    For those living in rural areas that don't have access to either fast cable broadband or fiber broadband. Using a service like Starlink could very well be the only choice if they want internet access at a decent speed. But the monthly cost for the service will be more than your typical home broadband over cable or fiber.

    it's not 5G and 4G, it's 5Ghz and 2.4Ghz wifi signals. Different frequencies and range. For Wifi, 5Ghz is better but covers only a small area and doesn't so well when there's a wall. The 2.4Ghz is the common option everywhere and covers a wider range/area.

    Weather doesn't effect my Starlink at all. I live in the rainiest state of the United States. When the rain is falling I have internet always. Depending on your location depends on what ground stations starlink is using. In the future satellites are all going to be equipped with technology to speak satellite to satellite. It will get much better in the future. Give it time and your speed should increase.

    Where I live at, we’re are considered the end of the line for every service provider and cell reception can be ok with only 10mbps and there 2-3 times a week where even that drops off to nothing. One compnay has been saying they’ll be upgrading to fiber in the next few weeks for the past two years. We’re tired of not having a good interent connection. We have family who work remote and the internet is basically their lifeline.

    For goodness sakes, stay away from this company, if possible. If your service goes down, you may be in for the most frustrating, incompetent, ridiculous customer service possible. I will be contacting the Texas attorney general to get my equipment back. Starlink has no right to keep my equipment. I paid $649 for that equipment. It isn't theirs to keep.

    What happened? I know that Costumer Service used to be bad and non existent in some cases, but is that still the case?

    @@kirarakurokawa8747 Oh. You mean like when you rent a modem they wait days before replying? Do your mean when you rent modem, you can't contact them using a phone, or an email, or chat? Do you mean that when you rent a modem it can take nine months to resolve your problem? You mean when you rent a modem you pay $649 it, and when they tell you to ship it back to them, they initially tell you that they aren't going to give you any of the $649 you paid for the equipment? I guess you are right then.
