Starlink Standard Satellite Internet Kit $349 (Regional Areas Only, Residential Plans from $99) + $34 Delivery @ Starlink

11935

Was on Starlink site today and noticed Standard Kit on special!

Looks to be Regional Areas Only due to "congestion" charge within Metro Areas - Tested for VIC and NSW Metro Addresses. Regional Appears to be fine and no additional charge.

The Generation 3 Standard Starlink Kit is on Sale via Starlink (at the moment). Highly likely that being Starlink have done the Sale, all retailers like JB, Harvey Norman, Officeworks and Bunnings will most likely lower their prices (usually within 24 hours).

This is more suited for homes and businesses with fixed locations.

Speed Tests of Standard Kit can be found here including Latency - This is on a Residential Plan (not Residential Lite).

Two Residential Plan Option:

  • Residential - Our most popular plan for typical residential customers. Unlimited data.
  • Residential Lite - An affordable option for smaller households and lower internet usage. Unlimited deprioritized data. Speeds may be lower than our Residential service at peak hours.

          • @geekcohen: in middle of the night i get 400-450mbps sometimes

            throughout the day one minute it's 80mbps the next it's 250mbps

            for upload it's low as 4mbps but sometimes seen it 27mbps max 37mbps

            i have a feeling lite plan maybe more predictable consistent

            i do a speed test every hour, my averages are quite high

            data from past week average

            221.06MBps Download
            21.12MBps Upload
            44.25ms ping

            data from past month average

            209.49MBps Download
            19.71MBps Upload
            53.21ms ping

            i think ping could be better for similar reason why idle ping test and loaded ping test is slower, whether starlink optimises artificially limited connections im unsure

            i only read from one source about better ping but felt it made sense

            • @mantra: I know about speed tests because I run them every 5 mins.

              The ping doesn't make sense to me for being on Residential Lite. Like, ping in ping, how it can be lower just because of the plan? Anyway, something to test on my mini I think.

              As for your ping, that is very high! Your averages are lower than mine, so you must be away from either the Sydney or the Perth POP. I am in VIC.

      I've seen plenty of Winnie the Pooh discussion on Ozbargain, but this post is actually about Musk's Starlink for your information. You can read the title of the post if you scroll to the top. It's the text in the larger font. I hope that helps you with your daily struggles ❤️

        Evening trying to conflate "Winnie the pooh" with anything musk has done just demonstrates how far gone you people are.

        They are not even remotely "on the same level". Like they literally have concentration camps in China, what has musk done? Oh that's right he's on the right so he's literally Hitler!!!!!, we don't need any evidence though do we.

          Totally agree with you BinChicken. The schadenfreude is strong with these lefties.

        • Then i guess the 'lefties' are doing well by not bringing the big fat honey-loving dic up then? It was righty snowflake Johnrap that brought up the CCP and now you are engaging with the nonsense.

          "sources say"… Elon, the owner of starlink has already come out and said explicitly that this is bullshit… Ya know, a quick google search would have told you that, so I'm sure you already know. You'd just rather believe the fake news because it confirms your bias.

    Should we first sign an agreement for our Australia mine resources with USA?

    I will never ever use or buy any Elon's product or service.

    I think it's a little harsh to be critical of people using Starlink. I hate the fact that I have to use Starlink to access the internet reliably but my ONLY other option is Skymuster and until you have tried to work from home using that pitiful excuse for a communications system it's a little harsh to be critical of people who use the service. Likewise, I have no reliable mobile coverage where I live and depend quite heavily on Starlink for all my communications. I do not like the guys politics but Starlink has been a game changer for the way I work and communicate. I would much prefer our own government to have been able to provide reliable communications infrastructure to all taxpayers but they have not.

    • +2

      I haven’t read many comments of people criticising others for using starlink. Most of the comments have been directed at Musk himself or people whom doesn’t like reading anti musk comments.

      I don’t hate you for using what’s only available to you. But doesn’t mean I can’t neg this deal.

  • +3

    The trouble is, if Musk doesn't like what a country is doing, like Australia charging X a fee for journalism usage, he is likely to just cut Starlink off from the country.

    • He's not going to cut off Starlink because the government want 5 cents per news article for reposted X content. If he hasn't cut off Ukraine, he won't cut off OZ.

    A stack of comments about what people think the definition of a nazi salute it.
    Zero comments about Musk rescuing astronauts stuck for 10 months in space.
    A stack of Trump hate, but no hate for Biden, who left the astronauts stuck in space for nearly a year because he turned down Musk's offer to rescue them.
    Biden did not want to give Musk any credit. So Biden just left them there until after the election.

    • +2

      Did you verify any of that or just believe in Musk's and Trump's claims who are well known pathological liars?

      Nasa rejected the claim that they received any offer from Musk

      Don't you think if his offer was rejected by Biden in September, he would have blown it out of the water to damage Biden's campaign instead of waiting till now?

      • -1

        nope, no point in blowing the horn too early in case they all got killed on the way back. nasa did not get the offer, biden did. but nice try at the disinformation, a bit like the laptop was disinformation, the russia collusion scam, biden was not senile, disinformation….. https://streamable.com/awci8p

          Wouldn't believe anything Musk say without proof. This is guy who lied about his gaming achievement just for 5 minutes of fame 🤣

          On the topic about disinformation, ask his own AI, Grok who is the #1 disinformation speader on Twitter 😉

          • @tonyvooz: at least grok didn't show the founding fathers as black and ss stormtroopers as asian women….remember that one? ha ha. again with the disinformation… it is only 'disinformation' when YOU don't agree with it. lol.

    • You love Murica so much you are welcome to piss off from Australia

      • Where did I say that I love 'Murica'. ? I notice you don't have anything to contribute to the discussion apart from abuse. Well done.

        • dont really have anything to say to people who idolise Trump Musk and Murica

          Well done being from Australia and not even realising how much better things are here

          • @Freestyle: 'dont really have anything to say to people who idolise Trump Musk and Murica'

            For someone who 'doesn't have anything to say', you are doing a lot of talking.

            Where did I say I idolise anybody?

            Where did I say I love 'Murica'?

            Where did I say that I did not realise how much things are better in Australia?

            You can't even dispute basic events, so you construct a narrative to try pivot into some lame abuse.

            I relate some events and you twist it into some sort of affront to your sensibilities.

            At least you have Ozbargain threads to change the world with, one brain fart at a time.

            • @hueylewis: yeah you relate to some irrelevant events to try and paint a monster in a better light good job i’m sure he appreciates your idiocy

              You are basically the embodiment of the typical MAGA cult member trying very hard to justify that they are actually nice people

              • @Freestyle: I relate some irrelevant events????

                You mean you invent things that I never even said.

                I ask again,

                Where did I say I idolise anybody?

                Where did I say I love 'Murica'?

                Where did I say that I did not realise how much things are better in Australia?

                These claims are inventions of your imagination, which is playing tricks on you, because you seem to have trouble dealing with the reality of Trump being President for the next 4 years and after that, 8 years of President J.D. Vance.

                I know you don't like it, but it is just the way things are.

                So you can get used to it and embrace it, or just keep having a tantrum.

    People, stop mixing things …someone’s personal or political life doesn’t determine their professional excellence. If the product is good, buy it; if not, move on.
    Saying “I used to like that thing.. but now I don’t because I hate that guy” makes 0 sense.

      I don't mind people boycotting it due not wanting to support a corporation that they disagree with. Power to the little people!

    Such crying and bleating. One minute people love Tesla & Elon, next minute political bias makes people hate him. All the grifting and swaying based on US politics. People drooled over Elon for various things, like when he gave Starlink to Ukraine & during disasters, and then oh no, big bad Elon, time to focus on him with hatred. Be funny to see who loves him again in 4 years, when people are on mars, etc. And then 5 mins later, they'll be outraged yet again. 5 minute memory, 5 second attention span. I couldn't resist being a part of this thread, obviously. Little people and their little lives. :P

  • I have downgraded to lite plan, very easy on app and can upgrade if its not what i need.
    Rock solid service FWIW.

    • Would be good to hear how the Lite Plan services you and what the speeds are like (peak and off peak).

      • Yep cut through the BS with a chainsaw.
        Jist have to wait until end of current billing cycle to downgrade. Think going up is pro rata time.

      "Musk and Gina Rinehart can f***k off"

      I wish our leftie friends would do this and stop trying to impose their warped values on the rest of us.

      The left cares about “the people” as much as the Soviet Communist Party cared about the workers.
      For the left, real people are either political fodder, or, when they support the left, useful idiots.

      Rational people read Orwell’s “1984″ as a warning.
      Leftes read it as a training manual!

    Starlink is a game-changer for myself and my work which does a lot of regional jobs, no other sat service we used in the previous years ever came close to the quality we now get. Inner-city yuppies can downvote away but they're hardly the target market in the first place as they'll all have fixed-line NBN/Opticomm/etc anyway, so let them be salty at Elon.
