Re: Beta Starlink with a slight tree obstruction vs degraded DOCSIS3 last mile

I'd much rather have 0.11 to 0.25% average packet loss over a 3 to 24 hour
period than 2-3%.

The starlink experience is overall superior at present from a subjective
user point of view.

I don't know how you can be embarrassed when you have a pretty solid
30ms ping constantly, and Starlink has jitter all over the place and
spikes as high as 280ms.

I'll take the DOCSIS3 system....

I thought I would post an interesting comparison between a degraded
DOCSIS3 link, of a carrier that shall remain nameless to avoid
embarrassing anybody, and a starlink CPE with a slight 1/12th tree
obstruction in a portion of its view.

First two screenshots are the docsis3, to its gateway and to a very
reliable hosted asterisk system in Seattle.

Second two screenshots are starlink, also to its gateway and to the same
destination.
