Bonded Internet for Events: Use Speedify to Keep Live Coverage Online by Combining Wi-Fi, Ethernet and 4G/5G Cellular

Fast Internet at Events is Paramount

A corporate event puts a hard deadline on a network that nobody controls. The venue Wi-Fi is shared with every other attendee, and a presentation that stalls or a stream that drops happens in front of the audience.

Speedify is software that bonds the venue Wi-Fi with 4G/5G cellular and wired Ethernet at once, so one congested connection does not decide how the event goes.

Read on to see why event internet matters so much, what bonded internet changes, and how the same setup handles security on a shared network.

How Useful is Bonded Internet for Events

If you hold the event outside the company campus, you’ll most probably be limited with internet speeds.

Depending on your internet provider, you can visit their coverage map to see the level of service they can offer in a specific area. For example, you can see the AT&T coverage map here.

If you need more bandwidth than what’s provided by the internet company in a single connection, you’ll need bonded internet for events. Bonded internet will combine multiple internet channels. This results in a faster online experience that’s required to run any good corporate event.

Another advantage of using bonded internet for events is its reliability. If one connection fails, there are others to serve as a backup so you won’t go offline.

Channel bonding is usually done with the help of dedicated hardware. There are devices that can plug in various internet connections. Here’s what you need extra along with the hardware:

  • pay to rent the equipment. After the event is over, bonded Internet is gone.
  • specialist engineers to manage and run that hardware. The companies that offer channel bonding services on rent generally send their own people and hardware for your event.

But now, several companies have started using software channel bonding services that are easier and cheaper to run. They are more efficient and don’t require a special setup. Speedify is one such channel bonding software option.

Your Corporate Event Needs Online Security Along with Fast and Stable Internet

Whether you’re discussing new ways to increase sales or how to manage a particular project, your corporate data should be safe. As should the online privacy of your event’s attendees.

As you might already be aware, there are hackers out there who’d be dying to get a taste of your confidential business data. The internet is an unsecured channel and anyone who is able to sit on your network can easily read what you’re sending on it.

If the companies that bond several internet channels don’t take care of their security aspects, your data can be stolen. You need to make sure that your data is secure and out of reach of hackers.

For this, you can use a VPN. A VPN encrypts your data and sends it through one of its remote servers. This way, even if someone is trying to tap into your communication, they’ll be unable to do that because the traffic will be encrypted.

While the information stored on the local devices might be safe in securely locked data centers, the data in transit can only be protected by encrypting it. Most businesses understand the importance of data security and use VPNs when working online.
