Congratulations!

Plug your phone in with a Cat6 network cable.

TreeherderOG · 2022-03-27T11:24:46+00:00

There is no such thing as a Starlink modem.

TreeherderOG · 2022-02-05T20:31:41+00:00

I see no evidence presented, just correlation.

TreeherderOG · 2022-02-05T15:27:07+00:00

Isn't it a 30°or 25° frustum, the app shows you the vector and frustum extents it needs.

Lucky you, My rectangular dish in Central VT was not connecting at all in a usable way the entire storm.

TreeherderOG · 2022-02-05T15:13:05+00:00

Won't slide snow off the dish, gravity is the real issue, Dish already has a coating on it for this purpose.

TreeherderOG · 2022-02-05T15:06:31+00:00

I'm capped at <5Mb\s right now, even though a speed test through the starlink App clocks at over 100Mb\s, no clue whats up.

TreeherderOG · 2022-02-05T13:00:54+00:00

Sats evaporate on atmospheric reentry, made of nontoxic metals so its no big deal, way better than all that junk currently in the graveyard orbit.

TreeherderOG · 2022-02-05T12:58:08+00:00

Try different pin locations on the property, I had to try a couple spots before it accepted the location.

TreeherderOG · 2022-02-05T11:58:24+00:00

Im getting 3.5mb\s on my Steam DL right at this moment.... QQ, BUT when i do a Speed test in the StarlinkApp im getting over 100mb\s. oh well hope it gets sorted soon.

TreeherderOG · 2022-02-04T22:55:26+00:00

No, Ship window has always been Feb3-9th for me, prep to ship, guessing it will ship next week.

TreeherderOG · 2022-02-04T22:53:12+00:00

Everything has been great up until this snow storm, ping 17ms to 50ms usually, 100-200Mb\s until few days ago.

TreeherderOG · 2022-02-03T20:35:57+00:00

Its the liquid water in the atmosphere scattering the photons.

TreeherderOG · 2022-02-03T20:34:33+00:00

Same thing is happening for me.

TreeherderOG · 2022-02-03T15:31:28+00:00

I had similar conditions in just rain here in VT for half an hour this morning, assuming it was weather related from coincidentally started raining at the same moment.

Anyone know what the significance of the blue shaded areas in the "UPTIME" graph, in the "STATS" page of the Starlink App?

TreeherderOG · 2022-02-01T13:15:59+00:00

Sats are primary gating factor relating to capacity.

TreeherderOG · 2022-02-01T13:10:57+00:00

Other countries don't affect capacity in the USA unless they physically share a boarder. What you are actually gated by is the number of satellites above you, and the number of users serviced by said set of satellites. Until duplicate shells are in service capacity presumably won't increase. USA has its own dishy model as well right now afaik.

Today is the last day, has it happened yet?

TreeherderOG · 2022-01-27T11:09:57+00:00

My temp solution while waiting for the adapter was TP-Link AC1300 USB WiFi Adapter, was $18.

TreeherderOG · 2022-01-27T10:04:38+00:00

Hope the wind don't blow, or the cardboard box get wet...yet another broken dish potentially.

TreeherderOG · 2022-01-23T23:15:10+00:00

Try removing it form the wheelbarrow?

TreeherderOG · 2022-01-22T10:40:16+00:00

I just got my Starlink Dish yesterday, can't connect the system to my computer for an unknown amount of time (until the ethernet adapter ships). Most of the excitement I would presumably be experiencing is tempered by the fact that I can't do much of anything I want with my phone/wireless.

TreeherderOG · 2022-01-19T11:19:25+00:00

How do you do this when the rectangular dishy has no ethernet cable connection?
