Faster Game-day Connections on DraftKings
Fantasy Sports apps like DraftKings are becoming more and more popular every day. With the number of users growing exponentially, it seems like everyone is getting into DraftKings hoping to become rich by wagering on their favorite sporting events. Typically, fantasy sports require a tedious season-long commitment, but with DraftKings and other Fantasy Sports apps, users can draft a team, stay updated with their smartphone, and reap the reward (or suffer a loss) all in one day. But, as we’ve learned from frustrated users on popular Fantasy Sports message boards, poor Wi-Fi or LTE connections can mean slow statistics updates and a “laggy” experience that can cost users real hard earned money.
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.
4G/5G cellular
Works anywhere. Just a SIM or hotspot — no installation needed.

Best for fixed locations. Different network, so outages rarely overlap.
Learn more →Second Starlink
Adds redundancy and throughput for remote sites or heavy usage.
