    Concerning if true…

  • srhardy on 03/04/2025 - 16:26

    Starlink offer break down is as follows. The DISH is usually $200 off the AU$549 RRP but for the OFFER its at full price now and SL (starlink) now has a $99 residencial plan lite for $99 (speeds 50-100mbs at peak times of deprioritized data) ~ so $139x12 month commitment is $1668 over 12 months (change that plan, miss a payment and they whack you with an $549 penalty) but its full speed, so my mate tells me 200-300mbs and he loves it!

    Are you saving much, well at $549+(99x12) the answer is that works out to be $1739 (not good value) and about the same as the deal if the DISH was $200 cheaper at $349… So is it a must have deal? Well, please think of the children… (joke) the $99 plan sucks but works (its still awesome if your thinking of jumping from the NBN, especially wireless NBN) but not for anyone with a FTTH or FTTC access plan, otherwise go even the Starlink cheapo $99 plan as you wont regret it!
    NOTE: TELSTA do the $99 plan for $125 plus $200 off the $549 DISH ~ so $349 but I cant recommend this offer to anyone in good faith!

    $139 locks in the best deal and if you on the $99 you may not be able to move up as the AU SATT space fills up as many have discovered. This may change as more starlink's get into orbit but SATT demand is growing faster than Elon can toss them up into orbit! Given the NBN price gouge for even slow plans around the $100 mark, its a no brainer for many and the ONLY competition is a 5G DATA MODEM plan from on eof the telcos so check that out before committing and be sure 12months is the sort of commitment your happy with and then go for it if the answers YES.

    • geekcohen on 04/04/2025 - 05:51

      That was last months deal.

      Telstra Starlink is 50Mbps down and 10Mbps up plus you need to use their Telstra Box which is crap. Read more from my previous comment.

      the $99 plan sucks but works

      Have you tried it? From my testing, it is actually still pretty good for those who want basic internet. If you are WFH or running a business, I would suggest the $139, but the lite might still be suitable for most people and/or a holiday home.

      now has a $99 residencial plan lite for $99 (speeds 50-100mbs at peak times of deprioritized data)

      Yet to see it actually drop to that. My testing is showing about 100mbps difference.

      the ONLY competition is a 5G DATA MODEM plan

      Most of the time people who are going Starlink have already either explorer a 4G/5G option or have VERY poor coverage. I did a Starlink install on Monday where you had 0 phone service inside and had to go outside to make a phone call.

    I live in a regional area, and I have to say, love it or hate it, Starlink has been a life saver. I need reliable internet to run my business, and the towers for fixed wireless here are down more often than up. I don't even get enough reception where I am to make a mobile call without wifi. Starlink has been 100% reliable for me, so I have no alternative.

  • FujinShu on 03/04/2025 - 16:43

    Tangentially related to Musk, but Duttard wants to scrap the NBN (Libs fault) in favour of a government contract with Starlink for everyone’s internet.
    That’s just the dumbest idea ever, and I hope we don’t see Dutton OR Musk in parliament.

    • Grok on 03/04/2025 - 17:00

      Actually the NBN is negotiating with Amazon’s Kuiper Service to replace their Sky Muster boat anchor.

      And Amazon’s service doesn’t even have one satellite in orbit yet, plus even Blue Origin has never actually launched a satellite.

      So MDS is evident even here,

      • maxbon on 03/04/2025 - 19:02

        I wonder if they shouldn’t start negotiating with Eutelsat/OneWeb instead. At least, they have satellites in orbit and are operational.

    I've had starlink for nearly 2 years. What a game changer it is for rural & semi rural homes.

    The monthly price put me off getting it but a sale came along and I bought it, best desecion ever.

    I've had 2 dropouts from the beginning, which seemed to be Australia wide. No speed, connection or weather issues. If you're on the fence. Go for it if you can afford it.

      I've had 2 dropouts from the beginning, which seemed to be Australia wide.

      Likewise and I think 1 of them was also Global but Starlink was onto it. It showed a notice in the App and it was fixed within a hour. When do you ever see that from NBN? NBN would be "sending a technician, ETA x days".

      I've had more downtime from my primary connection than Starlink.

      Sadly, none. Even if you got it delivered to another address and then moved address, you would be charged the hardware cost. It's in the T&Cs.

      No work around in getting free hardware. You must be in the small area of NT not allowed

      • beardo on 30/04/2025 - 08:35

        • geekcohen on 30/04/2025 - 08:51

    So i moved to a rural community at the start of the year. I went with what i thought was best value at the time being Skymesh/SkyMuster. Boy, what an absolute dunga. 2 months to receive my welcome email, 3 months before i could even access their user account page. Phone service was usually a 3-4 hour wait, thats if my call didnt disconnect. When i went to cancel, i was given a direct line to call which surprisingly got me in touch with someone within minutes. Speeds were crap, dropouts were regular, shocking customer service. Speeds 80/20 with 600 ping.

    Went with this deal with Starlink. Easiest set up i've had with a provider, just plug and play! Down speeds have been amazing, ping and upload not so much, better than what i had when i was living metro with FTTP and the customer service despite being slow via their message service (24hr wait), they are insanely quick to fix my issue and offer credit for my downtime (sent me a dish that didnt work at my address). Speeds 320/15 with 130 ping.

    Starlink 10/10. Worth every dollar.

    Skymesh 0/10. Go f- yourself.

    • geekcohen on 05/05/2025 - 05:59

      the customer service despite being slow via their message service (24hr wait), they are insanely quick to fix my issue

      Out of curiosity, what have your issues been?

      Speeds 320/15 with 130 ping.

      You must be in SA, NT, TAS or QLD? Ping of 130 is very high…… so you must be in a state where there isn't a ground station and/or POP.

        Dish arrived already activated at another address. Replacement was sent quickly and a full month was credited to me.

        Down in Tassie. 130 is high, sometimes halves that but rarely. Much better than the 600 before. Good thing i'm an offline gamer!

          Yeah, that makes sense, your closest ground station would be VIC then, so buy the time there is the all the transfer between satelittes and then via the ground station to the MEL or SYD POP that explains it. I've noticed my traffic is going via their MEL POP now which is great, used to be all SYD.

          Hopefully they will deploy more ground stations around AU and help with that latency. But yes, better than Sh*tmuster ping.

      There is a demand surcharge in your area

      Due to high demand in your area, there is an additional one-time charge to purchase Starlink services.

      Starlink Standard Kit: $549

      Demand Surcharge $145

      Total Due Today $694

      Doesn't seem to be the case in Western Sydney.

      Imagine NBN saying my neighbours already have NBN, so they're charging me $145 additional for being a copy-cat wanting it too. Wait, don't give them ideas…

            But that is why there is a "Congestion Tax" to deter people from signing up in metro areas. If people have it in those areas, they are obviously happy to invest and spend almost $700 to land the Starlink on their door! That's before installation and/or any other accessories.

You would have supported free speech on twitter when it was bent the other way when Jack Dorsey was running the leftist love fest.

            Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey has taken full responsibility for the social media platform’s many failings — admitting he “completely gave up” pushing back against powerful activists in the company.

            The site’s former CEO took full “blame” in a blog giving his “take” on the “Twitter Files,” which have exposed a series of extraordinary behind-the-scenes maneuvers buckling to political pressure, starting with censoring The Post’s exclusive exposes on Hunter Biden’s laptop.

            He now believes that Twitter should have stuck to three core principles, including keeping the company out of controlling posts and algorithms spreading them — and being “resilient to corporate and government control.” That AUTOCRATIC BIDEN GOVERNMENT CONTROL…..

I have spoken to some survivors personally who have come here to escape. Some of them were not even robbed as a motive, they were targeted tortured without mercy before being killed in ways that can't be described here. If the demographics of these atrocities were opposite, it would be world wide news 24/7. Try telling the people I have spoken to that it is all tripe.
