I've been using "Starlink for RV" for a couple months now. It's nice in that the alternative is often nothing at all, but it's not nearly as reliable as I'd like. I'm constantly battling trees, because it wants to look really low on the horizon. Even when I have full line of sight to all of the sky, it cuts out with some frequency (multiple times per hour) for anywhere from a couple seconds to half a minute. And the speed is heavily throttled on the RV plan (or on the "portable" plan for those who primarily have a fixed address).
Starlink is fantastic in some ways, but I think they've massively oversold it, and I'm not sure they'll ever catch up as they're recruiting people faster than they're adding satellites. I've now used it all around the country, and it seems particularly bad on the US east coast.
I worry that this push to sell to more-lucrative customers at sea is just going to make the service even worse for nobodies like me.
