You'd be surprised reading Twitter. There's a large group of people that seem to hate this site (usually calling it the orange site), and I'm not sure why. Every site will have people you disagree with, but unlike sites like

I run multiple versions all the time. They install in completely independent locations. What's the issue you're having?

That's... Not really a fair comparison. Nvidia didn't introduce their Enterprise line until 2010, so you're comparing a gaming card to a professional card. Nvidia stock has certainly gone up many multiples of what a geforce c

Isn't enterprise the self-hosted solution?

by shaklee3 6y ago
It will certainly not be 40Mbps upload. That's very difficult to achieve with satellite, especially for the dish they have.

> The video you linked talks about using normal user terminals as relays. A couple of those won't be full bandwidth, but your mid-ocean service wouldn't need to be full bandwidth. If you see my comment and others, using user te

I'm talking about ships used for relay. Ships used for just internet over the water won't be possible if there are no gateways (other ships with relays) over the water. Those terminals do have to be expensive, just like the gatewa

Sure, ships can have more expensive antennas. But you need a lot of those ships out there and the antennas are extremely expensive. I'm not sure what you are arguing about the simulation. Are you saying it's inaccurate and there&#

I've never heard of people quoting their ping time based on the closed DC to them. Let's say you're playing a game (fortnite, for example). You have a ping time based on where that server is. It may be across the country from

I didn't downvote you, but the size of the beam is heavily dictated by the elevation they're willing to work with, and the wider the elevation, the more expensive the antenna. So give that they need to decrease the size of the bea

And therein lies the problem. Fiber latency from coast to coast in CONUS is 20ms in the very best case. But that will never happen, and you instead of many hops, where the latency is typically upwards of 40ms just for the fiber. Elon is say

I was referring to what appears to be the gateways. If the smaller one is the CPE I'd be curious to see where the motor is, and how it will be prevented from weathering/failing.
735.
by shaklee3 6y ago
Right, sorry. I was referring to the large white ball. Ka/Ku radomes are not cheap. The only information on antenna size is from Elon saying it's the size of a pizza box. Those look too small to be the CPE (imo).

I think you're going to need to explain how a satellite at 550km in the sky with a low elevation covers the US without any hops. That's contradictory to what every technical piece of information about Starlink says. You have to ho

SpaceX phased antennas are both phased arrays and mechanical steering since they are lowering cost by decreasing the scan angle of the phased array.

by shaklee3 6y ago
I'm referring to the satellite to gateway hops. There absolutely are many of those just to cross the continental US. The satellite altitude is such that it only covers a small part of CONUS before it has to have off to another satellit

This is demonstrably false. Look at the YouTube video posted this week that simulated delayed. The best delay, with only hops between satellites, was 40ms or so. That didn't account for any of the higher later delays or transport netwo

by shaklee3 6y ago
Not the altitude, but the elevation. What is the angle from the user terminal?

by shaklee3 6y ago
They could be phased array under a radome.
742.
by shaklee3 6y ago
Those radomes are extremely expensive. If that's the user terminal then it's going to be quite a bit more expensive than any consumer service.

How is this biased: "No evidence a working starlink network can offer lower latency, or lower prices, than terrestial"? The FCC themselves don't believe the 100ms, and the price nobody in the industry thinks will be affordabl

by shaklee3 6y ago
Their latencies are not at least as competitive as anything if they're not proven. With low orbits, they need multiple hops to get to most destinations, along with queuing and network delays. Propagation delay may not even be the domin

by shaklee3 6y ago
I think your math is off. What elevation are you using?
747.
by shaklee3 6y ago
Source? There is no indication whatsoever that the service will be cheap enough to be for the consumer market. In fact, all serious cost analyses show it's not.
748.
by shaklee3 6y ago
What dimension? It's not competitive for anyone who can get high-speed internet right now, and it's not clear if it will complete with traditional satellite in cost.

Autopilot isn't used in the same conditions.

This is the first I've heard someone speculate about that. I didn't think they were doing 20G with a single antenna, but that they were adding all spectrum together that it's capable of processing (even if it doesn't get
