Still should have "other" for those who aren't on NBN.

No Starlink or "Other" option?

Potentially it could be. Prior to the buy out, it was slow and it would take 2 weeks or so for dispatch. I expected it and it was okay,…

I bought one and replaced my Oricomm UHF with the same antenna and it is great! Nice clear receive and a great hand mic. Arrived quickly…

I don't believe so. However, the whole Mwave purchase process seemed very dodgy and very messy. Communication was very average as well.

Might've been the case, but created a poor customer experience. I got $250 mwave dollars and it took 2 weeks just to get the switch I…

Just like the [RX 9070 XT comment](https://www.ozbargain.com.au/comment/16910194/redir). [Be aware of Mwave - Mwave Has Been Placed into…

I think so. I have 2 (one for the house and another for the car) and find its very good.

Yes, but you need an MPPT as well as the Solar Panel.

> It does have a smart alternator See if you can get this turned off. Depending on the vehicle, it is pretty straightforward with the right…

I found 9W to be plenty bright enough. Both for during the day and night time. I don't have mine on Cool White, I have them on Warm White…

Go for the [Philips Down Light LED 1000Lm CCT 9W…

There are about 3 to 4 ground stations in VIC. You are more likely to have issues with 5G, than Starlink. Starlink is still the best for…

In theory, that should work. [Someone else is trying it.](https://www.ozbargain.com.au/comment/16900023/redir).

This is the worst way to do it and I have seen many like this, its terrible. All to save $100 on a roof mount......

I have a Foxtel style Dish Mount (2 bracing bars) and a pole adaptor. PM me for more info and pricing.

Its $8.50 AUD per month.

Yeah it is 512kbps (0.5Mbps) - Upload and Download. [I got 1Mbps down and 0.6Mbps when I did a speed test on my Mini on Standby…

Yes. Many. Depends what type of roof you have, tin or tiled? There are some that are pretty expensive from a 3rd party in Northern…

Please do. Would be interested to see how it goes and if it works with no additional fees.

> The main cost for StarLink is launching satellites into orbit. Once in orbit the on-going costs are small in comparison. And even then,…

Step 3 you can just go straight to Standby. No need to go to Roam before hand. So plausible. Let us know how you go.

Hopefully. If I see it and it hasn't been posted, I'll post the deal.

I had someone want something similar, and they were like, "I want to be off-grid and not rely on main utilities". He had Telsa Battery and…

Yes, lots of people (including myself) unhappy about it. You can cancel and then start again, just a bit more of a process. Not as easy as…

If you cannot get or have unreliable NBN, you are most likely in an area that has poor phone coverage. So that isn't an option. Also, the…

You can use the unit when camping, but you need 240v or the DC-DC Power Supply for 12v. You would need a decent 12v and solar setup. You…

You would need to do it under a new account. Cannot use an existing account. > Offer is only valid for new customers during their first…

Unfortunately looks like the Hardware Discount is excluded for Roam. You can use the Starlink Standard Kit on Roam, just a bit more…
