New here? This site covers Starlink in the practical sense: what it actually costs, how to install it so it stops dropping, why it slows down at 8 p.m., and which accessories are worth the money. No rumors, no hype — just the things you need before and after the box arrives.
If you’re still deciding whether to order, start with the practical guide for buyers and current owners. It covers what the service actually is, what it costs in the US right now, what speeds to expect, and the two-minute check that prevents most of the regret people post about later.
How this site is organised
- Starlink 101 — the fundamentals, explained without jargon.
- News — coverage, pricing, policy, and launches that actually change what you can do.
- Hardware — dishes, routers, mounts, cables, power, and the accessories worth buying.
- Hands-on — what it’s like to actually live with the thing.
- Troubleshooting — fixing drops, slow evenings, and the snow problem.
New posts go up as I work through gear and setups. If you want a specific question answered, the About page has the contact details.
