I hope Starlink is up before I move to the boonies.
I’ve got a buddy who is looking to do so, and good Internet service is a major issue. When you’ve had gigabit speeds, it would be tough moving back to tin cans on the end of a string speeds.
Service is going to start in North US and Canada, 42 degrees latitude and up. I'm at 38 degrees here in MO. We finally have decent GPS signals out here and cell signals are spotty. All these technologies are promised to be global but then they find out a lot of people in the boonies either don't do tech or can't afford it and that it's not profitable to supply service. I'm paying $50/mth for decent DSL so Starlink is going to have to beat that.
There's a lot of unknown details still like who would I buy the service from? Starlink or our phone company or someone else? Will there be data caps like with satellite internet? Will the signal go to crap when certain clouds are overhead? I used to have that problem with sat TV. They called it high clouds. What happens when the little saucer thing gets covered with snow? What happens when a large bird lands on it? Evidently the satellites themselves only have a 5 year life span. That will affect price big time. They'll have to continually launch new ones, probably a couple times a year.
