For 200 dollars per month, it will therefore be possible to have internet anywhere on the globe thanks to Elon Musk’s satellites. At least where it is allowed.
Internet on top of the mountains or in the depths of the virgin forest? If few people will ultimately need this service, Starlink will nevertheless offer it: for 200 dollars per month, you will therefore be able to have worldwide access to the satellites of the constellation.
So much for the promise. In detail, Elon Musk’s company is tempering a bit: speeds can drop and sometimes even cut off, the company says. It will also be necessary to invest 599 dollars in the basic kit (mainly a dish) which must be installed. Clearly, the device is mainly aimed at backpackers in vans who roam the white areas.
Especially since Starlink is far from being deployed in all countries of the world. North America, Europe, Australia, Japan and part of South America have granted a license to the company, however, very few African countries are concerned, even if the first deployments come to be formalized.
Finally, notice to sailors: Starlink’s offer only concerns dry land.
