I’ve had StarLink installed for a week now. We live on a floating house in Oregon, and up until now, DSL was our only viable option. That’s been hard given my wife and I both work remotely and do a lot of video calls.
Our impression: it’s fast, latency is awesome, but “downtime” is common and disruptive. Having the internet go offline at random intervals through the day, often for 10+ minutes, is a thing. We expected some of this given it’s currently in beta and it should get better as they make improvements and add satellites.
