That's a great review, well done guys.
Thanks Simon ☺️
Love scanning the night sky
How far away can you walk away from the antenna or router before it doesn't work anymore?
Thanks for all the information 🥂
Cheers for the review guys. We’re on our lap too and upload weekly videos! Might have to get this! Subscribed :)
Thank you for sharing. That is an amazing. I have one question. Do we need to have any internet plan to connect with? Or just only StarLink devices. Thanks you Jay
Hey jay we haven’t paid for the first month yet as we think it’s free first month as we haven’t needed to pay yet but after that it’s around $170 a month which you can pay as you need it so if you are remote one month you can choose to pay and the next month you can decide to freeze it hope that helps
I have had my Starlink since April used it from country Victoria to Brunette Downes in the Northern Territory and places in between for 4 months great but I never seen speed as low as that you had my lowest was 97 to 264 the highest pricy but as a 76 year old to have internet access and phone service it’s cheap and with the roam service you only have to pay month by month I am home now probably want use it till next April I was lucky I got mine in March on special for $299
Check your spelling and sentence structure. Hard to understand.
Awesome review! What plan do you use? The roam plan? keen to get one
Thanks for the comment we use the roam plan
get a router adapter cable get a router you can set mtu on set it 1492 and speed and singnal will get huge boost

Peak: 100-240V~ 4.5A 50-60Hz
Drifta sell a great canvas storage bag specifically desinged for your starlink dish and all other bits n pieces. It;s not too expensive. I use it myself
Thank you for the suggestion
Can you pause the subscription when you’re not travelling?
Yes you can we have it paused now as we had to come home
How's it go in bad weather rain wind thunder storms etc?
We’ve never left it out in storms but we have in rain and it’s fine it is waterproof
Mbps is megabit per second (not byte)
MBps is megabyte per second.
So 55/8 = 6.875 megabyte per second.
I have a solar system in my remote cabin in Canada. Cabin runs mostly on 12 volt DC but have a 175 watt inverter. Do you think that is sufficient for this application and my laptop? Mostly summer usage so plenty of sunlight for my panels.
So you're telling me, you got better speeds in the outback compared to suburban NBN 😂
Yep, that brilliant 40 billion dollar joke that we were told we need
Hey guys. We are travelling Aus next year and I am working on the road. I can see that STARLINK ROAM is not to be used whilst driving? The STARLINK MOBILITY is $5000.... Are you using this while driving or only when you are stopped? Thanks!
Hi we don’t use it while driving as for us editing doesn’t need internet, we only use it when set up at camp
Was it expensive? I guess you won’t need an Epirb or satellite phone so you’ll save money there
It’s around $170 a month which you can pause at any time it’s the hardware for it that’s a bit pricey at around $600 on sale at the moment
@@ryan.and.kayleighit’s going up to $400 a month to use it in motion
Outcamp adventure gear do a starlink bag for $105
Hi- does your phone use it aswell to make calls or do you still have another provider for that? Thanks
You can use WhatsApp to make phone calls
Or, switch your phone to wifi calling.
Just ordered one... Starlink offer discounted refurbished dishes for a lot less. Reminds me of scenes from Star Wars using Starlink...
You got better speeds than suburban WA. FKN HELL 🙈🤣
I don’t understand why ppl don’t think it will work in remote places. It’s satellite.
