Reply to comment by OrdinaryTension in Cell Coverage in VT - Now I know... to switch provider by ExpressionFamiliar98

Ya I keep hearing this not for me though. And how can 250/250 for over a hundred bucks be a good deal in any world for fiber? Fiduim is about 70 for a gig same with BTC. EVFiber is 134 for a gig way too much IMO and VTell is 39.95 right now for a gig. With the tax pay payer funds they have been getting they should pass it on.

And for the Starlink stuff just ran a test while making this reply 205/18 and here is the link before you call BS it's timestamped too.

I was seeing speeds around 75/20 when I cancelled starlink in August. Sometimes it would go up to maybe 120/20, but it depended on the time of day. For some unknown reason it would also drop out for a couple of minutes around 2pm each day, We get 40/20 from TMobile, it's more consistent and a lot cheaper.

40/20 would kill me got 5 kids all with toys we need the bandwidth. Going on about a year now with Starlink no issues with slowing speeds at all. In fact it's has gotten a bit faster now. Sometime in the last few weeks it started spending a fair part of the day pointed more easterly instead of north. Getting to some unused sats over the Atlantic would be my guess.
