Bottom line: you have Starlink Internet issues. You can boost your slow Starlink: combine it with another Internet source like another Starlink or DSL, 4G, 5G.

Reasons for Starlink Internet Issues
Starlink is the best satellite Internet solution available right now, but there are still lots of ways it can generate connection issues. Here are a few reasons why your Starlink may be slow and unreliable:
- your dish is obstructed – that’s actually the easiest way to mess up your Starlink connection. Obviously, you shouldn’t have something covering your dish. But even if you don’t, you might still have a tree or part of your roof, off to the side partially obstructing your connection as the satellites move around overhead.
Solution: make sure the dish is not obstructed in any way. You can check the obstruction map in your Starlink app to make sure your Dishy has a clear view of the sky. - you have a weak connection to your router
- there’s interference from other Wi-Fi connections
- there are drops in coverage as satellites move around
- you could just have an old faulty dish.
Either way, Starlink satellites all rotate at the exact same time every 15 seconds, so no matter what, you will experience little connection drops and packet loss, which can affect your video streams.
Solve Starlink Connection Issues: Bring an Additional Internet Source into the Mix
The secret to cutting most of slow Starlink related issues is bringing an additional internet connection into the mix. That connection can be another Starlink, 4G, 5G, an old DSL line – whatever is available. The more connections you combine with your Starlink, the more you can fill in any gaps in your connection stability and keep you internet fast and reliable even when your Starlink slows down.
How to combine multiple connections at once? It’s easy – just get Speedify on your computer, mobile device or router!
Speedify is the only app that combines all of your internet connections to keep you online when it matters most. It uses a unique technology called channel bonding to intelligently send and receive your internet traffic over multiple internet sources at the same time. It can even split a single video stream at the packet level, which means it can increase your bandwidth as you add more connections, resulting in smoother, crispier videos.
Plus, if you want to add more cellular connections for even more bandwidth and stability, you won’t need extra adapters. Speedify lets you wirelessly pair as many devices as you want, to share their cellular over the local network. The more devices you pair, the stronger your connection will be.
All you need to do is connect everyone to the same Wi-Fi or hotspot, download Speedify for free on all your devices, and pair phones in the Speedify app to share Cellular. This is what we call Pair & Share.
