    @GradusVeritatis @PatriotsRoar @Starlink If it got low ping and unlimited data, 120 don't sound bad to me vs something like Viasat or Hughesnet

    @BidensDirtyDypr @0xdippo @Starlink We were using microwave RF fixed wireless internet, getting 25 mbps down/5 up. Before that was CenturyLink DSL rarely above 2.0 mbps. We tried HughesNet, and it was abysmal. With Starlink, we're consistently over 100 mbps at 35ms, for the same price as microwave fixed wireless.

    @Hughesnet DO NOT USE THEM THEY LIE. I as supposed to get a rebate card of 200.00 I did everything they required aside from jumping through a ring of fire and they tell me my rebate was denied, they are full of crap and the service sucks. I will be calling the better business bureau!

    @FincherNickolas @MikeyDiMercurio HughesNet provides 100Mb service where Mikey lives but it isn’t from low earth orbit satellites, it’s from geostationary VSAT so latency is a problem. Steaming should be fine but most other uses may suffer. And its upload speed is only 5Mb. Hughes LEO is corporate only.

    @SoilManDan @voteCrosby @j035ich5pach Same..I was way off grid, 100% solar in AZ, 7 years. Radio stations nor TV signals go that far. There are HUGE DEAD ZONES all over the country where even 4G doesnt work. Options are nothing, or starlink. Even Viasat nor Hughesnet even cover all areas..only starlink

    @rodcampsbay I had Starlink in rural Texas and the only other option was Hughesnet . Both were terrible but Starlink worse and I went back to Hughesnet.
