Unbreakable VPN Connection to Fix TunnelBear Disconnects by Combining Starlink, Wi-Fi, 4G, 5G, and DSL with Speedify
We all love TunnelBear, both for the secure VPN service they provide and also for the very nice branding they do, with their “bears”. But sometimes you may be running into un”bear”able connection issues when using TunnelBear and just want to make it work properly. Usually, TunnelBear slows down your Internet connection and/or disconnects right after you connect to the servers or at random times. This may leave you unprotected to cyber threats and doesn’t make any sense using it forward.
The reason many users get disconnected while using TunnelBear VPN is the way it, and most other VPN services, was designed.
Speedify delivers an unbreakable VPN connection by intelligently bonding multiple internet sources, ensuring continuous uptime and encrypted protection.
Why Speedify's VPN Tunnel is Unbreakable vs Other VPNs
Most VPNs stop working the moment one of your internet connections has a problem. If your Wi-Fi glitches, or your device briefly switches between 4G / 5G and Starlink, you can suddenly lose your VPN connection.
Speedify is built to prevent that. Instead of relying on just one connection, Speedify can use all your available internet connections at the same time: Wi-Fi, Ethernet, 4G / 5G cellular, even Starlink or other satellite. If one connection slows down or drops, Speedify instantly moves your traffic to another internet source so your VPN stays connected and your online activity isn’t interrupted.
In this video, you’ll see how Speedify keeps your internet connection secure, smooth, and reliable by intelligently spreading your encrypted data across the available connections. The result: an unbreakable VPN tunnel.
Combining multiple internet sources like WiFi, 4G, 5G, & Starlink together makes Speedify's secure VPN tunnels unbreakable
Combine internet connections for better bandwidth and signal strength
No matter how secure your VPN is, if you experience a drop in your Internet connection, either your VPN tunnel will break leaving you unprotected, or you’ll be stuck offline. Speedify is the only VPN that seamlessly combines all of your connections, including WiFi, 4G, 5G, Ethernet, and Starlink, into one unbreakable connection to keep you online and secure.
Speedify will automatically detect any available Internet connections on your device, encrypting and intelligently distributing your online traffic between them for optimal performance. If you need help we have quick start guides available for most common set ups.
Join multiple mobile personal hotspots at the same time
Speedify's Pair & Share is a feature that enables you to connect to multiple personal hotspots at the same time and wirelessly share LTE, 4G, and 5G cellular connections back and forth between multiple Speedify users on the same local network to create a faster, more reliable connection for everyone.
With Speedify, all of your available internet sources - even shared personal hotspots - are combined inside the secure VPN tunnel with your encrypted traffic intelligently distributed between them, while split tunneling allows blocked sites to bypass. So, if any connection slows down or drops out, the VPN tunnel stays active and the other connections will automatically take over to keep you securely, seamlessly connected.
Why Does TunnelBear Keep Disconnecting on You?
TunnelBear VPN only uses one Internet connection to route all the data to the VPN server. Even if your desktop or mobile device has multiple Internet connections, TunnelBear will only use one of them. When connecting to the VPN server it uses a single socket. This means that your Internet connection will run slower because all the data being sent to and from your device must first be sent to the VPN server for encryption through one channel.
This uses up a lot of your bandwidth. But, not only does it slow down your Internet experience, it also makes the VPN connection vulnerable. One change to your Wi-Fi signal or a fluctuation in your cell signal and you are disconnected from the TunnelBear VPN server. If you are traveling (by train, bus or car) or on the move, your connection is even more prone to frequent disconnects, as you get passed between multiple Wi-Fi networks and/or cell towers.
How to Deal with TunnelBear Disconnects in 5 Easy Steps
One is wondering: what can you do to stay connected to the TunnelBear VPN? There are a few steps you can take to minimize your chances of getting disconnected. But, because the problem is a design issue in the way TunnelBear and other legacy VPN services are designed, you will always be vulnerable to getting disconnected while using these other services.
To minimize TunnelBear VPN disconnects you can:
- Only connect through Wi-Fi where you have a strong, stable signal and where no one else is sharing the connection.
- Remain stationary while connected to the TunnelBear VPN.
- Plan on using TunnelBear VPN for only short amounts of time.
- If you have to connect to TunnelBear VPN using your mobile data connection, make sure you do so from a location where you have the strongest signal possible.
- Limit your data use while connected to TunnelBear VPN. Videos and images use a lot more data to transmit than text.
Speedify Fixes TunnelBear Disconnects and Other Connection Issues
If these steps are not practical for you there is an alternative. The developers at Speedify have created a new VPN for mobility platform. The Speedify protocol was designed from the ground up to be three things:
- Fast
- Secure
- Reliable
Speedify uses a completely different design from the traditional VPNs. It uses multiple Internet connections and multiple parallel sockets. Your data travels to and from the VPN server faster and it is encrypted faster.
Try Speedify for yourself
Speedify also uses cutting-edge channel bonding technology to allow your iPhone or laptop to connect to the Internet using multiple Internet connections at the same time – e.g. via Wi-Fi and mobile data simultaneously.
