I pay 230 bucks a month for vissat 100 mb down 2 up with high ping and it's throttled after 150 GB which we hit on week 1 every month! I can't wait for starlink to get here this week! Seems like a good deal to me! It's all about what's available where you are.

Michael Illingby6 dögum síðan

when using the FAILOVER like you did, does it work the same if the modem just loses outbound connection tot he internet as opposed to actually unplugging it? I tried this before on my USG Pro 4 and when my LTE back up never engaged when our Fibre went down. Can you test this? I guess what i'm saying if it's not clear is that the is a DIFFERENCE between a service no longer responding or having bad uplink VS you unplugging a cable causing the LINK to go down. Please, I thank you on advance.

Hi Chris, can you do a video on how to set-up Unifi USG3 connected direct to Starlink "Dishy"so I can still see the Starlink stats

n/a n/a15 dögum síðan

I would like to see an option where business owners who need it for only a few days because of natural disaters could preload some money into the service, that way they're not paying an active service but are able to use it like an emergency generator for things like payment processing. What happens if there's a snow storm, there's power outage, and you have 5 customers that need to pay for their fuel at the pump ? With a pre-paid service you could fire up starlink to process those people, and then shut down the pumps until the power comes back online.

Henri16 dögum síðan

@Crosstalk Solutions, just to be clear, if one is connected to the Starlink "dishy" and sets up port forwarding in the USG, it will not work? On the back of that question, does Starlink offer dedicated IPs? (I'm thinking about pointing a domain at the address, then running services behind the USG, type of scenario).

Sam Hickman17 dögum síðan

I am using Starlink as a backup connection too. Much cheaper than the LTE backup options offered by my ISP in Canada. I feel as though it is going to waste as a simple failover, but the NATing is an issue. Is there a way to set up rules to put specific clients through the WAN2 connection?

When it comes to horrible speeds we use a company called Nomad we are lucky if we get 7 mps down. We started out paying 129 a month and after a few months we are paying 149. Before using Nomad we had unlimited leasing and we were paying 139 a month, so thought why not go for the 129. Top of that Nomad has had to replace 2 sim cards that have stopped working. The second just recently. I have to work and with no reliable Internet for the price we are paying and no improvement of speeds, well let us just say can't wait for Starlink. I will pay 99 a month for something that is improving!!!!! Also, we live in an area where we cannot get anything like wired internet connection.

$99, expensive? Nope, not for us poor rural peeps that can only get DSL for $50-70. The $600 up front is the kicker. Without the Starlink router, you wont get metrics or be able to use the mobile app (so I have heard). Have you trie using the AUX port and done a static route??

Chris, apologies if you’ve already answered this. Does using a USG with starlink, when you have an alternative provider as a failover on WAN2 provide any protection against dropouts in a video call for example? I noticed when you unplugged the cable with the persistent ping running there wasn’t really any noticeable drop out of connection. A physical unplug of the cable is a bit different to WAN 1 still being connected but not having any service. Just trying to work out if I need to look at a bonded connection to avoid video call dropouts or whether a USG WAN2 failover would suffice. Thanks very much, Simon.

I'm paying $127 a month to Telus in BC Canada for an LTE Hub that goes on average 0.95 down and 1 up. Starlink is like the light at the end of a tunnel. Telus doesn't give a shit about people living in rural areas. It's like we get that scrap infrastructure that was handed down from city use

As a rural user, $100 a month is great. I've been paying $160 per month for two lines of service, each giving me 3mpbs down 0.5mpbs up. That is the best speed available in my area. But of course, you can't stream more than one video at a time with 3mbps, so I got the second account and wifi router so the kids can stream something while I watch something with the wife. We're looking forward to saving money once we get starlink.

So can you pls tell competition in such an environment for Starlink . with ping 3 - 11 ms. This is the case of all cities and most villages. Also for a place where there is no fiber, there are mobile networks where $5 for 3-4 months which are not with such slow speed like 3Mbps it may be 5 to 10 to 20 Mbps according to reagion.

Awesome information, did not realize that would work. Thank you for covering the price point, 99 bucks for internet in a rural setting? P L E S E take my money I'm happy to give it to you! Right now I'm paying basically that for CRAP satellite internet (hughesnet) with a brutal data cap. 4g has the same cost/data cap issue and still isn't fast. As of this moment in time Starlink is an amazing solution and I cant wait to get mine (I'm on the preorder waiting list) I have the money for the equipment patiently waiting in my bank account to give to them. For a lot of people in the rural or even marginal areas of the country this is a game changer! Hughesnet currently advertises they have "over 1 million subscribers" Meaning there are one million households ready to get Starlink the very second they can.

On the topic of pricing: You say 99$ per month is expensive. Well, I live in a major city in central Germany. And our main tel-co provider (Deutsch Telekom, owner of most of the terrestrial network) has only one option for me. That is 6Mbit/s max Download and 2.4Mbit/s max upload. And yes those are the maximum values, actual speed is lower. And that service would cost me 19.95€ per month and 29.95€ per month after the 10th month. (24 month minimal time, extended by 12 month if not canceled) That is with the "Jung Adults" discount for people under the age of 28. So suddenly Starlink doesn't seem that expensive anymore. (and it doesn't have the worst terms and conditions) But to be fair, I think that those numbers actually might be incorrect as I am currently getting a 25Mbit/s max down, 5Mbit/s max up service from a different provider for about the same cost.
