Speedify Streaming Prioritization Overview
This article explains how Speedify's Streaming Prioritization feature works and how you can add custom streaming destinations to make sure your most important internet traffic gets priority treatment across your bonded connections.
How Speedify Streaming Prioritization Works
Speedify already includes the most common streaming destinations, such as Twitch and YouTube, and prioritizes their internet traffic automatically when you're using Enhanced Streaming mode.
For any streaming destination not covered by default, you can add it manually through the Streaming Prioritization settings. This lets you specify which URLs, domains, IP addresses, and ports should receive priority treatment across your bonded internet connections.
What You Can Add
You add streaming destinations by making a group. In each group you can add any mix of three things:
- Ports: a TCP or UDP port. Common streaming ports are 1935 (RTMP) and 1936 (RTMPS).
- IP addresses: the address of a streaming server you want to prioritize.
- Domain names: a streaming website or URL. You can paste a full RTMP link like rtmp://a.rtmp.youtube.com/live2 and Speedify pulls out the domain for you.
Everything in a group has to match for traffic to get priority. If you just want to prioritize a website on any port, add only the domain and leave the other boxes empty.
Let's Get Started
Step 1
Open Speedify and go to Settings.
Step 2
Under Session Settings, select Streaming Prioritization.
Step 3
Make a group and add your streaming destination - a port, an IP address, a domain, or a mix. If you paste a full RTMP link, Speedify pulls out the domain for you. Remember that everything in the group has to match. Once you save, matching traffic gets priority across your connections.
