[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3518863, member: 5412"] We have used sat internet service previously and it sucked. The speeds were just slightly OK for normal internet use but not for any gaming which I don't do, so the slower speeds were OK. We were relegated to 10 gigs per month though. Our internet now runs about 8-12 GBS at best but again, don't game so that is ok. Another big issue was with the latency issue when we tried to go with a wireless security system. It just wouldn't work. As I understand it, Starlink sats are much closer to the earth than the standard satellites so the latency issue may go away as they advertise. Don't know yet. We will certainly take a further look at it. [/QUOTE]
