@DanSmith, What is your setup such as what point of use devices are you using (PC windows, Apple, phones, tablets etc.) and also if you run your devices off Starlink's wifi, or if you have your own router or if you connect to a pc via an ethernet? Are all your devices affected the same? Basic steps I use to help me have a more complete picture: My phone (Samsung S7) is always connected via the Starlink router (wifi) and is the device that my Starlink app is on. For me the Starlink app speed tests always look great, but don't necessarily reflect my real performance. My main point of use is my pc with Windows 10 and is connected directly via a Cat6 cable. On my pc I run a couple of different speed tests through my Chrome browser (the results shown above). While still not a perfect test, it does tell me real performance. Also, I go into Task Manager (windows 10), select the performance tab, then click on Ethernet in the left panel while I'm doing a large update or streaming a movie. This accurately shows the data throughput at my nic card (on motherboard) which allows me to compare to the browser based speed tests and what the Starlink app tests are showing to what my ethernet is actually receiving. While I was waiting for my ethernet adapter (I have version 2 dish), I used a USB wifi adapter plugged into my pc. I had similar issues to what you described. At first I was resetting the Starlink router which helped, but soon learned the issue was with the usb wifi adapter. I had to force a reset on it a couple of times a day. Once my ethernet adapter came, and I was hardwired to Starlink, I no longer had this issue. You are pretty far north and should have good satellite coverage (at least compared to points south) if you are in North America. Is your view clear according to the Starlink app?

wow!

Woot! Closest I've come to 300mbs. And look at that latency. 😉

"Can I ask what your previous provider was delivering? " Lol! I could be a poster person for Starlink. I live right on the U.S./CA border in central Washington state at 4,000' elev (winter is 5 months long). There is no local internet available in any form, as I'm in a very remote area 30 minutes drive from the nearest very small town. Except for two neighbors .5 miles and 1.2 miles away, my next closest neighbors are in Canada. There are no U.S. cell towers around. I pull from Canadian cell towers. I have an AT&T business plan which gives me 100gb of tethering each month which I very carefully managed. (I'm told this plan is no longer offered, fyi). For over two years, I tethered my phone to my pc for internet. I would average 2-3mbs download and less than 1mbs upload, with about 60-70ms latency. I occasionally would see 15mbs download, but that was extremely rare and only briefly. I'm definitely a happy camper now!

So I wanted to update my post since I have now received the ethernet port addon. My pc is now hardwired to Starlink. I am fairly consistently getting 175-200mbs download, 15+ upload and still getting 20-27ms latency. Occasionally, I get 240-280, 20-25 which is great. And that is running speed test on my pc through Google, so it's what I'm actually experiencing at the pc. I do get 1-3 disconnects each day. They usually last less than a minute. The longest one in the three weeks I've had it set up was about five minutes.

I've had version 2 dish for almost two weeks. By the second day I was getting 120mbs-225mbs dl, 10-18mbs ul and 20-27ms latency. Starting last week my speeds dropped to 60-120mbs dl, 6-12mbs ul, 24-27ms latency. I'm located on the U.S./CA border in central Washington state.
