Speedify’s Bonding Alignment in the Starlink Control Center Aims Each Starlink Dish to Complement the Others
Aligning a single Starlink dish points one antenna at the best available sky. Aiming two Starlink dishes both at that same sky means both dishes see the same satellites and the same obstructions, so the second Starlink dish adds little. Speedify is an app that helps you use all of your internet connections at the same time – including two or more Starlink dishes – for faster uploads and downloads and a more reliable internet connection. Speedify also shows where each Starlink dish points. This guide explains how to aim two Starlink dishes at different parts of the sky so you get faster uploads and downloads from your two Starlinks.
Starlink disconnects all the time for ALL Starlink users. The Speedify Starlink Index report found that Starlink connections are down for an average of ~33 min per day. Plus, all Starlink dishes experience small drops and packet loss every 15 seconds, when the moving Starlink satellites hand off the connection to the next satellite overhead.
The best way to fix Starlink's connection drops is to combine your Starlink connection with another internet connection, such as 4G/5G cellular, cable, fiber, DSL, or another Starlink connection. Speedify makes this possible with channel bonding.

Speedify’s built-in Starlink Control Center gives you real-time visibility into your dish’s health — without opening a separate app.
What Speedify’s Starlink Bonding Alignment Changes
- Per-dish targets, not one shared target. With Bonding Alignment on, the Alignment Wizard gives each dish its own complementary heading instead of repeating the single-dish orientation.
- Different sky per dish. The targets are calculated so the dishes cover separate regions of sky.
- No effect on a single dish. Bonding Alignment only does something when you have two or more dishes connected.
Turn it on under the Alignment section, then open each dish’s Alignment Wizard to aim to its new target.
Why Starlink Complementary Aiming Is Faster
Two dishes on the same sky connect to overlapping satellites, so a single obstruction or handoff hits both at once and the second dish adds little. Two dishes on different sky connect to different satellites, which gives Speedify two more-independent connections to combine.
Starlink itself notes that multiple dishes are worth running where one can’t cover the full field of view, and Bonding Alignment makes sure your two dishes actually divide that field rather than fight over it.
How Internet Speed and Reliability Is Improved by Speedify’s Starlink Bonding Alignment
Once the dishes are aimed apart, Speedify’s channel bonding technology distributes your traffic across both at the packet level, delivering combined upload and download capacity and instant failover. Independent dishes are less likely to drop at the same moment, so the bonded connection holds up through obstructions and handoffs that would interrupt either dish on its own.
This is the same packet-level approach Speedify uses across Wi-Fi, 4G/5G cellular, Ethernet, Starlink and satellite.
Who Benefits from Speedify’s Starlink Bonding Alignment
- Maritime, broadcast, and mobile operations. Anywhere two dishes share a roof or deck and need to pull their weight independently.
- Remote sites with partial sky. Splitting two dishes across the open sky that exists beats stacking both on the same gap.
- Anyone bonding two dishes for redundancy. Complementary aiming is what turns a backup dish into a genuine second path.
Speedify and Starlink: Aim to Complement, Then Bond
Bonding Alignment makes sure your Starlink dishes cover different sky. Speedify’s channel bonding technology then combines them into one connection that’s faster and harder to knock offline than either dish alone.
