Starlink Installation Services in Torquay, Paignton & Brixham

What it is

Starlink is a constellation of satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO) that provide internet access to over 100 countries and territories. It's operated by Starlink Services, LLC, a subsidiary of SpaceX, the aerospace company founded by Elon Musk. 

• How it works

  Starlink's satellites provide internet access to areas where it's unreliable or nonexistent via a dish at the users property. The system is designed to be efficient and cost-accessible. 

• Features

  Starlink offers: 

  • Residential service for households 

  • Roaming service for connecting on the go 

  • Boat service for connecting on the water 

• Speed

  In the UK, Starlink's average download speed is 106.1 Mbps, and its average upload speed is 9.72 Mbps. 

  Starlink satellites are visible from Earth, and you can learn when and where to look for them. 

Starlink is the perfect solution for people who are unable to get fast broadband through traditional providers due to location constraints or poor network coverage in their area. If you live in a rural or remote area, or if you’ve been struggling with slow speeds or poor signal quality from other providers, Starlink can offer a game-changing internet experience.

With speeds that typically exceed 106 Mbps for downloads (although I regularly see speeds double these figures.), Starlink is an ideal choice for:

• Remote workers who need reliable internet for video conferencing and file uploads
• Households that require fast internet for streaming, gaming, and everyday use
• Businesses in rural or remote locations needing consistent and high-speed internet connectivity

Starlink is perfect for anyone who is unable to get fast broadband from any of the traditional suppliers, due to location or unavailability of fast internet in your area.

Currently in the UK, Starlink's average download speed is 106.1 Mbps, and its average upload speed is 9.72 Mbps. although I regularly see speeds double these figures.

Yes, if you need greater Wi-Fi coverage around your property, Torbay Digital can help extend the range of your Starlink network. We can install Wi-Fi access points throughout your property, ensuring a strong Wi-Fi signal in every corner of your home or business, just like we would for any other internet provider.

A typical Starlink installation involves the following steps:

1. Site Survey: We’ll perform an on-site survey to check for any potential obstructions in the sky that could block the satellite signal. We’ll also assess the best location for the Starlink dish.

2. Dish Mounting: Once a location is selected, we’ll choose the appropriate mounting bracket to securely hold the dish. Starlink dishes are large and relatively heavy, so wind load will be considered when choosing a mounting option.

3. Routing and Setup: We’ll route the cable from the dish to your router and set up the Starlink service. After installation, we’ll connect any devices to the network and test the connection.

4. Demonstration: After installation, we’ll demonstrate how to use the Starlink system and ensure everything is running smoothly.

The cost of Starlink installation varies depending on your property’s location, the complexity of the setup, and the specific equipment needed. Torbay Digital offers a free site survey to assess your needs and provide you with a no-obligation quote for the installation.

Once you approve the quote, we’ll proceed with a quick and efficient installation, and you’ll be connected to the Starlink network in no time.
