Probably a good idea if you have a camping site or a lodge somewhere in Wakanda or Kapedo and dont mind dropping 100K setup cost and charging customers more per night just coz you have FREE WIFI on your package.
Correction 200MBPS is good for game downloads where modern games are like 50 GB plus, but actually playing online games relies on LATENCY (how long does information take to get to the service and back to you) REALTIME COMMUNICATION DEPENDS ON THIS AS WELL ,SO if star link latency is just too high then it's not a good pick for online gamers like myself
Good stuff Dickens. I am impressed by the 'dumbed down' explanation that has simplified this whole starlink story 😂 You truly have come a long way from way back tukiwa EBL KTL. I am proud of you 👊🏽
Rickdeeeeeees! Long time man! Hahaa you made me love tech during those days, too bad I didnt pursue it in school... But I remember the Nokia N95 etc... Good old days! Hope youre keeping well though, Thanks!
That is a great idea, but first you have to make sure that, they have built a bas station near you rural area. What I mean is that, it's not like you're directly getting a one to one connection with the satellite. By my knowledge they have to have built a ground base station to receive the data and send that same data to the base station so that it can read your data and resend it back to you. So you have to do some research before purchasing it.
Another advantage i see is portability, so long as there is a source of power, for example, you can carry the hardware to your rural area and access the speeds same as urban areas.
playing online games depends on ping and jitter which is quite high as they have said so it wont be a pleasant experience untill they improve on this..dont buy this if u are a streamer or a online gamer🤝
Buda your videos are exceptionally informative .....made this concept easy to understand....keep up the good work..how's the practice after graduation?
you haven't mentioned one thing when it's windy or it's raining the internet speed will be so poor that you can't watch 144p videos I am using wired internet and its 89mbps and I pay 800ksh my upload speed is more than 20mbps I can upload 20GB for just 6 to 8hrs but Starlink will take 3 to 4days
You missed out the ground station in your drawing. Starlink does need a ground station to operate, but the signal can bounce around between satellites before it has to pass through a ground station. Currently only 2 in Africa in Nigeria.
Is starlnk preferable when it comes to Internet service providers.... Like can it be advisable to be used to provide WiFi to tenants... What's your take on that?
Their terms of service dont allow reselling your connection, but I doubt you can be blocked from sharing your wifi password for example, only that speeds will reduce the more people use it.
I saw a mzungu techie youtuber from central kenya review it. it wasnt all that. unless you live in a very remote part of the country, stick to 5g. its faster, more reliable and cheaper. but if you are stationed in mandera, its alright
main reason our kenyan brothers are way ahead of us in terms of tech .. i have been trying to bring starlink to my country but guy! the bureaucracy cheeii!!
I was happy for this but now NOT happy after going through the comments, excellent download speeds yes, mobility is a PLUS but PING is equally important for me since I do online gaming. Would still be great for my home in shags though. Another Point I was wondering was can we resell the Internet??
It's good but not as good as Fiber Optic internet, for me they have come a little bit to late in my opinion...might as well stick to the the faster option.
I love your explanation bro.. Although i have to ask, there was a time when it was being said that it would cost 110$ per month,and in this video they have shown 6500. Have they stated any reason for the decrease in price?
Pardon the late reply. In other markets they impose a speed throttle down (not a data amount cap) when the network is congested, not yet heard about that in Kenya.
Even our media will not do a great explanation of this thing. Your video is very informative.
Thanks!
The simple explanation that we all need to learn. Thanks for this.
Welcome, and thanks.
I watched the entire 13 Min without getting bored which means you know what you are talking about n complete with the drawings, I am subbed!!

Agreed

Very true!
Intelligent observation. Starlink favours well-off businesses and homes in rural homes.
I have been waiting for this video so much. Great one as always
There you go! Thanks.
Can't believe CZcams recommended your channel today I wish this algorithm did this earlier such great content from Kenya
Glad you enjoy it!

True. Most testers have reported pings of around 50ms, which is not too bad for gaming, though not perfect.
@@Dkens in africa 50mbps is too good
@@Dkens 50ms is not perfect but it is great, i usually get 70-90ms🥲😂
50 ms is too fast
@@coolflame8846 sure. It ranges though... From down to 20 to past 100.
Great and quality tech updates as always. 🎉

You deserve over 100k subscribers
Thanks! Will get there someday!
Dickenns, you're such a brilliant mind! Thank you so much for all you share on CZcams!
I always feel usefully smarter after watching your content.
My pleasure! Thanks for watching!
this will benefit my Rugby team in Rusinga Island
yeah that's a good use case
You got a new subscriber, great content, really enjoyed this.
Welcome, thanks!
Your diagrams are well drawn and the explanation is spot on
Thanks!
Thanks to the youtube algorithm for coming through with this channel
Welcome!
Starlink = Dstv for bundles. Awesome presentation
Nice summary. Thanks!
Thank you. I have understood it better and will undoubtedly get it
Great! Hope you enjoy it.
I love this guy. He explains things perfectly.
Welcome!
A year ago it was selling at 100k now around 40k,next year I'm buying it at 10k😅
Correction: we don’t usually use Satellites for internet. We use deep sea Fibre cables.
True, I was just giving an example of conventional satellites, didn't mean that that is what we mainly use.
You just got a new follower! This is top notch explanation ul
Thanks and welcome!
am interested in Starlink for my rural home, currently paying safcom 4k for 1mbs via their 4g routers. there is no comparison there
That will be a very suitable use case. Otherwise hope you've been good doc!

4k for 1mbs?? holy cow, where is your rural home?? lodwar?
@@TheJayairI think that was the previous satellite communication model. Not starliknk.
Sure. Starlink does not use base stations.
are you a network engineer bruh, coz that was excellent, my profession.......who else had no idea about starlink😄😄😄😄
Hahaha Im nothing close to that, but thanks!
@@Dkens okay nice

Am sure those who owns iPhone 13,14,15 pros can buy Starlink whenever they feel like. Any let me keep quiet with my 6mpbs at ksh1,500.
hehee, very true. As long as you're comfortable, enjoy!
Amazing content bruh,Star link are a game changer

Thats good for you... You wouldn't need starlink, but there are people who will. True, weather is a factor for starlink.
Which one are you using?
is it just me or the Twitter image looks more like a satellite than the satellite drawing itself. anyway, great video.
Thanks, lol, I know!
manz taught the whole of data communication in 4 minutes
Haha, thanks.. hope its helpful

Thanks for the info!
Is starlnk preferable when it comes to Internet service providers.... Like can it be advisable to be used to provide WiFi to tenants... What's your take on that?
Check on terms of service since that would mean you will push more traffic
Their terms of service dont allow reselling your connection, but I doubt you can be blocked from sharing your wifi password for example, only that speeds will reduce the more people use it.
@@leonmuyeguahori7666 understood

True, not unless you consume so much data, at which point 5g becomes unviable.
You are good in explaining
Thanks a lot 😊
Great video thanks for the elaboration
Thanks and welcome!
main reason our kenyan brothers are way ahead of us in terms of tech .. i have been trying to bring starlink to my country but guy! the bureaucracy cheeii!!
Bureaucracy can really get in the way of development!
Hey man, great video. One thing I want to know is if it'll be affected by rain like DSTv.
Thanks. I didnt mention it but yes, weather affects it.
Great explanation. Tuambieko juu ya WorldCoin kabla tuuze macho bwana!! 😅

Their TOS doesn't allow reselling, not unless you just share your internet somehow. Otherwise reported pings range from 20 to 100ms... Not too bad.
Well explained. Does FSK mean something to you? If so,💪.
Haha thanks! Most definitely... I was there... and I guess you too.
let me use fiber ..this thing is damn expensive.. fiber is only 5k installation and 2k monthly
Sure if you can access fiber, its way cheaper to get
Rural access? But how many rural forks need or can afford starlink?
Only the ones with big monies lol
You are actually a very good artist,
Haha thanks!
First time here. Great information bro
Glad you liked it
simple and amazing explanation
Glad you think so!
Congrats. Waiting for license in UG
Thanks, all the best!
Totally love the video. Do you fo your own filming and editing as well?
I do!
we are waiting for a video as u set it up and test it.
Still trying to convince myself that I can drop the big monies... But let's see 😂
It will be worth it
theres a dude in central kenya who bought it months ago
The next video shows us how to order
Hopefully that might come.
Nice content..That Rocket joke though😂
Thanks, 😂😂
260 mbbs can I share it with my neighbour if I have a cable to distribute it am living in bungalows that are in one compound
You possibly can
It's good but not as good as Fiber Optic internet, for me they have come a little bit to late in my opinion...might as well stick to the the faster option.
Fiber is better for most uses, especially if you can access it.
how about in Tanznia it's work?
Not sure
Beside the symmetrical download and upload speeds, You haven't mentioned the 'latency'. Very important.
Sure I didn't, but many reviewers have reported around 50-100ms
Buda i like your content
Thanks!
any one using star link in western Kenya ,kakamega share your experince
Dickens is an educator, not just a doctor.
Humbled! Thanks for watching
Just googled , Kumbe Dickens ni Othorpaedic surgeon 🫢 eeh we should know pple 😂... Great info Dickens, wacha kwanza i subscribe for more tech updates
You've got no business getting this thing if you live in urban areas served by other ISPs considering initial cost and upload speeds.
True.
Iko very expensive. 240 $ a month. Many kenyans cannot afford it. Lakini iko very fast 5g network.
Costs 6500 per month
I here the main problem with starlink is the set up cost
How much is it
Yeah the initial cost is quite high. But once you buy it you dont have to pay anyone to set it up for you.
Good 👍 Content
well articulated
Thanks!
very enjoyable videos btw😆
Glad you like them!
Can i get this and spread internet to my neighbors at a fee
Reselling is against their terms of service... though Im sure some Kenyans will do that lol
And currently twitter new name is X
Sure.
How much is 100000 Kenya money in USD
About 700 usd
I love your explanation bro.. Although i have to ask, there was a time when it was being said that it would cost 110$ per month,and in this video they have shown 6500. Have they stated any reason for the decrease in price?
Thanks, Their prices usually vary per region, I guess they price it accoeding to the local purchasing power.
@@Dkens oh. Alright. Thanks 👍
Can you share with neighbours! Or sell for that matter
I think its against their terms of service to share a connection, but on the other hand you can always just share your wifi, lol
In Sudan, our internet is severely restricted. The government controls the internet. We are now ordering via SPEAEX internet.
Very unfortunate!
Price
Its in the video.
Nice 👍
Thanks
Competition is also good for the end consumer and force more innovation from Safcom, Airtel etc
Very true.
Good one 👍
Thanks
You should be getting tech ads by now 🙏. Is there a link we can vote for the best tech channels?
Haha, I wish there was one. But thanks!
This content is worthy 😊😊
Thanks!
I think starlink is also cheaper in the long run
Possibly...
Thanks for keeping it simple.😃
My pleasure 😊
well explained
Thanks!
Give your reviews of its performance
Hope to do it someday soon
Zuku must be cursing!
Hehe... Many people won't afford starlink.
@@Dkens I agree.
Is the 100k initial cost for individual users only or companies will also spend a similar amount?
@@reine924 theres even more expensive packages that companies could opt for.
now my average question is, why is kenya involved in this starlink community
The goal is to get the whole world on board, seems like Kenya is among the first countries in Africa
You have architectural visualization potential kaka 😂 medicine ikikauka you know where to find me
Really 😂? Thanks!
No monthly payment for the rest of one's life?
hapo pa lower latancy i dont think starlink will provide. Good content lakini.
Reviewers in other countries have reported quite good latencies, but we'll wait and see.
Great content thanks
Very welcome
100k and after I will continue paying 6,000 per month and you say is not expensive
My orthopaedic surgeons😂😂 you can't believe it😂
Oh, really? haha
What items are in your set up? Camera, mic, etc
Check video description
Great video with nice humour
Glad you enjoyed it
Curious.
Is there a FUP on starlink? Any capping on data? Like 200gb per month ama these guys are unlimited FR FR?
Pardon the late reply. In other markets they impose a speed throttle down (not a data amount cap) when the network is congested, not yet heard about that in Kenya.
Can I supply to a remote institute college
