@SpaceXStarlink Our neighbors down the road got Starlink 3 months ago. We’ve been on the waiting list since March 2021 and nothing about delivery. We are stuck with garbage HughesNet for 13 years and can’t get anything better. When is this coming to us?

This whole thread is pure misinformation. The government does NOT pay for Starlink launches. Starlink has better service than HughesNet or ViaSat because it doesn't have m***ive latency, etc. I get hating on Musk, especially now, but outright lies are not the way to do it.

@flexghost1 Viasat and Hughesnet is only 15-20 Mbps down and has a data cap of 12 GB, about a days worth of use for a household. The latency is so bad that it can't maintain a VPN connection.

@elonmusk @SpaceXStarlink OMG!! I got my starlink today and after a small issue. I went from 25Mbps with Hughesnet and only 75GB of data a month to over 100Mbps and unlimited with Starlink at literally 1/2 the cost. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!

@flexghost1 How much has HughesNet paid you for this? Or are you just a hack spewing BS? In real life HughesNet gets much less than 5m down on a good day. Much less than 1m up. Typical 200ms ping. Any terrestrial internet is cheaper and faster but not available everywhere in the USA.

@POTUS Also, look into how @HughesNet was working lightning fast out here in rural Ohio during the height of the pandemic shutdown.then went back to snails pace when the shut down ended😒 maybe it isn't being rural that's an issue but the speed we are shortened because we live rural 😤

@B1tSmurf Truly amazing, before we had AT&T here the only option was HughesNet, the download/upload wasn't a problem but the ping was 700-1,000ms! It was unusable for even an SSH session to a server so I had to go to the library or coffee shop every day to work.

@aloralex @dpatrikarakos @FionaMullenCY @elonmusk Satellite broadband that Starlink is providing can be provided by OneWeb,HughesNet,Eutelsat, Viasat etc. Some of those services are more mature. There was no competition to award the contract for Ukr. Have NO problem Starlink doing it but it was US tax dollars not Musk generosity

@NotDaveJohnson I wonder if there was an outage? I was working and Starlink went out. I will have little blips but not like this. Since ours is still sitting out in the middle of the yard and our mount still has not arrived, we still have HughesNet. So I switched over and it felt so slow!
