We have Travlfi and it is sometimes really good and other times it is a little faster than dial up. We had Starlink at our home and we were very pleased with it. We are currently seriously considering Starlink Mobile. Our concern is we like to have access to internet while on the move. Our solution is to pause Travfi while stationary and reactivate it while on the move. Both Starlink and Travlfi can be paused and reactivated.

Dutch I agree. What happens with the over the road truck driver who travels 48 States and Canada? They pay their respective payroll taxes in their home/domicile State.

What has worked best for us is using bait stations outside of the rv in combination with mint spayed inside the rv. The mint should be spread once a month.

The service has been good. I hope you will like your service. My service keeps getting better; attached is the latest speed test.

The beta testing does not have any limits.

I have had Starlink for about 3 months. I live on a farm in Montana and good internet access has been challenging. We live at the end of the power line, the end of the phone line and no cable. Phone line internet is still dial up not even DSL. We were using an unlimited Verizon mobile hot spot. Starlink has been a game changer. Currently (10:46 pm) the internet speed is 150 Mbps, Latency Upload 25 ms - Loaded 55 ms and Upload speed 16 Mbps. Skies are light overcast and the temperature is 12 degrees. Speeds have ranged from 46 to 180; usually the speed is in the 90 to 110 range. It appears those numbers have become more consistent as more satellites are deployed. I have had brief moments with no connection and that lasts about 5 to 10 minutes; the no connection has happened about a 4 or 5 times in the 3 months. There also seems to be a correlation of lost signal and the deployment of more satellites. The dish warms up in cold weather to help melt snow. However, that feature is slow and only does a moderate job of melting the snow. When the temperature was 20 degrees the dish temperature was about 34. When we where at 35 below the dish temperature was about 16 below. At this point, the area I am in has not had a large dumping of snow; therefore, I do not know how the dish will handle a large accumulation of snow. We have had winds gusting to 75 mph and there were no issues. The setup was a simple plug and play. The most difficult part was running the ethernet cable into the house; I had to drill a one inch hole. Starlink now has a better system to plug the hole for the cable.

At 7:30 am on 2/12/2021 we are at 33 below with clear skies. Download: 95 Latency Unloaded: 36ms Latency Loaded: 114ms Upload: 19 Mbps Download speeds have varied from a low of 46 to a of 180. It appears as more satellites are added the more stable the download speeds. If you look closely at the power supply, it shows (Total Max 180W) LPS

The question you posed was: "dlundby, If that is yours please supply a pic of the Ethernet ports on the power supply and on the dish. Your pic has the power stated for each but not which goes where. The link below has the best write up and test resultsfrom an average user. If you have even considered getting one, this should nail it. The best I can find is this:" My written response was: Yes, the photo is from my Starlink power supply. The Ethernet ports are not labeled Port 1 or Port 2. The Ethernet from/to the dish is the Black one; it would be my best guess that the dish would require the most amount of power (1.6A). The dish warms up when it is cold to help melt snow that accumulates on the dish. I live on a farm in Montana and we are experiencing cold and some snow. This morning it was 20 below with a light cloud cover and I had 110 Mbps.

Attached are the specs from the back of the Starlink power supply.

Is it unlimited data?
