In my experience, Starlink isn't suitable for many uses right now without some kind of wan bonding(speedify, speedfusion, etc). I currently have two cellular modems + Starlink bonded with some routing rules forcing connections(streaming) directly to Starlink. Since I installed in early March, it has improved significantly and I will probably switch the default routing rules to use Starlink and only use the bonded connection for ssh and similar.
Overall, I am very pleased and looking forward to the continued improvements.

- walrus01 6y agoThis depends on your current latitude and obstructions - my starlink terminal above 49N is averaging 0.22% packet loss (1/5th of 1%) to stuff in a telecom facility in downtown Seattle. Its overall packet loss over a multi day period is actually better, and jitter is lower, than on a docsis3 cable connection at the same place. The simultaneous density of satellites and gaps, or lack of gaps at your location will have a big impact on the terminal's availability and packet loss to gateway at the other side of the ground-to-space-to-ground link.
