Peplink Installation

Peplink Installation and SpeedFusion Bonding in Alberta

Peplink's distinguishing capability is what it does with more than one internet connection. Where most routers pick a primary and hold a second in reserve, Peplink hardware can use several simultaneously — balancing traffic across them, and with SpeedFusion, bonding them into a single logical link that a session can stay on even when one member connection fails outright.

That matters in Alberta more than the marketing suggests. A site with Starlink and a cellular connection has two links that fail for completely unrelated reasons: Starlink for obstruction and weather, cellular for congestion and tower distance. Bonded together, an active video call survives one of them dropping, because the session never sees a change of address.

We install and configure Peplink Balance and MAX hardware for fixed sites, remote operations and vehicles across Alberta, including SpeedFusion configuration where a hub endpoint is warranted. As with any cellular deployment, antenna siting does more for real throughput than the model number does, so it forms part of every installation.

Who This Service Is For

The situations where this work is usually the right answer.

Sites combining Starlink and cellular

Rural and remote locations with two imperfect connections that together can be made genuinely reliable.

Operations that cannot drop a session

Live video, remote monitoring, telehealth and streaming, where a failover that resets the connection is still an outage.

Multi-site businesses

Organisations linking branches and remote locations over SpeedFusion rather than relying on a single provider's private circuit.

Mobile and vehicle deployments

Mobile command, broadcast, service fleets and specialty vehicles needing continuous connectivity across changing coverage.

What the Installation Includes

Everything below is part of a standard engagement, not a list of chargeable extras.

  • Assessment of every available connection at the site and its realistic capacity
  • Signal survey for each cellular carrier at candidate antenna positions
  • Router model selection matched to WAN count, throughput and environment
  • Rack, wall, DIN rail or vehicle mounting as appropriate
  • External and MIMO antenna selection, mounting and cable routing
  • SIM installation and APN configuration across carriers
  • Multi-WAN load balancing rules and per-application traffic policy
  • SpeedFusion bonding and hot failover configuration where warranted
  • Health check tuning so a marginal link is detected before users are
  • Integration with existing firewall, VLAN and switching design
  • InControl 2 enrolment for remote management, alerting and reporting
  • Verified failure testing — each WAN pulled individually and behaviour observed

Our Process

How a project runs from first contact to handover.

  1. Connection audit and signal survey

    We establish what each available link actually delivers at the site — wired circuit, Starlink and each carrier — rather than what it is advertised to deliver.

  2. Design and hardware selection

    WAN count, throughput requirement, environment and whether SpeedFusion is justified determine the model and the antenna plan.

  3. Installation and antenna mounting

    Router mounted and powered, external antennas installed at surveyed positions, and coaxial routed and sealed with minimal run length.

  4. Multi-WAN and SpeedFusion configuration

    Load balancing rules, traffic policy, health checks and bonding are configured to match how the site actually uses its connections.

  5. Failure testing and handover

    Each WAN is disconnected in turn while a live session runs, so the behaviour is proven rather than assumed. Then InControl enrolment and documentation.

Equipment We Support

Peplink Balance series
Fixed-site multi-WAN routers combining wired circuits, Starlink and cellular, with load balancing and SpeedFusion support across a range of throughput tiers.
Peplink MAX series
Cellular-first routers with embedded modems for remote sites and vehicles, including ruggedised and DC-powered variants.
SpeedFusion bonding
Peplink's bonding technology, which combines multiple WANs into one logical tunnel so a session survives an individual link failing without reconnecting.
InControl 2
Cloud management for configuration, firmware, monitoring and alerting across deployed devices, including per-WAN performance history.
MIMO and directional antennas
Multi-element antennas that let each modem use spatial streams properly, mounted externally where the router's own position cannot see a usable signal.
