Re: Official Starlink/SpaceX INTERNET Thread

redmanjp wrote:^ So can you pause Starlink service when u dont need it and avoid having to pay except for when the fiber is down?
Possible. But I prefer it to be active, so fail over is automatic.
It's kinda nice not to have some calling at midnight via a Sat phone to say the network is down.

Re: Official Starlink/SpaceX INTERNET Thread

Thank you gentlemen. Feedback is very much appreciated. Is this worth it for internet connectivity at $365/month? No 2 year plan / slave captivity like Amplia. Does anyone have Starlink? Does it work okay? Seeing lots of bad reviews as place get overcast signal drops... Best case scenario 200meg do...

Re: Official Starlink/SpaceX INTERNET Thread

I was told Scotiabank CC was accepted. Maybe its more a bank issue than a Trinidad/Starlink issue. Has anyone had issues paying this month's subscription? Received several failed attempts.

Re: Driving in the USA

Sixt is a good option.
Rented a Rav 4 with them through Expedia and got a free upgrade to a pathfinder.
BTW it drinks gas like juice, 2.5 days in and it's almost half tank.

The 200 usd hold seems to be norm for years, so budget accordingly.

Re: Official Starlink/SpaceX INTERNET Thread

Ok from what I reading, the Starlink network works in Cell areas. Each cell is 15 miles (24km) radius. Outside a cell, the base unit won't connect with the uplink sats because they want to keep a consistent service for the number of users per satellite area. If more users are subscribed to a cell, ...

I noticed that on my last two orders which is awesome.

Also noticed that there are no duties and vat on cell phones.
So with no US tax, I ordered a prime day discounted phone.

Re: Flow Internet Thread

You guys need to manually change your dns in the router. You can start with google dns: 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 Reliable and good pings with Trinidad Made the DNS change about a week now and service from my phone seems to be better. It was easy from the linksys app... Screenshot_20220313-212558_Linksys...
