How to Get a Continuous Internet Connection and Avoid Disconnects with Speedify

Continuously Monitor Your Internet Connection and Avoid Disconnects

The best thing about mobile devices (laptops, smartphones, tablets) is having a continuous Internet connection. Unfortunately, most of the time the connection isn’t continuous. A continuous Internet connection for most people is a dream, but not a reality. Cellular signal fluctuates between full bars and one bar. The smartphone or laptop clings to a WiFi connection long after it is out of range. It also takes forever to connect to a new WiFi hotspot.

It doesn’t have to be this way. It is possible for all of your mobile devices to enjoy a true continuous Internet connection. See how Speedify helps you achieve this goal.

Quick answer

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.

Speedify bonds any two connections into one — automatic failover, more speed, no dropped calls.

Why Is the Internet Continuously Connecting and Disconnecting?

The issue is your smartphone, tablet or laptop is not designed for continuous connectivity. By default, it sends all Internet traffic over one active connection:

  • for smartphones and tablets: the cell network or WiFi connection.
  • for laptops: the WiFi connection or wired Ethernet connection or any USB network adapters you may have.

If you are relying on your mobile network signal and you lose coverage, you lose your Internet connection. If you are on a WiFi network and then you move to a new location or the WiFi encounters issues, your connection is gone.

Speedify Gets You a Continuous Internet Connection

Speedify unlocks the full power of your mobile device and helps you stay connected to the Internet, no matter what. Speedify allows your smartphone, tablet or laptop to connect to all active connections at the same time.

If something happens with one connection, your web traffic is automatically routed through the other connection, without you having to do anything. Something happened to your WiFi connection, like you moving out of range or connecting to a bad WiFi hotspot? Speedify automatically connects you to either a different connection type (cellular, wired Ethernet) or to the next strongest WiFi network. You won’t even notice anything has changed.

The Speedify app works in the background managing your connections—and it doesn’t drain your battery either.

Always Connected, Fast Internet Wherever You Go

Speedify not only ensures that you are always connected, it also makes sure you have the fastest connection possible. Speedify makes dead zones and painfully slow public WiFi a thing of the past. Even better, Speedify is smart enough to prioritize your traffic. If you want, you can have Speedify use WiFi whenever possible, preserving your precious data for when you absolutely need it.

Walk around the city, hop on a train, take an Uber—no matter what you do you can enjoy true continuous connectivity and lightning fast service with Speedify. Imagine binge watching your favorite show or live streaming your downtown adventures without dealing with lag or losing your connection. That is the power of Speedify’s continuous connectivity.

More Than a Continuous Internet Connection: Speedify Also Protects Your Data and Privacy

Sometimes public WiFi hotspots can make you vulnerable to cyberattacks. When you use the Speedify app on your mobile device it will also encrypt your web traffic with advanced technology that doesn’t slow down your phone, but keeps you safe and your data private. It keeps your data safe from the prying eyes of ISPs and hackers. And it doesn’t keep any browsing logs either!
