How to Boost Starlink Upload and Download Speeds Using an iPhone or Android and DSL or Cable with Speedify

Starlink is a great Internet option for those who live in remote areas and where the other ISPs don’t offer high speed connectivity. According to various Reddit threads, Starlink download and upload speeds can go as high as a few hundred Mbps.

Internet is not all about speed. A good connection has to also be reliable and not to disconnect randomly or whenever there are clouds in the sky.

You can boost your slow Starlink: combine it with another Internet source like another Starlink or DSL, 4G, 5G. Whether at home, work, or on-the-go, Speedify works with all live streaming software and social platforms to get you faster, more reliable and secure Internet.

4 Steps to Boost Starlink Internet with Additional Connections

This is extremely useful when you’re working remotely, playing games online, having a lot of video calls or live streaming. You must make sure the Internet never fails you. So here’s what you need to do.

Step 1: Connect to Starlink Wi-Fi from Your Computer

The easiest way to do this is connect to the Starlink Wi-Fi network from your PC, Mac or Linux computer – select it from the list of Wi-Fi hotspots, enter the password and you should be connected.

If you don’t have a Wi-Fi adapter, you can use an external USB Wi-Fi adapter.

Step 2: Connect to a Cable / DSL Internet Connection via Wired Ethernet

Just plug in the Ethernet cable coming from the cable / DSL router to your PC, Mac or Linux computer. It should connect automatically.

If you don’t have an Ethernet port, you can use an external USB Ethernet adapter.

Step 3: Tether Your iPhone or Android Smartphone to Your Computer via USB

Connect the smartphone to your PC, Mac or Linux computer with its USB cable. You may have to install additional software – see below some guides on that.

Step 4: Download and Install Speedify

Last but certainly not least, download and install Speedify. Once running, Speedify will automatically detect any available Internet connections and combine them for increased speed, security, and stability. This means you should see your Starlink Wi-Fi connection as well as your cable / DSL wired Ethernet connection and tethered iPhone or Android in the app’s user interface.

You can manage settings, view statistics, and even apply limits to individual connections by either clicking/tapping on them from the Dashboard or by navigating to the desired connection through the main Settings menu.

Speedify will work quietly in the background to optimize performance including prioritizing streaming web traffic to avoid stuttering, buffering and disconnects.
