Looking for Bonding VDSL / ADSL Modems / Wireless Routers? Your PC Can Do That with the Right Software
Rather than buying a dedicated bonded DSL modem/router, you can turn a Windows PC into one that combines two or more DSL lines for more bandwidth and a connection that keeps working if one line drops. The software that makes this possible is Speedify, which bonds two or more internet connections at once for faster upload and download speeds and automatic failover.
This guide shows how to set it up on Windows and share the bonded connection to your other devices.
With Speedify, your internet stays on when one connection fails.
When one of your connections drops, Speedify automatically routes your traffic to your remaining connections — so calls don't cut out and downloads don't stall.
How do I use WiFi and 4G/5G cellular at the same time with Speedify?
Pick your two internet connections and your device below and we'll take you to the step-by-step setup guide.
Fixing Slow Broadband Connections with Broadband Bonding
Broadband bonding takes two or more separate Internet connections and combines them together into a single, incredibly fast pipe. You can combine any type of connections together.
In our case of bonded DSL, you can combine two or more xDSL connections to get a pipe much faster that either of them could ever offer.
When you use a bonded DSL modem / router, your computer, and all of your connected devices, will all treat all connections as a single link to the Internet. You can effectively multiply your bandwidth.
This means you never have to deal with buffering videos or music. You never have connection issues. You don’t have to worry about your neighbors taking up too much bandwidth when you use broadband bonding.
Why Use the Speedify Software App Instead of Bonding DSL Modem / Router Devices
Bonded DSL modems / routers are dedicated networking devices that connect to xDSL connections from Internet service providers and manage to use them at the same time for their aggregated bandwidth. However, there are a few caveats you should consider if you’re looking for such a device:
- compatibility with your ISP
- supported protocols
- frequency of firmware upgrades
- how easy it is to configure them
- cost
Speedify is a software-based solution for bonded DSL connections. Instead of buying an expensive piece of hardware, you can download Speedify for free on iOS, Android, Windows, and Mac devices. Just connect your computer to the available xDSL connections and Speedify will do its combining job.
Speedify works to secure, manage and monitor the quality of your Internet connections. It takes care of the broadband bonding. If one connection goes offline, it automatically reroutes all Internet activity through the remaining connection until the lost connection comes back online.
Plus, as a fast bonding VPN, it secures all your online traffic, making you anonymous on the Internet. You will be able to enjoy restricted online content from everywhere in the world and be protected against snoops and cyber criminals.
Turn Your PC into a Bonded DSL Modem / Router
As mentioned above, you can easily combine multiple xDSL connections on your computer using Speedify. Just make sure to connect all those connections to your computer through your internal network adapters / external WiFi and ethernet USB adapters. Speedify will automatically recognize and combine them.
If you want your other devices to benefit from the increase bandwidth, you can choose to turn your PC into a wireless bonded DSL router and share the combined super-pipe via WiFi.
You need to:
- Get all your xDSL connections active on your Windows PC.
- Run Speedify to combine connections and Connectify Hotpot to share them via WiFi to your other devices.
- Share your Speedify connection via WiFi through the Connectify Hotspot software for Windows.
