To what? Starlink is getting you to a major exchange in two direct shots. When I was testing it in North Dakota I was getting lower latency to Google and Cloudflare through Starlink than I was through local fiber providers (likely due to their long circuitous route to Minneapolis).
- esseph 2y agoSatellite can't handle the density required for one, but yes, network path is huge. Same reason a lot of HFT uses microwave vs fiber paths - fiber paths are following the ROW, the microwave paths are the physically shorter paths. LEO is a niche technology, but not and shouldn't be the default for tons of reasons.
