You Can Combine Multiple Internet Connections Together – Like Starlink, Wi-Fi, 4G, 5G, and DSL – with Speedify, to Fix Slow Facebook Messenger
A Messenger call that breaks up, or a message that sits with a spinning circle while the other person waits, usually has nothing to do with the app. One internet connection drops for a second or two, and Facebook Messenger has nothing to send through in that gap.
Speedify is an app that carries your internet traffic over two or more internet connections at the same time – Wi-Fi, 4G/5G cellular data, wired Ethernet, Starlink and others – so a stumble on one of them does not stall the conversation.
Read on to see what a steadier internet connection changes for Facebook Messenger, and how Speedify keeps your messages and calls private on the way.
Should you have a backup 4G, 5G, Starlink, or cable internet connection?
Yes — every internet connection goes down, including Starlink, which drops for ~34 minutes a day on average. A backup connection from a different provider means one outage never takes you fully offline. The most common options are a 4G/5G cellular hotspot, a cable or DSL line, or a second satellite dish.
4G/5G cellular
Works anywhere. Just a SIM or hotspot — no installation needed.

Adds redundancy and throughput for remote sites or heavy usage.

A better Internet connection for Facebook Messenger
In order to use Facebook Messenger as a real time live chat tool (including calling), what you need to do is fix the way your phone or computer uses the spotty Internet connections you may be connected to.
Speedify uses the full power of your phone to keep you connected to the web. Instead of only using WiFi or your mobile data connection, Speedify uses both connections at the same time delivering you a faster, more reliable internet experience.
When you are using Speedify if you accidentally go out of range of Wi-Fi while on a Facebook Messenger call, Speedify will automatically begin using your other working internet connections.
Facebook Messenger Privacy
But Speedify does more than just improve your Facebook Messenger connection, as explained above. It also protects the privacy of your online data and from online cyber threats. Using VPN for mobility technology, built with the latest encryption standards, you are kept safe from unprotected networks and prying eyes, without sacrificing speed. Even on public Wi-Fi networks!
