Is there yearly plan?

@devopsbase 2 ай бұрын

I have had starlink for almost a year. I use about 2TB+ per month and this is the only ISP that has true unlimited internet. When it starts raining heavily, the dish adjusts to the nearest satellite and I get access in less than 10mins. Initially I got speed around 200MBPS but currently I get 100MBPS+. It has high lantency/ping though if you are a gamer depending on your location. In terms of my overall experience, I pay for starlink first and I use mtn 5g as backup.

For those living in rural areas that don't have access to either fast cable broadband or fiber broadband. Using a service like Starlink could very well be the only choice if they want internet access at a decent speed. But the monthly cost for the service will be more than your typical home broadband over cable or fiber.

@jlamofficial2427 3 ай бұрын

We live in rural areas. We have fiber optic internet but it's 32 dollars a month. And it's maximum speed is 30mbps.. but it shuts down when there is a power interruption 😊

@lamelouis 9 ай бұрын

it's not 5G and 4G, it's 5Ghz and 2.4Ghz wifi signals. Different frequencies and range. For Wifi, 5Ghz is better but covers only a small area and doesn't so well when there's a wall. The 2.4Ghz is the common option everywhere and covers a wider range/area.

I ve had mine for over a year, it will defrade when its raining, those are the times i switch to my airtel or mtn 5g but even at that the 5g degrades a but to for the rains. There was a period of congestion but it later improved. Residential stabdard is the best for Nigeria at the price but those who need more can upgrade to the priority.

@dustybunny66 7 ай бұрын

Where I live at, we’re are considered the end of the line for every service provider and cell reception can be ok with only 10mbps and there 2-3 times a week where even that drops off to nothing. One compnay has been saying they’ll be upgrading to fiber in the next few weeks for the past two years. We’re tired of not having a good interent connection. We have family who work remote and the internet is basically their lifeline.

@FrequentVirtue 10 ай бұрын

Weather doesn't effect my Starlink at all. I live in the rainiest state of the United States. When the rain is falling I have internet always. Depending on your location depends on what ground stations starlink is using. In the future satellites are all going to be equipped with technology to speak satellite to satellite. It will get much better in the future. Give it time and your speed should increase.
