Has a root cause been identified? Is it a growing pain like coverage gaps / satellite scaling issues or a fundamental issue?

Has a root cause been identified? Is it a growing pain like coverage gaps / satellite scaling issues or a fundamental issue?
- falcolas 6y agoNot yet, no. A sister comment indicates that it's expected (news to me and my colleague) until more satellites are in place.
- cma 6y agoDoes the colleague have full open sky, or some obstructions?
- URSpider94 6y agoNot positive, but I believe that current base stations point at one satellite at a time, and will lose connection for a brief moment while they transition from one satellite to another. In the future, ground stations will be able to lock on multiple satellites at a time, in order to bond channels for higher bandwidth, and also to do handoffs so there's no drop in connectivity.
