area, Lampasas County, and

1 Year Traffic Graph for Hyper Fusion

Burnet County, and now, over the last 2 years, several new providers have popped up, AT & T and T-Mobile have installed several new towers, and redundant lines, it’s made the City of Lampasas start to scramble to figure out what to do, and its allowed us to surround Lampasas with 4 repeaters, and another one of which is about to get direct fiber connected with one of our live fibers to really super charge the network in preparation for our gigabit wireless to the home service, and its really given this entire area, choices, options, and spurred the competition.

Back in the Spring of 2017, it was Hyper Fusion’s goal to bring true broadband internet to Lampasas and Burnet counties.  Our goal has succeeded.  We were the first to publicly announce it, and we continue to be the first to bring innovation and modest pricing to the internet game in this area, and although we are not subject to the guidelines the FCC is proposing, we completely agree with them and that’s why are prices are more in line with internet you might find in the city’s, like in town Burnet with Spectrum, or in town San Marcos with Grande Communications.  As you can easily tell by all the other “WISP’s” as they call them, they do not price anywhere near that low.  Additionally, NONE of them offer fiber to the home or business that is truly their own.  We ARE the ONLY provider offering fiber to the home or business, built, ran, and installed by us, regardless of what they may tell you.

Hyper Fusion Customer Only Message Boards

Hey folks, so we’ve realized, in just about every neighborhood, we have 1 person who is a bit more aware of what’s going on with Hyper Fusion and how to operate their Hyper Fusion circuit.  We’ve made contact with these folks and we are going to be making them moderators of their specific neighborhood.  These same folks will also be included in a special board with Hyper Fusion staff so that they can stay in the day to day know, and pass on information that effects each small neighborhood in an effort to increase our customer support and getting information where its’ needed as fast as possible.  Again, as we grow, and in an effort to better serve our customers we will be moving all communication with our customer to our private message boards and our Fusion Portal system and in-house Customer Support.  We think that working more closely with each community in our service area we will be able to better serve our customers.  Signing up for a forums account is free, just remember when you do and your looking for the activation email, check your SPAM box and for the activation email and please be sure to register with the same email address as your login for your Fusion Portal account so we can get you set up in the forums as we have to manually add each request to the private and hidden customer only message boards.  We’re asking that everyone please sign up, and once your in, there is a Welcome thread, go ahead and make a starter post if you like.

Again, once you register, please email support@hyperfusiontech.com  and let us know you registered for the message board site so we can get your account added to the customer only private boards.

Services Update

Hey everyone, just a periodic update to let everyone know what’s been going on with our network.  As promised, and its been a long time coming, we’ve finally started the upgrade process from the horrible Co-Ax to the “big boy” fiber.  This is work OUR people are doing, digging, sweating over.  Yes, even our female owner and Will were both out there diggin’ in the trenches, literally.   We don’t cheat like the other local provider and call up AT & T and have them install it and then slap our sticker on it and call it ours, oh no you bet your bottom dollar we don’t do that.  This is our own, genuine Fusion Fiber ladies and gentleman, just like our North fiber gateway.

We have also completed 2 of the 4 linkage climbs required to link the North and South networks into one seamless network.  This will not only allow each repeater to choose its fastest path out to the internet using either one of the two fiber up-links that we have but it will also allow us to deploy a pure IPv6 network giving millions of public static IP address to all our customers 100% free and thus completing our truly pure digital multi-honed delivery network.  This will MASSIVELY cut down on downtime due to repeater issues.

Climb 1 ( Naruna to Lampasas South ) – Completed
Climb 2 ( Lampasas South to Naruna and Lampasas North ) – Completed
Climb 3 ( Lampasas East to Naruna and Kempner North ) – Scheduled for 8/5
Climb 4 ( Kempner North to Lampasas East ) – Scheduled for 8/6

Burnet Fiber Gateway & DMARC is scheduled to go live 8/16 pending our up-link providers splicer availability.  This date may get pushed back or forward depending.  If you are still experiencing the issue where speed test sites report slow and all streaming sites work except for Hulu, this should correct your issue completely.  Also, anyone on the north side of Burnet, can become eligible for our Fusion Fiber to the home service.

Thanks For Everyone’s Patience!

We’ve also updated our real time status page, so please be sure to read that over carefully as well.

Slow Speed Help

Help, I have slow speed, what do I do?

If your having slow speeds, that means you have a tiny bit of internet, pages sort of load, streaming applications may load but the videos won’t play, that sort of thing.  We handle this issues much different than NO SERVICE.  With that in mind, please hardline in a laptop to your circuit as pictured at the right and then follow the following steps:

  1. The ethernet cable that goes from your receiver to your POE ( typically a patch cable will be plugged into the black wall plate we installed with the red ethernet port in it.) unplug that from the port labeled POE on your POE adapter that powers your receiver AND passes your internet from us to you.
  2. Make sure your router and all 4G Mobile hotspots are turned off, including your laptop and wait 5 minutes.
  3. Plug the ethernet cable from your receiver ( the patch cable coming out of your wall plate ) back into the port labeled POE on your POE adapter and wait 2 minutes.
  4. Power up your laptop and wait for it to fully boot then open Chrome or Firefox.
  5. Visit https://www.fast.com  and test your speed.
  6. After you have tested your speed at Fast ( powered by Netflix ) then visit https://www.speedtest.net  Still not getting the speed your expecting, continue on thru the help steps.
  7. Then try testing your speed at http://www.openspeedtest.com If your speed test still isn’t working, time to contact Hyper Fusion Customer Support.  If you are getting 5 Mbps or higher, please continue thru the steps below.
  8. Visit https://www.youtube.com  , if all the video thumbnails load in less than 5 seconds, changes are your circuit is fine and the issue your experiencing is related to our upstream provider having routing issues.  This we are aware of and in the process of changing one of our upstream providers and will post again once the upgrade is complete.  However, most of your streaming sites should still work.

We do apologize about your slow speed issue.  But if your YouTube is working, your Hyper fusion circuit is fine.  The issue your experiencing is related to the fact that most speed test website “live” inside a data company called Cloud Flare, which was recently hit with a massive outage due to their networking issues.  You can easily google “Cloud Flare Outage” and there are hundreds of stories out there how this broke 1/2 the internet for 75% of the United States.  In the hopes of your routing updating and this issue working itself out, we ask that every night before you go to bed, and when you wake up, to reboot your router ONLY and the device your using to surf the internet with.  About 1/2 customers report that after 2 or 3 days of doing this process, the issue works itself out.

Summer Update Post and Policy Changes

Hey everyone, once per season we’re gonna try and get in a habbit of making our policy changes and major updates  at those 4 times thru out the year.  So, this is our Summer 2019 announcement.  I had expected this to go out on June 21st, the first day of summer, but, well, obviously with everything going on from the June 9th tornado and the other events that took place has made it difficult for us to get some of these smaller things like announcements out on time as all our staff has been out in the field making repairs from the storm.  With that in mind, moving forward, it will only be on these special 4 times per year update announcements where we will make policy and procedure changes effective.  So, this is our summer update.  Our next one will be what we’re calling our Holiday Winter Update, which we will post with in the week before Thanksgiving each year.  This update will have our holiday hours in it as well as any special promotions we may be running.  We will also announce any official policy changes due to laws changing that will occur on the 1st of the new year so everyone is well aware ahead of time. Then after the year is over, the 1st week of January, we will make our New Years Update about all the exciting things coming in the Spring.  Finally our Spring update we will always release on the spring equinox and the summer update on summer solstice.

What is service to the plate?

As with traditional cable modem or DSL service when you have it installed, the provider will ask you to unplug all of your home devices including router and plug a laptop directly into your modem to get a speed test and determine any issues.  However, with Hyper Fusion’s network, being 100% all digital and providing IP service to the plate we install in your home directly, we have no modem in our system.  This is why we have coined the term, “Service to the Plate”.  What this means, is if you plug a hard-line from a laptop or desktop computer directly into the LAN port of your POE, that’s the only place we guarantee speed at.

What am I actually paying for with Hyper Fusion?

Our standard $250 activation fee covers the SETUP only ( we maintain ownership of the entire circuit ) of the circuit.  A basic circuit includes the receiver ( or wireless radio ) a satellite arm mounted on a chimney or on the eve of a structure, sometimes on a utility pole in some cases. ( The power companies all have different rules about how we can attach our satellite arms to their poles and it varies by company and county. ) With the cable run on the OUTSIDE of the home, tucked down under the over hang where its ran over to the outside facing room the subscriber wants the plate installed with a hole drilled from the outside in, and a plate placed right on the inside of the structure.   This basic circuit is 100% owned by Hyper Fusion.  It DOES NOT belong to any subscriber.  As such, we guarantee the circuit.  If any part of this basic circuit fails due to improper installation, weather or weather damage, or due to failed software updates, Hyper Fusion will replace any or all parts of the circuit required to restore normal stable service and then we allow you to plug ONE single device into that wall plate, your POE, with en empty LAN port, which you are allowed to plug any ONE device of your choosing with a hard-line.  Our portion and scope of support ends right at the POE.  NO part of the circuit is charged to you monthly what so ever to rent any gear, although we do maintain ownership at all times throughout the length of time you maintain service with Hyper Fusion.  The ONLY other fee you pay is your monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, or yearly subscription fee.  However, if you have large tree’s on the property, or sit lower than our repeater, a telescoping radio mast maybe required to get your receiver higher in order to catch the signal and does carry setup fee’s for these masts.  Again, we maintain ownership of these masts and if they do topple for what ever reason due to improper installation or a storm knocking it over, we come back and setup back up at no cost to the customer.  No other provider that we’ve found does this, they always charge you every time for setting it back up again.

How do Hyper Fusion Subscription Fee’s work?

Our services bill and work exactly identical to Boost Mobile or Cricket Wireless.  Our 25 Mbps plan costs $65 per month.  So the day we turn you live, you pay $65 and you get 30 days of service.  The following day, your NEXT months invoice is generated and you have 30 days to pay it.  If you do NOT pay it it by the end of the 30 day period on your due date, 24 hours later your service is suspended.  You should be able to access the Fusion Portal on your home internet to pay your bill if your account is suspended regardless of circuit status. ( unless your receiver is not linked to the tower ).  With this in mind, and our company believes late fees and re-connection fees are bull crap made up fee’s by cable companies, we DO NOT charge late fee’s or re-connection fee’s of any kind.  We also include ALL fee’s in our final prices.  These fee’s include, state sales tax, FCC regulatory fee’s, county by county franchise fees, rental fees, late fees, all kinds of fees from big cable and big wireless.  Just review your Hyper Fusion bill to all their bills.  We have a single page.  Almost EVERY other provider has multi page bills full of fees.  We operate on the prepaid bill model because it allows us to remove a lot of these baloney fee’s making our subscription fee’s much more modest and bringing our customers better rates.  Furthermore, unless you change plans or billing period lengths, the price you pay will remain that way FOR LIFE.  Hyper Fusion is committed to NEVER raising rates.

What method of payments do you accept?

We are also committed to being as much of a nature friendly and green company as possible right off the bat.  With that in mind, Hyper Fusion is making a MAJOR payment policy change effective July 1st, 2019.  Moving forward, when signing up for a new circuit ( whether existing customer or new customer ) your activation charge and ALL setup charges as determined by your on-site survey conducted by one of our CPE Supervisors must be paid by check or money order only.  Once the circuit is installed and live, the subscription fee’s MUST be paid by credit or debit card ONLY.  We will no longer be accepting checks, money orders, or your banks online bill pay feature as a valid method of paying subscription fee’s.   We will be moving forward ONLY accepting subscription fee’s with a debit or credit card.  If you do not have one, you can take cash down to Walgreen’s or HEB to purchase a Visa Debit gift card for paying your bill.  This allows us to save A LOT of money on our labor expenses and keep our rates where they are.  As all the other service providers are currently raising their rates, we don’t want to, so this is the creative way we figured out to cut our overhead enough to capture that extra income we need instead of raising customer subscription rates.  We do understand that some of you where told you “prepaid for service” by some of the staff that where recently terminated.  That is simply not the case, as we do not allow customers to prepay for anything.  Our services are work like Cricket Wireless and like car insurance, in that, you pay $325 for a 25 Mbps plan and your circuit stays live for a 6 month period. ( A savings of an entire month of free service, so pay 6 months for the price of 5).  So, moving to quarterly, semi-annual, or annual billing plans saves you money.  But you don’t “prepay” for it.  Once its paid, it’s paid, the service is on and away you go.  With that in mind, and the service at speed and live, there will be no refunds issued after that point, as just like Cricket Wireless, there are no refunds.  If there is an outage, a credit is applied to your account for the days you where out at a pro-rated daily rate.  If your out of service for more than 1 hour in a calendar day, you can request a credit to have that credited back to your account.

My WiFi is slow, what do I do about it?

80% of consumer wireless devices ONLY have a 2.4GHz wireless card in them.  Why does this matter?  Well, the 2.4GHz spectrum only has 3 non-overlapping channels. In addition, it can travel thru most modern home walls up to a range of 1,000 feet.  Well, the problem with that is, if there are more than 3 people living with in a 1,000 feet of each other, someone is gonna get screwed out of Wi-Fi every time.  Hyper Fusion CAN NOT and will NEVER guarantee wireless signal quality.  No provider can.  If they do tell you that, they are full of it.  The primary suggested resolution for low wireless quality, is to purchase an AmpliFi brand Mesh system.  Either the cheaper Instant model that comes with 1 mesh point to point on the other side of your house ( For $200 installed by Hyper Fusion, 100% yours to keep and owned by you. ), or the HD model that comes with 2 to 5 mesh units for large homes ( For $450 installed by Hyper Fusion, 100% yours to keep and owned by you. ).  The reason we highly recommend this mesh line is because it communicates with the receiver on your roof to avoid the problem interference and their wireless chips and software are FAR superior to any other companionable mesh system.

We NEVER recommend extenders of any kind, make or model.  In point of fact, since they are easily scanned for, if any circuit is found to have an operating extender NO service credits for slow speed will be issued, nor will we provide any support for your circuit until it is removed from service entirely.  If you have low wifi signal somewhere with in your home, you go with a mesh system.  Extenders, simply because of the way they work are garbage.

I need help, what’s the best way to get a hold of Hyper Fusion?

We know there has been a lot of frustration and confusion, so to eliminate that, we’re making another post here to clearly explain it and post it so everyone knows and can get the help they need in as fast and a professional way as possible.  When the founders started Hyper Fusion and up until last year early spring only had 100 customers and 4 repeater sites.  When it was little and just starting, they had no problems speaking with everyone and maintaining that pass.  Since then however, Hyper Fusion has grown and has MUCH larger amount of customers now, as well as a total of 18 repeater sites to maintain which means they are out in the field ALOT more than they where before.  With that in mind, that’s why we’ve hired a dedicated Office Manager, her name is Michelle.  I’m sure many of you have spoken with her already.  Moving forward our Office Manager will be the end all be all for our customers.  We have authorized Michelle to make all final calls on all customer issues moving forward.  If you have a concern or issue directly for another staff, we kindly ask that you either reply to your open support ticket or login to your Fusion Portal to create a new one.  If you have been texting Chris or any other staff of Hyper Fusion, we kindly ask that you direct all your support concerns either by support ticket or by calling during call center normal open hours as they are super busy and hence forth will both be out working heavily in the field.   You can make replys or open new support tickets provided you do so from the email account attached to your account.  All of our other staff are far to busy out in the field to be working in the office anymore.   As our new Office Manager grows busier she will be bringing on several more call center folks over the summer to help and specialize, one person for billing issues, 1 person for in install appointment help, and 1 person for technical support issues.  With the above in mind….

If you prefer talking on the phone Call Center Phone Support Hours are:

Monday: 12:00 Noon to 4PM
Tue – Thur:  10am to 4PM
Friday: 10am to 3PM

If you prefer realtime messing, simply visit our website, and look for the Chat Support tab in the bottom of our website.  Our Webchat support is also done by our Office Manager right now, under the same Call Center hours above, and is also part of the Call Center department.

Please be aware, that weather you call in or web support chat with our call center EVERY issue you have will still have a support ticket created for it and is our ONLY official form of documentation and communication for your account.  To obtain the fastest service, we ask that you login to your Fusion Portal and make a reply on your support ticket.  As this way, ALL our staff see the ticket and are able to help resolve your issue faster.  Generally speaking most of our staff are constantly logged in working support tickets Monday thru Friday and you will reply back to you as fast as possible.   Our field staff generally work from 9am until 6PM but will usually take a bit longer to finish up their last job of the day and sometimes stay out until just after dark.

Finally, our newest apprentice is officially setting out on his own with his own Junior Customer Premise Engineer.  With that in mind we are searching for a new apprentice for our dedicated founder and owner to personally train.  This will be his last staff that he trains as over the summer he’s going to be teaching and guiding one of our Senior Customer Premise Engineers to be our first Master CPE and start taking on apprentices of their own and getting them fully trained up.

I heard Hyper Fusion is getting rid of Facebook & Twitter, is this true?

Fortunately, yes, this is true.  Hyper Fusion has done a heavy amount of investigation into the privacy, security, and business practices of these 2 companies and we can no longer support them with the large amounts of traffic that we tend to generate.  They both engage in system practices that we believe are adversely affecting how humans interact and engage with one another and can no longer support such destructive practices. We have created an place however, for our customers and even non-customer community members to get help and post questions and things like that.  Our message board forums will be the ONLY place we post daily updates from now on.  Our real time network status page will remain located at https://www.hyperfusiontech.com/status    You can access our message board site at https://forums.hyperfusiontech.com   signing up for an account is 100% free and used only for getting access to the message board site.  On Friday, July 12th, 2019 at 11:59PM, we will be deleting our twitter account, facebook, and YouTube account.  Additionally, ANY posts or information you may come across are NOT official Hyper Fusion information and are not to be considered as such and we ask that our customers or other interested parties visit our company news feed or message board site for authentic Hyper Fusion information.  Moving forward we will no longer be accepting, checking, or reviewing ANY social media networking sites.  So, if your having issues, please submit a new support ticket response.

We appreciate everyone’s support!

Major Internet Outage Affects Discord, Verizon, And Even Down Detector

Hey folks, just a new update.  So, here at Hyper Fusion, not only do we provide you with the best internet you can get in the greater Highland Lakes area, but we also keep an eye out on the internet for problems and other nefarious things going on.  As I’m sure alot of the folks on the south network can tell you, there have been some aggravating issues since the storm regarding slow speeds.  These major issues we can assure you are NOT within our wireless or fiber distribution networks.  The issue was caused by Cloud Flares global outage that dang near broke the internet.   Important lesson for all ISP’s there.  You DON’T put your entire control infrastructure in one place or with a 3rd party company, because when they tank so do you.  That’s why our north network didn’t go down because our north upstream provider runs their own network, just like Hyper Fusion.  Also why “the other guys” are still down and having heavy problems in Lampasas and we are not having ANY of those issues on the north network.

We have found an article from Forbes.com  that pretty much wraps it up.

Slow Speed Issue Reaching Resolution!!

So, after spending MANY, MANY hours with our upstream providers, we’ve finally figured out the cause of our internet slowness since the storms. Our upstream providers had sustained damage that affected our ability to achieve expected speeds.  Thankfully, our north network upstream provider came out very quickly and installed new hardware that resolved the issue in the north network  The upstream provider for our south network is working to resolve the issue and has assured us that the problem will be resolved quickly.

We apologize for any inconvenience this situation has caused and will continue to work diligently to bring the best internet we can to our customers.

Thanks so much for everyone’s patience.

Outages and Slow Speed Issues

Hey folks, we’ve been getting a lot of support requests regarding this issue so I thought I would make this post.  A few weeks back during that major storm that took down our Kempner tower, it also took out a major fiber interchange physical building in Dallas / Ft. Worth where many providers bring their fibers together for peering traffic.  As a result, as noted in this news story, HALF the internet is out.  I’m actually rather surprised ours is working as well as it is.   We have been in contact with both of our upstream providers and both say it will be back up before the weekend is out.

Our upstream providers have asked to us to ask our customers to please reboot their routers each morning until the problem corrects as the routers rely off routing tables and our circuits are set up to download those new routes when your router boots up.  We will be rebooting our core gateway routers each night at midnight as well until the issue corrects.

Kempner North Fiber Run COMPLETE!

Exciting news everyone, we have completed another few km of installing our own PRIVATE fiber.  We terminated it, we put it up on the big boy poles with big boy toys all our own.  No sticker slapping for us!  We are the ONLY new provider with privately owned fiber.  We have also completed the full fiber DMARC installation.  We removed the splice point side we had with the shed on it, and got big boy underground fiber containers.  We replaced the wireless link we had going between the Kempner Gateway.  With this change now in place, Kempner North has officially been converted to the Kempner Gateway!  We can pump 3 pairs of 100 Gbps worth of thru put into this tower if we want it folks, so there’s PLENTY to go around.  We have to swap out a switch and add another server to the tower and some battery backups and put the new night vision cameras up, but other than that, the Kempner North site since its directly fiber connected will be running at the full 10 gig link speed which means we can start spinning off gigabit fiber to the home services off this site now!

Chica Ranch, your the next fiber run up or maybe River Place.  Point is folks, you’ve seen our guys running our own fiber.  The timing might have been poor, but we can run about 1km of fiber per day the way we’re running.  With this fiber project now complete we will be coming over and catching up on all our customer repairs, and once that’s caught up Burnet Main will be getting a complete rebuild and recondition.  And we’ve got all 10 Gbps networking gear.  Hands down creaming the competition in the area.  We’ve also got a fiber DMARC tap point located right on the edge of town as pictured. =)
