Good content. Just ordered mine and luckily I set up the account and bought through the website before the Starlink kit arrives. Now we wait for arrival and take notes and points that you've highlited. I got the Kshs.6500 package as I am in the Eastlands area and the same Kshs.6100 is what I pay for Zuku for [60mbps download and 6Mbps upload], anything above100mbps download and 10mbps upload for the Kshs.6500 is a major win for me. Looking forward to your next video. If you're looking to buy though, I implore you to get the Starlink Gen 3 or better yet the Starlink Mini from the reviews I'm getting online. Today being the 14th - AUGUST - 2024, getting the Starlink Gen 2 kit @Kshs. 29,999 within Nairobi, Kenya is a hustle and a tussle; major supermarkets have run out of stock.
@cliffjohn3612 zuku charges a lot, in my area(malindi coast) we've one competitive ISP, who offers 75mbps at 6250. He's taken almost the whole of my area since he has prioritized good customer care and affordable internet. I'm torn whether to get starlink or stay with my isp fibre
Next video will be my first speedtest and setup , you’ll get to see the process and how fast the internet speeds are in Nairobi. I’m taking suggestions on where to go test it out next
Good one bro. Starlink is the best and perfect choice with user friendly features with no huge dish nor installation costs…I tried last month enjoying it @1300per month
I wasn’t intending to use it on livestreaming because the upload speeds are abit limited. But I’ll try and see whether it can work out in such an event
what am sure with starlink they will be way more better on stability of net than many internet providers in kenya...security wise i am not sure how the receiver are because the receivers of the other net providers have been on high rise of theft
The waitlist period is indefinite nobody knows when it’ll be lifted or whether it’ll be lifted at all . At the moment Nairobi and its environs Starlink is at capacity
Do Iunderstand it correctly? Much as Starlink has the 1300, 6500 and 8000 packages, it is they who decide what you take? And for you they gave you the 14000 option that I am not even aware of?
Is it me or I'm interpreting the roaming package differently? I thought the roaming package only applies if you want to use Starlink outside the jurisdiction area where you signed up for your Starlink
@@African_josh These are things that are very hard to pick up form all videos. I have watched more than 10 Kenyan starlink videos. You guys are doing a great job. I think if you do avideo higlighting these kind of things it would really help. Some people are looking to travel with it every week to some remote location for work. Also its sad you cannot mount the router on the wall. Also I am not sure if we are getting the Gen 3 or not. Those of us who have not interracted are still so confusded by this info. Great video though.
Also a direct speedtest side by side comparison with existing suppliers like Safaricom fiber, zuku, Airtel box and the normal phone 5G network among others would be great. Tech guys assume that we know what 159Mbps and 40 mbps means. I can bet half of your viewers haven't even noticed the Mbps is in small in the upload. If you put it into perspective, we'd really appreciate.
Also, terms like latency tunafloat kidogo. Ofcourse I can google that, but I wish when I google, I'd find the answer in your videos. A little definition and exactly how that affects us would be great. Some guys are into heavy usage, some medium, some light, gamers, email only types of people and all other type of users want to see how those terms like LATENCY affect us. Does it mean when i am on a zoom call i will wait a few seconds to get what my respondent says? I think you explained a bit in the video, but not quite clearly.
@@African_josh I am struggling a little to understand all these, but quite frankly I am just buying because of FOMO. I am yet to evaluate the value it brings and how much more convenient it is to o use starlink. All in all great work, you earned two new subscribers, real me and my pseudo. lol! Cheers!
Yes, you have to buy an Ethernet cable for Starlink Gen 2 [Actuated], then Gen 3 which is pricier and currently not available through their website in Kenya, it's router is WIFI 6 in contrast to Gen 2 which has WIFI 5, and the Gen 3 router has two Ethernet ports of which you can use Starlink internet with any third party router and other Internet of things devices respectively.
There is a reason why the manufacturer gives instructions on every device Kenyans. Please read the instructions first.... All we can see are the repercussions of not following the manufacturer's manual.
I used to use poa internet when they started out in kibra and Kawangware, it was good for the time but had down times. Next month Wacha tuone venye kutaenda
Starlink mini is on its way. Probably by Dec n will Probably be half that amount. I honestly need an internet devoid of govt interference. Safcom n others will pay a high price for allowing the govt to interfere with internet during the recent Gen-z protests.
How can someone determine the areas that get the 6500 package? So that we don't get caught off guard. Secondly if you buy the 6500 package does it mean you can't travel with it because it is locked on one location?
It’s as easy as just keying in your location on the Starlink website , it’ll tell you what’s available in that area , from what I’ve been advised the residential package of ksh 6500 is locked to the location you registered while paying meaning you only have a radius of 1km . Outside that area it will definitely not work
6,500 package is available anywhere in Kenya. You can also travel with your dish anywhere in the country. You simply go on the app and update your location when traveling outside your home area
Hi Josh am Benjamin from Nairobi have been wanting to have one of these but I don't have a job, if you gift me this one I'll be the happiest Man in the world and I'll really appreciate appreciate you utakuwa umenifungulia njia thank you in advance

I’m actually excited for Starlink mini , when that comes to kenya I’ll gladly get one
Eastlands seems to be less saturated so they offer the best rates there
@@African_josh True, it goes all the way to 45K after the dust settles and that's a pretty penny given the current economic climate

@@elton8536get starlink,iyo pesa kidogo iko juu,na starlink utapata freedom ya kujitawala
You can try testing it with gaming too..gaming updates, playing online, game downloads etc just to test how fast it is also
Thanks, this was insightful especially me being a potential buyer !
Next video will be my first speedtest and setup , you’ll get to see the process and how fast the internet speeds are in Nairobi. I’m taking suggestions on where to go test it out next
The packaging is next level.
Ty hosh this helped alot because i was thinking of buying it
Get one already, you won’t regret it
Price of the kit hasn’t dropped. They made a affordable kit for countries like kenya
Thanks Josh am going for this very soon cheers
Good one bro. Starlink is the best and perfect choice with user friendly features with no huge dish nor installation costs…I tried last month enjoying it @1300per month
Yesssir 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾 way to go!!!!
Incredible Nairobi wallpaper...nimepata iyo
Hehe thank you I can send you a copy, I took that drone shot a while back
@@African_josh I would appreciate man
Niceee🔥🔥
nice one bro ..reactions on point
Starlink POP ips now showing up, please may you confirm if latencies have improved
Is the rental relationship a rent to own or rent in perpetuity?
My Starlink just went down and refuse to bring light from the bottom,please I need help
What do you mean went down?
Good job man 💯
Thank you 🙏🏾
We never read any paperwork...but we good .
Content safii
Thanks bruv
I’ll be testing it out around Nairobi utanikaribisha when we come test it out huko Dago?
@@African_josh OFCOURSE BRO. Kuja this Sunday. I have a show. You are most welcome ukiweza fika.
do you intend to use this for the livestream events as well?
I wasn’t intending to use it on livestreaming because the upload speeds are abit limited. But I’ll try and see whether it can work out in such an event
Nice one I like it what if I sell it to me at a throw away price have been wanting to have one like this please Josh kindly
I’m still thinking of using mine for the long run especially now that the prices have gone back up
just stop looking at the top camera focus on us the camera in front of you 😊
I’m working on that 😅😅😅
Amazing unboxing.
I also bought it and it is working well for me.
Good stuff what’s your location and what speeds are you averaging?
@@African_josh I am in rural parts. My speeds go up to 250mbps and as low as 120mbps.
how much package upipipia ?
saw this link in your whatsapp status had to click on it..doope work..wepuks to this n more content😀😀
😅😅😅 aaah thank you 🙏🏾
what am sure with starlink they will be way more better on stability of net than many internet providers in kenya...security wise i am not sure how the receiver are because the receivers of the other net providers have been on high rise of theft
I’ll be happy to purchase an upgraded kit with better latency and better upload speed
I’ve heard cases of theft but mostly in dense populated areas . I think it would be safe to have mounted on the highest point of one’s house
When will starlink be available again as for us in machakos we are on a waiting list
The waitlist period is indefinite nobody knows when it’ll be lifted or whether it’ll be lifted at all . At the moment Nairobi and its environs Starlink is at capacity
@@African_josh can someone use another near location and change to original location if it again becomes available again.
Amazing content
Thank you 🙏🏾
How does one work around the upfront ksh14000? Cause I'm experiencing the same in my location
Just try out different locations around and within your location till the option opens up
@@African_josh Thank you, does it have to be in Nairobi cause im in nai or as long as you are using a location within the country?
Master🔥🔥

Content is king
The coverage of internet from the site?
Do Iunderstand it correctly? Much as Starlink has the 1300, 6500 and 8000 packages, it is they who decide what you take? And for you they gave you the 14000 option that I am not even aware of?
I found a work around towards that
@@African_josh What is the work around?
Whats the difference in those packages.ju kuna package ya 45000 ingine ya 80k.whats the difference.ama the payment plan dio tofauti??
At the time that was the price of the gen 2 kit and gen 3 kit respectively
Can you play call of duty online.
Wanna see the ms
can you do a review on the anker
Now that you’ve mentioned it I’ll do a review on it
Why wasnt the residential package available to you?
I think it’s a location thing but I found a hack
Always read the manual bro.
Is it unlimited internet for the 1300kshs package?
No it’s capped at 50gb
Is it me or I'm interpreting the roaming package differently? I thought the roaming package only applies if you want to use Starlink outside the jurisdiction area where you signed up for your Starlink
I could be wrong but when you pay for a residential package you’re locked in to a specific location

Can it work with other routers like huawei,safaricom etc
Yes it can work with other routers but you’ll need the Ethernet adapter that’s sold separately
Yes, you have to buy an Ethernet cable for Starlink Gen 2 [Actuated], then Gen 3 which is pricier and currently not available through their website in Kenya, it's router is WIFI 6 in contrast to Gen 2 which has WIFI 5, and the Gen 3 router has two Ethernet ports of which you can use Starlink internet with any third party router and other Internet of things devices respectively.
Yes but it's a bad idea. Starlink Routers are more superior.
So the 1300 is not guaranteed?
There is a reason why the manufacturer gives instructions on every device Kenyans.
Please read the instructions first.... All we can see are the repercussions of not following the manufacturer's manual.
Anwani was just chilling😂
😅😅😅😅 anwani was trynna ruin everything
At some point i was worried tokens were running out coz you kept checking the amount of unit's you were using 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 very funny, I was using the battery pack so I had to keep an eye on the voltage
@@African_josh so hows the battery pack doing
@@langatp its surprisingly good i can run the starlink for afew hours on it
will i be able to pay the 1300 package if am in kahawa west
Yes you will
Thanks info. Does starlink give Public IP???
You get public ip on business package ie priority @8000pm compared to 6500.

I have zuku and we pay 2500 for a month for 10mbps. Its a scam, i wish i had starlink cause ill pay half of the money for x10 speed
Zuku was my first ever home internet option and I was frustrated by them in less than 3 months of usage , I definitely can’t recommend them
I was wondering why bro has a box from Reebok
nice one

It’s as easy as just keying in your location on the Starlink website , it’ll tell you what’s available in that area , from what I’ve been advised the residential package of ksh 6500 is locked to the location you registered while paying meaning you only have a radius of 1km .
