Starlink

[grsthegreat]

I plan on keeping my gen3 starlink after fiber heats up. Put it on standy mode just incase. The fiber co called me yesterday and asked if wanted my fiber ru to the house and placed online this week, but since ground is frozen it would have to run above ground temp.

I cant run aboveground due to driveway. Dang.

Will have to wait another month or so. Supposed to be in the 50°f next week

That's a nice upgrade. I always thought it was unfortunate that it required extra adapters to run/keep your own wifi network

It never required additional components. The built-in just wasn't stellar. All depends on your location situation.

No. The cables are different. The default gen 3 cable is a little shorter, but there is a longer one as an option. Personally, the gen 3 are closer to industry standard cables, so I like it a bit better.

Redoing the cable wasn't pretty here either, but the increase in performance was great.

All the best, Peter

I had to replace the cable with my swap from Gen 1 round dish to the Gen 3. No other way around that since the Gen 1 cable was fixed inside the dish. But the performance difference with the Gen 3 was worth having to spend time re-doing the cable through the walls and along the roof.
