Speedify Lets You Use a Second Starlink on Your Account for More Reliable Internet and Faster Upload and Download Speeds
Yes, you can have multiple Starlink dishes on one Starlink account. Each Starlink dish on your account needs its own subscription.
Having two Starlink dishes on one account doesn’t make them work together, though. Your computer or phone still uses one Starlink dish at a time. Speedify, an app that uses all your internet connections at the same time, sends your internet traffic over both Starlink dishes at once, so you get more speed and stay online if one of them drops. That also works with a Starlink Mini alongside your main dish.
Speedify combines multiple Starlink dishes for failover and faster uploads and downloads
What You Get When You Add a Second Starlink Dish to Your Account
Each Starlink dish on your account is a separate internet connection, with its own Starlink router and its own Wi-Fi network. For the steps to add one, see how to add a second Starlink dish to your account.
On its own, a second Starlink dish doesn’t add up with the first one. Your device connects to one Starlink dish at a time, and if that Starlink dish drops, your video call or upload drops with it. To use both Starlink internet connections at the same time, you need an app that combines them.
Both Starlink dishes also use the same Starlink network. A problem with one Starlink dish, or with its view of the sky, won’t take you offline, but a Starlink outage in your area affects both. For a backup that doesn’t depend on Starlink, add 4G/5G cellular as well.
How Speedify Uses Two Starlink Dishes from One Account at the Same Time
Speedify runs on your device and keeps checking both Starlink internet connections: their speed, their delay and how much data they lose. When both work well, Speedify sends your internet traffic over both and gives you nearly the full speed of both Starlink dishes combined. When one Starlink dish weakens or drops, Speedify moves everything to the other one, and your video calls and downloads keep going.
Speedify also encrypts all your internet traffic across both Starlink internet connections.
How to Use Two Starlink Dishes on One Account Together with Speedify
If you already have one Starlink dish set up on your account, here’s what to do:
Step 1: Set Up Your Second Starlink Dish
Add the second Starlink dish to your Starlink account and set it up with the Starlink app. It comes with its own Starlink router and Wi-Fi network.
Step 2: Connect Your Device to Both Starlink Routers
Connect your computer to the first Starlink router with an Ethernet cable or over Wi-Fi, and to the second Starlink router the other way. If you want to use the same kind of connection for both, add a USB Ethernet adapter or a USB Wi-Fi adapter. Check your network settings to make sure both Starlink internet connections are active.
Step 3: Download and Run Speedify
Download Speedify on your device. Speedify finds both Starlink internet connections and starts using them together right away, with no settings to change.
From then on, Speedify handles both Starlink dishes in the background: it combines them for faster uploads and downloads, watches for drops, moves your traffic when one Starlink dish struggles, and encrypts everything. For a phone setup, see how to combine two Starlink connections on iPhone.

Speedify Shows the Status and Alerts of Both Starlink Dishes Side by Side
The Starlink app shows one Starlink dish at a time, because every Starlink dish uses the same 192.168.100.1 address. Speedify shows the live status and real-time Starlink dish alerts for each of your Starlink dishes in one place. If either Starlink dish has a stuck motor, a pole that isn’t straight, or is overheating, Speedify shows the alert once the problem has lasted 15 seconds, and clears it when it’s fixed.
