Tex_T Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 OK, first off new starlink user. Have not had more than a month I live in the Dallas, Ft Worth area, the reason I signed up is I have been told my neighborhood will never receive fiber or high speed internet. I'm stuck at 70 Mbps download at best, with I hate to say At&T. Well we had our first spring storm tonight, for This area was not the worst we had but it did rain hard for a bit, I was without service for over 21 min, while the storm rolled through. Is this what I should expect ? just curios what other people have encountered. is this the norm. I know 70 download isn't terrible (not great either) but it does not go down during a storm. Just trying to determine if I need to return or not.. How bout some feed back. Thanks, Trey Quote Link to comment https://starlinkforum.net/topic/97-am-i-expecting-to-much/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarlinkLeader Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 I suspect the groundstation feeding the sat for your geocell was infact effected by the same storm. - Yes you will get interference during storms causing signal loss. - No signal received indicates your terminal could not connect to any starlink sats during the storm. Id also assume that the newer dish units the rectangle model - Will handle weather impacts better ( enhancements from the first models ) 1 Quote Link to comment https://starlinkforum.net/topic/97-am-i-expecting-to-much/#findComment-270 Share on other sites More sharing options...
