I have the Gen 3 and use it while overlanding in the desert and back woods. It's been a game changer I can now make calls from anywhere. I only have it on when in camp for a hr or two at a time. So the power draw isn't a problem. I came across a couple in a broken down side by side in the middle of nowhere in the desert they couldn't get a phone service I popped out my starlink and in around 10 mins was able to get them help. Another thing I really like is I only pay for months that I use it. I can go out for a couple month trip then shut it off till the next time I go out. Not having to pay for when it's not in use.

Worthy of note. For a "backup" during a wide-spread internet outage, Starlink is a godsend. It is becoming increasingly more common for an entire city's internet, telephone, cellphone, and 4/5G data networks to go offline for 2 to 5 days, when some construction workers accidentally slice a fiber connection. When this happens, all services and modes of communication disappear, unless you know someone who has Starlink.

I could get local internet at a much higher speed and at a significant cost reduction due to my work I am staying with the starlink for now. I too had to wait for the dongle to hook up my external routers and hubs. But it came pretty quick after ordering it even here in Brazil.

@daveball3081 11 дней назад

@@MyTechWebTV For me, the UDM-SE strikes a good balance between nerdy network control and ease of use. I also appreciate the unified environment for WAN and LAN activities, including my Unify APs. It isn't the cheapest solution but I like it very much. There is no special integration with the Starlink router - the Starlink router becomes a dumb interface, like a cable modem. The UDM-SE does give me a secondary, basic "health monitor" of the WAN connection. I also enjoy having a remote console at via Unify that allows me to see all of the router's activities. It's not cheap but it was the best choice for my situation.

@peterwest9447 3 месяца назад

Some of my friends recently moved from Chesterfield, VA to Powhatan, VA. To help them get good Internet service, I installed for them the latest model of the Starlink Standard kit (Gen-3). I was pleased that it took only a week to arrive after it was ordered. This is my first time setting up the newest model for residential use, and I was happy with how easy it was to get up and running. It's still getting settled, but the speed has been excellent so far. It has ranged between 119 Mbps to 350 Mbps download and stays about 30 Mbps upload. After the snow melts, I'll mount it on an existing pole on their roof using a pole adapter they ordered from Starlink. To provide them with good coverage throughout their home I set up an Amazon eero router mesh network that is directly connected to the Starlink router. This new router from Starlink has two network ports built in, so it was easy to connect and works perfectly. It made it easy to provide Wifi for two TiVo televisions. They have never used TiVo before either. All in all, I'm very happy with this setup, and so are they.

@TheZeeray Месяц назад

this is false- all starlink dishes regardless of their generation don't use a motor to align themselves with a satellite. they use phased array beam steering with their radios/antennae to maintain beam forming and alignment. the motor is only used once when the dish is powered on. not sure whats backing up your claim of gen 2 being the goat

@crosses101 Месяц назад

@TheZeeray That's bullshit. The the dish moves. It moves the most at first power up yes, and you'll notice for the next 72hrs it continues to move until it finds its optimal position. But after 2yrs of owning it, mine has moved several times.

@TheZeeray Месяц назад

@@crosses101 the only reason it would move is due to the orbits of the constellation and it will scan for an optimal position... but this is an old requirement from a time when the starlink constellation was still quite small and the orbital planes were few and far between globally. but again to address your claim of "maintaining best alignment with the satellite" this is not true, its a phased array beam that continuously points at a given satellite.

Also, the T-Mobile service is $50 with 100GB of normal speeds per month + taxes; if it were $30, I would be OK with having it as a backup as we work from home and homeschool.

Starlink came to win recently - our ISP disconnected our fibre while doing another install and I was able to throw up our camping gen2 Starlink in a few minutes so I could continue working from home. When I unpaused the dish we were only charged to our next billing cycle which was only a couple of days out from when I unpaused, so Starlink prorates. Those three days of Starlink ended up costing me $20. Worth every penny to keep us going.

Do you think there is enough satellite connection even if the northern view is only a slice or not full ? I am wanting to order but there are some trees toward the north so the dish would not be able to have a view closer to the horizon, but it would be north but more upward. would this be enough for good wifi ? thanks !!

A thought on Starlink as a backup ISP vs a cell based backup. One of the things that came out of areas with hurricanes is that large catastrophic storms like that will take down, or severely limit, the local cell connectivity. With Starlink as long as you have power via a generator, inverter or power station you will have an internet connection that is not dependent on local resources. Especially since the satellites with the 'space lasers' can link across to other parts of Starlink's network that are still operational.

Where I live starlink is the best option. No land lines run here, between service areas for cell towers so steady 0 bars on that front.

I am now a subscriber. One thing I liked about your video is that except for the sped-up parts, you did not play any music while you were talking, More and more YT hosts seem to think that 'background' music is a good thing when they are speaking. Um, no it is not a good thing. It makes it very difficult to pay attention to what the host is saying and the c/c are not always accurate (writing 'four' instead of 'fore' as an example I encountered watching an aviation host tell me stuff). So, as I bought a house a few months ago that only has starlink gen 2 as the internet option, what is your opinion as to whether or not it would be worth it for me to upgrade to gen 3 come the springtime?

I got an ad for Starlink in the mail and saw it as a sign to finally look into it as i had been considering using it as my primary home internet service, especially if i could get similar or better speeds for less than the $90ish a month i spend for 300mbps Spectrum cable service, which is the only terrestrial internet service available in my area, as ATT finally discontinued new DSL lines and my area hasnt gotten any fiber yet, and all of the 5G home internet isnt that great at my house because i dont get great cell reception here even though im in the middle of town basically. However, the upfront cost is what really put me off. $600 for the satellite and router is just nuts to me. If i went camping more often i would definitely invest in it for RV use. It is such a cool and interesting piece of tech, but the cost to benefit ratio just isnt there for me yet. Great video, hope to see more Starlink content when you set it up in your RV.

Oh man.. Starlink is a game changer in my area. I had expensive and unreliable zippley. I live in Washington State, we've had heavy rain and heavy snow and haven't had any issues. It does slow a bit at the high usage times.

@Haeze 3 месяца назад

I am curious about the power draw when in Bypass mode so it is not hosting WiFi... You also say that you plan to unpause when you are in an area with no LTE. Is it possible to go somewhere with no internet connectivity, set up Starlink, and unpause BEFORE you have an internet connection to log into the Starlink website ?

What IP address does the Starlink router give your equipment when you are in ByPass Mode? Is it still the private Class C address or does it give the Starlink Public IP?

@billneoorg 3 месяца назад

So you covered a lot of ground and the single most important factor for me is how many outages does your new dish get compared to a gen 1 or gen2 dishy? I mean it’s the outages more than the speed that make life difficult on Starlink particularly 2 second or more outages during video calls

So the dish should be facing north west? Just got mine today n havnt been able to set it up yet. But we do have 1 tree that is north eastish pretty big but nit alot of foliage its a pine tree.

I've modified my Gen 2 system to bypass the router so I can directly connect to my own. I also modified my system to run on a custom 12vDC to 48vDC POE (using Dishy Dually solution). I will also be modifying my terminal so that it can lay flat. No configuration is needed-- it just works. I think the next generation isn't as good because it requires being oriented and used more power. I'll be keeping my gen 2 unit.

How/? Any tips, topics or channels for how to achieve lowest power draw?

@5mxg 3 дня назад

@@TraciDoering-hw8hu Measure. Use smart sockets reprogrammed for 0.1W resolution at low power (15sec measuring time). Connect pulses from utility meter to counter to confirm the total, store and check stored data. I use homeassistant with esphome running on orange pi 3 lts. Every old switch, old accesspoint, provider router can eat as much as 10W. Replacing for example the switch reduced power draw to 0.7..1.3W dependeing on ports. Hungriest IT thing I had was PC with monitor, running for most of a day. 30W@idle + 20W screen. Replaced with used i5-7300 laptop which draws ~4W idling, ~8W playing video. It already paid for itself by lower electricity bill. You will find many things eating power doing nothing for you but only for energy seller's benefit.

Can you setup Starlink without your cellphone aka a cell phone signal? In other words if you are in an area with no cell coverage can you set up Starlink or do you need a cell signal to capture the correct signal location?

@hammer-r 25 дней назад

Great video. New subscriber. I’ve got an RV trailer I want to put this on the roof. Two questions. 1. Once you set up the direction, does it need to be adjusted or are the satellites in geosynchronous orbit so the orientation of the dish will not need to be adjusted. My trailer will be stationary for a few months during the summer in the hills of Colorado and will be using the link to power Amazon cameras for wildlife and theft. 2. How does the power draw comparison to the gen 2. I’m on solar with two large lithium ion batteries and hoping it won’t drain them totally. Many Tks for any input.

@stevehildreth1934 Месяц назад

Upgraded to the gen 3 from the 2nd gen. At the same time we switched from the RV mobile plan to a fixed location. Dish to satellite speed is about the same as before. The difference is I'm getting priority where the mobile wasn't. What I don't like is the mounting options, mine is mast mounted and the optional mount does not fit securely on the mast. I expect the wind will eventually take the dish off the mast.

@insane_jarvis_9857 Месяц назад

17:12 Correct me if I am wrong, but if you are camping in an area with no internet connectivity, then you won't be able to "unpause" your Starlink service. I'm assuming that you "unpause" by using the app on your phone/device, and that your phone would need to connect to Starlink's servers in order to process the request. However, since you're in area without internet connectivity (and your Starlink subscription is already "paused"), then you have no way to connect with the Starlink servers. Am I misunderstanding?

@natebaird 4 месяца назад

Thanks for the overview. I have a gen 2 and was getting ready to flat mount it on my van. I think I'll let SpaceX buy it back from me and upgrade to the gen 3. Seems way easier to adapt to a flat mount, urban situation while still maintaining the ability to have a better connection by popping it out when I'm outside the big cities.
