Meanwhile, I still have received no word from Starlink despite them now having more satellites in orbit than all other satellites combined. I made my deposit in 2021 and watched as the date was pushed to 2022--which it still says on my account even though Connor has pointed out that it says 2023 for our area when we look at the map without signing in. I'm still maintaining my optimism.
In general, our Internet speeds could be a lot worse, so I try to stay positive about them too. Likely, it's the demands of more and more devices on our Wi-Fi that is probably dragging down the entire service. We can still stream shows with few interruptions, and while downloading software is not as fast as I would like, it is still feasible.
However, it's been another ten minutes since I last checked, and my IOS 16 download now says "28 minutes remaining."
