    Thanks to your excellent videos and the price reduction for my state we decided to go for it. Wow, Starlink is amazing. Super easy to set up once we found the tiny tiny printed kit and serial numbers on the box.😊Bought from Home Depot and now need order a pipe adapter.

    I purchased what appeared to be the updated pipe adapter from Best Buy but received the original one. I contacted Starlink support to inquire about an updated pipe adapter and they replied that Starlink has no plan to update the standard pipe adapter for the 3rd generation dish. I returned the standard pipe adapter to Best Buy and you can now see in the reviews that others have purchased from Best Buy only to receive the old adapter. I'm not sure what the pictures suggest on the Best Buy and Home Depot websites but they don't seem to accurately reflect what is available at this time.

      Same thing happened to me with Best Buy, and the picture of the mount on Starlinks site is still the old shallow pole mount version. I’m returning the mount to Best Buy and hopefully will be able to order the newer version, but I’m not even sure that it exists at this point.

      Dang, thanks for the heads up. Mine was delivered but I can’t check it due to being out of town. Maybe Best Buy accidentally changed the product image before it was available? Either way, this is a Starlink rendering, so it’s a confirmation that a new one is coming at some point.

    • @StarlinkHardware
      @StarlinkHardware  2 місяці тому +2

      It’s not necessary for in-motion applications. The Mobility Mount puts the dish at a nearly vertical angle (8 degrees vs 20 normally). The instructions say it should tilt to the front of the vehicle for aerodynamic purposes, but otherwise, it has enough field of view to see most of the sky. Doesn’t matter what direction it points with such a low angle.

    I read an article that stated if you use the workaround and order it from a location where you get the discounted dish when you change your address to a non-regional area they will bill you for the difference. Is that true?

    • @StarlinkHardware
      @StarlinkHardware  10 днів тому

      It depends on which deal you are offered. The newest "Regional Savings" promotion is the one where Starlink will bill you if you change your service address or service plan within the first 6 months. I have a vide on that one explaining everything: ua-cam.com/video/KFZuwIRirhc/v-deo.html
      The previous promotions don't have this issue. For example, the $349 refurbished deal. Anything not labeled with "Regional Savings" won't have this issue.

      I live in the US, so I end up speaking USD for pricing,, rather than Euros, but I know that at the moment they are within 10% or each other, 1.09 Euro to the USD $. For me the roaming cost is, (or at the moment is expected to be should I re-activate) $150 a month for service, and a bit more than that as a one time charge for hardware., That said, I really don't know what rates around the world are.

    So I just bought my Starlink Standard Dish (at Home Depot) for $599.00. My plan is to use it at home when I am here and use it in my RV when I'm traveling. I haven't set it up yet (it's very heavy) but I'm wondering if anybody can give me some advice - should I get the mobility set up? Or just set up the dish when I get to the campground? Will I have to remove it from RV to house roof when I want to use it at home? Sorry if I sound dumb, I really am when it comes to this kind of stuff. Thanks

    • @StarlinkHardware
      @StarlinkHardware  2 місяці тому

      When I use a dish in between my home and RV, I just use the included stand. I.e I do not permanently mount it. That’s what I would suggest to start with. You might need to invest in a roof mount for your house if you have issues with obstructions while it’s on the ground (or table or wherever you temporarily place it).

    • @robgronsky4466

      I find the harbor freight pole and some u-bolts works wonders. The harbor freight pole comes with a pvc tube that can be mounted to a hitch mounted bike rack with a few u-bolts and additional u-bolts can be used to add support to the pole off most home decks. I used the standard pipe mount adapter, titanium drill bit, and a few eye bolts. Fly a flag and have had 0 issues through several storms including in light hail but I tend to fly the pole at about 15 - 20 ft and not the full 25ft. Even at 25ft I think the pole can handle most weather but lowering it just gives a bit more peace of mind. I bought just before the refurbished dish annoucement as well but this dish generation is of good value.

    I asked for the $90 plan and this was my response...... No.... At this time, I show that the discounted service plan price that you are referring to for your Standard Starlink Subscription is no longer offered or available. The monthly service price for Starlink residential plans is increasing in some areas in the United States where there is limited capacity to be at $120/mo. Each service area has a different capacity limit that our satellites can support and is not based on the population of the area. As we launch more satellites into orbit and improve our software, we will continuously re-evaluate our capacity. Starlink may adjust prices over time to reflect market conditions and changes to network capacity.
