Hi guys,
I’m using the standalone server/player setup.
So far, it works as expected but I wonder if it is possible to have the mobile data connection (LTE) also
working when connected to the Squeezebox AP.
Hopefully you understand what I’m talking about.
If the mobile phone is connected to the AP it will not use the mobile data connection.
This is, for sure, a settings issue (hopefully) within the smart phone, but I guess you guys should
understand my problem at best and have some suggestions or maybe a solution.
Otherwise, I don’t even know what terms to use in my search for this problem.

Thanks in advance!

Hi FeinRib,

I’m not entirely sure if this is what you mean but if it’s about using mobile data on your phone while connected to the m2p AP, you should be able to find different guides on that by searching use mobile data while connected to wifi. Here’s one for Android

Hi Heiner,
I tried that already. But it’s not doing what I want.
That setting is only speeding up switching from WiFi to mobile data.
It will not use both connections in parallel.

I guess this is the feature I’m looking for. Unfortunately I don’t have a Samsung but as it’s all Android, it should be possible with any smartphone!?

Hi FeinRib,

You can look up the exact version of your Android and see if there’s a specific HowTo on that.

The one I linked is for Marshmellow which is a bit older.
