Comment on Starlink loses out on $886 million in rural broadband subsidies
dannym@lemmy.escapebigtech.info 1 year agoDoesn’t match my experience. The worst thing about it is ping, but download is mostly always around 100-200.

Yeah, I’ve always seen at least 20 down, never as low as 1 Mbps the grandparent comment claimed. I usually see roughly 100 Mbps down, though.
That’s based on using it in a few different places in our RV over the summer, some with obstructions from trees in some spots. Regardless of the actual speed, my wife and I were both able to telework and hold conference calls simultaneously without an issue - and my wife would use video (I kept it off, but she used it).
