The website is finally fully up and ready and I wanted to make a quick informative post. Today’s topic is SpaceX’s Starlink internet service. The benefits, features, and how easy it is to get started, as well as options that we can provide during installation.
The standard Starlink kit features a flat dish antenna that is square shaped. It is usually mounted on a level pole or mast and sits at an angle. It can also be set up on its included kickstand for a quick and easy setup. This is great for temporary or portable solutions (like RVs & camping), however for a home, you definitely want a more permanent option.
We can mount Starlink a number of ways (as long as the area has clear skies), and chances are, we can hide them: “Out of sight out of mind”, and run the cable cleanly into your home to the provided modem and integrate into your home network.
Starlink also comes with an app to help you keep track of your network and ensure your service remains active. For example, in the dead of winter you can trigger the dish to automatically melt snow from itself. Also the speed and latency is very good for rural internet. Topping out at 200Mbps or more for download speeds.
All in all? If it is in your budget, definitely opt in for Starlink internet depending on your local providers. If you can get cable or fiber at your home, continue to do that as it is ultimately still the better option. In the meantime though, you can use Starlink to level up your home internet experience.
