Starlink is a great Internet option for those who live in remote areas and where the other ISPs don’t offer high speed connectivity. According to various Reddit threads, Starlink download and upload speeds can go as high as a few hundred Mbps.
Internet is not all about speed. A good connection has to also be reliable and not to disconnect randomly or whenever there are clouds in the sky.
You can boost your slow Starlink: combine it with another Internet source like another Starlink or DSL, 4G, 5G. Whether at home, work, or on-the-go, Speedify works with all live streaming software and social platforms to get you faster, more reliable and secure Internet.
Most Starlink users already run a second connection.
From a sample of 6,228 Starlink users on Speedify, 71% ran at least one other internet connection while using Starlink. Cellular is the most common choice of backup connection.

4 Steps to Boost Starlink Internet with Additional Connections
This is extremely useful when you’re working remotely, playing games online, having a lot of video calls or live streaming. You must make sure the Internet never fails you. So here’s what you need to do.
Step 1: Connect to Starlink Wi-Fi from Your Computer
The easiest way to do this is connect to the Starlink Wi-Fi network from your PC, Mac or Linux computer – select it from the list of Wi-Fi hotspots, enter the password and you should be connected.
If you don’t have a Wi-Fi adapter, you can use an external USB Wi-Fi adapter.
