Product Review from Jason Hoffman: • Product Review GL.iNet...
Product Review from Dough Johnson: • Simplify Your Livestre...
Thank you for posting this. I used this router with Speedify installed as you described. I used my mifi hotspot and my daughters iPhone hotspot to get enough upload speeds to livestream in a crowded convention center at a volleyball tournament. Without this setup and using my mifi hotspot on its own, I was unable to keep a good stream. Thank you.
I'm so glad to hear it worked for you. All the best!
I am trying to set up a system whose main internet is a T-Mobile Cellular device that I connect over ethernet. The other two connections will be hotspots (Verizon Orbic & Netgear Nighthawk M6). I then need to send internet to my ATEM Switcher (which has a built-in streaming encoder) via ethernet. Can I do this with the setup you show?
Great Video
Very nice Erik . This could simplify my setup by eliminating the RaspPi which is doing the bonding. Much easier to check the Speedify status when it's on the router as opposed to VNC to the Rpi. A few questions : 1) this FW doesn't work on the Beryl router? 2) Looks like you have all the ports (usb and ethernet) set as the internet WAN. Is there a way to set one or more ports to LAN? I'd like to connect the Mevo via ethernet.
You can adjust. I just plugged my lan into port 1 and it worked.
I haven't tried to install it on the beryl. I'm not certain. Be prepared for it to be bricked.
Great stuff, as usual!
Thank you! Cheers!
I'm not able to tether my iphone as you mentioned. However, I can use speedify on my phone to "pair and share" to the router through a lightning to ethernet adapter. This seems kinda like tethering.
Thanks so much for sharing this info, 10 Monthes after are you still happy with? Any more tips?
Thanks for the video. Can you add multiple iPhones via wifi or would additional iPhones need to be tethered?
I think I'm missing a step somewhere... I can't get my verizon android cell to work as a hotspot. I tried following the same steps as the iPhone, but nothing. Ultimately, I'd like to take advantage of a house wifi at whatever venue I'm at and use my cell phone as a hotspot. If I can also get a second cell phone to work and have 3 connections, that would be perfect. But right now, I can only get my wifi at home to work.
Are you tethering via a usb-c cable or are you using your android as a wifi Hotspot? If tether, make certain you turn on ethernet tethering in your android settings.
@@Erikpaul I tried it both ways. They both show up in the Associated Stations under >Network >Wireless.... When I go back to Speedify, neither show up.
Come over to the smoothwan discord server and it will be easier to troubleshoot. I would like to see a screen shot of your wireless interfaces page.

Can I use my wireguard connected to my home vpn on top of speedify?
Are we able to do it on a slate ax
Can i get back the original flash file for the Router Please any link?
I stream sporting events similar to you. Based on your video, I purchased the Slate AX and running smoothwan with speedify unlimited account. Set up a few test sources with WiFi and Ethernet from a 5G hot spot. I am experiencing much slower speeds then expected. My Wifi on its own is 650Down/24up, and my 5G hot spot Ethernet was 180down/34up. When connected to the Slate ax via Ethernet lan with Speedify running to bond the connections I am only seeing speed tests of about 100down/18up. Should I expect to see closer to my higher speeds. Am I missing a setting in the router that would increase the speeds.
Bonding signal will always have slower download and upload speeds. But, when you stream, cellular companies throttle you, so you won't ever get to use those speeds. Bonding is almost always faster with streaming.
Please help! After “save and apply” at the 8:00mark, it says “Applying configuration changes…” and counts down from 90s. I can’t get past this point. After 90 seconds, it says “Failed to confirm apply within 90s, waiting for rollback…” and just stays there forever. Any thoughts? Been trying to get this work forever…even thought I may have bricked the first router and bought a new one. I’d hate to think I ruined two of them. PLEASE HELP?
Are you connecting to the router via wifi for the setup or via network cable? This is an error I've seen when connected via wifi. Always setup the router using a connected ethernet cable initially, then you can manage it via wifi.
Hi Erik,
I’m disabling the SmoothWAN setup, scanning for my iPhone’s hotspot, and adding it. But it just says “Wireless is not associated” for the status no matter what I try. Is there something I’m missing? Thank you!
Most recent firmware doesn't require you to disable the smoothwan setup. Also, I've found that I need to turn off my iPhone Hotspot and turn it back on everytime the router reboots
Erik, I have 2 hotspots that I want to bond through my axt1800 using Speedify. Is this essentially the steps I want to follow?
Two routers available, flint or slate. These instructions should work for both.
Great video! With this setup can you use a usb hub connected to the usb port on the router to use multiple usb modems or tether multiple phones via usb tethering?
Why yes, you can 😊😊
@@Erikpaul Thanks for the info! I’ve built bonding router using the Slate AX in conjunction with a raspberry pi 4. This will slim down the setup dramatically.
The wifi on the pi is unreliable, so the slate was a huge upgrade for me.
@@Erikpaul I don’t really have any problem with the Wi-Fi on the Pi but I also don’t really use it for streaming. I rely on my Inseego USB800 modems or a hardwire connection.
So this Config basically uses load balancing for the multiple data inputs to provide a higher throughput for your streaming devices, is this right?
Similar, yes. Data is sent out on 2 or 3 different signals with the best signal getting the most data, and then those data are repackaged at the VPN server and then distributed to your streaming service.
Can the GL-iNet GL-MT3000 modify as well ?
No
How don you get to the “SPEEDIFY-UI - Fullscreen” log in page? After viewing the log that shows it was downloaded…I missed the step to get to that page.
Click on overview, that is a drop down menu on the top and far left.
@Erikpaul you might be able to help me with this. The log says speedify is now installed but when I go to the overview screen it says speedify is not setup and there is no login option or anything.
Message me on discord. First, make certain that you have internet supplied and then try to install speedify again (not smoothwan). If that doesn't work, try rebooting and doing it again. Sounds like you didn't get the app installed. Logs will help from the VPN installation page.
Great setup, do you think it would work with the GL-MT1300 Beryl?
I tried and it didn't work. But, that was about 2 months ago.
@@Erikpaul Ok, will order the correct one. Thank you!!
I have a link in the description
@@Erikpaul This is awesome!! Slate AX arrived, Setup and working well. I did have minor issue with Firefox but working fine with Chrome. Tomorrow I will be testing with Nighthawks, I have 3 from different providers.
@@darryncarroll7953 and Erik: I might have missed a step, or misunderstood the functionality - but after installing Smoothwan on my Slate AX, Speedify seems to work - but my router's wifi connections have disappeared. I assume they original configured 5G and 2.4G networks should still be available so that you can connect to the router and make use of the bonded access (using 2 ethernet tethered phones)? Or am I missing it completely?
Have you tried SmoothWAN 0.99.9 HF5?
Not yet, I'm gonna work on that this week, hopefully
any update on the upgrade?
It went ok. Make certain to uncheck "keep settings".
I can’t log in, it tells me I have an invalid username/password
