OyxgenOS is still one of the best ROMs out there, and while it doesn’t reach the customization levels of MIUI or One UI (it doesn’t claim to either), it does have some pretty cool options. Between them, OnePlus allows us to improve the speed and quality of the WiFi connection by means of a simple trick that we will find in the settings.
Specific, is able to combine WiFi networks with mobile networks intelligently, to improve the connection when the mobile understands that it is necessary. We’ll show you how this option is enabled and what it does exactly.
Dual channel acceleration on your OnePlus
In the WiFi settings of your OnePlus, there is an option where you might not have stopped trying. This is dual channel acceleration, a very cool feature of some Android phones. The course is very visible, but we’ll let you know in case you still don’t know which menu we’re talking about.
- Open your OnePlus settings
- Go to the ‘Wi-Fi and mobile networks’ section
- Click on “Dual channel acceleration”
In this submenu, we are going to find two quite interesting options. The first is “Smart Grid Connection”. If we activate this option, just in case our connection is not good, mobile data and WiFi will be combined. For example, if you are at home with a WiFi connection and it is faulty or very slow, the mobile can combine this connection with the network connection, and vice versa.
The second option is to speed up downloads using this dynamic connection. IF we activate this option, when we are going to download any type of file, the phone will prioritize the fastest connection, to speed up the download speed.
