Speedify × School Campuses
Campus internet that doesn't fail during tests, classes, or broadcasts.
The Problem
A standardised test session is the worst time to find out the ISP is down.
Schools run online assessments, video-based instruction, and cloud-based learning platforms on a single ISP line. When that line goes down during a testing window, every student mid-test loses their connection. Testing platforms log incomplete submissions. Results are disputed. Remediation is expensive.
Rural and suburban schools face additional constraints. Fibre availability is limited. Cellular coverage from a single carrier may be marginal. Starlink reaches rural campuses, but a single Starlink dish experiences periodic handoff gaps from satellite transitions that affect real-time applications.
Campus events that include live streaming — sports broadcasts, graduation ceremonies, school board meetings — require sustained upload bandwidth. A single broadband line shared across the campus network delivers unpredictable upload throughput when hundreds of devices compete for bandwidth simultaneously.
The Solution
A bonded campus uplink. Online assessments, classes, and broadcasts stay connected.
- Active online assessment sessions continue without interruption during ISP failures. Students do not lose progress.
- Speedify's streaming mode prioritises video stream traffic for campus broadcasts automatically.
- For rural campuses with limited ISP options, Speedify bonds Starlink with 4G/5G cellular to deliver a resilient uplink without fixed-line broadband.
- Speedify Teams allows district IT administrators to manage all campus deployments centrally — connection priorities, data limits, and connectivity monitoring across all sites.
Scenarios
Built for every kind of school and campuses operation.
01 / Online assessments and testing
Testing sessions that run to completion regardless of ISP status.
Speedify bonds the campus broadband with 4G/5G cellular backup and/or Starlink satellite, both active simultaneously. If the primary ISP line drops during a testing window, Speedify shifts all traffic to cellular and satellite backup paths in milliseconds. Active test sessions continue. No student loses their progress to an infrastructure failure.
02 / Classroom and remote learning
Uninterrupted classroom connectivity for in-person and hybrid sessions.
03 / Campus event broadcasting
Campus events streamed live without buffering or drops.
04 / District-wide and multi-campus management
One IT team manages connectivity across every campus.
Stack
Speedify works under the learning and administrative platforms schools already use.
The Solution
Two ways to run Speedify on a school campus.
Network level: campus router
Install Speedify on a compatible OpenWrt router at the campus network edge. Every device on the campus network benefits from bonded internet connectivity automatically.
- Supported OpenWrt routers: With a Speedify for Routers license.
- Powered by Speedify routers: Speedify is preinstalled and ready to configure.
Device level - Speedify app runs on device
Teachers and staff can run Speedify on a laptop or phone to bond campus Wi-Fi with 4G/5G cellular. This is useful as a fallback during campus network issues or for staff working off-site.
Visibility
Speedify shows IT administrators the status of every link, in real time.
The Speedify dashboard surfaces the health of all bonded connections - primary fibre, 4G/5G cellular, and Starlink - updated continuously. During a testing window, IT staff can see if a path is degrading before students are affected. If Starlink is part of the campus uplink, Speedify integrates directly with the dish telemetry: obstruction events, signal degradation, and hardware faults appear on the dashboard within 15 seconds of detection, independently per dish. F
or rural campuses managing Starlink as the primary connection, this means IT has advance warning of link issues before they affect assessment sessions or classroom video.
