@@Daniela-pr7rz that's viable
Something to consider is that apparently in the first 12 hours of connection, it's still determining the best possible connection for you to the starlink network and your initial speeds can vary a great deal but once fully sync'd with the starlink network, you (in theory) should not see those delays barring extreme or inclement weather conditions
Yea I literally JUST set mine up and got worried about the speeds.
But it has been getting better over the past few hours.
Thank you for confirming
I have Starlink in rural Puerto Rico and I can honestly say it has been life changing. My family has had a challenge getting good internet connection to our area (mainly due to lazy ISP who basically have a monopoly/duopoly in PR). As soon as pre-orders went live, I pre-ordered, then converting that into the official order around 7 months later.
I receive upwards of 125 Mbps and it has changed so much in our lives, that it was actually a little emotional at first (just due to all the fighting and struggles in regards to getting connection at all for working and education). Funny enough, a month after getting Starlink, guess who would call, offering to install internet since "it is now available in our area".......needless to say, out of principle, I told them to shove it (plus, the speeds and all were way lower than what Starlink is giving).
I'm from Puerto rico tooo and I've been lookin for a better internet but where I'm at its horrible to find the right 1( im in culebra btw) and i just wanted to aks how good is the upload speed and downloads, I've been debating on buying this.
@@LaggyW right now, I have a full mesh system running through the house and an outdoor range extender. I get around 150-200 download and 50-70 upload. It's truly amazing
I’m moving to rural area near Cidra soon and the only provider accessible in that area was apparently HughesNet.
You say Starlink is viable option?
@@Jowurel Viable is an understatement. We just had a hurricane and Starlink never had outages (every other ISP here did)
@@Justin3Santiago Sounds good to me. Liberty outage started Monday morning, came back two nights ago. Internet where I am atm peaks at 280mb and I’m dreading having to move to rural Cidra losing that internet speed. Might check out Starlink. Thanks for the recommendation
"it's slower but its's usable" - cool, still faster than my internet connection. Like three times. Cool.
But is it worth $100/month to you?
@@TacticalBytes553 you’re not owed unlimited data.
@@clydemarshall8095 fuck yeah, we pay over 100 for 150ms with 7.5 mbps. It’s fucking horrible.

"You're gonna notice 27ms ping"
Me, who used to play with 200ms ping: "Yeah, notice how much better it is"
We just got our Beta for starlink ordered yesterday. Gaming on cellular hotspots at 100-300ms ping. I know the feels lol
I know! Literally his ping is 2x or more faster than mine and he’s complaining haha, multiplayer FPS is still playable...
@@Tdawgthegreat how much was it?
nvm its $500 for starter kit
I can't notice 27ms ping. But I only get that if I game on a server further away. Normally I'm on under 10ms ping if the game has servers in the UK.
Linus needs to do a 12month review of starlink and see if it has improved since last video. spaceX has had multiple deployments of the satellite since then
It has gotten better, though the V2 sats have not begun launching. It seems the FAA is about to approve of Starship launches from Texas, which SpaceX needs to launch the heavier V2s. The current sats with laser links the Linus mentioned first launching in the rideshare are V1.5s
Soooo, whats gonna happen with the sattelites once they are decomissioned. Didnt Musk want to send tens of thousands of sattelites up into orbit?
As older 1z get decommissioned the v2 versions will replace them
@@nicoderfeuerloscher1684 They're designed to slowly deorbit over time. So as they get disabled or made obsolete they will eventually deorbit and just get disintegrated by the atmosphere
220 download and 8 upload right now.
I've had a starlink for about a year now. It's significantly improved over time and I can comfortably play e-sports titles on it without really noticing any hitches these days.
I just got mine a week ago. I actually play csgo and this is a game where bad latency will definitely screw you over. My ping is about 100-110 which isn't very good for gaming

@@DakinRinone It's all been awful though. You could hardly consider any of the existing options to be legitimately viable.
I used to have 4 mbs a second internet this is an incredible improvement over what I used to have though it occasionally has ping spikes when there is a gap in the satellites.
i work for one of the 2 big providers of satellite internet as a technician, honestly im going to enjoy watching them both be driven into the ground by Starlink...they absolutely deserve it Viasat and Hughesnet are shit companies that lie and prey on people in rural areas. I only wish starlink had techs and not self installs...I'd work for them anytime.

"Consistency of ping is in some ways more important to the experience than the actual ping number."
My ISP: "Nah bruh 200ms jitter with 10% packetloss isn't an issue."
Honestly though. I do a lot of gaming over cellular (truck driver) and I have had better experiences when it’s constant 130ms in CODCW versus 50-60ms and spiking frequently.

@TsunamiFPS I have 10mb contracted but only received 5mb on nights if everyone is sleeping, with ramdom disconnections, and they know that they are overwhelmed but still calling for "new speed deals" very calmly I told them to stop calling (I know that the poor guy in the other phone isn't fault), I would make my town move to Starlink when it comes.
Aw. Right k. Keep it to yourself next time.
My parents just got starlink where only Hughes net was available before and now they're getting around 90 Mbps down 25 up and 12 ms latency was able to stream Disney plus in 4k so I was thoroughly impressed with starlink
I've had Starlink in the UK Devon since December 2021 and I love it!!! I'm usually hitting around 70-120 Mbs compared to my fibre connections which never goes above 50Mbs. I have two links as both my wife and I work from home so having Starlink as our Primary connection and fibre as our backup and for all our smart home devices works out like a charm. BTW, I run two Mesh networks, TPLINK Deco 20 on Starlink and Google/NEST on our BT Fibre.
I live in cornwall and am thinking of getting it, the technology has improved greatly since this video and where i live i cant get fibre.

"27 ping is still usable"I'm sitting here glad if i have a ping of a 100 lol
I dominate in apex legends using 180ms ping, I can't even imagine how epic my experience will be once starlink is available worldwide
3 ping here in the Netherlands
Bro lucky you got yours down to 100!
Same. I usually get like 150-300 depending on the game. 😂
Lol im happy playing at 150 ping. Hell 200 is playable for me.
"worse latency than with a terrestrial connection"
me with spectrum: 64 ping would be nice idk
Non gaming stuff would be good
i literally have 78ms and i was like "Yhea Starlink have a lot of latency yea"
Less than 100 ping would be nice (I'm in India wi-fi is pretty bad and very unreliable)
even on fios i get ~30ms
In iran if you are lucky enough u can get 130ms with fastest adsl
Once there are more satellites are up, this will be great for people on sailboats, at sea.
Yeah via sat needs 3 sats for the whole eart elon musk needs 42k sats... Which will increase the actual sat count in orbit from 6.5k to 48.5k just for inet.. If anyone think thats a good idea or even reasonable the should be send to a mental asylum. Also 42k sats will defenetly look cool in the nightsky.. .. Not. But guess most of big city peeps never saw the milky way or even stars at night so they dont care at all nore do they care about the waste this sats will create because they have to be replaced every 5years according to musk... Its also mindbaffeling that goverments accept such a pollution of our orbit at all, for inet keks
im a traveling nurse and i live out of an rv. i actually ended up getting starlink because of this video and its great. i can easily hook it up on top of the rv and then when i need to travel its as simple as unplugging it and putting it up... and i can still game with my friends while im away.

Remember that starlinks performance will drop in bad weather too, but it hopefully wont cut out tho

whats a pole drop linus was on about ?
My friend lives out of the city in the country and broadband internet is one house down but they won't come out to service him even for any amount of money. He got Starlink and I've been over to his house and it is actually very good and only getting better with all the satellite launches.
I was lucky enough to be one of the first in the UK to get Starlink. I've had it since March 2021 and can only say its definitely a game changer.....House speeds are around 20mbs and garbage when the kids and all their gadgets are connected. With starlink I get anywhere between 50-350 mbs download speeds. I can even livestream gaming over the connection as its extremely stable.

"27 ping is not great"
In South Africa we game on 180-200 ping on a good day!
Ikr, I never even achieved 27ms on a game, not even close. My best is just around 100ms with asian server (yes, i live in asia), let alone playing on NA server with 400-1000ms lol
gaming latency won't be 27. 27 is the travel time alone, but in games your CPU/GPU processing time as well as that of the server's add a lot more latency than in a normal ping test. When I was in Dallas on fiber I'd sometimes get 60s-100s ping times in games on local servers whereas I'd get only 2-5ms in normal ping tests or when the game server has a low load. In other words, netcode + hardware will make it worse. But 27 is a reasonable travel time globally speaking
That's awful! I've lived in Tunisia and get better internet there than I do in America. I watch CZcams at 240p in America and 1080p in Tunisia.
Depends on what servers you play on I guess. I currently have 20mbps fiber (Safricom), and I get 5 ping on CSGO and 10 on R6S. When playing Dota Ranked I get about 180-190 ping.
I get 89 ping on my phone hotspot
Have had Starlink for a while and it has its problems. Let’s start with the goods though. The speeds are way better the what we had before, and it has better pricing. Time for the main downsides (for me) when it was first set up we experienced no internet for a minute every hour due to obstructions because my area is surrounded by trees and I wasn’t able to get on the roof at the time. During thunder storms the internet goes out. When gaming ping is around 200 to 30 depending on the game.
Have you noticed any cats sleeping on the dish
Linus' segues will always be the best. I keep using his tactics in conversation and so far nobody has noticed. Although I now have a fine lady, a business, a blind dog and a crazy ass cat. Linus has most definitely helped change my life, all with his segues. 😆🤙🏾

You have to remember that if you live in a remote area in a small village, you can share the costs with your neighbors.
I guess splitting those ~130Mbps between few people is still better than what they have now. So yeah, this is good.

You can just buy a switch and split those speeds evenly so no one will watch 4 4K vids. You can be a small ISP at this point.
@@assetaden6662 there was a video similar to this idea where a dad moved towards the coast, but the internet there was garbage so he south the nearest fiber line, ran it into his house, split the bandwidth and shared with his neighbor for much cheaper than what they're paying, or to have internet at all

I tell you what, I’ve been paying $140 for NBN broadband in Aus with a 100gb Datacap. This Starlink was a game changer for the rural area I am in. At a $139 with UNLIMITED INTERNET, I am in heaven , plus with download speeds of 175~ 300 compared to 25gb ~ 33gb, a lot of people that don’t live in rural areas may not know how significant this is. I love this
I finally convinced my parents to upgrade our old DSL at 12Mbps down to Comcast at 100Mbps two years ago. Since it was only a little more $ than our phone/internet plan at the time and also came with basic cable. That jump almost 10x in speed was amazing. Though in both cases my latency in the midwest has always been 70-100 in games since I usually have to use game servers on the east or west coast. But our data cap of 1200 GB per month has been an issue a few times, and that's with me being mindful of how much I'm downloading. I was actually finally just considering getting RDR2 since I just upgraded my PC last month but being 150 GB is making me hold off, at least until the end of the month. My parents don't really care about the cable TV, but they're still very attached to having a landline. But I wonder if I can get them to switch to Starlink if I pay that initial hardware cost.

It’s not phenomenal and will only get worse as more and more users get on it.

i live near one of the airforce bases where they launch the starlink rockets, ive seen like 5 in the past few months. very cool stuff
Whats funny is even those of us with high speed land based connections can still experience sustained high ping situations if the server we want is on the other side of the planet. It's inevitable that your connection to that server may go through a legacy communications satellite sitting at a much higher geosync orbit. Usually happens if routing sees it's a shorter route than using a trans-oceanic cable.

@@Thekillerslim yeah I mean at this point I pay $40 for 100Mb/s with no cap.
@@Thekillerslim thats so awesome you laugh at other people's lack of options. If we want to play that game, I laugh at my huge ass house with lots of acreage for 300% less in price because I live rural. Yeah I pay more for Starlink but pay hundreds of thousands of dollars less(with 10 times the land) for the same type of house that exists in the city. Math does suck sometimes.
@@Thekillerslim you are very lucky .. feeling bad too with my country internet provider. no fibre internet yet after a decade. huhuhu
Just got it. I’m getting like 100-200 mbps during the day. Ping and gaming is great. Rarely ever drops out - less than my LTE service even. It’s amazing.
This is going to change my life, out here on a ranch with terrible internet I'm on the beta list and cant wait!!!
As an Australian this is probably better than our internet
Edit: damn 2k likes that’s the most I’ve ever gotten
Linus: *Watching 4 4k videos simultaneously with video scrubbing*
Me, and Australian who lives in Brisbane City: *can barely play a single 1440p video without buffering every 10 seconds*
starlink is coming to australia very soon and im fucking excited no more 10kb down
bro i’m watching this in 360p
i put it to 480 and it starts to buffer
Yeh our internet is crap lel
*Laughs in unlimited 365kbps.

Thanks for the video!
Really suprised over the ping over SPACE.
Though, this topic I guess requires more time to spend and check,
As a IT Nomad this is a game changer. Love it!
3-5 times faster than my wired internet, and I live in a major city
Right.. I have 12mbps down 1mbps up :/
You get what you pay for

In UK in the late 90s while we were still on dial-up, our favourite gaming servers were Barry's World, and they had about 32 dial-up slots that if you joined really early in the evening, you could manage to snag one of them, otherwise you'd have to connect through your ISP. We'd play Q2 LMCTF and our ping was typically 8-12ms with 1 hop to the server. A VERY clean connection. People diss dial-up as what we had to put up with in the past, but the experience you'd get with a dial-up straight to your favourite game servers was every bit as good as broadband today. Maybe better as pings are now typically 30ms to everything. Even when I finally got on a 512kbps cable connection in 2000, my pings to Barry's World were still higher than that. Love my broadband though, just about to go 900Mbps in and out, uncapped. ;-)
i cant believe that starlink is faster than my fibre broadband.
It's made by Elon. What did you expect?
For now*
And it'll only get better
Then it gets covered in snice in the states that have bad winters and stop working
what kind of fiber is it though? FTTP with a straight fiber drop to your house, or FTTN where it's only from the node to the server, but the last mile is something else
In the future: bro sorry I disconnected my isp got hit by a meteorite
Yeah, lemme reset my rout....... Wait
while you ever their makin jokes this shit might actually be a real thing in 50 years lol
@@zetareticuli328 Try 10 maybe 15 years. This, if it is done right, will move in pretty fast.
Maybe we can get the ISP's to start offering better service or at least comparable service.
@@HoudiniFontmeister yeah I think that's a reasonable timeline too I just didnt want to sound overly optimistic
Replace "a meteorite" with "a piece of space junk", and it would be very plausible.
I went to visit my brother in college in 1999. At his apartment, he had 3Mbps Roadrunner cable internet. It was the first time I had ever used anything faster than dial-up. It blew my frickin' mind. It definitely doesn't hold up today but there was a time...
I would love a follow up video for this because Starlink has taken close to two years for people to even begin getting their kits. What are other rural internet options? I would love a video like that.
This is your best shot. Satellite internet is not unlimited besides starlinks service. I’m really considering getting starlink since I moved to a rural area.
Linus: "Its no bad, its usuable"
Me: "It looks faster than mine, thats for sure. Stupid ass internet on this island."
Im in a big place in the UK and thats better than my connection. Rip current crappy internet providers. Starlink is going to take over
@@Silverwidows not for everyone though. I'm in London and have a much better service. This thing would be a downgrade, yet more expensive.
@@ChrisKendallCK A physical connection (fibre or copper), will always better a wireless connection. Starlink is primarily for those who can’t even get a broadband connection at the moment.
im in the southwest and the only place that gets internet that good is my university internet. and it's not faster, just the same speed as starlink. at home i get 30mbps.
I tested it just after the video. Mine had 96ms, 3.5 mbps down and 0.67mbps up. :(
I just got my Starlink installed 2 days ago. I went from 1.5Mbps on a good day to 80-100Mbps average. It was absolutely mind blowing.
I wish I had enough money
@@amizagdanski252 Me too😭😭😭
@@amizagdanski252 I was gonna make a dark joke but CZcams is already on dark mode
About gaming? Is insane or same of fiber?
100 a month for 80mbps? I pay 34 for 360mbps
This is a game changer since my future home we are in the process of building is offgrid and cannot be put on grid unless I spend 4500 USD for them to run a line. I can also see using this on my vacations we take for 2 months out of the year.. cannot wait!
The best decision I’ve ever made. Was stuck for 2 years with literally 10 mbps at most. This is godly compared to anything else
Same but I’m trying to convince my mom to switch she pays the same price $100 for 9mbps and she complains at times that our local internet sucks
@@thereclineextremity2774 yeah dude I was so surprised. I rarely have issues with lag. And I’ve never had a stream buffer
Linus with 44-50ms of ping: "it's MANAGEABLE"
Me with 200ms of fiber connection:
How with fiber is it so high?
How? That's horrible for fibre...that's horrible for dial up. Did rats eat your fibre run?
Something is wrong, 200 is very high for fiber
Same 😂 on jio fiber
are you sure you installed fiber
or did someone scam you?
Starlink: *gets 60 ping*
Me with 370 ping playing minecraft: *cries in asian*
Yellow 🤣
Pldc or other shit in you're country lol same :/
They got 27 ping on starling
@@obazas 64 was on CSGO
starlink is supposed to eventually get better ping than ground connections, because most of the transmission is through air/space, which is 50% faster than through glass or wire. but that will require more of the satellites to be up and running so that the connections are more efficient
"now thats slower" me who has to sit and wait for a thumbnail to load: nice, good for you :)
In my town in Michigan, we’ve been waiting for fiber for like 5-7 years. Unfortunately we live like 15 feet outside of city limits. It sucks, wifi isn’t terrible but it’s not great. Love the South Park reference
I'm getting 2 down and .8 up from the only provider I can get. My Starlink kit was delivered last week, but I'm waiting on my roof mount. This is going to be a crazy massive change for me. I've always wanted to livestream, and now I'll have that chance.
2.7/.5 for 20 years. I've been waiting for this option for years. I pay 33 bucks for trash internet.
i dont think you can stream on 8 mp upload
@@user-sl4ul4nc3t one way streaming doesn't suffer due to increased buffer. The server has no idea how long the packets took if using a UDP protocol. As long as jitter isn't too bad I think they'll be fine
@@wdkpwr6586 It isn't 8. Where did you get that number?
biggest problem with having many satellites, are space junk, space debris... you dont know, but there are millions of space rocks that hit earth's atmosphere and evaporates... but they dont get pulverised in space, as they will damage satellites...
Linus: "I wanna get a headshot from space!"
CSGO players: "Happy to oblige" *headshots Linus*
Good luck with the latency and inconsistency. It looks like it looses connection, or at least drops speeds significantly, every time and again
@@steven_mkn for a while, it's a beta service, they need thousands more starlink in the space to take it out of beta.
@@FallenLight0 yes, I do believe it'll get better in future
@@steven_mkn Then what exactly was the point of your first comment? Obviously there's not enough satellites yet in space for the 'consistent' speed of the internet.
@@GuardianTiger weird right

As a former Seafarer, this is a dream come true! Being stuck for months on a vessel and only able to call your loved ones every week or so sucks hard! But this, this might change a whole branch!
This is a massive deal for SO many things, it's incredible. Every industry that happens away from built-up areas is gonna benefit massively from this. Not to mention disaster relief. The effort it takes just to set up stable communications after something like an earthquake or a hurricane is immense. With this rolled out, drop a few Starlink kits and a few small generators and you're set to go.
@@Killerpixel11 Oh yes, definitely! I am already baffled about what it will have done in like 10 years...
My only concern is still the amount of thrash it could add to our near-earth orbits...
I don't think it would work well on a boat. whatever it is placed on has to be completely stable. Any tiny amount of movement or rocking will throw off the tracking.
@@Scrubti Well, if they stick to the plan and properly deorbit the things when they're dead, it shouldn't be a big problem. As long as they're active, they're not a problem, because they're tracked and easily predictable. And they're in quite low earth orbit, so their orbital duration without correction burns is limited. Even if one fails, it's orbit will decay soon enough to not be a huge issue. Stuff floating in higher planes is a way bigger issue.
Not to mention the chinese blowing up their own damn satellites for the lols. That alone created a debris field that Starlink wouldn't be able to produce in a decade.
@@rubiconnn If it's important or worth it to the crew, it could be gimbaled. Expensive, but doable.
"Yo there is a meteor passing by my ping is gonna go up"
hahahaha cant wait, I'm in Australia and get 80 ping to Sydney, the only place where servers get hosted basically.. maybe 4Mbit avg for gaming connection tweaked, 5mbit for downloading. Been waiting since the 90's. Yeah 28.8k modem, playing Quake with 250 ping, good times ._.
czcams.com/video/rddTXl_7Wr8/video.html satellite pattern stuff :D
its beautiful.. i remember seeing 650 ping expectation on NBN Australia satellite LOL.. star.link taught me why, about 60x closer to Earth helps aye.. haha and the tech is sick.
We are so lucky
I would be more concerned about the meteor that made it below LEO.
@@wta1518 LOL
I just sh*ted my self 😂
That would be no meteor, it's mothership picking up Elon Musk go back to his home planet 🙄
I live on a farm running off of towers we always have to turn out dishes for different towers everyday so we can get proper connection. I just got the kit and hopefully can get it soon and hopefully it doesn't freeze over too easily.
Moved from Boston MA to Douglas MA. Been waiting 10 months for spectrum to install internet. Was originally no problem to install, then next month, then 6 months now another 3 months. Thank God for cell phones and wire adapters but yeah this is looking good as another source of internet, thank you tesla man.
This could give hopes and dreams to the people who are behind a restricted Net as well.

@@gradygilchrist4923 how I understand it is that question heavily depends on what your ordering

@@MARKOUTTV you could access the sites but they still need to ship it to your location. With some locations a lot of sites simply don't ship there
@@goldie6961 ment ordering the starlink itself?
When Mcdonald public wifi has a higher connection speed than most people in the comment section
Meanwhile our Macdonalds that doesn't even have public wifi
Ordered mine yesterday.. we pay about $57 a month for 24mb/s… down 5 up, with about 40ms ping.. when it’s working.. a lot of the day or whenever more than one person wants to take online the lag is so bad we average a red X.. so for $40 more it very excited to get mine!
This gives me so much hope; I someday want to be able to afford buying 10 acres in the middle of nowhere in natural spaces that don't have coverage and/or are (rightfully) barred from utility installations, but also continue working remote and online gaming. Mayhap by the 5-10 years it will take me to have the funds to do that, this type of service will be reliable and available!!!
