SpaceX’s Starlink is finding lots of new customers for its satellite internet program, momentum that’s proving fruitful for Starlink but detrimental to its subscribers. Many customers have found their connection speeds have dropped severely in the last few months as more subscribers connect to Starlink’s satellite arrays — a problem reported in Starlink’s earliest days, too.
Some Starlink users have found their download speeds so slow as to become essentially unusable. Current Starlink subscribers in various geographic locations told PCMag they’d experienced fast speeds for a while before “it got predictably bad every day.”
