A coworker lives out I the middle of nowhere but has Starlink to keep him connected and working fully remote. Literally once a meeting he drops mid-sentence and when his frozen face comes back to life he's yelling "GOD DAMNIT ELON". Never fails to get a chuckle.
Very interesting, I’ve done full zoom lessons for hours and almost never had connectivity issues like that. Our dish has full open sky view, so that may be part of a difference, as well I think it’s the first version of the dish, not one of the later ones.
He does ham radio and we just built him a 20m high tower for it with the Starlink dish mounted at the top to look over any possible trees etc. it's not obstructions 🤷♂️
For sure should be fine connection wise, maybe it is the connection on the ground that starlink has a connection with. Not meaning at your coworker’s place, but on the ISP end. Unfortunately not something that can really be addressed.
