Always on the lookout when it comes to innovative technology, COH Surveyors trialled Starlink as a proof of concept, for just two hours. It was incredibly successful, outperforming the current internet supplier hands down, in both up and download speeds.
“Being in a rural location, our office relied on the outdated copper network, and our broadband provider could not guarantee when we would be upgraded to fibre. As our workload grew, we needed a faster broadband connection.
The Starlink system provided the technical solution, with the added advantage of being significantly cheaper and less disruptive than bringing a leased line to the site. It is also fully portable, should we ever need to move it“

Starlink, an internet service provided by SpaceX, has been outstanding since its inception in 2019, with more than 5000 low earth satellites travelling above the earth at 17,000 mph, each orbiting the Earth in about 90 minutes. For those working in remote or hard-to-access areas, Starlink has been a game changer, as it offers speedy, stable stress-free internet.
