Thanks for posting. Looks like it's getting better over time, but not quite the latency and upload speeds that I need on a consistent basis. Hopefully will be better in a couple of months. You're probably within about 45 minutes from us, so this channel and the tests that you do are invaluable.
Thanks for the videos. I’m in SE Georgia near the Florida line. I too have Best Effort, and I do have good and bad days. I mainly stream and on live sports it sucks.
I’ve noticed that too about live sports. I think because when watching any streaming services that aren’t live, it downloads 30 seconds ahead. With live sports it doesn’t have any video it can preemptively download. It has been getting better overall, but there’s still buffering. I have videos where I download big games and you can see the spikes in speed as satellites come in and out of my range.
Thanks. I’m in west Georgia by along I20 and my ATT is kinda ok but it’s ATT 🤮. The max speed I can get is 25mb down and about 3 up. I have the option of going best effort but been waiting for full service. Full service should be here by the end of the year. I want better speed and also support companies that are expanding services instead of relying on their monopoly and churching me $75/month for 25mbps while charging others the same price for hundreds of MBPS. Makes no sense
I had enough of AT&T here. $70 per month for 6Mbps connection. I live between Carrollton and Rockmart. Since this video I’ve gotten upgraded to full service StarLink and it’s much better!
My internet was 1.5 Mbps here in the mountains of VA. I got Starlink last March. There is no way I would ever go back to Brightspeed internet!! I also play Mw2. Starlink has never had a major issue. With my other internet, I would still be downloading it!!!
I watch plenty of these StarLink videos so I hear people complaining about lag in games, but I also have been playing shooters in clans for years and I remember there’s always people that complain about lag because they’re bad at shooters and it’s easier to blame lag than it is admit they’re not good!
That is awesome timing! The peak time speed has gotten better recently. I can almost always stream UHD on 4 devices at the same time with no issues! Good Christmas present!
@@brainhomestead6 both. We homestead as well and assume you do based on your name. I run an appliance repair business and try and upload stuff to my RUclips repair channel, but it's been tough with the DSL. LoL So, it will be a game changer for work I think.
@@GraceAppliance I was looking at your channel the other day and saw your business. The upload speeds keep getting better to the point that this 1080p 20-minute long video took around 12 minutes to upload during late afternoon today. You don’t by chance have a wiring diagram for a KLH Industrial chiller used to cool industrial high-power lasers, do you?
@@GraceAppliance L 14.HL27 is the model number. Someone cut a bunch of wires in it and disappeared the wiring diagram. The German KLH hotline wants €235 to even talk to us. Yes, I’m just starting my homestead, but I’m just working on the fruit trees first. It’s just a hobby for now.
Have had ours for about 3 months now (also best effort). At first it was awful, but I expected that for up to a week. After that it did great for streaming. Gaming on it is not great compared to my hotspot as it's a lot more stable. I will say if it's your only option for you gamers then take it. When I do play on Starlink on and off my ping fluctuates (constantly) between 70-110. Never really spikes although I'm sure it would if I played on it more than 40min here and there. I do use the ethernet adapter for it as well which does help. Average speeds are around 20-30Mbps during the day and at night I've seen it hit around 165Mbps so far
A shame about the hotspot. I really enjoy starlink. It's nice to have multiple ppl being able to stream 1080p at the same time. I'm curious to see what happens if I ever get to 1TB tho
Our Brightspeed DSL has been out for weeks. they have just now got it back on and we went from 3 meg download speeds to barely 1 meg. I have tried cellular internet, off brand cellular and it is so inconsistent. I just placed an order for best effort this morning, I live in central NC. Where is the best place to get the satellite installed?
I have mine on my roof, but it really depends on trees you have and any other obstructions. I’m still really liking StarLink and I’m goin on 9 months having it now.
Now, I’ve had quite a few friends that have, but I never did. I have a weird flavor of gaming I like. Action/Adventure, Horror Shooter, FPS, MMO, but very few RTS. I just now got done doing my walkthrough for Uncharted 4. Going to upload the last 2 chapters of it tonight.

I appreciate it! I’ve just been getting a lot of criticism lately. I know that’s how the internet works, just gets irritating after awhile.
You keep your chin up, you hear me?!

That’s pretty close to what I’m still seeing, so I have no complaints. I don’t have enough signal to use a hotspot.
A shame about the hotspot.

@@tyfighter015 I think it will take another 3 years before we see speeds approaching 1Gbps.
I shoulda said data cap to help clarify haha. Be curious if Starlink decides to throttle the best effort users constantly or only during peak times
