Pasayten's Methow Valley Bulletin Board

Installed Starlink... Got the new generation rectangular antenna and outside router...

Just hooked up... Likes northern sky which is perfect for us... 120 MBps... WOW!!! Over 10 times faster than methownet.

Got an email that my Starlink "kit" is shipped... I expect to get it in about 7 days... Then the tests can begin... Methownet has seemed to be slow at finding/switchung/loading pages recently... Don't know what is causing that... Maybe domain name server issues. I will surely be testing that also...

Just got a notice that my Starlink order request has finally been processed! I submitted it in July 2021 and was told not to expect action until 4th quarter 2022... Equipment is still $500... I currently have methownet... I plan on running both systems for about 3 months for testing speed, functionality, and reliability... Will report all results here.
