Romeo84 Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Sweet! Keep us posted. What's the total cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
granvillebarker Posted May 5, 2022 Author Share Posted May 5, 2022 Hardware is $649 with shipping before tax, and service is $110/mo. Speed has been 100-200 MB down / 10 MB up. Low latency. Don’t forget the $25/mo portability fee when your on the road, but you can turn that off when not roaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill C Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Isn’t the coverage limited, or not available, in a lot of areas? I was thinking that’s why we are on a waiting list ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDon4u Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Even better than that, go to any T-Mobile store and get T-Mobile "HOME INTERNET". (Home Internet not the MYFI) NO CONTRACT, NO EQUIP FEE, normal SPEEDS from 300 TO 1000 MPS. Turn it off and on when you are not using it. Its a FLAT $50 a month. A bunch of my friends have been using it in their RV's and LOVE IT!!!! https://www.t-mobile.com/isp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can’t beat that price and it has unlimited data with no throttling. With T-Mobile we had connectivity most of the trip, kids could even stream movies while driving. Places like Brice Canyon and Big Bend are where we need Starlink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have the new smaller, square dish? I have the original big round one and it seems cumbersome to take off the pole at home and take it with me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomevansfl Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Is there a start-uo fee and cancellation fee if you have home service and travel for a couple of months? My wife’s a teacher and I’m retired. We can only travel for a couple of months at a time. Considering home service but would only need portability for the summer months. We currently use T-mobile but in some locations the service is slow. we use steaming services at home and can use our Roku anywhere we have internet. We don’t use cable or satellite. We like to stream Netflix, etc. but have experienced buffering in some locals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
