I live in US and have Starlink in Jamaica. Because my house in JA does 17:31 not have a physical address (with street number) I struggled to complete the setup. Later I learned that I needed to use a nearby popular town as my address and that is how I finally completed the setup. This may be useful to your viewers. Keep up the great work
Thanks for this information much needed trust me this completely slipped mi to put in the video but it’s a very important point your making. Imma pin this comment hopefully the viewers can see your input. Respect 🫡 hope u subscribed!
@@REALTEVINCARTER I’ll also add that my house is in Westmoreland in a town called Bath so I ended up using a nearby area called Strathbogie (PA) as my physical address. Thanks again
I need them to reach above 500mb then I get interested as Digicel offers 250 up 250 down starling gives like 280max and about 14 down that's bad. So like the improvement on starlink but they need to dish out more speeds. Digicel charge us double the price they charge .
😂😂 Tency have the man a carry buckets of water just to prove a point… the internet performance is still good during heavy winter, personally know a few persons in Canada who uses it.
Router bro, not modem. And you don't have to run it through a pipe because its a shielded CAT 6 cable. And the reason why the dish is pointing towards your mango tree in this case is because the dish mush have a view of the northern sky in order for you to be connected and based on the position of your dish, i can see you are experiencing some amount of obstruction there. I would advise you to trim that mango tree for a better view of the sky and you will start experiencing down speed in the 300Mbps and down time of up to 50Mbps. I'm a technician and i have been using Starlink well over a year with zero issues. The most relaible internet service one can have in Jamaica. Also, it is good to inform customers or prospective customers of the incredible filtering system that the router has, where you can block adult and harmful content on the net and can be password protected. Also, by default the heating system is turned on, on the device so i would suggest you turn it off as we are already in a tropical climate and do not need to pre-heat the dish. There are much more i could say but for another time. Good video for someone who is not tech savy.
Thanks my G and also thanks for the information your providing trust it will help a lot of ppl because I didn’t knw I didn’t have to run the wire in pipes I thought I had to protect it from the weather hope the bit of info can help someone else too….respect, hope u subscribe 🫡
@@REALTEVINCARTER Running the wire trough conduit pipes are still recommended because it provide an extra stage of protection from the Jamaica Sun..... I have seen CAT6 cable get eaten by the Jamaica sun after a few years of being exposed to it. For a cheap protection as a Schedule 40 PVC pipe, its worth the extra peace of mind especially when you dont want to be going up on the roof to check every year. Extra protection is always better just in case.
It’s recommended to protect outdoor cables regardless of being shielded as environmental conditions can still affect the cable overtime. The angle of the dish is dependent on your region due to the closest satellite in low earth orbit. The dish is just acting as a transceiver so the little blockage by the mango tree will not impact performance. I think what most persons should be aware of is that if they add a third party router in the setup it should be able to provide up to 1Gbps LAN ports and try to stick to only Cat6 and higher cabling.
@@KarimDMan so did you not know that over a number of years your cables are supposed to be charged? Next thing, shielded cables have 3 layers of protection and a PVP pipe will only add additional heat to a cable already transmitting heat. The cables used by Starlink are weather protected.
Honestly cant believe my video reach Barbados!!! NICE!!...Thanks for the sub we on the road to 1K, Please remember to give us a update here in the comments when u get the device. i'd like to hear how it is in another caribbean country.
Great video bro, your last video persuaded me to get mine last month and I've been enjoying the service so far, my only concern is the heat on the router but I think that is normal since its powering the dish as well. #NoMoreCornwallCommunications lol
Firstly, great video! Idk why you don't have way more subscribers. I can see so much growth in your work compared to the vids from last year. It's looking promising. Keep it up 👍🏿.
Respect 🫡……work never Ganna stop always a try be better thanks for seeing that subs and views soon come just a be patient and gwan work😎…..#roadto1000subscribers
Respect bro . I watched your video before buying mine . Very pleased with the system in Clarendon . The cost is now $7000, however I'm barely getting 200Mbps. Use to get 360...
Ya di better one lol.. when I just got it I was getting at best 250.. these days it's 100 at best... still miles better than what I had.. but still lol
Wow didn’t know it can be used for home....Currently using Starlink for RV full time camping... you can simply use a pole, it don’t have to be super high. RV users take them down and put them up frequently.
When she asked about the weather, I am sure she meant cloud overcast and not rain per se. Here in Florida, I had Dish Network and would lose internet if the sky was cloudy.
@@jamaicaportal yeah that one was just for the laugh but I did mention in the video that it work well in all conditions except the hurricane which I did take it down for. Remember to subscribe we almost at 1000 subs
Yow bro.. blessing and thanks for the video.. av starling bout 3 month now .. the refurbished one also .. no issues.. speed up.. bro mi live Inna d country area where we camel's so u know it wil work everywhere here in Jamaica...
Thanks for droping this comment fam hope people can see this comment and be inspired, how did the refurbished one look though? any sign of use or anything? #subscribeRoadto1K
It is useful to know that you have to install the Starlink dish vertically to get the best service. The website has different types of mounting hardware you can use if there is no flat area on your roof, as is the case with my roof.
Bro I want to know when I get the starlink I can try it at where I am currently staying but I live in the west and thats where it will base if I activate it here will it still work when I go to west ? I really look forward your reply
Yeah it will definitely work I see no reason it shouldn’t, Ive been to events in jamaica where the have a starlink just on the ground getting internet plus Ive seen videos where people drive around in a RV with it too
You have an old system the new modem has land ports version 4 a think it is, even the dish is a gen 4, But funny enough I don't know which version they would send us if we order now I might just order to test. But that roof thing seems like a task.
@@nickwaah2702 great question and definitely. So I was sent this email by the Starlink team and in that email they said the following: “If you are in the path of a tropical storm or hurricane-force winds, there are a few steps you can take ahead of time to minimize potential hardware issues and disruptions to your service: If it is safe to do so, we recommend to bring your Starlink and cables indoors. If you cannot bring your cables inside, protect the exposed ends from water. If the cable does get wet, ensure the cable fully dries out before reconnecting your Starlink.” Honestly I am 100% sure it could work however I wasn’t taking any chances so I took it down from off the roof and tuff out the storm without internet or electricity however wen the storm past there was still no electricity but I connected the Starlink to a generator and it worked like nothing happened
😂 drop on a flow or digicel 3 day plan on you phone and reach out, I heard starlink coming with a telecommunications service so IDK, might help too. good question though. remember to sub
Good question. There are no hidden fees or anything no customs fee no delivery fee, once you pay for your device on the Starlink website that’s it , you just go to DHL and pick it up. Hope this helps #remembertosubscribe 😅
@@allijen2499 👀 you can however I don’t recommend it but if you do let us know how it works out for you here please and remember to subscribe we on our way to 1000 subs
Rain is not an issue, ive gotten heavy rain and as long as my power doesnt go out i know i'm good cellular service might gone but i still have internet
Theres no cost to ship it or clear it when it gets here, you do a one time payment when you are ordering and thats it, they ship it you pick it up and install it, hope this helps. #subscribe1Kjourney
Shipping is pretty easy.. they ship it you collect it at DHL no extra payment, customs fee or clearance fees. #subscribe we on the road the 1000 subscribers!!

@@salochni1 great question, you can order it at starlink.com, as to how you can order it you can watch this video on my channel ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZhIDtgpFza4.html hope it helps.
I want to know if it better than flow 500mbs cause that a just what 100mbs to 280 do you download anything an see it downloading that fast 💨 like try a game are video download an check how long it take
I Honestly cant say if it is better than flow because flow doesn’t operate where I live sadly, which for me makes starlink immediately better but thats just me though, I just think this is mostly for people who are in a remote area that flow or digicel doesnt access, I was using cornwall communications for internet because they were the only ones who would access where i live and I was only getting 5-7 mbps so i amd definitely now complaining now, hope this helps remember to subscribe we on our way to 1K
