[CS-FSLUG] Raspberry Pi or Pine64 with Speedify

[Eduardo Sanchez]

Absolutely no idea but I hope you're successful with the Pine64.

This shows my age, but coming from the age of 8-bit processors in
micro-computers and 32-bit processing power on mainframes, it almost
bothers me to see such humongous processing power available in embedded
devices which are casually thrown and discarded.

Blessings,


Eduardo

>>I’ve been toying around with Speedify, which is a VPN whose primary
>>purpose isn’t so much the VPN itself, but an intelligent network
>>bonding system to keep the internet up — something that has been
>>relevant for me as of late with my Charter Spectrum losing packets
>>(or going down entirely) at inopportune times. I’ve been using
>>Speedify this past week to fall over to my iPhone hotspot when the
>>Internet gets bumpy… so far, so good.
>>
>>So, two questions:
>>
>>1.) I’m wondering if there might be a simple way to ditch the service
>>and simply use a Raspberry Pi (or, better yet, a Pine64, since I have
>>one of those collecting dust) to do something similar, grabbing
>>Internet from my cell phone if the main line goes down or starts to
>>lose packets). I’m sure it is possible, although one intriguing
>>aspect of Speedify is the simplicity, which is nice, because the last
>>thing you want on a project like this is for it to go down because of
>>some messed up setting...
>>
>>2.) Speedify says it supports running on a Raspberry Pi — before I
>>purchase another one for that purpose, has anyone tried running it on
>>one?
>>
