Can I Run Multiple VPNs alongside Speedify?

This article explains what happens when you try to run Speedify alongside another VPN (Virtual Private Network) on the same computer, and how you can work around that limitation to use both.

Why Running Two VPNs at Once Is Problematic

Running two VPNs at the same time on a single computer almost always causes conflicts. Each VPN sets up its own virtual network adapter and tries to route all your internet traffic through itself. When two VPNs compete for that control, the result is typically one or both VPNs failing to connect, dropped internet traffic, or unpredictable routing behavior.

This means you can't reliably run Speedify and another VPN side by side on the same device.

The Workaround: Share Speedify to Another Device

Even though you can't run two VPNs on one machine, there is a way to use Speedify and a second VPN together across two devices. Here's how it works:

1. Run Speedify on one computer (Mac, Windows, or Linux), or even better, on a supported router - and share its bonded internet connection to other devices on your network.
2. On one of those other devices, connect through the shared Speedify connection, then run your second VPN on top of it.

This way, your internet traffic is first routed through Speedify, and then additionally tunneled through the second VPN on the other device.

How to Share Your Speedify Connection

Depending on your operating system, the steps for sharing your Speedify connection will vary. See the relevant guide below for your computer:

• Sharing Speedify on Windows
• Sharing Speedify on Mac
• Sharing Speedify on Linux

The best option would be for you to run Speedify on a router and share it to other devices that way. You can learn more about Speedify for Rotuers here.

Once the connection is shared, connect your second device to it, then run your other VPN on that device as usual.
