What Is Jim’s Antennas Installation Process For Starlink?

Whether you live in a rural area or city, Starlink promises to deliver high-speed internet, comparable to or even exceeding the speeds offered by traditional broadband and NBN providers. This can be advantageous for cities with high population densities, where traditional networks may face congestion issues during peak usage times.

But, what exactly is Starlink?

Starlink is a satellite internet service provided by SpaceX that has received a lot of attention due to its potential to provide high-speed internet access to remote and rural areas.

Starlink has the potential to be a good option for working from home in areas where internet connectivity is limited or unreliable. According to SpaceX, Starlink promises fast internet speeds ranging from 50Mbps to 150Mbps, with low latency, which means that it is well-suited for activities like video conferencing, online collaboration, and other work-related tasks that require a reliable and high-speed internet connection.

Although Starlink is sold as a DIY product it often requires professional installation. Especially since the only technical assistance available to customers through Starlink is an online portal – which isn’t much help if your internet isn’t working!

If you have purchased a Starlink Kit but don’t want to install it yourself, you can call on the experts at Jim’s Antennas. But, what exactly does the Jim’s Antennas Installation Process Involve?

Site Survey/Assessment

Your local technician will come to your home or business to provide an onsite, no obligation quote. When assessing your location our experienced technicians will carry out an obstruction test which determines the mounting location and height to receive the best possible signal.

Installation

We securely mount the Starlink satellite dish to the roof of the property (or other suitable location) and run cabling that connects the Starlink satellite dish to the router. We will create an interior outlet (if required) near where the new router is located. Our technicians will then help you set up your new internet connection and WiFi network, using the Starlink app. 

Assessment of Efficiency

Once complete, your Jim’s Antennas technician will run an internet speed test to check the download and upload speed, and to ensure that your new internet connection is fast and reliable. 


Only recently, Steve from Jim’s Antennas Heathmont had a customer who had an independent internet provider that was not satisfactory with working from home and school kids needs.
His customer wanted to upgraded their internet service and WiFi capabilities.


Steve installed their Starlink satellite, plus 2 Ruijie access points in the house. He installed the Ruijie RG-EST350 5GHz 15dBi Point-to-Point Wireless Bridge from the main house to their granny flat15m away with access point inside also. So, now the whole family can use the internet.
