Use cases

Use Speedify to build a reliable internet access with seamless failover, lossless and aggregated single-flow speeds by bonding two or more connections, preferably a combination of wired and wireless with baseline ISP plans as an affordable solution. e.g rural areas, developing countries...
Run a VPN over Speedify to bypass captcha/IP-blocking on public servers or other uses.
Cover all connected devices in a home network when it's not possible or practical to share a WAN per each device running Speedify such as IoT and security systems.
Use Engarde as self-hosting alternative to Speedify's Redundant mode (lossless by duplicating traffic across WANs - no aggregation)
Use TinyFEC VPN for fixing a lossy unusable internet connection using forward-error-correction at a speed cost (single WAN - self-hosting)
