Given their inherit latency, and cost; the equation for running everything via Wireguard is surly worth it.

I already do this on my Starlink as well as my terrestrial residential cable modem. The GL.inet routers work great for this.

Wireguard to where? Another ISP/VPN that can also sell/MITM your traffic just as well? Non-residential exit IPs are also very often blocked by many websites.

[ZiiS]

Residential ISPs are well setup for monitoring home traffic (and legally required to in most places). A VPS in a different jurisdiction is vastly less likely to be good at it.

[ZiiS]

You occasionally get blocked, but not that often if you can putup with a few more captchas. Can't remember it ever being more then a minor inconvenience and well worth this cost.

I never understood the business case for Starlink. You're either on fiber or 5G.

[deaux]

Exactly. I don't get the business case for cars too, you're either in a train or on a subway.

[whynotmaybe]

You're not the target audience.

In many places, 5G doesn't work and you have to pay a lot for fiber installation.

[manuelmoreale]

I live in a place with no fiber and no 5G. Here’s your business case.

[Saris]

There are massive areas in the US not covered by 5G, or any cell service. Are you just assuming that coverage is 100% everywhere?

Most places I'm at with 5G also have really poor speeds, usually under 10Mbps download with fairly high latency. Not really suitable for a primary internet connection.

Take your RV for an extended stay at the National Parks. RV parks are full of Starlinkers and I *love* the service. Roadtrips with kids are so much better too. The residential dish's in-motion performance is phenomenal and it's not even made for that.

You don’t even have to get very remote in Australia before the best on offer was dialup over copper before starlink.

… now multiply that by all the remote regions of earth.
