Connect to Wi-Fi and Ethernet Connections Simultaneously and Join Them for Better Internet
You can use Wi-Fi and Ethernet at the same time on Ubuntu Linux.
Speedify is an app that combines two or more internet connections at once, such as Wi-Fi and Ethernet, so you get faster uploads and downloads and stay online if one connection drops out. For faster speeds, the Wi-Fi and the Ethernet need to come from two different internet services, such as home broadband over Ethernet and a phone’s Wi-Fi hotspot. Wi-Fi and Ethernet from the same router share one internet line, so they add no speed. With only one internet connection, Speedify works as an encrypted VPN and cannot make that connection faster or stop it from dropping.
Speedify uses every internet connection your device has, at the same time
Speedify is the only app that joins together your Starlink, Wi-Fi, 4G / 5G cellular, wired, and even your friend’s phone signals – and turns them into one ultra-fast and super secure link that keeps you all connected for the best possible live streaming, video calling, or just posting to your favorite app.
Speedify can join any number or combination of Internet connections and will intelligently distribute your online traffic among them for optimal performance. Plus, if you get disconnected from one of your connections in the middle of an important video call or file transfer, Speedify will seamlessly failover to your other working Internet connection(s) without skipping a beat.
NOTE: For best results, use Internet connections from different sources. In general, joining the same upstream network multiple times (such as the same router via Ethernet and Wi-Fi) will not improve performance.
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.
3 Steps to Join Wi-Fi and Ethernet at the Same Time on Ubuntu Linux
Step 1: Connect your Ethernet cable to your Ubuntu Computer
Connect an Ethernet cable from your router or modem to the Ethernet port on your Ubuntu computer. If your computer has no Ethernet port, use a USB to Ethernet adapter. Ubuntu starts using the Ethernet connection on its own, and the system menu at the top right shows it as a wired connection.
Step 2: Connect to Wi-Fi
Click on the arrow in the top right corner (also known as the System Menu) then Wi-Fi > Select Network and choose your desired network. Keep in mind, private networks may require you to enter a password before connecting.
Step 3: Download and Install Speedify
Last but certainly not least, download and install Speedify. Once running, Speedify will automatically detect any available Internet connections and join them together for increased speed, security, and stability.
Need to keep several devices connected in areas with limited or spotty network coverage, like event venues, remote locations or when traveling? Get consistent and uninterrupted online activity for all your devices using Speedify's cellular sharing functionality, which allows you to share cellular data between multiple devices wirelessly.
By pairing devices, you can effectively distribute your cellular connection across them, improving overall performance, especially when other network options like Wi-Fi may be slow or unstable.
You can manage settings, view statistics, and even apply limits to individual connections by either clicking/tapping on them from the Dashboard or by navigating to the desired connection through the main Settings menu.
Speedify will work quietly in the background to optimize performance including prioritizing streaming web traffic to avoid stuttering, buffering and disconnects.
Whether at home, work, or on-the-go, Speedify is the only VPN that makes your online experiences faster, more reliable, and more secure.
