- hackstack 6y agoThis is mentioned on literally every Starlink thread I read, and the response is always that unlike previous satellite internet offerings, Starlink operates in low earth orbit, drastically reducing the ping time. Do you have more to add?
- yencabulator 6y agoThis ain't your grandpa's Hughes. > latencies or ping rates ranging from 31ms to 94ms That's on par or better than what I can get with either point-to-point wifi to small ISP or LTE.
- toast0 6y ago31ms isn't too bad compared to the 20ms I get on bonded vdsl2.
