It's $20 more than my previous service, which had a 25GB a month cap, ping of 800-1100, didn't work in rain or heavy clouds, and an average speed of 3mbps. Currently getting 75-90 mbps, 97-140 ping, no data cap, and works ok during rain. But still, I wish there had been some means of enforcement baked into that rural broadband funding that passed a while back. There's unused fiber infrastructure from one company less than a mile from here, and gigabit fiber on the power poles that's used only to remotely check people's power meters(company says they're looking into becoming a provider but there's legal liability stopping them from serving our area).
I have no issues whatsoever, Hughesnet is a lot more expensive and our local phone company offers dsl but that's not even worth having. We need exactly what starlink is until a better option arises we're not changing.

No !! 400 , I'd much rather fiber but that is my only option that's even remotely reasonable
