Starlink internet in Trinidad and Tobago

Internet from satellite provider Starlink is now available in Trinidad and Tobago.
Because the service uses a connection via radio waves from hundreds of miles away in space the connection speed can vary depending on weather and atmospheric conditions. 
All prices below are TTD. 

The residential plan starts at $365 / month for service and $3,900 for hardware and shipping is required at $154.00. This gives a total of $4054.00. 
The typical speed you can expect during peak ours are 100 Mbps down, 10Mbps up.
It may vary from 25-100 mbps down / 5-10Mbps up.


You would want to choose this option if you are in an area without a wired connection from the other major internet providers. The high cost of purchasing equipment and relatively lower speed compared to a wired provider means this will not be the first choice for most people. 


The business plan has three options depending on the amount of data you need.
1TB Priority Data for $1080 
2TB Priority Data for $2149 
6TB Priority Data for $6446 

There is an additional $19,082 for hardware and $653.34 for shipping giving a total of $19,735.59 if you choose the 1TB plan. 

The features are -Priority Data, which includes faster speeds (typically 40-220 Mbps download, 8-25 Mbps upload) and top network priority
-Publicly routable IPv4 address. Read more here.
-Dedicated priority support
-Enterprise dashboard for remote monitoring & network management
-Unlimited service locations. Order your first Starlink on this page; once complete, you can add locations on your account portal

A business would probably choose this if they want a backup internet connection to failover or load balance to with a wired primary connection from one of the big ISPs.

The roam plan features Mobile - Regional or Global: can be used on land wherever there's Starlink coverage throughout your continent (Regional) or the world (Global). Supports portable use.
Mobile Priority - 50GB: can be used on ocean, land, and in motion with the 50GB of Mobile Priority Data, which enables our fastest network speeds for consumers. After using all Mobile Priority Data, includes unlimited Mobile Data on land anywhere Starlink has service around the world. In-motion use is only approved with the Flat High Performance terminal. This plan and the Flat High Performance are only available in select markets.

You would use this plan if you will be taking our equipment to different sites and countries. 
This plan starts at $455/month for service and $3,900 for hardware and shipping is required at $154.00. This gives a total of $4509.00. 
You may choose a flat high performance dish instead of a standard for better connectivity during bad weather and other harsh conditions. This would instead have a dish cost of $19,082

No contract is required for these plans. Delivery is currently 1-2 weeks from ordering.
