Adam apparently has a sister who keeps making false claims against her siblings hoping for a payout. Apparently the most recent claims were against Adam alledging abuse while they were both kids. I'm guessing this it's what he's referring to unless I missed something else. On Wed, Jul 15, 2020,

[AFMUG] OT: Details on the Starlink router

There are some details in this story that were new to me. One of the ones that popped up was that each group of 60 Starlink satellites is expected to support ~~ 40,000 subscribers. That puts the 800 satellite "moderate service level" at supporting about half a million subscribers (~~ 533,000).

Re: [AFMUG] OT: Details on the Starlink router

Doing some math: 40K subscribers on 60 satellites is 666 subs/satellite if equally loaded. But load is far from equal, the planet surface is 70% water. I don't know how much the "standard" orbit is over water but let's say 50% as it's further from the poles. Say that at any point in time, around ha

Re: [AFMUG] OT: Details on the Starlink router

The FCC allowed them 2Ghz of bandwidth for the satellite to user terminal.  20Gbps must assume 10 bits/hz.  Or maybe they mean a different sense of "capacity".  The journalistic sources are never precise about these things. I've been assuming that just like any other wireless you can't put the

Re: [AFMUG] OT: Details on the Starlink router

Don't forget that these are LEO. I don't know for certain, but I get the impression that each group of 60 satellites represents a ring of sorts. That would put about 6° of separation between each of the sats in one ring. There will also be overlapping rings at som

Yeah, it doesn’t consume uplink bandwidth. But I learned that with canopy all those years ago. (18 years ago?) We started out selling 256k+ burst. Then as competition came in we doubled it to 512k without increasing cost. Customers loved it. Our upstream connection hardly increased. Later

Re: [AFMUG] OT: Details on the Starlink router

Wouldn't you be better off selling one plan like Google? A gig for $70. Or at least get rid of the $50 plan. Do 50 Meg for $60 and gig for $70. That way it's almost a no brainer to go with the gig. 20x more speed for only $10 more!!! I bet your profit would be higher overall, even with slightly fe
