Very interesting, I’ve done full zoom lessons for hours and almost never had connectivity issues like that. Our dish has full open sky view, so that may be part of a difference, as well I think it’s the first version of the dish, not one of the later ones.
Have been using starlink for more than 2 years at this point and can confirm from my view that there are very few connection issues. I’ve almost never looked at my connection as the issue when gaming since getting it. It either went down completely for a few hours (2 times I can remember) or was very solid.
EDIT: Not excusing or fanboying for Musk, as his personal direction has been questionable in recent years. But talking about the technology perspective.
Link for context…he didn’t know statutory rape stood for sex with children as he is not a native speaker. This does not excuse other things he has said that may be terrible, but cancel culture is a cancer.
Recently set up Nextcloud, but ran into trouble getting it to connect with a domain because of Starlink being the ISP. Found out about tailscale and have been getting things connected and accessible with Tailscale’s magic DNS that it uses.
Currently trying to figure out how to use the iOS tailscale app to connect to an exit node, which will be my server at home, but it’s not easy. Apparently it can be done through the shortcuts and automation on the iPhone, but can’t sort out a way to connect easily that doesn’t throw errors with no good documentation to say what I’ve done wrong.
For sure should be fine connection wise, maybe it is the connection on the ground that starlink has a connection with. Not meaning at your coworker’s place, but on the ISP end. Unfortunately not something that can really be addressed.
