My original thought was this would be more like Client Optimized Roaming with 
WiFi access points.

Communication between the client dish or base station and satellites to 
transparently move client dish and base station from satellites moving out of 
view to a satellite in view.

Subject: Starlink routing

I read in the Economist that the gen of starlink satellites will have the 
ability to route messages between each satellite. Would conventional routing 
protocols be up to such a challenge? Or would it have to be custom made for 
that problem? And since a lot of companies and countries are getting on that 
action, it seems like fertile ground for (bad) wheel reinvention?
