Why choose Starlink?
Starlink satellite internet offers speeds up to 400 Mbps, higher than any other satellite provider. Starlink has three residential internet plans with unlimited data starting at $55.00/mo., and with 99.8% U.S. coverage, there’s a strong chance of Starlink availability in your area.
Starlink satellite internet is ideal for rural users with few Wi-Fi options. It provides a reliable internet connection for farms, RVs, off-grid homesteads and remote job sites (including ships). Starlink can also serve as a backup internet service to stay online during emergencies like natural disasters.
Allconnect expert tip
Need to take Starlink on-the-go? With the Residential plans, you can add a $10.00/mo. mini kit for travel. Starlink also offers a mobile RV and a business service as well as maritime and aviation plans.

Starlink internet plans and pricing
Starlink’s residential internet plans can reach up to 400 Mbps in download speed, while upload speeds are slower at 10 – 20 Mbps. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) recommends at least 20 Mbps in consistent upload speed, so Starlink falls a bit short in comparison.

Our methodology
We evaluate broadband providers in four categories: affordability, performance, value and customer satisfaction. Each category contains multiple sub-factors, all of which are weighted differently to impact the provider’s overall score.
For each sub-factor, we score all providers on a continuous scale of one to five, relative to the industry as a whole. Because the average download speed in America is currently 290 Mbps, for example, we assigned all plans with download speeds between 100 and 299 Mbps a score between three and four. Xfinity’s 200 Mbps plan received a 3.50 score for download speed, while Spectrum’s 500 Mbps plan got a 3.71.
We only considered standardized data points in our scoring system. More abstract data like consistency of service and brand reputation is still part of our analysis, but we opted to let our writers address them in the context of each review.
Starlink internet highlights
Starlink is operated by SpaceX, a satellite internet provider specializing in high-speed, low-latency internet that services rural areas using low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites. Starlink benefits include unlimited data and low latency, but expect hefty equipment fees and a DIY installation.

Starlink Customer Reviews:
Starlink vs. top competitors
Although Starlink is more expensive than traditional cable and fiber internet plans, it is still a competitive option for rural users because it offers better performance than other satellite providers.
Cable and fiber providers like Xfinity, Verizon or Spectrum cost $30.00 to $50.00/mo. — cheaper than most satellite plans — and are better suited for gaming, streaming and large file transfers. However, satellite provides critical internet service for areas without any infrastructure.
| Provider | Starting price* | Deposit | Equipment cost | Download speed |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Starlink | $55.00 – $130.00/mo. | $99/refundable | $175 for self-installation | 100 – 400 Mbps |
| Hughesnet | $39.99 – $94.99/mo. | May be required | Starting at $9.99/mo. | 25 – 100 Mbps |
| Viasat | $39.99 – $99.99/mo.** | $300 without a contract | $109.94 including installation | 25 – 150 Mbps |
*Pricing per month plus taxes for length of contract. Additional fees and terms may apply. Pricing varies by location and availability. All prices subject to change at any time. May or may not be available based on service address. Speeds may vary. Updated as of 06/09/26.
**Prices increase by $30.00/mo. in month four. Pricing per month plus taxes for length of contract. Additional fees and terms may apply. Pricing varies by location and availability. All prices subject to change at any time. May or may not be available based on service address.
