Sorry to rain on your parade. But Starlink will never be competing with internet in urban areas. The economics for simply laying a few miles of fiber are too good (if the fiber isn't even already there). More so the satellite density needed to serve an entire city is many more than even SpaceX is proposing. Starlink is for long distance backhaul and for rural/underserved areas.
- um_ya 7y agoIf starlink allows roaming high speed internet, then I would be willing to pay for that instead of a fiber line.
- Rebelgecko 7y agoI think the speed is going to have a tight inverse correlation with the population density of your location.
