Thank you, very informative. When Starlink does make it mobile could a person use some type of adapter and connect to the satellite rg6 in port on their RV to accept the Starlink cat5 cable? John
Hey Jake H, I'm sure there is some sort of conversion kit that someone could rig up out there to do this. It would be tricky, expensive and unknown therefore a diagnostic nightmare. We've done plenty of work on R.V.s. Although they can be tight to get into, you can usually fish cables through them. Running a Cat6/5 cable to your router placement should be relatively easy and then having a junction where you could plug in Dishy would be a better way to do this. This would eliminate any possible problems from other things being hooked inline, making any issues down the road(hopefully none) easier to diagnose. Don't forget that the router doesn't have to be inside the R.V. living area either, it could be sitting in a storage compartment or closet. As long as the WI-FI signals can pass through whatever its hidden in. I would even guess to say if your in a densely populated R.V. park you could supply WI-FI for a few of your neighbours, Albeit you might not want to do that:) I hope they figure out a mobile version soon, it is going to make a lot of people very very happy! Thank you for the comment. P.S we're working on a R.V. video to release.
Hey Ghost, It really depends on the day. I would say we're usually above the 50Mbps most of the time, There have been a few days that I received only 10Mbps for a few hours. Uploads have been more consistent at 20 Mbps all day long. On the days I received those lower numbers I did some testing and it wasn't on our end, so likely to do with the beta trials. Hope this helps.

thank you, love the video 👌🏼
*thank you for the coverage, but I've got a question 🤔, what's your average down n up during the day?*
