  • After joining @hyperoptic I was offered a FREE router upgrade! That seemed pretty awesome as I'd literally been with them a day... No I wasn't getting special 'influencer' privileges - they send out these Hyperoptic Nokia HA-140W-B Fibre Routers to customers who are on the highest speed packages.... Why? Well they have better WiFi performance than the ZTE one that was installed in the house.
    But is the WiFi much better? We all know that wired connections are pretty much as good as it gets, but can I get 'wired' speeds over a 'wireless' connection? Well watch and find out!
    In this video I unbox, set up and configure this Hyperoptic Nokia HA-140W-B Fibre Router and compare it to what we had before, and.. I think you want to see just how different things are.. (if at all!)

    Thanks for useful vid. Lack of info on this router on the web, but this video convinced me its a worthy upgrade for our business.

    Go back into the wifi settings of the router and change your channel bandwidth settings on 5GHz to 80 or 160 MHz, then watch your speeds go even faster.

    I rang Hyperoptic to upgrade from the ZTE H298A to this Nokia HA140WB due to latency issues.
    Does this support Wi-Fi 6? The customer service rep said it did when I didn’t believe them. I enquired about potentially getting the newer ZTE H3600 but they said they have been advised not to send those to customers anymore due to issues ?

    I just got hyperoptic installed today, they gave this router today after i asked but i see in your other video there was another router they gave you when you asked, i also have the 1gb package
    Is it worth asking again for the other router or is this one good enough?

    • @kiphakes

      @avian93 unfortunately not, I did a speediest just now and got 326 over wifi, with ethernet cable on my pc it is around 800
      I am thinking of getting a good wifi 6e router soon which hopefully should improve things, personally for a 1gb line I would expect them to provide 6e routers which they don't and realistically all routers should be wifi 6 now not just when asked for when getting a high speed line.

For example, I had to reset the DNS settings on my iMac, else I couldn't get on the internet using wi-fi. Also, I have set bandwidth and specific channel numbers for the separate 2.4 and 5GHz networks, and that improved things - especially the 2.4GHz connection. Hyperoptic had to re-enable my phone, as their servers needed to see the changed modem! All good stuff :-)

      Hello! Hyperoptic allow you to use your own router - so you wouldn't need it plugged in alongside the Nokia one. As to which one to use.. I'm not sure!
      I believe there is a WiFi 6 router that HyperOptic are now supplying it's a ZTE one - someone mentioned it in the comments on my other Hyperoptic video. I'm gonna get in touch and see if they can send me it! :)
