How will Amazon Leo and Starlink low earth orbit satellite tech work together?
Amazon Leo vs. Starlink: With SpaceX’s Starlink now approaching 10,000 satellites and Amazon aiming for 3,236 satellites in its Amazon Leo (Formerly Project Kuiper) constellation, the future of satellite tech is getting crowded. In this Speedify Tech Talk, we break down the differences in altitude, latency, and reliability between the Amazon & Starlink satellite internet networks and explore whether using satellite tech from both providers together for redundancy will eliminate connection dropouts entirely.
We explain what we’ve learned testing and bonding multiple Starlink dishes with Speedify, bandwidth sharing between satellites, upload vs. download performance, positioning strategies, and bonded Starlink speeds. Plus, how Speedify integrates directly with the Starlink API to improve connection stability.
We look at how satellite switching tech works, and how orbital debris and the Kessler effect could differ with Amazon Leo vs Starlink in space. If you have access to Amazon Leo, we’d love to test it.
Should you have a backup 4G, 5G, Starlink, or cable internet connection?
Yes — every internet connection goes down, including Starlink, which drops for ~34 minutes a day on average. A backup connection from a different provider means one outage never takes you fully offline. The most common options are a 4G/5G cellular hotspot, a cable or DSL line, or a second satellite dish.
4G/5G cellular
Works anywhere. Just a SIM or hotspot — no installation needed.
Learn more →Cable / DSL
Best for fixed locations. Different network, so outages rarely overlap.
Learn more →Second Starlink
Adds redundancy and throughput for remote sites or heavy usage.
Learn more →Speedify bonds any two connections into one — automatic failover, more speed, no dropped calls.
