Before Bonding Internet Connections with Speedify
If your device or network requires extra configuration before going online, such as running dialer software for mobile broadband networks, or logging into a captive portal on a hotel or airport Wi-Fi network, you'll need to complete those steps before Speedify can use that connection.
