Just got Starlink.

In laws just got starlink. They had satellite internet through Dishnetwork, I think. We aren’t scheduled to get fiber at our house until at least 2025. If it works out for the in laws we might getting star link to so my wife can work from home more.
 
Night and day difference. Hughs was useless.
I'm borrowing the pie shop link to double check my order and use the cell service.
I'm getting a Sat. Phone next, for back up.
 
Well we cut Elon's cordless cord. Fiber was ran in our county and it's faster & cheaper.

Starlink started throttling their data and they've increased their price 20% in just 2 years. Love the product but the management is turning into just another janky Internet company. It's a great service for those who are underserved for sure though.

6 months later and we're back to Elon's rocket train of night sky pollution.

The company that took $5 million in taxpayer dollars to perform "last mile" install of the fiber network has subbed out all work to what could generously be described as gypsy subcontractors. We've had multiple line breaks over the last few weeks, and this week we went down all day for 2 days. As someone running a small business from home, that's not acceptable.

When the fiber network is finally free from the crooks our county gave the funds too, we'll likely go back to fiber. But for now, 2nd Cousin twice removed Elon gets our filthy cash yet again.
