Thanks for the tests!

The dl/ul speeds 300/15 mbit/s are impressive.

"Speeds" (observed data rates) in terms of Starlink hardware are actually fairly meaningless as they depend on:

  * Satellite(s) involved in the data transfer over the duration of the
    measurement(s).
  * Load on those satellites, which depends on the number of other
    current users whose traffic goes via those birds, and what these
    users are up to. Note this changes between handovers.
  * RTT to other end of transfer path.
  * Packet loss (including beyond Starlink's network)

Unless a Dishy is able to handle communication via multiple satellites in parallel, I would expect the rates to be the same more or less regardless of model used. In fact, I would expect a Dishy model that is able to align itself to do marginally better over time.


At video pointer 5:53 the reported Ping ?/dl/ul 88/204/121 ms and Jitter
9.2 ms seem interesting.

    ==> I am not sure which of the two (ping or jitter) you name 'latency'?
All of them I guess.

    ==> I am not sure why the dl (download) ping ms is higher than the ul.
Because that is where you have the longer queues.

    ==> I don't know what is the first ('?') parameter reported as 88ms
for Ping?

I presume unloaded ping RTT. The second is ping RTT during the download test (with inbound queues loaded), the last is ping RTT during the upload test (with outbound queues loaded).

I'd also note here that these are values obtained from Kyiv, which isn't a Starlink environment that is easy to assess. For one, we don't know whether there are Starlink gateways in Ukraine, or if there are, where they'd be.

One could find 'Kyiv' in the list shown by https://geoip.starlinkisp.net/feed.csv

(not sure whether that is a teleport or a point of presence without satcom access).

 We don't know where else there may be gateways - not
every jurisdiction publishes this - or whether Starlink may even be operating opportunistic fair weather optical gateways which they don't have to disclose to anyone. Plus we don't know what may be carted into the area or away from it via laser links to gateways much further away.


I wonder whether the DHCPv6-PD is still supported by REV4 and whether
the allocated prefix is still a non-/64 (i.e. a /56 delivered by
DHCPv6-PD reported earlier on this email list by Steven on Dec. 12, 2023)?
