I read the current Starlink system has a limitation where if you move outside of your assigned service "cell", you lose service. Guessing this is still the case.
Unfortunately this is partly due to FCC regulations.

#24Any ideas why this is $500/mo?
Because it's closer to the actual cost and not subsidised as much.

> Almost seems designed to get people's hopes up only to squash them again. What people have been asking for is an RV/camping/sailing Starlink they can use moving, and that product has yet to materialize. What an odd comment. Seems like a narrow way to blame the marketing. And, a narrow way to cherry pick what doesn't fit your description of what Starlink should be and shouldn't be. In truth, Starlink is an absolute…
It's never gonna work for camping anyways, unless you like to camp in an open field. Trees are the weak spot for Starlink, and even on my 2 acre plot, I could almost not find any clearings free of obstructions. I have a few 40+ foot trees and even though I was over 150 feet away from them, my signal was still getting obstructed.

#26The site says it requires a clear sky to connect. So, in cloudy or rainy conditions, is there no connection or is there reduced speed?

#27I haven't check their prices at all till now and holy guacamole - for about half of their monthly price my ISP gives me up to 1 Gb/s FTTH without transfer limits (asymmetric connection - tho, not an issue; speed varies from city to city but I can't complain now - it's not the faulty copper line that made me more offline than online), unlimited VoIP phone and tv with almost 200 channels and HBO GO (not that I would watch anything) and a mobile plan with 80GB per month w/ unlimited calls. And combined Shipping & Handling and Hardware would give me some 1 or 2 yo Samsung Galaxy smartphone.
It seems I'm not the target for Starlink
Since some of you decided to "punish" me: I am honestly surprised how pricey this service is in Poland and in comparison to what my ISP gives me for half of the price.

So is this another product designed in California for California?

Why would FCC add such limitations?

Of course it’s not for you. It’s not for people with dedicated gigabit fiber lines. This should be pretty obvious.
