I'm glad Starlink solved your problem Patrice, I remember when you changed. It would be good if you clicked Speedtest.net
so Rich and I can compare it with our wireless broadband
Starlink avoids local 'peak' slow downs because their satellites are spread out (the constellation) and moving. There is good info on Starlink here.
I guess when satellites fail they are replaced by another batch.
Starlink is more expensive than my ''unlimited'' broadband
'Residential Starlink plans in Australia cost $139 per month for unlimited data. However, you'll need to buy or rent hardware to access the services. Your options include: Paying $599 upfront or $299 for refurbished hardware'.
This is what they used to get my internet back while they fixed the downed power lines.
A 3-phase diesel generator. It's quiet and could power-up a house easily. I think it could be re-fueled while running. The issue was so many damaged power lines at once.
