You guy’s always deliver the goods , you keep it simple and non biased plus you are always upfront if and when you are collaborating with who ever. Personally I am getting very tired with certain TH-camrs that get a ton of gear for free and they promote all their products ( which they have been given) and are increasingly getting worse, as far as being biased . Not like you guys- you keep it real. THANK YOU 🙏
Thanks for the review - we’re just about to push the go button on Starlink and you’ve nudged us over the line. Loving these midweek episodes. Also good to see that you’re getting close to 10k subscribers. Great to hear your going to make into WA.
Great video guys. Very helpful. We’re heading off for an 8 month trip of the eastern seaboard and I’m going to be working remotely, so this review has been most helpful 👌🏼
Our caravan guy put a boat bung through our van now we have the router in side in a cupboard which has 240 the cord can be run thru the caravan to the outside then connects to the satellite dish. Works great
Thanx guys, its amazing how you compared and show us how the products work. Such a pity you missed out on the reduced price and we will get one for sure. Nice to see you guys and mr Bob in the week, cant wait for Sunday morning. Thanx for your hard work Cheers Johnny&Rene
Great review, mine will be delivered next Monday. Thanks for the heads-up about Outcamp too, I have just now ordered the Starlink bag and a generator bag.
Looks like this starlink is taking on well You guys are the 6th TH-camr from Australia that showed this product 👏 and its the next thing to slice bread . Awesome product 👌 Greetings from south africa 🇿🇦 😀
Great video Deryk, lots of good information, thanks for sharing. We can’t find much info on the website about plans, ie download limits. Is yours unlimited? Kind regards, Corrie
Thanks, another great upfront, honest and unbiased informative video, thanks and that is why you guys are the best on You Tube as you are the real deal. Bob didn't look to enthused re Starlink at the end though 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Looking forward to sundays episode and hopefully you have had a great week and no disasters like the previous two weeks 👍
Great stuff. I watched a few reviews already but your comments regarding saving money by not needing to be close to towns and therefore skip the caravan parks really makes sense! I am still unsure if I buy it now while it is on sale or wait until there is a 12V version out. Does anyone has a crystal ball and can predict the future please? 😀 Decisions decisions! Thanks for another very helpful video!
Starlink is good for the people that can utilise it enough to offset the cost of it i.e for work, schooling or full time content creation. Starlink is good for people that are tech illiterate as it's an easy setup process and the price and ongoing price reflects that. That out there internet kit is more involved with the setup process as it has a directional antenna (not an "any direction"/put up and point anywhere or at some random town) which means it has a 10°-20° narrow area to be pointed directly at a telstra tower to pick up reception. If you can't set it up properly please don't use it in a comparison video.
We have completed 2 x 5 month half laps around eastern Australia over the past 16 months. Around 45000kms in total. Chasing mobile service for internet has been a limiting factor for us. I have just purchased Starlink to use during our next trip, 12 months in WA. The ability to access internet in otherwise unserviced locations will be fantastic. We will explore places previuosly not available to us. I have tested Starlink at home. It is generally 3 - 4 times faster than my current nbn service. I share your excitement.
We agree. Internet can be very difficult to access and we can’t fault starlink. We travelled from Airlie where we had it delivered and we have not gone without internet now we have starlink. The speeds are fantastic as well. To be honest we didn’t do it for the speed but just to be able to have internet for us to work. Speeds are a bonus
@@suelandolt6840 hi.. thanks for getting back to me.... I've seen people deleting the stand and mounting them on their roof permanently on other YT channels..so yeah that answered my question 😅
Thanks for this video I have recently put in the residential service and its amazing compared to anything else I have had. We live in the Hawkesbury and internet or phone reception in general has been an ongoing nightmare. Question for you, your traveling fulltime so I get purchase the RV version but if your only traveling say 3 months or so per year can you pause your subscription?
We’re also really interested in starlink. Do you feed a cord through the window? Would it be worth installing a caravan wall plate for whatever connection it has?
We do feed it through the window and still able to close the window. There is I’m sure ways to have it go through the van. We haven’t ventured down that road yet as it works fine the way we have it. Over Christmas we will look at some ideas 🙌🏻
Hey guys great episode, we've had Starlink for about 10 months now and it's awesome, hopefully a tip for you travelling always try to set up the dish facing towards the Eastern sky's, stay safe out there and keep up the great work 👍
Awesome review on Starlink! My wife has just accepted a position as a Vet Nurse on call and we have been looking at options for reliable internet? Currently using Nighthawk which needs phone reception! You reassured us that this is not always possible 🤦🏻 We have been told that you need reception to set Starlink up each time you move? Watching your review, this obviously is not true? Kind regards Jeff and Jenny
Hey guys . No you don’t need phone reception to setup starlink. We use it where phone reception is nonexistent. Just watch for trees etc. you open the app and then scan the sky and it will tell you where and if there is obstruction in the way. Then when you plug in starlink it will automatically move to its position and you will have internet. Just remember it’s data and not phone reception but there are many apps you can phone off of
@@justvanningit that’s awesome information, thank you for taking the time to get back to us! One more question? Do you need to update your location as you travel? Cheers 🍻 Jeff
This is a no-brainer for you guys. You live and travel in a van full time, Sue works full time on the road, and this thing will set you free.I hope one day you surprise us with a live feed from some of Australia's remote places.
Do you think you can use your existing Multi Directional booster Mast and stick ya Starlink on the end of it ? Keep it high and away from thieving Hands , I’m thinking quite a few Starlink dishes will go walking if not tethered in some fashion. Thanks for posting an honest review
Thanks Paul. It’s not a bad idea but if you need the dish to be in a better location than where your van is parked then it’s better to be able to move the dish around. Theft is something to think of.
Thanks David. Good question. Yes it is waterproof and we leave it outside. We currently in NSW and has been raining pretty heavily and we have left it outside
Hey guys, do you know whether you can purchase the hardware (while it's on sale) & not have to link it up or start paying for internet use until later (when we're ready to use it?
I’m not 100% sure. When we ordered it and it arrived it took $174 for our first month. Just remember that you can pause it until you do need to use it. I’m not sure if and when you do it
So happy to see you now have so much more freedom of movement, awesome.

Too easy Ashley . Hope it helped 🙌🏻
Thanks Ashley! Hope it delivers what you are lookingnfor. Please feel free to reach out wiyh any questions!
@@suelandolt6840 now I need to find that job so I could hit the road full time 😊
Thanx guys, its amazing how you compared and show us how the products work.

Thank you guys 🙌🏻
Brilliant guys, will now buy this stuff
Thank you 🙌🏻
Great to hear Stephen, strongly recommend it 👍
Aw Derick you're a tech genius. ;-)
Going to order the bag didn’t know it was available, it wasn’t on their website when I last looked which was when I ordered the dish.
Thanks for the heads up on the travel bag, have ordered mine 👏
Too easy guys 🙌🏻 it really is handy
Awesome 👌
Great review, mine will be delivered next Monday. Thanks for the heads-up about Outcamp too, I have just now ordered the Starlink bag and a generator bag.

Well said 👏 👌 👍

You guys are the 6th TH-camr from Australia that showed this product 👏 and its the next thing to slice bread .
Awesome product 👌
Greetings from south africa 🇿🇦 😀
It is. Especially if you want to get off grid and be able to explore not worrying about internet 🙌🏻
Thanks for your ongoing support 😁
Great video Deryk, lots of good information, thanks for sharing. We can’t find much info on the website about plans, ie download limits. Is yours unlimited? Kind regards, Corrie
Awesome review, thank you.
Thank you 👍🏻
great video definitely made my decision easier not going to try piss around with the other options

Thank you. Appreciate feed back like this. Hope we can deliver great content moving forward. Yea Bob just plots along 😂 enjoy the rest of the week 🤙🏻
Sticking to flat bitumen road this week! Ahahah

Do you know if you can permanently mount it on the roof and leave it there without having issues due to dirt and weather?
Hi Tony, not sure to be honest. It is fully waterproof and automatically finds the satellite.

I do believe you can pause the subscription on a calendar month.

@@justvanningit legends, your amazing 🤩
I have just seen that Keelan and Sarah have got Starlink👍
Take care

Do you think you can use your existing Multi Directional booster Mast and stick ya Starlink on the end of it ? Keep it high and away from thieving Hands , I’m thinking quite a few Starlink dishes will go walking if not tethered in some fashion. Thanks for posting an honest review
But without the modem which also powers the dish it is pointless for anyone to steal it.
@@bobr6555 tell that to the shifty fingers , I guess they’ll get a rude shock selling it for quick bucks lol
Thanks Paul. It’s not a bad idea but if you need the dish to be in a better location than where your van is parked then it’s better to be able to move the dish around.
Theft is something to think of.
Are you running Telstra Wifi Calling so essentially you have phone reception via Starlink?
Worth the money if you travel. Would be awesome if it was 120 Mega "bytes" per second, alas it is Mega "bits". Still super fast for downloads
100% worth it, have already seen the benefits of it in just a few weeks!
Is it waterproof can u leave starlink out in the rain , great show guys 👍
Thanks David. Good question. Yes it is waterproof and we leave it outside. We currently in NSW and has been raining pretty heavily and we have left it outside
Thanks David, have a great week 😀
Starlink now half price until xmas
Such a great deal 👌
Yip, did mention that in the video 🙌🏻

And that’s why Australians think like convict’s could’ve would have should have and some one comes in and destroys the useless opposition 😂
