Hello everyone,

I always felt the Hyperwifi client is the slowest of all three Hyperdrive clients, I bet you noticed that too, and by now, you should know that I like fast high-performance tech.

Although, since the inspection of Hyperdrive, I couldn't find the time to enhancing the Hyperwifi client, it requires lots of research and testing, and the main focus was to make sure all clients and services were stable.

So instead of dedicating all my time to Hyperdrive, I'd shift my focus every time I'm free to do some research and testing.

So, I'm glad to announce that I have improved the startup speed by 70% with additional under the hood enhancements.

What's in this update#

• Hyperwifi VM now runs in memory, which makes it starts faster and protect against corruption.
• It is 50% smaller.
• Can deploy new Linux Kernel and security updates with little effort.
• magic CLI version updated to 1.2
• hyperwifi image version updated to 1.4

Check below the comparison video for the speed enhancements:

To install the new update, download the updated magic CLI tool by running the install script.

Next, run the wifi upgrade command to install the new Hyperwifi image.

Enjoy the enhancements!

Hello everyone,

Since the inception of Hyperdrive, we only had access to the default public SSID. Well, today this change. I would like to announce the "No One Left Behind" update, which brings a new feature that allows access to all Wifi networks.

To use this new feature, simply add the vlan ID for the network you would like to broadcast using hyperwifi.

Example:

Though before start using this new feature, please update your magic CLI tools, you can find the download link on the homepage. You also need to upgrade your hyperwifi image, can do that like so:

Worth to mention that this feature will be coming to hyperlite next.

For more info on how to use the hyperwifi CLI, checkout the Hyperwifi CLI help page or the Hyperwifi User Guide for installations and other other usage guides.

Hello everyone,

Introducing Hyperlite a new Hyperdrive client that is super easy to use. Made a quick demo video, pleases check it out: https://youtu.be/Ifwl7fxhmgM

Hyperlite has been semi-ready since last year, though with me being busy with other projects, also waiting on hardware parts, that gave me the chance to put few final touches. At the moment we have 10 units ready to ship, we will start by selecting few people who use Hyperdrive a lot so they can help us test this and make sure everything runs perfectly before we can send it to clients like Southwest who have trouble installing apps or using the command-line tool.

I’ve also launched the new Hyperdrive website with the main job to support Hyperlite. The new site includes in-depth documentation on using all Hyperdrive clients.

There is also a new magic CLI client, I've re-written the entire tool from scratch, it's now much easier to use, has a nested help system, config file for saving reoccurring arguments like the USB ID or the SSID name, it's also more consistent across all modes. The usage philosophy follows common CLI tools like Docker, Kubernetes, and other popular tools. So if you are used to any then you should be able to pick up this easily.

For more info, please check out the documentation page on the new website: https://hyperdrive.anuvu.com.

The old webpage still lives on the HTTP version of this domain but I will take it down once everything is good.

Hello everyone,

New updates improve user visibility when using hyperwifi with a USB adapter. Also fixes issues where users sometimes remove the USB adapter before stopping the instance “ctrl+c”, which causes the VM hypervisors “qemu” to freeze and keeps running in the background, resulting in an error on the next usage.

The magic cli will check if qemu still running and prompt the user to terminate it. The "initialize sequence complete" message will now only appears after all required network connections are up.

To update run the following commands:

magic cli:

hyperwifi image:

Following is the new initialize sequence. Notice the 3 required network interfaces going up before hyperwifi is considered operational.

Hello everyone,

Tonight, July 8, the Hyperdrive system will undergo maintenance from 5 pm - 9 pm CST/10 pm - 2 am UTC. During maintenance, the backend services and the VNC/Wifi clients will be patched to improve compatibly with certain ISPs.

• All active sessions "keys" should not be affected.
• New keys requests after the conclusion of the maintenance will require clients upgrade.
• Once clients are upgraded, they won't be compatible with prior keys, plan accordingly.

Clients upgrade can be done by running the commands:

• For use with VNC/noVNC clients:

• For use with Wifi USB adapters:

Otherwise, such output messages produced by the magic command will act as a reminder.

your hyperwifi image is out of date to upgrade run: magic -wifi -upgrade

Please let me know if notice any issues, sorry for the inconvenience.
