Internet Providers

Starlink has just added a few more residential tiers. I just signed up for 100Mbs for $50/mo. Good enough for the 2 of us in the camper. We'll see what happens when we move in a few weeks.

There is an referral program, you get 1 month free and I get 1 month free. Send me PM if interested. Need email address for that.

At our other place the only option is Xfinity and with all the outages that area experiences it's pretty unreliable.

That is exactly what drove me to try SL.

Where we live the only thing we can get is satellite TV and internet. Well, our internet is a local tower that is wireless to us. Cell phone coverage is very iffy. They did run fiber out in our area but only along US Hwy 24 and to Cripple Creek. Maybe one day the will run it out north and south of the highway to where most of the folks live. I do have a SL system in the closet, still in the box. My son did the signal test and never found a strong signal due to trees. I need to cut them down but have been more concerned about cutting dying trees on the property for firewood. Hopefully, I get the trees down this summer so I can get the SL up and running. I aslo saw something about getting SL through Dish Network, which we have. Haven't looked in to it yet, though. I should probably do that before cutting down healthy trees. I can always sell the setup for SL as a lot of folks here have already gone that direction.

Order some extension cable and climb the tree. You can use zip ties and secure the pipe to the tree and have the dish poke out of the top. Just use a rope and harness for safety while you're up there. But you CAN get signal.
