The best alternative to the Starlink Ethernet adapter, if you want more than a wired port, is a router or app that uses Starlink together with your other internet connections. The Starlink Ethernet adapter only adds a wired port to the Starlink router. It can’t add speed, and it can’t keep you online when Starlink drops.
Speedify uses Starlink, 4G/5G cellular, Ethernet and Wi-Fi at the same time, and switches your traffic to the others the moment one drops. Speedify runs as an app on computers and phones, and on routers built to run Speedify, so you get faster, more reliable internet than any adapter can give you.
Speedify combines Starlink internet connections with no extra hardware needed
What the Starlink Ethernet Adapter Does, and What It Can’t Do
The Starlink Ethernet adapter does one job: it gives the Starlink router a wired Ethernet port. That covers a desk computer or your own router, but for a business it leaves the same gaps as Starlink alone:
- One internet connection: everything still runs over the one Starlink dish.
- No backup: when Starlink drops, the adapter has nothing to switch to.
- The same top speed: the adapter passes on whatever speed Starlink gives at that moment, never more.
- No control over what goes first: a video call and a large download compete for the same Starlink internet connection.
How Speedify Gives You More Than the Starlink Ethernet Adapter
Routers and apps powered by Speedify do what the adapter can’t:
- Several internet connections at once: Speedify uses Starlink together with another Starlink dish, 4G/5G cellular, or a DSL or cable line.
- The best internet connection for each moment: Speedify sends your traffic over whichever internet connections work best right now, and changes as conditions change.
- Calls and streams first: Speedify puts video calls, internet phone calls and live streams ahead of downloads.
- No dropped calls when one internet connection fails: Speedify moves your traffic to the other internet connections, so calls and sessions keep going.
Speedify needs that second internet connection: with Starlink alone, it can’t add speed or cover a drop.
Two Ways Businesses Set Up Speedify with Starlink
A router that runs Speedify. Routers built for it, like the Miri X510, connect to Starlink and your other internet connections at the same time, and give you:
- Several ports for Starlink and your other internet connections
- Built-in or plug-in 4G/5G cellular modems
- Management screens for your IT team
- Security features for business networks
- A setup that takes little configuration
Speedify on your own hardware. For sites that need something custom, Speedify runs on a small computer or server you choose. That lets you:
- Pick hardware that fits each site
- Keep using your existing network management tools
- Add more sites and more internet connections as you grow
Either way, you get far more than a wired port: one setup that uses every internet connection you have.
Where Businesses Use Speedify Instead of a Starlink Ethernet Adapter
Emergency response teams set up command centers that use Starlink together with any cellular or wired internet connection still working after a disaster.
Mining, oil and gas sites use Starlink, 4G/5G cellular and older satellite internet together, so work continues when one of them fails.
Retail chains keep card payments, stock systems and customer Wi-Fi running at every store.
Emergency vehicles carry mobile command centers that stay online wherever they park.
Construction firms connect temporary job sites in a day with whatever internet connections are available.
What Your Business Gets from Speedify Compared to a Starlink Ethernet Adapter
Less downtime. When one internet connection drops, staff keep working on the others.
More speed. You get the speed of all your internet connections combined, not just one.
Fewer support calls. Speedify switches your traffic on its own, so your IT team makes fewer site visits for internet problems.
Room to change. When a faster internet connection becomes available at a site, you add it to Speedify instead of replacing your setup.
For businesses: Speedify can use every Starlink dish and internet connection at your sites together. Contact Us to plan the setup with the Speedify team.
For home users: Download Speedify on your computer and use your Starlink internet connection together with your phone’s 4G/5G cellular data.
