    Starlink is not a replacement for cable, fiber, or good 5G.

      I opted to send back my starlink unit because Bells wireless connection at 40/10 was more stable and had less than 1/2 the jitter

      Disagree. Do you have one? I do. It’s an incredible piece of technology.

        Yes, I have Starlink. It’s significantly better than the DSL I had, but I will switch to fiber the instant it becomes available here.

        It’s incredible as long as everything is 100% optimal. Because my co worker’s yard has trees just barely too tall around it his connection drops all the time. Heavy storms also cause issues

        When it works it’s great. But it doesn’t always work. 5g is MUCH more reliable than Starlink.
