Issues with Online Streaming Video Playback? Put an End to Slow Loading and Buffering Videos
When videos are taking so long to load, the player is waiting to refill its buffer: it keeps a small store of video ahead of what you are watching, and when your internet connection slows, that store empties faster than it refills. That pause to refill is buffering.
Speedify is an app that carries your internet traffic over several internet connections at once, such as Wi-Fi, 4G/5G cellular, Ethernet and Starlink, so a slow moment on one does not stop the video. That needs two or more internet connections; on a single connection Speedify works as an encrypted VPN and cannot stop that connection from dropping.
Speedify stops the buffering when your provider slows down
The sections below cover why videos load slowly even on fast internet, what changes once Speedify is running, and how the app protects your data.
Why Videos Load Slow on Good Internet
You can hit this issue even when you pay your ISP for a fast internet connection. A full HD (1080p) streaming video should load without issues on a 10 Mbps connection, even with some browsing or social media on the side. So why are videos loading slow on a connection that fast?
Here are some possible causes:
- There are temporary technical issues with your ISP: you may be getting lower bandwidth than what you’re paying for. Run an online speed test and check this out.
- Your ISP has peering issues with the streaming platform. For example, your YouTube videos may load and play just fine, but you may be experiencing buffering and slow loading videos with others, such as Twitch, Vimeo or Hulu.
- Your ISP may be throttling data to some platforms. The symptoms are similar to the above, only this time it’s intentional from the ISP. Check here if your ISP is throttling your connection.
- If you’re traveling or on the move, your laptop or mobile device may lose the continuity of the internet connection while roaming between Wi-Fi hotspots and 4G/5G cellular.
Of course, if the bandwidth that you’re getting according to the contract is too low, you should expect this type of issues. In this case, the best solution would be to upgrade to a better Internet package or combine 2 or more connections.
How Speedify Fixes Videos Loading Slow
Speedify is a VPN app that combines connections, allowing you to use multiple Internet connections simultaneously. This gives you more bandwidth for your streaming videos, so you see far less buffering and fewer frozen or slow loading videos.
Speedify also comes with auto failover protection. This means that if one of your connections fails, Speedify automatically reroutes all the traffic through your available connection. This happens in the background without you having to do anything. You just get to keep enjoying your streaming videos.
Speedify Also Protects Your Online Data
With Speedify, you not only get a faster internet connection; your connection is also more secure. Speedify protects you from compromised Wi-Fi networks and snooping hackers, and uses encryption to keep your private data under your control.
Before Speedify, users often had to choose between security and speed. With two or more connections combined, Speedify gives you both, and your videos stop to load far less often.
