what happened to the price drop to 90.00 for places where there was lots of availability for areas where there was no waiting list from the 120.00 dollar that i am now paying in Missouri? There is now no waiting list in my area but i am still paying 120.00 a month and as i understand it there are many areas of the USA that are paying 90.00 a month. @jcristina

I have the mini and paying $165 I used it for Overlanding, I really love it because it’s powered by 12v and the service is really great, so having connectivity in the wild or in the middle of nowhere is an added security aside from the steel that you carry.

I am in San Diego and bought the Roam Standard for $249 in October and the Mini for $449 (November). Stoked to get them both on sale. I bought the Standard directly from Starlink but got the Mini from Best Buy. Anyone trying to buy direct from Starlink in SoCal currently is getting waitlisted due to max capacity (like you were saying). Thankful to have added this to my emergency preparations. It wasn't cheap but I look at it as an investment. It'll double as a comms solution for camping/overlanding as well. New sub, thank you for the great content!
Price has not dropped for me yet but I don’t care. My town was hit head on by Hurricane Helene in September. The town was without power and all traditional internet providers were out of service for 9 days. 3 hours after the hurricane, I checked the roof and my Starlink satellite dish was still there. I connected my generator and had internet immediately. Elon Musk is my hero😀
I’ve wanted a Starlink for a couple years now. It’s our Christmas Present to each other this year! We live in a rural area and others have it and love it! We only have Hughes Net to service us and we run out of WiFi after the first week so want/need unlimited minutes! Our grandchildren can use 50 Gigs in one evening playing their games.
I setup a starlink mini for my dad that the owners of where he works gave him. I was super excited to test it and get it working well. Little did I know it was on the 50GB plan, and I ended up using up the ENTIRE FIFTY GIGS IN TWO HOURS!! Because I was doing so many speed tests and uploading pictures and videos from the trip, hahaha
Location: Montana. Local phone company charged $0.30 / GB for internet resulting in some of our monthly bills being over $450/month - ouch! So we switched to Starlink and paid $90/month - that saved the $600 the Starlink equipment cost in just a few months. Plus, I wrote to my local phone company and told them why. 2 years later (how responsive of them) the phone company capped their maximum Internet cost to $80. So Starlink is having an positive benefit even for those not using it.
I’m a full-time traveler who recently switched from years of using a Verizon MiFi device. Two months ago, I took possession of my Star Link 3rd generation (roaming), and it works as advertised at $165.00. This product will force the Verizon & ATT companies to offer discounts for their MiFi devices to become an internet price war in 2025
We have both mini and residential. Mini for camping/RV'ing and residential for home. And yea, we have to turn on service off and activate the other...not a big deal but a single plan where you can toggle between residential and mini would be very cool. We use the unlimited roaming plan for the mini since I work while on the road.
I bought the Mini and it’s affixed to the inside roof of my CyberTruck via 3D printed mount and suction cups. I cannot tell you how incredibly useful this is for me. I own a tech company and I’m constantly driving from Florida to other states and needless to say Internet is spotty at best. This is a lifesaver as my business is 60% virtual paperwork for contracts and research. Now I can take longer trips to remote locations and just enjoy the natural beauty of this country.
@@tr-lj2vx - while I agree and understand what you’re saying, unless you’re lugging around a 32”+ screen with you, there’s absolutely no reason to be streaming 4k imo to phones, tablets, laptops, etc. it’s a total waste of bandwidth if you’re being metered.
I just ordered my standard starlink December 9th and rcvd it on the 13th. Standard kit was $249. $120 monthly for life. I live in middle of nowhere Wildoming, and I'm very happy that Starlink was quick on delivery. No more freezing on streaming football games! 😊
Since I'm a content creator on RUclips living out in the country near no one, Starlink is the only way I can upload 3 videos a week and livestream once a week. I purchased their business plan which is $250 a month but gives me priority connection during congested peak hours. I love it. It's very fast and never goes out.
I have been using the mini in Subaru for $30/mth with my home plan version 2 from the start. Use it while driving in US and Canada often. Works great in both countries.
Oh My God. finally i travelled to get my own stralink kit. after long following your videos and watching many having this kit. now i have it too. thanks to your channel
Live in the PNW. Got Starlink 1 1/2 years ago. Offered the mini dish for $30/mo and decided to get it for my RV. I was surprised by this offer, hearing there is a waiting list in this area.
Hi I live in South Australia and Starlink offered me 50gig roaming deal for $50 per month and the Mini dish for $299 Australian $ I have taken them up for the deal and should see the mini in the mail on Monday. I’m already a Starlink customer for the past 2yrs or so. Paying $140/ month soon $190/ month with both services. I definitely injoy informative channel. Cheers Neil.
Starlink Mini hardware now US$186, and Roam 50 GB plan is US$50 monthly here in Asunción Paraguay, South America. Greetings. PD: I'm a new subscriber since today.
I purchased the mini bundled last week and activated it yesterday. needing to replace a cell phone, trying to find out pricing for the T-Mobile DTC plan. I use it mainly for wifi calling as cell reception is extremely poor where I live. If you have the bundled and paying $30 a month, if you pause it, when you reactivate it, it will go to $50 (or the current pricing for normal subscription). That is the risk you pay. You can pause, but you lose the lower monthly rate. It was drawing only 36-37 watts. However, the minimum supply required is 100w. I think that is to ensure a constant power source for the mini, and especially if you need to heat the dish. I had it plugged into my car's 12V system. You will need to buy the cable that allows you to plug into a USB-C connection. It was a little shy of $35 from StarLink.
Love your videos. NW Washington State. Our monthly residential costs have been $120/month since May 2023. Next payment for December 2024 is the same. Todays speed test: downloads:169Mbps, uploads:23, latency:23
FYI Starlink in Australia has reduced its pricing for both Starlink and plans Starlink Mini only $299 AUD ($191.21 USD) and $80 AUD ($51 USD) per month for the 50 GB plan
@@williammoore5485 this is not offical advice but I think it should work, given theres starlink satellites orbiting the earth constantly - should not see why it should not work - just would be an issue or performance thats all.
Thanks !!!! And I’m praying you’re right about it getting better. The high speed has been excellent but not the increase in price! Appreciate your podcast! Mickey
I would love to get Starlink In central Florida but the Residential plan is still $120 a month ? It’s still to much for a Senior on a budget ! I believe Seniors should get a discount that some companies provide
The reason the flip service would not work for most users it that all cameras/ring service/other smart home functionality would cease to work in your home while you were out roaming.
I use SpaceX for on off-grid property. I have been challeged since when I enter my billing details it is my home address. Not the off Grid property. so I end up paying roam price instead of residention. Since the addresses dont match. I am looking at a mini to use instead on the off grid property and see if that will help. Keep you posted. Great content
mini kit is ideal for campers and pensioners love their campers. In Europe i noticed today that there was 25 euros monthly and the mini dish is 322 euros. They call it the starlink mini studio
Just purchased the residential unit and service here in Arizona . $249 for dish (limited time purchase) and $120 a month for service. Would really like to see a price drop in service for Veterans and Retired people.
I will not be really really cheap for at least 10 more years. The corpororation need to keep prices high... to keep the stock valuations at there highest. The two go together.
I was in the early Mini offer back in July for $599, but my monthly service has always been $28.95 for the Mini (added to my Starlink account with my regular starlink dish).
I was one of the Hurricane Helene victims in NC and had lots of cell issues in the aftermath. I decided to get Starlink to alleviate any future issues for my home. Hardware arrives in a week or so and looking forward to giving it a shot.
I have the mini because I use it for my rv travels, this Thanksgiving travel several people in our 50 plus rv group had the starlink mini. When we went to yellow stone park , we saw several starlinks units at the rv park.😊 I love having the starlink because some rv parks their wifi is so weak that you do not get power , so sad.
Figuring down in Florida the price last year was roughly almost $300 to 240. It’s now down to 125 which is actually a really decent price. Looking forward to it hitting the $80-$90 mark though.
Living in mountains, internet access has always been a problem. Recently cell tower access has improved and cellular home internet is now available for only $35 a month. Starlink is looking more and more attractive.
I've got a Gen 3 dish, which I modified a mount to replace the TV antenna on my RV (yes, you can raise, lower, and rotate it from inside the RV - when lowered and locked for travel it works in motion)... Plus, when parked next to the house I've got a range extender to cover the house... We expect to cancel our cable Internet soon, since Starlink actually has lower latency (for phone calls) and reliability (even in snow storms!).
Just bought the standard kit. Paid $358 for the kit and $50 for the monthly service. Initial speed test shows between 180-250Mbps. Located in the southern part of Norway.
I have the main residential plan and the Starling Mini and currently pay $150/month for the Roaming Plan at 50GB/month for the Roaming portion of the plan.
In WY. 90.00 per month gen 3 residential 300-440 Mbps on average. Really happy so far. 349.00. For the price of these i think they should allow the customer to add 1 of whatever mount meets their needs instead of the ridiculous kick stand
I had the v2 since August of 22 on my house and worked great, then when they lowered the v3 price I purchased that and installed the v3 on the house and moved the v2 to a roam plan @$150m to my rv and that was a great addition to the rv experience no more internet issues and it is paused when not in use. I had thought about changing the v2 on the rv to a mini but the v2 works just fine and hard to justify the cost of the hardware at lower speeds imho.
Two dishes on one roaming plan would be perfect. We leave our starlink in a remote location and need roaming as we sometimes use it on a boat. It's probably only used for 90 days a year, so it would be great to be able to use a second mini dish at other times.
If this is intruduced in Manila I will be glad to have an Starlink . The only problem is that the cost of hardware and the monthly fee is tremendously high for an average income earner. Let it compete with the local provider . I'm currently paying 34$ monthly.
Hey JCristina, Question. Do you think Starlink just start restricting Residential service to only those who dont have a better option? I know several people who have gotten Starlink because they are just tiered of dealing with other providers and are not concerned with getting 1gb service.
I’m still looking at this BUT I’m completely off grid so power usage is an issue. Who do I talk to about this and other mitigations of our nomadic winter every year. Thanks any information is appreciated.
I live remotely and I camp a lot and I don’t want to pay for 2 Starlinks so the mini unlimited is the answer. Easy to understand. I have both a gen three and a mini. trying to determine best approach for subscriptions
Had not checked my speeds in months. After the video last week I checked and can report my speeds in south texas are back up to 240M which is where I was 3 years ago in beta.
I had this idea about 2 dishes on one account a couple months ago and contacted Starlink about this. They told me each dish has to have its own account. So now I have a standard dish and a mini. Doesn't make sense, but here we are. I have use for both but def didn't want to pay for 2 accounts. So now I will pause my standard when not in use.
I have the GEN 2 the GEN 3 and I ordered the mini last week. I’ll let you know how it fares compared to the others. I work in construction areas with no cell service or internet that’s why I got it
@ update the plane includes on water and in motion tried it out while driving through the smoky mountains bad coverage still getting around 50 down 20 MS and 11 upload on average with a bunch of trees in the way while moving
Starlink should offer a discounts to seniors living on a fixed income. We love to camp,and travel while trying to enjoy our retirement. We need to stay in touch with our doctors and pharmacies for our medication.
I've been looking forward to getting starlink but when I came down to get it it was $580 bucks to buy the hardware and 140 a month.. so using my phone for a hotspot and I got an additional hotspot on my cell service and it works out to be way less than a hundred bucks a month.. and no purchase of any hardware
I live in a built rig - I use my v3 and mini for work every single day… I’d have to argue there is a use case outside of the live in a box or building in the same spot everyday like everyone else
I get a kick out of how it would be cheaper to get 3 of these new plan bundles to cover my monthly data needs versus just giving me an unlimited plan at like $75/mo on one dish.
🚀 SpaceX just dropped a surprising new deal on one of their Starlink dish, slashing prices and rolling out a budget-friendly service plan-but there’s a catch.

I own a tech company and I’m constantly driving from Florida to other states and needless to say Internet is spotty at best. This is a lifesaver as my business is 60% virtual paperwork for contracts and research. Now I can take longer trips to remote locations and just enjoy the natural beauty of this country.
Internet may be spotty in the US, but super charging stations in remote areas where internet is spotty is even spotty-er
I have the mini. I use it for work and run it off of an Anker Solix C200. Absolutely love this thing! Worth every penny!
This is perfect for people who travel on the road. Too bad monthly price doesn’t come down for majority of subscribers. Thanks for sharing the video.
Agree.
@@tr-lj2vx I use 13Gb per month, wife uses less than 5 on our phones.
Guess we have other things to do
@@tr-lj2vx - while I agree and understand what you’re saying, unless you’re lugging around a 32”+ screen with you, there’s absolutely no reason to be streaming 4k imo to phones, tablets, laptops, etc. it’s a total waste of bandwidth if you’re being metered.
I pay $25/mo. for a single cell phone connection with Spectrum, used anywhere. I'd like to use Starlink to support Musk but it's still way too high.
I just ordered my standard starlink December 9th and rcvd it on the 13th. Standard kit was $249. $120 monthly for life. I live in middle of nowhere Wildoming, and I'm very happy that Starlink was quick on delivery. No more freezing on streaming football games! 😊
Where did you get it for $249? I've seen it for $349 at Home Depot and Best Buy.

Since I'm a content creator on RUclips living out in the country near no one, Starlink is the only way I can upload 3 videos a week and livestream once a week. I purchased their business plan which is $250 a month but gives me priority connection during congested peak hours. I love it. It's very fast and never goes out.
Are there really any congestion times?
Would love to get it for that price! I’m looking at paying $600 for hardware and $165 a month for unlimited high speed service.
If you are near no one, the you'll not have any congestion time
I have been using the mini in Subaru for $30/mth with my home plan version 2 from the start. Use it while driving in US and Canada often. Works great in both countries.
Oh My God. finally i travelled to get my own stralink kit. after long following your videos and watching many having this kit. now i have it too. thanks to your channel
Live in the PNW. Got Starlink 1 1/2 years ago. Offered the mini dish for $30/mo and decided to get it for my RV. I was surprised by this offer, hearing there is a waiting list in this area.
Hi I live in South Australia and Starlink offered me 50gig roaming deal for $50 per month and the Mini dish for $299 Australian $
I have taken them up for the deal and should see the mini in the mail on Monday.
I’m already a Starlink customer for the past 2yrs or so. Paying $140/ month soon $190/ month with both services.
I definitely injoy informative channel.
Cheers Neil.
Starlink Mini hardware now US$186, and Roam 50 GB plan is US$50 monthly here in Asunción Paraguay, South America. Greetings. PD: I'm a new subscriber since today.
Having two dishes and only one account would not work for me because I have cameras and sensors that keep working when I’m away.
I have a Gen2 we used for camping and now a Mini. I'm torn because I love the Gen2 but the Mini is incredible. I leave it in my backpack all the time.
Just ordered the mini in Canada! Just happy it’s available now.
I received an offer of AU$299 For the kit & $50 per month. (Australia)
N/E Idaho and it was a game changer..6mps to avg 190.. Its been great for 2years...
I purchased the mini bundled last week and activated it yesterday. needing to replace a cell phone, trying to find out pricing for the T-Mobile DTC plan. I use it mainly for wifi calling as cell reception is extremely poor where I live.
If you have the bundled and paying $30 a month, if you pause it, when you reactivate it, it will go to $50 (or the current pricing for normal subscription). That is the risk you pay. You can pause, but you lose the lower monthly rate.
It was drawing only 36-37 watts. However, the minimum supply required is 100w. I think that is to ensure a constant power source for the mini, and especially if you need to heat the dish. I had it plugged into my car's 12V system.
You will need to buy the cable that allows you to plug into a USB-C connection. It was a little shy of $35 from StarLink.
Love your videos.

Our monthly residential costs have been $120/month since May 2023.
Next payment for December 2024 is the same.
Todays speed test: downloads:169Mbps, uploads:23, latency:23
FYI Starlink in Australia has reduced its pricing for both Starlink and plans Starlink Mini only $299 AUD ($191.21 USD) and $80 AUD ($51 USD) per month for the 50 GB plan
Just wondering, would you know if Starlink works in PNG or Iranjaya?
@@williammoore5485 this is not offical advice but I think it should work, given theres starlink satellites orbiting the earth constantly - should not see why it should not work - just would be an issue or performance thats all.
You have done a great job on all you do .thanks alot
Thanks so much!!! Blessings!
Thanks !!!! And I’m praying you’re right about it getting better. The high speed has been excellent but not the increase in price! Appreciate your podcast! Mickey
I would love to get Starlink In central Florida but the Residential plan is still $120 a month ? It’s still to much for a Senior on a budget ! I believe Seniors should get a discount that some companies provide
I'm a senior too, I always wonder why seniors think they are entitled to discounts?
I love my mini and I use an USB-C to the dc in to bypass the use of the AC plug, I’ve noticed this setup is much more efficient.
The reason the flip service would not work for most users it that all cameras/ring service/other smart home functionality would cease to work in your home while you were out roaming.
I use SpaceX for on off-grid property. I have been challeged since when I enter my billing details it is my home address. Not the off Grid property. so I end up paying roam price instead of residention. Since the addresses dont match. I am looking at a mini to use instead on the off grid property and see if that will help. Keep you posted. Great content
I love the updates.
CANADA 🇨🇦 just got the mini’s Tuesday! Scooped one up 399$cdn waiting for the bundle package with residential before I fully light it up
So awesome. Congrats. Great unit.
mini kit is ideal for campers and pensioners love their campers. In Europe i noticed today that there was 25 euros monthly and the mini dish is 322 euros. They call it the starlink mini studio
Just purchased the residential unit and service here in Arizona . $249 for dish (limited time purchase) and $120 a month for service. Would really like to see a price drop in service for Veterans and Retired people.
🛰 🚀 🇺🇸🛰 🚀 🇺🇸🛰 🚀 🇺🇸🛰 🚀 🇺🇸 WOW!!!!!!
I will not be really really cheap for at least 10 more years. The corpororation need to keep prices high... to keep the stock valuations at there highest. The two go together.
I was in the early Mini offer back in July for $599, but my monthly service has always been $28.95 for the Mini (added to my Starlink account with my regular starlink dish).
I was one of the Hurricane Helene victims in NC and had lots of cell issues in the aftermath. I decided to get Starlink to alleviate any future issues for my home. Hardware arrives in a week or so and looking forward to giving it a shot.
Darn! The residential monthly price didn’t come down. If it ever does come down to where I can afford it I’ll get. Great channel, JC.
🛰 🚀 🇺🇸 Sadly.. Thanks for being here!
Curious about getting it and multi-WAN it into my router to get faster speeds when at home?
I have the mini because I use it for my rv travels, this Thanksgiving travel several people in our 50 plus rv group had the starlink mini. When we went to yellow stone park , we saw several starlinks units at the rv park.😊
I love having the starlink because some rv parks their wifi is so weak that you do not get power , so sad.
Oh ya. Having your own high speed internet on the go is so much better than relying on others WiFi.
Northeast Indiana residential 299.00 and 120.00 per month since September no problem at all.
where do you find how many gigs you are using?
Standard dish-satisfied customer.
Figuring down in Florida the price last year was roughly almost $300 to 240. It’s now down to 125 which is actually a really decent price. Looking forward to it hitting the $80-$90 mark though.
Living in mountains, internet access has always been a problem. Recently cell tower access has improved and cellular home internet is now available for only $35 a month. Starlink is looking more and more attractive.
I am in BC Canada just bought yesterday, mini is $399CA.. &$50.
Consider the value of the Canadian dollar.
So if I get the 50 gig plan, how much is it should you go over?
What's this marine dish you mentioned ?
I've got a Gen 3 dish, which I modified a mount to replace the TV antenna on my RV (yes, you can raise, lower, and rotate it from inside the RV - when lowered and locked for travel it works in motion)... Plus, when parked next to the house I've got a range extender to cover the house... We expect to cancel our cable Internet soon, since Starlink actually has lower latency (for phone calls) and reliability (even in snow storms!).
Do any of the starlink parts you receive for service have any cameras, listening devices, or other invasive features?
Nope
That's amazon and google

Just bought the standard kit. Paid $358 for the kit and $50 for the monthly service. Initial speed test shows between 180-250Mbps. Located in the southern part of Norway.
Do you think 🤔 it’s possible for the standard starlink monthly drop sense it can be used in rural areas that the government tried to do but never did
110%
I have the main residential plan and the Starling Mini and currently pay $150/month for the Roaming Plan at 50GB/month for the Roaming portion of the plan.
Great information video thank you
In WY. 90.00 per month gen 3 residential 300-440 Mbps on average. Really happy so far. 349.00. For the price of these i think they should allow the customer to add 1 of whatever mount meets their needs instead of the ridiculous kick stand
sweet
I had the v2 since August of 22 on my house and worked great, then when they lowered the v3 price I purchased that and installed the v3 on the house and moved the v2 to a roam plan @$150m to my rv and that was a great addition to the rv experience no more internet issues and it is paused when not in use.
I had thought about changing the v2 on the rv to a mini but the v2 works just fine and hard to justify the cost of the hardware at lower speeds imho.
The mini is a nice option if you want the battery feature.
Two dishes on one roaming plan would be perfect. We leave our starlink in a remote location and need roaming as we sometimes use it on a boat. It's probably only used for 90 days a year, so it would be great to be able to use a second mini dish at other times.
Australia currently has a Christmas special on the mini. $299 hardware and $50 roam Australian for 50 gig plan. Ends 31st Dec
Thanks for the heads up. I did find I was invited and decided to add the mini to my plan. Did not even see this e-mail.
Awesome Plan, Mini on my Jeep Gladiator!
I need that mini for trips with the kids and to be safe.
If this is intruduced in Manila I will be glad to have an Starlink . The only problem is that the cost of hardware and the monthly fee is tremendously high for an average income earner. Let it compete with the local provider . I'm currently paying 34$ monthly.
Hey JCristina, Question. Do you think Starlink just start restricting Residential service to only those who dont have a better option? I know several people who have gotten Starlink because they are just tiered of dealing with other providers and are not concerned with getting 1gb service.
Doubtful.. I will be watching and reporting back of course!!!
I like your plan
great video! Ive been considering purchasing a Starlink
Thank you
i own the business dish now i have brought the mini to go climb some mountains on dish $329 Aussie dollars and the unlimited plan
Personally, I wish they would implement a per GB plan for residential use so I could use Starlink as a backup to my primary ISP.
I’m still looking at this BUT I’m completely off grid so power usage is an issue. Who do I talk to about this and other mitigations of our nomadic winter every year. Thanks any information is appreciated.
I live remotely and I camp a lot and I don’t want to pay for 2 Starlinks so the mini unlimited is the answer. Easy to understand. I have both a gen three and a mini. trying to determine best approach for subscriptions
Great Idea!
🛰 🚀 🇺🇸
I have a mini and a one and a two, haven't hooked up the mini yet, waiting to go camping.
gen 3 res 120.00 a mth 399.00 for hardware looking forward to 55.00 a mth for res plan
Had not checked my speeds in months. After the video last week I checked and can report my speeds in south texas are back up to 240M which is where I was 3 years ago in beta.
I am using a starlink mini dish as my daily driver.
I have been using it for 3 months and have no problems.
Sweet!
I had this idea about 2 dishes on one account a couple months ago and contacted Starlink about this. They told me each dish has to have its own account. So now I have a standard dish and a mini. Doesn't make sense, but here we are. I have use for both but def didn't want to pay for 2 accounts. So now I will pause my standard when not in use.
Starlink will be worth over a trillion market cap one day.
I have the GEN 2 the GEN 3 and I ordered the mini last week. I’ll let you know how it fares compared to the others. I work in construction areas with no cell service or internet that’s why I got it
3 ... WOW!!! 🛰 🚀 🇺🇸
@ update the plane includes on water and in motion tried it out while driving through the smoky mountains bad coverage still getting around 50 down 20 MS and 11 upload on average with a bunch of trees in the way while moving
Using it in far north Michigan and it’s great but expensive. Hard to do when retired but we are making it happen. 👍😀
is there a price drop for Europe ?
🛰 🚀 I believe the prices are getting closer oversea before here in the US
Not dropping the price for residential service with a regular size dish are they... Oh well. Best service I can get in the middle of nowhere.
🛰 🚀 🇺🇸 I hope they do soon 🛰 🚀 🇺🇸
It'll probably start dropping once Starship is launching the new satelites.
They'll be serving more customers with cheaper launches.
Starlink should offer a discounts to seniors living on a fixed income. We love to camp,and travel while trying to enjoy our retirement. We need to stay in touch with our doctors and pharmacies for our medication.
I bought the mini for our RV travels. Works so good we cut the cord and use our mini for home and travel.
That's a great idea!
It’s how Starlink rolls
Price drop is great and the floods here in NC shows just how useful it is. I’m in a city though and for ME the speeds are the problem.
I've been looking forward to getting starlink but when I came down to get it it was $580 bucks to buy the hardware and 140 a month.. so using my phone for a hotspot and I got an additional hotspot on my cell service and it works out to be way less than a hundred bucks a month.. and no purchase of any hardware
Hey what's up what starlink should I get for Caribbean Grenada
I live in a built rig - I use my v3 and mini for work every single day… I’d have to argue there is a use case outside of the live in a box or building in the same spot everyday like everyone else
Great Idea for the roaming Minnie,too the stationary Satellites Systems.
🛰 🚀 🇺🇸
NE corner of Washington, near I-90 freeway is still a waitlisted area. Current price shows $120 per month. Hardware is $349.
I get a kick out of how it would be cheaper to get 3 of these new plan bundles to cover my monthly data needs versus just giving me an unlimited plan at like $75/mo on one dish.
I have a standard dish and just picked up a mini when the price dropped.
🛰 🚀 🇺🇸 sweet!
I am receiving my Gen 3 today . I paid $249 for the standard 3. I plan on using it in the Roam mode in my motorhome.
