   @_L1vY_ @kcarruthers If you use wireless devices and can receive 5G, it's usually the better bet. Satellite comms can be slow. That's why Starlink and others operate in low earth orbit. They need to get closer to avoid really long transmission times. Good luck!

     @kcarruthers In PA for now. I just wondered if there were options generally. For the uncharted territory we're entering. Who knows what will fall apart and what will not. 🤷🏻♀️

     @kcarruthers Ok thanks. So 5G is separate from Starlink.

     Is there a wireless way to get internet that is not Starlink?
