Between move-in day and whatever appointment window your provider gave you, there's often a gap — sometimes days, sometimes weeks. If you work from home, that gap isn't really optional. Rent a Starlink and stay fully connected from the moment you move in, no waiting on a technician.
Most providers book installation appointments days to weeks out, especially during busy moving seasons — leaving new residents with no internet at exactly the wrong time.
Video calls, VPN access, and deadlines don't pause for a cable installation window. A Starlink gets your home office online the same day you move in.
Brand-new subdivisions often see ISP infrastructure lag even further behind than established neighborhoods — sometimes by months, not days.
Switching ISPs, dealing with a canceled installation, or just needing internet before you've picked a permanent provider — a rental covers the in-between without a long-term commitment.
As long as you need — our base rate is $25/day with a 2-day minimum, or $150 for a full week. If your installation date keeps slipping, just message us to extend; there's no penalty for stretching it out week to week.
Yes — typical speeds of 150-300 Mbps down and 20-50 Mbps up comfortably handle video calls, VPN connections, and normal work-from-home use, even with multiple people online.
No — book for however long you think you'll need it, and extend or return early as your actual installation date becomes clear. There's no contract beyond the rental itself.
It needs a reasonably open view of the sky, so a window, balcony, or patio facing away from tall buildings works best. Ground-floor units surrounded by taller buildings can be trickier — happy to talk through your specific spot before you book.
Just return the kit in Salt Lake City (or arrange a pickup for an additional fee) whenever your permanent service is up and running — no need to wait until a scheduled end date.
