Probably a good idea if you have a camping site or a lodge somewhere in Wakanda or Kapedo and dont mind dropping 100K setup cost and charging customers more per night just coz you have FREE WIFI on your package.
I CAN SEE MOST PEOPLE WERE VERY PLEASED INCLUDING ME ABOUT HOW HE ELABORATED SO WELL BUT HIS LIKES ARE LESS THAN THE COMMENTS GUYS LETS GIVE HIM THE LIKES HE DESERVES IT!!
Starlink, pay through your ass for second rate equipment that cannot be fixed when broken, and a broken experience that can only be slightly improved by spend thousands of dollars more!
playing online games depends on ping and jitter which is quite high as they have said so it wont be a pleasant experience untill they improve on this..dont buy this if u are a streamer or a online gamer🤝
Good stuff Dickens. I am impressed by the 'dumbed down' explanation that has simplified this whole starlink story 😂 You truly have come a long way from way back tukiwa EBL KTL. I am proud of you 👊🏽
Rickdeeeeeees! Long time man! Hahaa you made me love tech during those days, too bad I didnt pursue it in school... But I remember the Nokia N95 etc... Good old days! Hope youre keeping well though, Thanks!
you haven't mentioned one thing when it's windy or it's raining the internet speed will be so poor that you can't watch 144p videos I am using wired internet and its 89mbps and I pay 800ksh my upload speed is more than 20mbps I can upload 20GB for just 6 to 8hrs but Starlink will take 3 to 4days
Correction 200MBPS is good for game downloads where modern games are like 50 GB plus, but actually playing online games relies on LATENCY (how long does information take to get to the service and back to you) REALTIME COMMUNICATION DEPENDS ON THIS AS WELL ,SO if star link latency is just too high then it's not a good pick for online gamers like myself
Is starlnk preferable when it comes to Internet service providers.... Like can it be advisable to be used to provide WiFi to tenants... What's your take on that?
Their terms of service dont allow reselling your connection, but I doubt you can be blocked from sharing your wifi password for example, only that speeds will reduce the more people use it.
I saw a mzungu techie youtuber from central kenya review it. it wasnt all that. unless you live in a very remote part of the country, stick to 5g. its faster, more reliable and cheaper. but if you are stationed in mandera, its alright
That is a great idea, but first you have to make sure that, they have built a bas station near you rural area. What I mean is that, it's not like you're directly getting a one to one connection with the satellite. By my knowledge they have to have built a ground base station to receive the data and send that same data to the base station so that it can read your data and resend it back to you. So you have to do some research before purchasing it.
I was happy for this but now NOT happy after going through the comments, excellent download speeds yes, mobility is a PLUS but PING is equally important for me since I do online gaming. Would still be great for my home in shags though. Another Point I was wondering was can we resell the Internet??
It's good but not as good as Fiber Optic internet, for me they have come a little bit to late in my opinion...might as well stick to the the faster option.
Pardon the late reply. In other markets they impose a speed throttle down (not a data amount cap) when the network is congested, not yet heard about that in Kenya.
Buda your videos are exceptionally informative .....made this concept easy to understand....keep up the good work..how's the practice after graduation?
You missed out the ground station in your drawing. Starlink does need a ground station to operate, but the signal can bounce around between satellites before it has to pass through a ground station. Currently only 2 in Africa in Nigeria.
main reason our kenyan brothers are way ahead of us in terms of tech .. i have been trying to bring starlink to my country but guy! the bureaucracy cheeii!!

Even our media will not do a great explanation of this thing. Your video is very informative.
Thanks!
The simple explanation that we all need to learn. Thanks for this.
Welcome, and thanks.
I watched the entire 13 Min without getting bored which means you know what you are talking about n complete with the drawings, I am subbed!!
Welcome! Thanks for watching!
A year ago it was selling at 100k now around 40k,next year I'm buying it at 10k😅
Probably a good idea if you have a camping site or a lodge somewhere in Wakanda or Kapedo and dont mind dropping 100K setup cost and charging customers more per night just coz you have FREE WIFI on your package.
Very true!
Intelligent observation. Starlink favours well-off businesses and homes in rural homes.
I CAN SEE MOST PEOPLE WERE VERY PLEASED INCLUDING ME ABOUT HOW HE ELABORATED SO WELL BUT HIS LIKES ARE LESS THAN THE COMMENTS GUYS LETS GIVE HIM THE LIKES HE DESERVES IT!!
Thanks for the support!

Thats good for you... You wouldn't need starlink, but there are people who will. True, weather is a factor for starlink.
Which one are you using?
You've got no business getting this thing if you live in urban areas served by other ISPs considering initial cost and upload speeds.
True.
Correction 200MBPS is good for game downloads where modern games are like 50 GB plus, but actually playing online games relies on LATENCY (how long does information take to get to the service and back to you) REALTIME COMMUNICATION DEPENDS ON THIS AS WELL ,SO if star link latency is just too high then it's not a good pick for online gamers like myself
True. Most testers have reported pings of around 50ms, which is not too bad for gaming, though not perfect.
@@Dkens in africa 50mbps is too good
@@Dkens 50ms is not perfect but it is great, i usually get 70-90ms🥲😂
50 ms is too fast
@@coolflame8846 sure. It ranges though... From down to 20 to past 100.
let me use fiber ..this thing is damn expensive.. fiber is only 5k installation and 2k monthly
Sure if you can access fiber, its way cheaper to get
I have been waiting for this video so much. Great one as always
There you go! Thanks.
Best TH-camr so far in Kenya
Humbled! Thanks for the support
@@Dkens anytime I want to purchase equipment for a podcast am setting up....n thanks to you I found out about aquantuo 💪🏾
@@BlueeCityJ good to know!
Agreed
How I wish my school teachers were as clear as you. Very good explanation.
Thanks! 😃 Good to hear.
This was a top student in my time my friend namwogopa 😮😮
Hahaha
how about in Tanznia it's work?
Not sure
this will benefit my Rugby team in Rusinga Island
yeah that's a good use case
Am sure those who owns iPhone 13,14,15 pros can buy Starlink whenever they feel like. Any let me keep quiet with my 6mpbs at ksh1,500.
hehee, very true. As long as you're comfortable, enjoy!
Great and quality tech updates as always. 🎉
Thanks!
are you a network engineer bruh, coz that was excellent, my profession.......who else had no idea about starlink😄😄😄😄
Hahaha Im nothing close to that, but thanks!
@@Dkens okay nice
Is starlnk preferable when it comes to Internet service providers.... Like can it be advisable to be used to provide WiFi to tenants... What's your take on that?
Check on terms of service since that would mean you will push more traffic
Their terms of service dont allow reselling your connection, but I doubt you can be blocked from sharing your wifi password for example, only that speeds will reduce the more people use it.
@@leonmuyeguahori7666 understood
@@Dkens thank you
the beauty is, i can go cyclink deep into no mans land with my gps system only with no need for the phone
True
Can i get this and spread internet to my neighbors at a fee
Reselling is against their terms of service... though Im sure some Kenyans will do that lol
Well explained. Does FSK mean something to you? If so,💪.
Haha thanks! Most definitely... I was there... and I guess you too.
It's my first time watching your videos ..
You deserve over 100k subscribers
Thanks! Will get there someday!
Correction: we don’t usually use Satellites for internet. We use deep sea Fibre cables.
True, I was just giving an example of conventional satellites, didn't mean that that is what we mainly use.
Thank you. I have understood it better and will undoubtedly get it
Great! Hope you enjoy it.
100k and after I will continue paying 6,000 per month and you say is not expensive
I saw a mzungu techie youtuber from central kenya review it. it wasnt all that. unless you live in a very remote part of the country, stick to 5g. its faster, more reliable and cheaper. but if you are stationed in mandera, its alright
True, not unless you consume so much data, at which point 5g becomes unviable.
260 mbbs can I share it with my neighbour if I have a cable to distribute it am living in bungalows that are in one compound
You possibly can
Great explanation. Tuambieko juu ya WorldCoin kabla tuuze macho bwana!! 😅
Thanks! Coming up...
Airtel 5G still better and cheaper
Sure, if you are actually covered, and dont need too much data
And currently twitter new name is X
Sure.
Starlink = Dstv for bundles. Awesome presentation
Nice summary. Thanks!
is it just me or the Twitter image looks more like a satellite than the satellite drawing itself. anyway, great video.
Thanks, lol, I know!
What a premium video. Thanks for the information!
Buda i like your content
Thanks!
How much is 100000 Kenya money in USD
About 700 usd
am interested in Starlink for my rural home, currently paying safcom 4k for 1mbs via their 4g routers. there is no comparison there
That will be a very suitable use case. Otherwise hope you've been good doc!
That is a great idea, but first you have to make sure that, they have built a bas station near you rural area. What I mean is that, it's not like you're directly getting a one to one connection with the satellite.

So you have to do some research before purchasing it.
4k for 1mbs?? holy cow, where is your rural home?? lodwar?
@@TheJayairI think that was the previous satellite communication model. Not starliknk.
Sure. Starlink does not use base stations.
You got a new subscriber, great content, really enjoyed this.
Welcome, thanks!
THESE DAYS WE HAVE FIBRE INTERNET PROVIDERS DOING FREE INSTALLATION.
Your diagrams are well drawn and the explanation is spot on
Thanks!
Rural access? But how many rural forks need or can afford starlink?
Only the ones with big monies lol
You should be getting tech ads by now 🙏. Is there a link we can vote for the best tech channels?
Haha, I wish there was one. But thanks!
I was happy for this but now NOT happy after going through the comments, excellent download speeds yes, mobility is a PLUS but PING is equally important for me since I do online gaming. Would still be great for my home in shags though. Another Point I was wondering was can we resell the Internet??
Their TOS doesn't allow reselling, not unless you just share your internet somehow. Otherwise reported pings range from 20 to 100ms... Not too bad.
I think starlink is also cheaper in the long run
Possibly...
Hey man, great video. One thing I want to know is if it'll be affected by rain like DSTv.
Thanks. I didnt mention it but yes, weather affects it.
Dickenns, you're such a brilliant mind! Thank you so much for all you share on TH-cam!
I always feel usefully smarter after watching your content.
My pleasure! Thanks for watching!
any one using star link in western Kenya ,kakamega share your experince
It's good but not as good as Fiber Optic internet, for me they have come a little bit to late in my opinion...might as well stick to the the faster option.
Fiber is better for most uses, especially if you can access it.
Can't believe TH-cam recommended your channel today I wish this algorithm did this earlier such great content from Kenya
Glad you enjoy it!
Curious.
Is there a FUP on starlink? Any capping on data? Like 200gb per month ama these guys are unlimited FR FR?
Pardon the late reply. In other markets they impose a speed throttle down (not a data amount cap) when the network is congested, not yet heard about that in Kenya.
Buda your videos are exceptionally informative .....made this concept easy to understand....keep up the good work..how's the practice after graduation?
Thanks doc! I'll keep up! All is well out here, just hustling... hope you're fine!
Iko very expensive. 240 $ a month. Many kenyans cannot afford it. Lakini iko very fast 5g network.
Costs 6500 per month
Price
Its in the video.
Can you share with neighbours! Or sell for that matter
I think its against their terms of service to share a connection, but on the other hand you can always just share your wifi, lol
My orthopaedic surgeons😂😂 you can't believe it😂
Oh, really? haha
92,000kshs+ buying price and 6500/- monthly maintanance fee😅.
Its not for the faint of heart lol
This is good for sharing
Nice content..That Rocket joke though😂
Thanks, 😂😂
manz taught the whole of data communication in 4 minutes
Haha, thanks.. hope its helpful
hapo pa lower latancy i dont think starlink will provide. Good content lakini.
Reviewers in other countries have reported quite good latencies, but we'll wait and see.
No monthly payment for the rest of one's life?
You have explained it very well
You just got a new follower! This is top notch explanation ul
Thanks and welcome!
The next video shows us how to order
Hopefully that might come.
Amazing content bruh,Star link are a game changer
Thanks!
now my average question is, why is kenya involved in this starlink community
The goal is to get the whole world on board, seems like Kenya is among the first countries in Africa
kenyans can by but security first
Sure
Thanks to the youtube algorithm for coming through with this channel
Welcome!
This is quite informative. Good job.
Thanks!
Zuku must be cursing!
Hehe... Many people won't afford starlink.
@@Dkens I agree.
Is the 100k initial cost for individual users only or companies will also spend a similar amount?
@@reine924 theres even more expensive packages that companies could opt for.
Kenyan internet needed competition
Current prices r abit tooo much
Sure, the more the providers, the better for consumers
Man good job. Very informative
Glad it was helpful!
very enjoyable videos btw😆
Glad you like them!
You are good in explaining
Thanks a lot 😊
Can I supply to a remote institute college
Sure!
What do I need or who should I consolt
Too expensive for an everyday African....
True, initial cost is quite high
Great video thanks for the elaboration
Thanks and welcome!
Nice 👍
Thanks
simple and amazing explanation
Glad you think so!
Dickens how can i commercialize this?
Their terms of service do not allow reselling the internet, but you can always get creative
Give your reviews of its performance
Hope to do it someday soon
Can I buy it n use it in Uganda
Not sure, but we'll find out if they'll include an international service. Other places like US customers have that.
well explained
Thanks!
I here the main problem with starlink is the set up cost
How much is it
Yeah the initial cost is quite high. But once you buy it you dont have to pay anyone to set it up for you.
How can i contact starlink office in kenya
They don't have an office, but have an appointed sales agent... Just google
Beside the symmetrical download and upload speeds, You haven't mentioned the 'latency'. Very important.
Sure I didn't, but many reviewers have reported around 50-100ms
Now I can move to my shamba 😂
You sure can, lol!
How much is this per month in our houses??
6500 ksh
Congrats. Waiting for license in UG
Thanks, all the best!

Thanks for the info!
In Sudan, our internet is severely restricted. The government controls the internet. We are now ordering via SPEAEX internet.
Very unfortunate!
bla bla bla ...how much money
I said it.
Good 👍 Content
well articulated
Thanks!
Great informative video. Also, Really funny guy. Subscribed!
Glad you enjoyed! Welcome!
