Starlink’s Internet Still Works On A 3000-Metres Snow Mountain

Elon Musk promises that next year, the network speed of Starlink’s satellite internet service will double to 300 Mbps with a latency of only 20ms. For many users, this isn’t enough.

However, Elon Musk emphasizes that Starlink will be like many other broadband satellite internet services. It will target customers who live in areas with low to medium population density.

And to see if this is true, a Starlink beta user with a Reddit account called u/Wolf__lodge conducted a test by bringing the satellite pan of Starlink to a height of 3,269 meters.

The first problem that he encountered was how to bring the device to the location safely. After the installation, he tested the network speed and the results were satisfactory.

The YouTube video on his table ran almost instantly. Such fast network speeds for those living in remote areas are commendable.

In a Twitter post, Musk mentioned that the mobile internet would always have an advantage in densely populated areas. So if you are living in a big city, Starlink can hardly become your main carrier.

As for those in areas with no access to the internet, Starlin’s service may be the bridge to connect them to the colorful internet world. The current speed of Starlink’s internet service is backed by 1,000 of the 42,000 satellites expected to be in orbit. Once SpaceX completes the project, the internet will cover most of the Earth by the end of 2021.
