Starlink Internet Speeds

Starlink Internet Speeds 2024 with Broadband Compare
Monday, 8 April 2024

One of the concerns that rural Kiwi households face is slow internet. Unlike urban regions such as Auckland suburbs, households in regional areas of the country are unlikely to be hooked up to fibre broadband connections. 

Starlink is a broadband provider, who offers satellite broadband services to rural New Zealand homes. Many rural households are choosing to make the switch to Starlink’s services. Why? Because these plans deliver speed!

Starlink offers two wireless broadband plans for rural households. 

The Standard Plan

For $159 per month, rural households can enjoy speeds of up to 243/41 Mbps, with unlimited data.

The Deprioritized Plan

For $79 per month, rural households can enjoy speeds of up to 243/41 Mbps, with unlimited data. 

The deprioritized plans are prioritised after the standard plans. This means that during busy hours of broadband use, the households on the deprioritized plans will experience slower speeds. However, these speeds are still fast! Deprioritized plans are seeing speeds that are neck-in-neck with low-end fibre broadband. How good!

High Speed, Lower Latency

With higher speeds, and lower latency, everyone in your household can enjoy streaming and gaming, with less lagging and buffering. If you work from home, you will experience less buffering of video calls and will be able to receive messages faster. Stay connected, without falling behind!
