Starlink - High Speed Net?

Starlink won't be no good during a storm

Works perfectly in a storm in the UK, I've never had it drop out due to weather. A category 5 hurricane might be a bit different!

There are many different kind of storms, including solar events. I'm being ambiguous.

out of the Virgin trial now, having to pay for internet like a mer mortal! -.-

just got to wait for the volt to kick in then it'll be 1000/1000 for £39 which am happy with tbh, alternative is 20/5 for £25~

Cant wait to see you only ever utilise 10% of it

That would still be faster than what I had before :P

Thank you!

Probably not worth me getting it then tbh as it would be for gaming, streaming and downloading.

Will just have to wait and see if Virgin will ever come to the village where I live lol.

Fun fact for you is they probably could, but BT were there first and VM don't wanna pay the charges they'd need to run cables to houses.. funny old world we live in, one big game of monopoly.

Nexfibre(Virgin) are installing in a lot of places, guess depends on location.

Yep you're right, I had BT come and install overhead fibre to the property last month!

Only took 3 and a half years to get it to us!
