Apparently the “home” system works OK but you really want the “business” connection. It’s spendy but apparently fast and reliable - or at least orders of magnitudes better than anything else you can get in a rural area.

The satellite panel can be mounted or sand bagged to the roof. They tried the sandbag first but it wasn’t great so they (and their neighors) hard mounted it. That seemed to have helped improved stability about (though they aren’t fully certain there isn’t some placebo in that).

I have also thought about getting it as a backup. But, from what I’m
gathering, high speed internet from say Comcast - particularly if you have the highest end speed - is wildly better. At least at this stage in Sterlink’s evolution.

Exactly, in a forested rural setting someone, not any of us because we are older, would have to climb up on the old TV antennae tower and mount it on there. Then there is still no guarantee we'd find a line of sight.

Electromagnetic radiation emitted from Starlink dishes sickens and kills pets and wildlife

Yes, I've noticed that too. Absolutely nobody seems to care about any of the dangers related to this technology and now Starlink is looking into using lazer beams to Earth. I guess having the technology trumps any dangers involved and nobody wants to know.
