Hyperfibre Broadband
Go full throttle with Hyperfibre Broadband as you blaze through ultra-high-definition video, experience low-latency gaming, and enjoy multi-device immersive digital experiences simultaneously. If Hyperfibre Broadband isn’t yet available at your address, browse our range of Fibre broadband plans.
*Average download / upload peak speeds are specific to our plans and are based on Commerce Commission’s Measuring Broadband New Zealand (MBNZ) September 2024 report which is based on data collected during the month of July 2024. The speed you experience at any time given may be higher or lower than these averages and depends on factors including the performance of your modem, location of the server, your computer / phone and how your WiFi has been set up.
**Average download peak speed is the average of all tested Fibre 50 plans (see MBNZ report). Average upload peak speed is estimated national peak time average speeds.

Hyperfibre FAQs
Hyperfibre is now available in more than 75% of New Zealand’s towns and cities. Currently, you can get Hyperfibre 2 and Hyperfibre 4 via Chorus and Tuatahi First Fibre in select UFB1 areas. For those living in Christchurch, you can get Hyperfibre via Enable. Northpower does not currently support Hyperfibre. To see if your address currently supports Hyperfibre, please use our handy address checker.
If your home already has fibre installed, a fibre technician will need to come out to your address to change your current Optical Network Terminal (ONT) to one that’s capable of handling Hyperfibre's speeds. As a reminder, the ONT is the box that usually sits in your garage or lounge and connects the internet cable from the street access to your home. If you already have Hyperfibre installed and are simply upgrading to a different Hyperfibe plan, there’s no need for a technician’s visit.
At the moment, no. To ensure you get the best possible speeds from your new Hyperfibre connection, you will need to use our dedicated Hyperfibre modem which is included in your plan. In the meantime, we’re working on making older modems compatible with Hyperfibre and hope to roll this out in the future.
