Meh. Now, if they can manage to get Windows 10 updates to work right that - that - would be an accomplishment!
I am afraid that the next release of SpaceX will lock everything up and keep asking for the password even after you CAREFULLY put in the right one.
Then when they call for support, Manu, uh I mean Steve, will respond with “Is your space capsule properly plugged in?”
I did a search for SpaceX satellite connections and found this:
The two benchmark tests, conducted using Ooklas Speedtest.net service, show Starlink achieving a 102 to 103Mbps download rate, 40 to 42Mbps upload rate, and a latency of 18 to 19ms. (Note: Ookla is owned by Ziff Davis, PCMag.com’s parent company.)
(For comparison, the average latency for fixed broadband in the US is 25ms, while the rate on mobile networks is at 48ms, according to Speedtest.net.)

Most people focus on bandwidth, but latency is king! During the 1980’s I would point out that the highest bandwidth for long haul was a Mack Truck filled with magnetic tapes. It provided the best bandwidth, but the latency wasn’t particularly good. :) Latency comes to the foreground for any protocols used for two-way communication.
The I.E.E.E. (Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers) had an article in the 1980’s where they reported that high tech firms in San Francisco were using rolls of microfiche attached to the feet of carrier pigeons for large data transfers within the city and surrounding areas. This was at a time when modems were connected to phone lines for the highest data transfer rates.
Those updates are all about spying on you.
