Starlink Compared to Other Internet Providers

See how Starlink measures up against some of the prominent satellite, DSL, and 5G home internet providers in terms of price, speed, data allowance, and more.

Satellite Internet Provider Starting Price Download Speed Range Data Allowance Best For Learn More
hughesnet $39.99/mo.1 Up to 100 Mbps Unlimited General web browsing, basic remote work, online shopping Order Now
viasat $74.99/mo.2 25 – 150 Mbps Unlimited Streaming music, light video streaming, social networking Order Now
starlink $55/mo.3 80 – 320 Mbps*** Unlimited Online gaming, large file transfers, remote work, video calling Order Now

Insight: Many rural users choose Starlink mainly because its low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites deliver higher speeds and lower latency than traditional satellite internet. This makes activities like video conferencing, online gaming, and HD streaming possible even in remote locations.

Offer may vary by geographic area. ‡$39.99 per month represents a $10 per month savings for 12 months on the Lite plan and reflects the applied $5 savings for ACH enrollment. $5 savings apply as long as ACH enrollment is maintained. Monthly Lease Fee may be additional. Certain geographic areas are not eligible to receive offer. New residential subscribers only. Limited-time offer. Other terms may apply. Up to 100 Mbps Speed: Each Hughesnet service plan is designed to deliver the download/upload speeds assigned to that specific plan, however, speeds and uninterrupted use are not guaranteed and may vary based on a variety of factors including, but not limited to the number of concurrent network users.
