That is pretty good, to be honest. Any experiences with videoconferences over Starlink?
I wonder if I can just build a house in the middle of nowhere, with some solar panels + battery (but with trash service and water access) and move there.
- walrus01 6y agoI think you almost certainly could. I've had remote access to another beta terminal since mid november, and my own since late January. There are very brief 5-10 second periods of no ping answers to the default gateway which cumulatively add up to about 0.50% packet loss over a 4 hour period. It's been getting progressively better as more satellites are launched and the make-before-break handovers are seamless. You do want to ensure you have no tree obstructions and a clear view of the sky in many directions - some people have needed to put the antenna on a 10' tall mast mount.
