Newcomer Starlink in Argentina

[Oatmeal]

Is it fairly stable? Does it ever go down or not work? This sounds like a great set up. Were you able to set it up yourself @Oatmeal or did you have to hire someone to set it up for you? My girlfriend's parents are thinking of adding this to their country house. They have service out there but it is always going down. Going to give them your set up.

I can't think of a time the service was down. As long as you have electricity, you will be fine. Cloudy days maybe 120MB which I noticed. Easy to set up and you use the app to find a place with no obstruction. You do it yourself. Placement of the dish is up to you.

That's awesome @Oatmeal. Thanks for posting your first hand experiences with Starlink. It's really amazing technology. I have several friends using it but none of them are in CABA so great to read about your experiences with it and how stable it is. That is a great price too because internet prices keep going up now.

The province of Córdoba has already installed more than 825 Starlink antennas and Cisco technological floors in rural schools.

The objective is to reach 871 educational institutions across the entire Córdoba territory before the start of the 2025 academic year.

Key Features of the Project

Connectivity Speed: Each Starlink antenna provides 300 megabits per second of high-quality connectivity, significantly improving access to digital educational resources.

Technological Infrastructure: The installation includes not only Starlink antennas but also Cisco technological floors, which ensure stable and secure WiFi coverage throughout the school buildings and up to 20 meters around them.

Impact on Education: This project facilitates online learning, video conferencing, and access to educational platforms, bridging the gap between rural and urban educational opportunities.

Community Benefits: Beyond education, the connectivity enables local communities to access digital services, conduct remote work, and engage in online commerce, fostering economic development.

Coverage Goal: The ultimate goal is to reach all 871 rural educational institutions before the start of the 2025 school year.

Current Progress: With over 825 installations completed, the project is on track to meet its target, making it one of the largest satellite connectivity initiatives in the region.

This initiative highlights Córdoba's commitment to digital equity and educational advancement in rural areas.
