Can I Use Wi-Fi, Ethernet, Starlink and 4G/5G Cellular at Once on Mac Mini and Mac Pro?

Use Ethernet, Wi-Fi and Cellular at the Same Time on Mac Mini / Pro

Just to clarify: we're not talking about switching between connections - Wi-Fi, Ethernet, cellular dongle, etc. We're saying you can use all your available connections simultaneously on your Mac Mini or Mac Pro. That's great news, as your connection will get faster and more stable. Your Mac will be able to harness both the download and upload bandwidth of your connections.

How to combine connections on Mac Mini? You need a software channel bonding / link aggregation solution that will unlock the potential of your Mac. See below on how Speedify can help you.

Why Combine Connections on Mac Mini / Pro?

Two words: speed and reliability for your Internet connectivity. As long as you have access to multiple connections, why not use them? Think about it:

  • your home Internet is wired Ethernet or Wi-Fi
  • you can tether your cell phone to your Mac for a cellular connection
  • you can also connect to a public Wi-Fi nearby - from a restaurant or from your city.

And you can add other options to that list as well.

When you combine all you available connections on your Mac Mini / Pro (to use them simultaneously), the resulting connection should be faster and more stable. This will help with bandwidth-intensive apps like live streaming, video calls, online gaming, remote learning, etc.

Getting Started with All of Your Internet Connections Simultaneously

In order to combine connections at once on your Mac Mini and Mac Pro, you need a link aggregation software solution, as mentioned above. Speedify is a fast bonding VPN that solves the compromise you have to do when choosing privacy & security over speed. With Speedify you get security, speed and reliability for your Internet connection, having the peace of mind you’ll be “always on”.

Here's what you have to do to combine connections on Mac Mini / Pro:

  1. First - get Speedify from the App Store or directly from speedify.com.
  2. Connect your Mac Mini / Pro to all available networks - wired Ethernet, Wi-Fi, tethered phones, USB cellular dongles, etc. - see our online knowledge base on how to do that or check out the combining widget below.
    For best results, make sure the connections you're combining are from different upstream networks. For example - don't connect to both wired Ethernet and Wi-Fi from the same router.
  3. Run Speedify. As long as your Mac Mini / Mac Pro recognizes the connections, you will be able to combine them and get faster and more stable Internet.
