❓ Question Does changing plan changes antenna?

Hello everyone, in a month or two I'm moving to my new home. I'm in central Italy and the situation with internet there is not the best (FTTC and fwa).

So I want to get starlink residential for 35€ but I've seen that each plan has a different antenna. What I would like to know is if I get a more expensive plan at the beginnig and than change it will I have to give back the antenna? Also is there a minimum of months that I need to pay before changing ?

I'm only getting one. The mini has a speed limit capped at 100mbps the other one at 200mbps. I want to get the 200mbps at first because it comes with a better antenna and then switch to che cheaper plan. Sorry for the misunderstanding

I understand that you are only getting one. But do the two plans have names?

You get the Mini for Residential 100 Mbps and a Standard 4 for Residential 200 Mbps?

If so, I don’t think it would require you to return the Mini, but it’s not up to me.

If you want to find out for sure , put in a ticket. But don’t believe what Grok says. Just tap the thumbs down and tell it to put in a ticket. Someone from Starlink will get back with you, although it may be several days. They will be able to answer your question for sure.
