Starlink

Sasktel fiber sucks ours is as slow as a NDPer!!!! Be switching to starlink once our contract is up! Not only that sasktel service is terrible .

Got Starlink after terrible service with other systems. Has worked great. I wish all the things I have bought worked as well with no problems. Cost per reliability has been excellent.

What are other's experiences with support??

I don’t have mine secured well so it blew over once. I messaged them through their app as it didn’t just find a signal again when I flipped it back up. Within half an hour they had replied with several things to try which got it going again.

So… it’s getting pretty cheap to sign up to Starlink and we are seriously considering it. Right now we have Shaw Cable at $165/ month and Sask Tel internet for another $170. I would like to hear what experience others have had with the switch.

It’s simple:

You don’t switch if you have Shaw Cable or Sasktel fiber. Both are better options.

Switching from either of these to Starlink is a bit rude, you end up oversubscribed a limited bandwith satellite service that is most rural users only option.

Starlink is the solution for those that don’t have any other option.

Been a month, great so far. Just tested....236 down, 11 up.

Sent into shop and around yard with Rostec equipment.

Basically if you have good internet service now, you don’t need Starlink. If you have bad internet service, Starlink will change your life and be the best thing in the world.
Sitting on a remote wellsite now I am getting this, but have seen over 250 download. No problem streaming or emailing, wifi calling, FaceTime, etc. The people with the most complaints are online gamers, but I am not part of that world.
