Anyone have starlink in North Arlington?

[Anonymous]

Currently on Verizon FiOS and its not reliable, no matter how many times we re-start our router and call Verizon, it isn't reliable.

Anyone use Starlink, and does that work well? Enough for zoom calls for two remote workers?

Starlink is lousy choice unless you’re somewhere with no other choice, like a rural area or a battlefield.

If you’re using wifi try plugging your laptop or whatever directly into the router. If that’s better then maybe you have a lot of interference. Use 5Ghz wifi if you’re not too far away from the router, 2.5Ghz if you’re on the other side of a few walls. You will get more interference on the latter from things like microwave ovens and cordless phones though.

If you are using WiFi, probably that is the problem - and Starlink WiFi is unlikely to be better.

When we lived in an apartment in Arlington, all the nearby apartments also had WiFi so performance was poor.

Fios is usually rock-solid; the culprit is likely your home router. Upgrade to the Unifi and you'll never restart your Wifi - it's that good.
