Starlink vs NBN

Why is Starlink better than the NBN?

Skymesh Vs Starlink | Is Starlink better than NBN?

Starlink offers a a faster and much more reliable internet service because the Satellites are within lower orbit and there are more satellites compared to the NBN. The NBN Satellites (last time we heard, two satellites to service Australia) are higher in orbit, which means a longer distance to travel resulting in a longer response time (also known as latency).

Look at it this way, the NBN Satellites is a small 2 or 3 lane road with some traffic lights for multiple people resulting in lower speeds and response times. Starlink is a highway with 8, 10 and more lanes with no traffic lights resulting in faster speeds and response times.

Why is Starlink better than the NBN?

Starlink offers a faster and much more reliable internet service because the Satellites are within lower orbit and there are more satellites compared to the NBN. There are over 6,000 satellites world wide and constantly moving in low earth orbit! SpaceX is launching on average 60 new satellites a week!

The NBN Satellites are higher in orbit which means a longer distance to travel resulting in a longer response time (also known as latency). Also, there are fewer (last time we heard, only two satellites!) NBN Satellites which results in slower internet as every other user has to use the same bandwidth provided.

Upgrading to Starlink can service you better than NBN Fixed Wireless or Satellite!

Is Starlink better than NBN?

Depending on your NBN Technology available, Starlink can offer you a faster and much more reliable internet service.

Starlink offers a reliable internet service because the Satellites are within lower orbit and there are more satellites compared to the NBN.

For example, the NBN Satellites are higher in orbit which means a longer distance to travel resulting in a longer response time (also known as latency). Also, there are fewer NBN Satellites which results in slower internet as every other user has to use the same bandwidth provided.

Where we have completed Starlink Installations

The Process

Site Survey

Before even installing Starlink or requesting a service, we will assess the site of which you wish to have Starlink installed. We could do this remotely or it can be done in person depending on your location and obstecles. This is to ensure that Starlink is going to be the best solution for you and that your location will have a reliable Starlink connection.

Finalise Order

Upon completion of the Site Survey, we will provide a final order which outlines the install process, core parts and if any additional parts that might be required. We require approval on this to proceed.

Equipment Order

Once your order is approved and first payment of the order received, we will purchase any additional parts. If you haven't already, this is the time you can place your order for the Starlink equipment and Service.

Installation

Once all parts have been received and you have your Starlink equipment, we will arrange a date for your installation.

This unfortunately can be subject to weather.
