      Live in Northern Vermont about 2 miles from Canada which is the 45th parallel. which is where these sats travel for the northern hemisphere. The only options we have are broadband through Consolidated communications that anyone that lives from Vermont to Maine can tell that they suck ass. We just had 4 days with a phone that if you didn't answer it as it first rings it wouldn't work. Internet that didn't work at all and is only 25mb/s when it does. The other option is satellite internet which Hughes has a hard cap on usage. What does it work for and what does it not work for? My parents are also very interested in it, they pay the bill normally. They are really getting to the point that they have had it with Consolidated Communications.

    I had Viasat as well, the biggest plan they offered in my area at the time was 150GB, for like$150 a month. Ran out of data like a week or two in every month and our speeds never went over 15mbps download and .75 mbps upload (under half of what they should have been), which they said the poor speeds were because of "bad location" ... it is like well I can't just up and move my house. Just got the notification that my Starlink shipped, I am so excited to have internet at my house again. I gave up the Viasat like 3 years ago because it just wasn't worth it, haven't had home internet since. Now my Niece's school is mad because "They have to have a stable internet connection at home. It is critical to our learning system, it is how they get their homework and send in assignments." I told her "We live in rural Michigan, half these kids don't even have the option to get internet at their house. We used paper when I was in school, it was great, you could take it anywhere, didn't have to charge it or connect it to internet. Also if it is so critical to you doing your job are you gonna pay the bill?" ... Apparently I was being unreasonable... she hasn't called me since. I thought they were fair points.

    Thanks for doing install video on this, I am on the waiting list for my Starlink Sat as well. I currently have Viasat with an ORBI mesh booster that pulls 180ish mbps and a 3-5mb upload speed. The problem with Viasat is their package speed options and monthly price. I have the max 300GB per mo package @ $300mo and if you chew up the 300GBs before the end of the month, you have to buy more or the net speed goes to what you showed with your Century-link service. So to keep the wife’s real estate business going, a teenager and 2x toddlers with IPads on WiFi all the time, my Monthyl Viasat bill is always around $400mo due to always having to buy more GBs.

Thanks guys for the review I’ve been watching Starlink for a long time. I live in Phoenix Arizona and I have cable Internet and get about 4 to 500 Mb a second so I don’t have any need for Starlink. However I only have two choices here one is what I have the other is much worse called CenturyLink. So I’ve been excited for Starlink to come about as a competitor.

    That is a beautiful thing. It is hard to express how big a deal Starlink is for those that really need it. A good way to capture it though, is that right now it is taking forever for the internet to open comments on this video. Congrats for getting your own unit and getting that great leap in speed.

All is good, (but), I have already had one data breech issue that has lead me to cancel one of my credit cards. I don't no how or why it happened or if it was related to the Starlink system, but it happened. I had ordered the Ethernet adapter from Starlink,(to go fully hard wired. No wifi), but they were back ordered. Just a heads up to always be secure out there. Happy surfing 😉
