I have a Starlink setup that I take along in my rv. I pay a little more per month for the rv service, but the plus side is that service can be paused if I'm not using it for a month or two.
Starlink works great everywhere I have been, but yes, it needs a clear spot. The antenna has a steerable phased array apparently. Once it finds itself it seldom moves. It is also heated to melt any snow accumulation. Speed does reduce with heavy clouds, but is still usable unlike Dish TV.
Overall I am really happy with it. The only real downer is the twisted pair antenna cable has easily broken wires. However, ethernet adapters are available. Just get some and some heavy cat6 and you're good to go.
