Will tell you if it's back reporting Ireland or not. I'm using my backup 4g modem for TV this evening. Was considering cancelling it last month as Starlink has been so reliable up to now! Had it since August 21 and it's been fantastic.

When I do this on my PC it tells me SpaceX Dublin and speedtest uses Irish servers but speedtest on my phone goes to Kyiv.

Also https://whatismyipaddress.com/ and https://www.whatismyip.com/ give different results, the first Dublin, the second Kyiv

I wouldn't have minded but our work use their own VPN and are quite security fussy. I expect it they seen I was connected from eastern Europe might throw up a flag or two

Best I've got is around 25 but generally under 20

I just ran three speedtests in a row. The first one briefly blew past 300Mbps, before settling back. All of them have slightly better upload speed than I had previously experienced.

I'm just coming up on one year with Starlink and upload speeds 12 months ago were definitely in the low/mid teens at that stage, so it seems that there has been gradual improvement taking place, where mid to late 20's seems to be normal now.

It's amazing that when something "just works", it fades into the background and you almost forget about it. I can't remember when I had a complaint at home about "the broadband not working"!

First thing to do is check with the starlink app on your phone for any outages and obstructions.

have starlink a year. No problems with zoom teams webex. Have a problem with my companies VPN. My wired setup doesn’t like it if I go wireless then there is no problem. It’s my setup more than starlink though.

Your possibly mad to buy mounts from Starlink because there are much cheaper options. The version that is available as a refurb is the same as the one you purchase the V2. I don' think you can get the older V1 versions of Dishy anymore. In the US they are onto Dishy V3 but its not here yet.

Cables for the V2 are available in various lengths from Starlink think you get a 50ft one with Dishy as standard.

Check https://shop.starlink.com/ for whats available.

If you check Amazon you'll see you can get cables etc but the ethernet adapter is cheaper direct from starlink.

As I've just pointed out in my edit above Amazon have the ethernet adaptor but its cheaper direct from Starlink. Cables seem to be cheaper on Amazo but you might end up with quality issues. There are also a few PoA adaptors available so you can do away with the main Starlink WiFi box but so far reviews don't seem very favorable.

Have any of you guys setup with a deco mesh network? How have you found it and which model did you go with?

Do you need an ethernet adapter?

I've been running my Starlink setup for over a year with a mixed system (three Deco M9 and one M5). My Sky primary and secondary boxes run over this network too. I have the ethernet adaptor running to a tp-link network switch connected to the first M9 Deco and the Sky box. After that, each Deco runs via a mesh network. The house has hollowcore concrete floor slabs, so it took a while to find the "sweet spot" for each of the deco units to get good overall house coverage.

Thats very interesting. Been on SL 8 months now using IPTV and never got a message like that. Any time I download any torrent I put on a VPN.

I'm using Private Internet Access and they always have large discount codes on topcashback.co.uk. I think there is a recent thread on boards about it but I can't find it now.
