    Indeed. I wasn’t expecting service on 2/9.

    They said mid to late 2021.

    I’ll refrain from further expressions of disappointment through 12/31/21.

    LOL my dad's been looking things up asking me questions, and repeating others concerns. From the sounds of it he's seeing the concerns of others that don't understand they signed up for a beta service.

    Thanks @Sandman614 :thumbsup:

    It opens up with:

    The wait times seem to apply to new customers looking to pre-order the satellite internet service.

    Those of us who signed up early should check to see what their accounts say…


    Edit: checked mine and found my status unchanged. Still :confused: though…

    “Starlink is targeting coverage in your area in mid to late 2021.”

    When I plugged my address in as a new request, it gave me the early to mid 2022 date.

    I'm in Manitoba. I've had Starlink since the summer. When I first installed it we were only getting a minute or two total of downtime a day. Now it's pretty rare I even lose a second.

    Recently pre-ordered. Estimated wait is early 2022 in my area upon placing order. Need this for off-grid traveling cross country. Read that beta doesn't allow coordinates of the satellite to be mobile in beta.

    E.T. phone home...

    Reportedly, they’re no longer in beta.

    I think @.劉煒 rocks a mobile set up.

    @.劉煒 experiences during mobile? Is it worth?

    Highly considering cancelling cellular service & replacing it with Signal app to communicate with civilization. Garmin Inreach for emergencies.

    I think it’s good overall, he seems to have fun with it. He’ll jump in I’m sure to elaborate.

    Please keep us posted on how it develops for you :thumbsup:.

    It's just transported, not mobile. Only works in some cells.

    Self reported idiot here. What does that map mean to someone like me that lives in that area between Mcgregor and New Braunfels? "Soon"...or hurry up and wait still? Like some of you, my deposit continues to sit there with message "late 2021 availability"...

    And I was corrected last time I was here. Is this delay still related to chip shortage?

    Thanks guys
