Default Re: Starlink?

I made an adapter out of a pvc fitting and put my dishy on an old Direct TV small dish mount. I've got it tied into my home network with the ethernet adapter. Speeds are about twice as fast as DSL when either is at maximum. It tells me it's having outages but I never notice them. The latency seems to have no effect.

Same here, DSL is rock solid and going to be upgraded to fiber real soon. Still will only be getting 100 mbps down and 10 up. I clocked the Starlink at 193 down and about 10 up. If it wasn't for the security cameras at my home that are internet connected I would cancel the DSL and just use Starlink at home and then take it with us when we travel.
