Hyperoptic offers lighting fast broadband and stable connection at a very low price. However, its full fibre broadband network (fibre to the home) is only available in select UK cities.

- Hyperoptic is one of the full fibre broadband providers that offers symmetrical speeds (same download and upload speeds).
- It offers two options – broadband only and broadband and phone, with flexible contract options and no upfront fee required for select plans.
- Hyperoptic broadband is truly unlimited and comes with Nokia Hyperhub router (dual band, 802.11ac, Mesh WiFi).
- You can choose from 24 / 12 / 1 month contract options.
Hyperoptic Routers
Hyperoptic broadband currently uses two different wireless routers, both come with built-in fibre broadband modems and the latest wireless features such as dual-band and Wi-Fi 5 (802.11 ac).
- The ZTE Hyperhub is the standard router offered with superfast broadband packages (30Mbps – 150Mbps)
- The Nokia Hyperhub is the premium router included with ultrafast broadband packages (500Mbps and 900Mbps)

- The main difference is that the Nokia Hyperhub supports mesh networking and Wi-Fi band steering technology, which the ZTE Hyperhub does not support.
- Both routers can support ultrafast speeds and are dual-band, but the Nokia Hyperhub has extra MIMO on each channel to connect more devices.
- Nokia Hyperhub can handle faster speeds than ZTE Hyperhub (2920Mbps vs 1167Mbps).
- The Nokia Hyperhub has 7 antennas, while the ZTE Hyperhub has only 4 antennas.
