Use Speedify as Your Starlink Companion
A “Starlink software install pending” alert means your Starlink dish has downloaded a new update and will reboot to install it, briefly cutting off your internet.
Speedify is an app that combines Starlink with a second connection, like a phone hotspot or cellular data, at the same time. When Starlink restarts to install the pending update, Speedify keeps you online on the other connection so your calls and streams do not drop.
Monitor your Starlink dish performance inside Speedify.
Speedify’s built-in Starlink Control Center gives you real-time visibility into your dish’s health — without opening a separate app.
Why Starlink Needs to Update Its Software
As with any modern device, Starlink also gets regular software updates which fix all kinds of bugs and errors while also improving the performance. These software updates are usually being release every 2 weeks and are intended not to disrupt the experience of the user. The Starlink will automatically reboot to apply software updates periodically at 3:00 AM local time +/- 30 minutes.
Why You Need Speedify: It Combines Starlink with a Secondary Connection – 4G LTE / 5G Cellular, DSL, etc. – for Uninterrupted Internet
When the Starlink has a software install pending, you need to update it. This affects your video calls, live streaming or online gaming sessions, as the dish will restart when applying the update. That’s why it’s important to use Speedify as a failover solution for your Internet.
Speedify’s channel bonding technology allows you to combine your Starlink connection with any other available internet source:
- Cellular data (4G/5G)
- DSL or cable internet backup
- Public Wi-Fi within range
- Mobile hotspots
Once Starlink is restarting to apply the software updates pending, your Starlink internet is no longer working. Speedify instantly shifts your traffic to your secondary connection, ensuring you stay connected without interruption or lag.
