The residential plan is 139 a month. Probably NBN cheaper.Quote:

So roam is $80 for 100gb, or 195 unlimited.
Once you have a starlink they ask for $9 a month for standby.
Not sure how your “congestion” is over there - if it’s high SL will want to charge more.Quote:

For most people the Std will do, if you have LOTs of devices and stream on several simultaneously then Plus is suitable.
At the moment they will give you a mini as well so you can have a roaming set up.
Where I am I can only get the Residential Max plan, with the $234 surcharge. This includes a free mini but not a plan to go with it. It’s a good plan but more than I can really afford. I can’t get the $69 plan which would be perfect for me for now. But the prices keep coming down. Maybe.
So I learnt something new. There are different plans for MINI/normal. Actually maybe I knew that but either way.
How does it work if you have just one dish? Like a home one but what if you travel sometimes?
Yesterday at my place my son's fancy folding mobile phone on a Telstra a/c switched to satellite when it couldn't get reception.

Even that on its own is an amazing leap in technology when you think about it.Quote:
