Starlink Is Popular In Regional Areas For A Good Reason…..

People in areas that have been un-serviced and forgotten about in the regional/semi-regional areas by NBN.

If you live in a regional or remote area and don’t have access to NBN, you would be used to having unreliable internet that drops in and out and is frustratingly slow.

Thankfully there is a solution that you may have already heard about and that’s Starlink. There is definitely a hype for this product and for good reason. Starlink, developed by Elon Musk, is the world’s first and largest satellite constellation using low Earth orbit satellites to deliver broadband internet capable of supporting streaming, online gaming, video calls and more.


Compared to other internet providers, Starlink can offer a much lower latency compared to traditional satellites, as they have been able to launch a number of satellites orbiting the earth at approximately 550km.  Whereas, traditional satellite internet have used fewer satellites, orbiting at a much further distance of over 38,000km. As wireless signal is limited to the speed of light, this has left traditional services with a latency of over 600ms. 


If you have already purchased your D.I.Y Kit or would like to, but don’t know how to install it, don’t risk damaging your expensive kit, instead call on the professionals at Jim’s Antennas. Our team are experienced at installing Starlink. Just take a look at some of the pictures below from jobs that Steve from Jim’s Antennas Heathmont has done for customers who live in regional (to semi-regional) areas.
