Speedify keeps you online when your internet drops. Bond Starlink with 5G, 4G, Wi-Fi, or Ethernet so satellite obstructions, dead zones, and dropouts can't take down your video calls, livestreams, or work. Plus a fast VPN to keep it all secure. Most apps switch between internet connections. Speedify uses all of them at the same time, splitting your traffic across every available link, so a single dropout never reaches your apps. Calls don't reset. Streams don't buffer. Uploads don't restart. You stay online. BUILT FOR STARLINK Starlink is fast, but it's not perfect. Satellite handoffs cause brief signal gaps. A tree branch or rain storm causes obstructions. A power blip takes the dish offline. Speedify covers all of it by bonding your Starlink with cellular, Wi-Fi, or a second connection, so when Starlink stutters, the other connection picks up the slack instantly. - Bond Starlink with 5G, 4G, Wi-Fi, or Ethernet - Real-time Starlink dish telemetry inside the app: see obstructions, alignment, signal quality, hardware and software versions - Get alerted to obstructions or hardware errors before they take you offline - Bond two Starlink dishes into one network for double the bandwidth and full redundancy - Works for fixed homes, RVs, boats, remote sites, and anywhere a single dish isn't enough WHO USES SPEEDIFY RV TRAVELERS & BOATERS: Combine Starlink with cellular so trees and dead zones don't end your work day. Pair & Share lets you bond connections with others traveling with you. REMOTE WORKERS: Stay on Zoom, Teams, and Google Meet without freezing when your home internet hiccups. LIVESTREAMERS & CREATORS: Combine Wi-Fi, cellular, and Starlink for smooth streams to Twitch, YouTube, and broadcast destinations. GAMERS: Reduce lag and packet loss by using all your connections at once. JOURNALISTS & FIELD CREWS: Bond every available connection for live broadcasts and file uploads from anywhere. HOW SPEEDIFY WORKS CHANNEL BONDING: Speedify merges all active connections into one fast, stable link. Traffic splits across all of them and reroutes in milliseconds if any connection drops. PAIR & SHARE: Bond cellular connections between multiple Speedify users on the same Wi-Fi. Great for road trips, field crews, and events. FAST, SECURE VPN: Hardware-accelerated encryption protects every app on your device without slowing you down. NO LOGS: Speedify never records the IP addresses you visit or the content of your traffic. 24/7 SUPPORT: Real humans, every day. Reach us at support@speedify.com.

What is the benefit of Net Optimizer? - Find & Connect the fastest DNS server based on your location & network. - Improve web surfing speed with faster response time. - Fix lag and reduce latency (ping time) on online games for a better gaming experience. Features - Just one touch to find & connect the fastest DNS server to improve your connection. - Automatically detect connection changes and optimize the network. - Works for both mobile data (3G/4G/5G) and WiFi connection - Supports many different DNS Servers (Cloudflare, Level3, Verisign, Google, DNS Watch, Comodo Secure, OpenDNS, SafeDNS, OpenNIC, SmartViper, Dyn, FreeDNS, Alternate DNS, Yandex DNS, UncensoredDNS, puntCAT, and more) How it works? If you have a high-speed Internet connection but notice that your web browsing speed isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be, then your problem may lie in the DNS. By optimizing your device's DNS records, you can find the fastest routes for your data packets to take when traveling the Internet. It won’t boost to your download/upload speed, but in some cases it can result in quite a noticeable improvement in web browsing time. At times, you may experience slow hiccups while trying to use the internet from your device. Sometimes, these problems can be attributed to your provider's DNS settings because your ISP may not always have the best DNS server speeds. Your default DNS server directly affects how fast you’ll be able to connect to a website. So choosing the fastest server according to your location will help speed up browsing. With Net Optimizer, you can find the fastest DNS server and connect to it with just one touch! So your browsing speed and gaming experience (ping and latency) can be improved. (But you should remember that DNS settings will not affect your internet download / upload speed but response time) Results Test results showed a 132.1 percent improvement from using Google's DNS servers over using the stock DNS servers, but in real world usage, it might not be exactly that much faster. Still, this one tweak might get you finally feeling like you have a blazing connection to the internet!
