Experience the Difference with Starlink
Starlink offers impressive download speeds ranging from 100Mbps to 300Mbps on average, with some users even reaching over 300Mbps to 400Mbps, depending on their location, time of day and weather. Upload speeds typically range between 5Mbps and 35Mbps. These speeds are influenced by your geographic area and the number of users connected to the same satellite.
From our installations, we’ve observed that areas with minimal obstructions often experience download speeds exceeding 300Mbps, with upload speeds between 15Mbps and 30Mbps. A key advantage is the significantly reduced latency, averaging 20ms to 50ms—far better than NBN Satellite or 4G/5G—resulting in a smoother, more responsive internet experience.
While speeds may vary slightly from day to day, Starlink consistently delivers reliable performance without the drastic fluctuations often seen with NBN connections.
Our customers have shared numerous benefits from their Starlink installations, including:
- Reliable internet for working from home
- Improved quality for video conferencing on Zoom, Google Meet, and Teams
- Lag-free streaming of Netflix and other services
- Stable connectivity for kids’ tablets, keeping them in touch with friends
Whether at home, your business, or a weekend getaway, Starlink has proven to be a decision our customers never regret.
Please note that this speeds are referring to a Standard Generation Kit. A Starlink Mini is about 50% slow than the above speeds, however, still perfectly capable for on the go internet.
