Mine was still saying Mid/Late 2021 up until this week, I checked it after their email today and now it says March 2022. Hopefully the electric coop here will get me on their new fiber optic connection before then. The damn line is on my property but they won't hook me up right now because they are only doing customers that have their electric service which doesn't start until a few properties past mine.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Imzadi: Originally Posted By RyanEsstac: I wonder if the delays are caused by ground station, user hardware, or satellite delays.

While I now have starlink, I also was on the beta list in line since 2019.... so I was as frustrated, if not more than you guys a few months ago. If they're already shipping Dishy 2.0's I think the delays are coming from elsewhere..... I bet permitting for ground stations is one of the main issues. I believe the starlink is performing better speed wise in Europe and is way outperforming the US speedtests. It's the same satellites, but the ground infrastructure is what's different. Also I know Starlink did delay a few launches due to upgrading satellites...for the laser crosslinks.... so I think all 3 have a roll in delays, but knowing how the Starship launches are going, permitting is their biggest delay.... yeah government. |

I feel the deposit system was just a nice interest free loan to the wealthiest man. Should have been more clear up front to people who have had their deposits in since February. Especially those pushed to late 2022/2023. Regardless Internet options remain few for those like me, at least I have access to terrible cable and not Hughes net. |

I have been waiting since February when I put in my deposit. When I ordered I had an expected date of mid to late 2021, it was supposed to be first come first serve. I see people all over the globe ordering and getting dishies lower latitudes than me and now I get some lame excuse about silicon shortages and now get a date of March 2022!
