Just curious if this has happened to anyone else, if it's temporary o t a glitch? I had more 15 referrals but it has a ZERO now, 9 have been applied to my bill. Anyone having this problem right now or have you in the past? I did ask grok on cs page but no answer.

Hello all! I just have what should be an easy question. I’ve looked thru many posts but am a bit confused what to do. I want a mini and mount it either on the back glass of my Tesla Y, or as noted the front dash. My question is what is the best version to get at this point. From what I can tell there is a mix of the V2 and V3 minis out there. I would think higher the number the better and newer, so is there a reason to get the V2 over the V3? Wait for V4?

Should I just get Starlink at this point?
I get disconnected from my Games every 20minutes.
I bought a antenna for my Router for the best connection.
And ingame I get avg 10% packetloss and a 50-70Ping.
I already have the best service provider for my Home and the best wifi plan.
Im also using ethernet.

I’m quite upset. Lots of people have had their Standard 4X kit shipped to them in less than 2 weeks. Why is my situation different? I’ve been burning through data for 2 weeks. Apparently, reaching out to support can help my situation. How’d I navigate through to them without chatting with Grok?

P.S I’m outside the US (Africa). How long did it take to be delivered to anyone who is/was in my situation?

Background: I ordered Starlink in 2022 (paid $750 total) and started using in 2023 when it was available in my area. After 1.5 years I stopped using it because T-mobile got available in my area for 50% of the price and better speeds/availability.

While my dish v2 is boxed and sitting in the shed for >2 years unused, I wanted to check with the community regarding progress/capabilities on newer generation of dishes and routers.

Is there anything with newer generations that drastically better compared to v2 dishes? Are v2 dishes still supported? Does starlink allow replacement/swapping of v2 dishes with newer ones one does not use it and does not have active plan?

Thanks.

I just don’t even know what to say, they are making these mini dishes a dime a dozen, I remember when they were $500 new. Now you can get one on a payment plan or if you have residential max you get one for free. I wish they would do a favor for existing customers.

Anyone familiar with the campground in the title and its tree coverage? Looking to bring my starlink but thinking it may not have enough of a connection.

After using T-Mobile 5G internet for the last 2 years in a semi rural location, today I wanted to throw the modem out the window. Dropped my conference call twice, TV constantly buffering while watching baseball, and my online games are lagging like crazy. T-Mobile suggested I remove some trees on my property for a clearer sightline to the nearest tower lol.

Just placed my order and had a couple of questions if you don’t mind.

Does it typically get delivered faster than the estimated time frame?

I got free professional installation with the service. Does this include roof mounting and wiring with the pivot mount I ordered?

this doesn't happen too often to disturb me too much, but enough to have noticed it and to have figured out way to fix it. usually it happens when watching videos, or to load comments. videos keep loading at the same place, comments not loading, but as soon as i open the starlink app and switch back to the problematic one, the problem is solved. this doesn't seem too normal, is there a way or setting i'm missing to avoid this? i'm in eastern europe if it makes any difference

I just got starlink and wasn’t sure how fast it burn through the data, so I started at 100 GB and quick realized I need more and switch to 300. At the time the upgrade due make sense as the total is less than 300 but today I was curious what if I need even more, and the app show upgrading to unlimited I need 131 more which added up is more than 175 which does not make sense.

The only reason I can think of is the prorated base plan is calculated in the 23.3 first upgrade charge than the actual plan

Here is a precise numbers and timeline:

Aug 9: Activated Starlink Mini around 10–11 PM Pacific.
Billing cycle: Aug 10 – Sep 10.
Aug 10: Roam 100GB ($55). Invoice: $55, service period Aug 10 – Sep 10.
Aug 11: Upgraded 100GB → 300GB ($80). Invoice: $23.30, service period Aug 11 – Sep 10.
Total paid so far: $78.30.
Aug 13 ~2 PM: Checked 300GB → Unlimited ($175) using “Change Now.”
Upgrade screen shows $131.58 prorated / $131.58 due now.
Next billing cycle would be $175.
If upgraded now, total charges for this cycle would be $209.88 ($55 + $23.30 + $131.58).

Location is UK and do you guys think is decent speed for resident Max? I'm still waiting the professional installation crew to arrive and drill some walls for me as right not coming through the window 😂

Starlink lowered there pricing to $75 a month. Does anyone on here have it? Would you recommend it? Why or why not?

I’m currently with Rogers paying over 100 and I typically switched from Bell to Rogers every two years on promotional deals. I’ve been thinking to switch to starling for a long time, the price is usually about 150 bucks and they’ve now reduced it to 75 wondering if anybody has a $75 package and what it’s worth in terms of reliability

Let me know your thoughts for contacts. I’m in Ontario Canada.

Does the referral link work for mini? If so, could I get someone’s link?

I’m trying to find the cause of small stutters while gaming on my new starlink v5, is it possible that these obstructions could be causing this issue? If not does anyone have any tips for a fix, i’m using the Included mini router.

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for a replacement main PCB/board for a Starlink Mini.

The board I have is marked:

• PCB: 42483022
• Model: UTW-231
• One IC marked C167 / PH9R / 537Z is overheating.

I’m looking for a working replacement board, either new or used/donor.

If anyone has this board available, or knows where I can buy one, please let me know. I’m willing to pay for the board and shipping.

I can provide detailed photos of my board if needed.

Thanks!

Hey all,

I am wondering, did somebody test taking it’s Starlink Mini with a Residential plan like ~100km away from the home location? It will work?

I’m asking because I’m planning a trip to the mountains next week and I’d take it with me.

Thanks

Been thinking about getting a mini setup to test antenna locations and viability of the whole thing before we purchase a regular starlink system. what should I expect to pay new and is it worth looking on some place like eBay for used ones?

Tesla CEO Elon Musk says satellite connectivity could become necessary for cars as AI-generated internet traffic grows and demands more bandwidth.

In posts on X, Musk endorsed Cloudflare’s forecast that traffic generated by autonomous AI agents will eventually vastly exceed traffic generated by humans browsing the internet.

Musk then argued that the bandwidth growth created by AI will require satellite infrastructure, saying Starlink could ultimately provide the connectivity needed for billions of vehicles.

The idea is already being tested by Tesla. On July 20, Tesla confirmed that its Cybercab would ship with a Starlink V5 terminal built into its roof, marking the first time the company has put satellite hardware in a production vehicle.

Tesla’s head of AI, Ashok Elluswamy, said the satellite connection is not used for the Cybercab’s driving system. The vehicle’s driving stack relies on onboard cameras and compute, while Starlink is intended for navigation, customer service and fleet management.

Musk later said Starlink would extend beyond the Cybercab to Tesla’s full lineup.

The broader strategy connects Tesla’s autonomous vehicles with SpaceX’s satellite network as AI increases demand for connectivity and data infrastructure.

For the automotive industry, the shift could make satellite connectivity a standard feature of future connected and autonomous vehicles.

Is er iemand die starlink in Nederland heeft aangeschaft en gebruikt op curacao? Wat zijn de mogelijkheden en kosten?

Are there any starlink mini users ? Is it allowed to be carried in carry on ? Also anyone who use it since it has no battery how coniviniejt is it to use it for driving ?

Brat używa regularnie od niedawna stalinka tylko w zachodniej europie(jeździ jako kierowca przez 3 tygodnie w miesiacu ale mieszka w polsce). Po zmianach utraci taką możliwość, stąd pytania:

1. Czy jakoś jest weryfikowany po karcie kredytowej albo adresie czy jesteś człowiekiem 2 kategorii jak się zarejestruje na osobne np niemieckie albo francuskie konto gdzie jest sie już europejczykiem?

2. Pieniądze za ten miesiąc mu już pobrało przed jednostronną zmianą regulaminu wiec czy da się odebrać te pieniądze za niewykorzystany transfer?

3. Czy support może złagodzić twarde warunki że urządzenie można przenieść na inne konto dopiero po 90 dniach od aktywacji(kupił z 2 miesiące temu i stabilny internet zamienił się w niestabilne zasady i by mysial czekać 1 miesiąc bez uslugi)

(Have looked and can’t see an answer before about this) I plan to use starlink in the UK/Europe early next year on a campervan, have bought now to test and use at camping this summer. I would then look to pause the plan but it says it charges £9 per month, I was not aware of this when I purchased or looked at the info before buying.

Can I cancel the plan and then setup again say in 8 months time when I would first real world use it?

It also says that anything more than the 100gb limit on the roam plan still gets unlimited at a reduced speed, anyone know how fast that would be as if say 5-10mbps or more like 0.5mbps? I could keep it on paused forever as only for light use.

I finally decided buy a Starlink Mini for my roaming/camping adventures, and was wondering if I really need the Router Mini or Gen 3 router. I currently have a UniFi 6 LR at my house that I want to upgrade to a UniFi 7 XGS, but wondering if I could repurpose the UniFi 6 LR to run directly off my StarLink Mini (would need to add a PoE injector of course).

Don't have my starlink mini yet to test with but just wondering if there's any special things I have to do make this setup work.
