Don’t Lose Your Work Because of Slow Internet – Use Speedify to Combine Starlink, Wi-Fi, 4G / 5G Cellular and Other Connections at the Same Time
Cloud storage has become an incredibly important part of our day-to-day lives. Important documents and files in the cloud can be accessed from all your devices, and storage services like Google Drive are continuing to become increasingly important for everyone who is hoping to hang onto all those pictures and videos that they take on their smartphone every day.
The problem is, Google Drive, like every other cloud storage application, requires fast, stable connectivity in order to operate at any time. While automatic syncing and downloading of documents, images, and videos can be interrupted or fail to load altogether, manually downloading that important homework document when you’re in class can be equally problematic without a strong LTE or Wi-Fi connection.
Should you have a backup 4G, 5G, Starlink, or cable internet connection?
Yes — every internet connection goes down, including Starlink, which drops for ~34 minutes a day on average. A backup connection from a different provider means one outage never takes you fully offline. The most common options are a 4G/5G cellular hotspot, a cable or DSL line, or a second satellite dish.
