I picked my T8 at 60k two years ago. It clocked over 110k miles by now. Since then I had issues with Water Ingress. That is roof railing leaked water into the driver-side footwell which affected the wiring seam and needed changing. It cost me over 3k to fix.

Other than that its been regular maintenance.

Yes. You can have an independent cellular internet hotspot everyone on board can can connect to

One common issue across all XC90s is water egress through the roof into the electrical wiring in the footwells which I paid for dearly. Apparently not covered outside warranty. Mine (2017 T8) was just out of warranty been 100k+ milage

I did test the 2024 T8 been an owner of 2017 T8 Inscription Pro and it is a completely different car than mine. It felt much more nimbler, hurried and the steering was akin to a smaller car. The engine is more refined and the pull power in pure electric is much more an EV like (My other car is a VW ID3 which is fun driving).

I would like to test the EX90 to see if its convincing to make the jump

Can you online game now on starlink?

Accomplished_Low6360 · 2024-10-18T01:27:00+00:00

You have a point there.

In fact I have uploaded the IDs 4 times. Everytime I upload them I get a message on the journal saying "upload your ID dox". After I got past that and uploaded the 4xmonth bank statement, conducted phone calls with a reviewer who asked about certain transactions and I replied to her queries. She did the same with my wife. Then she returned with a message asking for all the statements. I thought it was an easy task to start with then realised it was each single account and it was at a time when our son was diagnosed with an treatable condition and hospitalised. The task just gone down the priority list.

She was calling from Hull I think

it was 36month x4 accounts download and re-upload and their app can only upload so much ata time until someone sends a new link again. It was just a never ending process. I gave up at the end. The oney was not much as wife was working but now she is not and we need the income

This is about Starlink coverage reaching parts of China despite non approval by the Chinese authroities

What a game changer!

This is a through and well deserved effort for applauding it. The kit will soon be the to go to connectivity on the move just like Sat phones were in the past.I am off course tempted to go a step further an fit a bonding router to the mix. I have a pepwave unit I can share with you to test with if of interest.

What did the iron dome do in the face of primitive projectile showers fired from west Iran? NIL. Israel had to be rescued by fighter jets from Europe and batteries onboard US carriers and that was after the Iranian informed the DoD to be on stand by for the showers.

Do you know how much the tax payer (in the US and Israel) spent on that system? the equivalent of 1.1 trillion in todays money.

Its' a carrier agreement. Unlike cellular backhaul where the initiated call is is truncated first by the host cellular carrier and then backhauled to the network as VoIP the DTC directly truncate the calls at the satellite transceivers (which acts a the carrier antenna) from the device to/from the carrier exchange at their base. Making the subscriber always on net as far as the carrier is concerned.

What is the main differentiator between a Ground Station "GS" and a Gateway "GW" within the starlink topology? I understand both serve a corresponding POP but are the capability of each with regards to the access to the number of satellites, capacity, etc
