I am almost ready to the pull the trigger for Starlink. But at the moment it takes more draw then I like on my solar bank and my cell phone tethered internet is quite fast/ and 1/3 the cost. In all the time I’ve been on the road and not had cell based internet I didn’t really want it.

“I am almost ready to the pull the trigger for Starlink.”

I used it for a year kind of on loan. It has some problems and I had to stop using it. The starlink system is plagued with the same problem all carriers have. Too many users on the system slowing it down. There were times, more than not, when it was as slow as 56k dial up and almost useless. And they put garbage in your machine without warning or permission. They were cryptojacking my resources. I had to stop using it and completely reload my OS to be rid of it.
