(Me= vanlife.)

If you have your starlink satellite thing mounted on top of your vehicle, the only time you can get internet is when you are within range of your vehicle, right?

In case there’s no Wi-Fi available, and you’re away from your vehicle, which is a situation that is pretty constant in my life.

I presume there’s no starlink hotspot to carry around(?)

Like it’s been nice to have my Verizon hotspot “Orbic” shitty little thing when my phone’s unlimited data service is slow or spotty but even the Orbic has shitty service sometimes.

I definitely want to abandon evil extortionate Verizon. Please tell me if I become a starlink customer, I won’t be able to use my phone indoors at work which doesn’t allow us to use their Wi-Fi, And when I’m walking around town, what to do for internet?

Please tell me your most highly recommended ISP that isn’t extortionate & manipulative.

We’re not homeless, we’re houseless! By choice or by circumstance we are living in our vehicles. Don’t worry about us – it can be a very good life.

Anything that affects us as vehicle-dwellers is probably on topic.

rules of engagement

  • be civil
  • use descriptive thread titles. Pro tip: “Help” or “Question” are not descriptive titles.
  • old-timers: assume people are different and have different needs, preferences, budgets, and use cases
  • newbies: demonstrate effort and willingness to learn; you’ll need it on the road anyhow. Links have been added below to help get you started. When asking question state your “use case” (what you are trying to accomplish); we are terrible guessers.
  • tire-kickers: yes, we’ve heard that “in a van down by the river” joke. It was hi-larious in 1993.
