Bit late on the news towards starlink but it is now deploying

(1/11) > >>

yvesjv:
Read on a geek forum that some guy had enough of his sh#t service with Vodavone/NBN and cancelled it when his starlink order arrived.
His reported download speed is now just over 130 mbps download.
I'd be very interested on the upload but nothing on that yet.

Others are reporting 80 to 100 when it is raining... goodbye NBN?
I think not yet if you are close to a city and have a fibre connection to the home combined with a reliable ISP.

But if you are remote, looking at you Arnhem land and similar.
This becomes a viable option.
Also saw this on their website "Our network is limited in the number of users we can accommodate in any one area, based on the design of our low Earth orbit satellite constellation".
First in, bess dressed!

Meanwhile, looks like I'll have to wait for awhile before I decide to relocate to Berry Springs or further out.

A better map for you: https://satellitemap.space/

Vic, Tas, ACT all full coverage. NSW nearly, the rest is mainly just the key city and population areas at present. Remote Australia (North SA, NT, North WA, West Qld) is still zero coverage.

VALKIE:
Dont know what you lot are complaining about.
On a good day I can get a massive 20mbps
but most days I struggle with 10mbps

And on a bad day, if its running, I can get 3 to 5 mbps

Good old telstra
