I got Starlink internet at home. I wish I knew these 6 details first

Here is a 170-word summary of the key points from the article: The article describes the author's experience setting up Starlink internet at home in a rural area with poor internet connectivity. While Starlink provided a significant improvement in download speeds compared to the previous 3Mbps landline, the author encountered several surprises and downsides. Firstly, Starlink performs best when the dish is properly mounted in an unobstructed location, which required hiring a professional installer. The author also found the default mounting system to be unattractive. Secondly, Starlink's upload speeds remain relatively slow compared to fiber internet, limiting applications like live streaming. The author also found the included Starlink router to have limited range for their home. The author also experienced a global Starlink outage, highlighting the lack of redundancy. Additionally, some friends judged the author for using Starlink, due to its association with Elon Musk. Overall, the author sees Starlink as impressive technology with flaws in its execution, wishing for better aesthetics, reliability, and independence from its controversial CEO.
