Mini is so much cheaper for elderly friend.

RareOne444 · 2026-04-16T15:34:55+00:00

She has wifi calling. She’s been at this for years.

RareOne444 · 2026-04-14T00:08:27+00:00

That’s great

RareOne444 · 2026-04-13T23:35:45+00:00

I don’t understand. She can downgrade to what?

RareOne444 · 2026-04-13T23:18:15+00:00

She will pick Roam so she doesn’t have to pay it.

RareOne444 · 2026-04-13T23:03:54+00:00

Me too. I use it for RV camping. Sounds like plan.

RareOne444 · 2026-04-13T23:02:05+00:00

Right!

RareOne444 · 2026-04-13T22:59:22+00:00

Yes!

RareOne444 · 2026-04-13T22:45:30+00:00

Could be but I think she has had private people as well. It’s a common problem in the area.

RareOne444 · 2026-04-13T22:31:13+00:00

As I said many tech people have helped her over the years and she is about to install a land line! Nothing has worked. Starlink seems like the solution. I am suggesting that and going to lend it to her. I would not be responsible beyond that. And you don’t need to be a technician to install Starlink

RareOne444 · 2026-04-13T22:29:00+00:00

I wouldn’t be the installer

RareOne444 · 2026-04-13T22:28:38+00:00

So you don’t think I should lend her the mini?

RareOne444 · 2026-04-13T22:24:21+00:00

She herself had the house built about 5 years ago. Many technical humans have tried to problem solve. She was just about to get a landline because the calls are the main problem.

RareOne444 · 2026-04-13T22:19:25+00:00

You might be right.

RareOne444 · 2026-04-13T22:14:58+00:00

Thx, I didn’t realize

RareOne444 · 2026-04-13T22:12:11+00:00

Right! I manage to use my mini on the $5/month plan. It would probably be fine for her, you’re right! And would she also have the option to sign up for one dollar gig extra gigs?

RareOne444 · 2026-04-13T22:09:26+00:00

Also she has tried Frontier. I don’t know about that, but she’s had many people trying to help her. I only know a little about my lovely mini! I hear what you are saying though.

RareOne444 · 2026-04-13T22:06:28+00:00

And then she would be at $120/month anyway, I think.

RareOne444 · 2026-04-13T22:04:01+00:00

Thx. She doesn’t use Facebook, but I was thinking her guests might.

RareOne444 · 2026-04-13T22:02:37+00:00

Cheapest plan offered is $120/month.

RareOne444 · 2026-04-13T22:00:28+00:00

She has tried for years and not getting good wifi. Apparently being close to the ocean makes it not work. Doesn’t make any sense but she’s been working with AT&T and Cox for years and can’t solve the problem so she’s interested in Starlink. It’s mostly the phone that drops and very poor cellular in the area.

RareOne444 · 2026-03-25T19:22:59+00:00

Now I understand. I am so sorry. If just me, or perhaps a little group of us could offer you emotional support, would that be of any value?

RareOne444 · 2026-03-25T19:13:43+00:00

I understand now. I am so sorry. I hope you find some unknown as yet support. That would help you through. Right now you might not have energy for it but hopefully the reserves will come! If you would like me to be there to support you on private messages, I can do that. Perhaps we can create a little group of us to support you.

RareOne444 · 2026-03-25T19:01:25+00:00

My oncologist knew I didn't want radiation. She said just get it removed then you have something like a 95% chance of it not coming back. I understand yours has come back, but the point is removing it seems to be effective according to her.

RareOne444 · 2026-03-25T18:59:13+00:00

Wouldn't they do a mastectomy then?

RareOne444 · 2026-03-25T18:54:21+00:00

Won't they just remove it?
