California Starlink Installation Services

• Starlink says that you can expect a speed between 25-225 Mbps with latency around 20–40 ms, a notable improvement for rural locations. However, what we’re used to seeing as professional California Starlink installers, considering there are little to no obstructions, you should be somewhere in the neighborhood of 170 Mbps – 300 Mbps. That is based on a nationwide average using over 3,000 installs as examples.
• There are now 2 residential plans to choose from as of 05/01/2025 – The Residential unlimited plan for $120 per month, and the newly added Residential Lite plan for $80 per month. Residential Lite customers may experience some slower speeds during peak hours. In either event, you can pause, reactivate, upgrade, or downgrade whenever you choose.

• Starlink’s California business plans typically deliver speeds of 300-450 Mbps from device to internet and 450-900 Mbps from device to router in optimal conditions. While these speeds are not Starlink’s official estimates, they reflect what we commonly see during installations with no obstructions.

The Starlink Enterprise hardware usually costs $700, while the Flat High Performance hardware is about $2,500 (currently $1,500). Monthly plans start at $65 for 50GB, $165 for 500GB, $290 for 1TB, and $540 for 2TB of priority data (as of 05/01/2025).

Starlink offers two popular California Roam plans tailored for users who need regular, reliable internet while traveling, in-motion, camping, or working remotely:

• Roam 50GB – Priced at $50 per month, this plan includes 50 GB of Roam data. It’s ideal for occasional or low-usage travelers who need internet access for light browsing or basic work tasks while on the road.

• Roam Unlimited – At $165 per month, this plan provides unlimited Roam data, making it a great choice for full-time RVers, digital nomads, and those who need consistent connectivity on the go.

Key Features of Starlink Roam Plans:

• Countrywide Coverage – Stay connected across the U.S., even in remote areas where traditional internet providers fall short.

• In-motion Use – Starlink Roam supports use while in motion up to 100 mph (160 km/h).

• International Travel – Roam plans allow internet access beyond U.S. borders in eligible service areas.

• Coastal Coverage – Ideal for boaters and coastal travelers who need connectivity near shorelines.

• Pause Service Anytime – You can pause and resume your service as needed with no long-term contract.

Starlink Mini Option:
For ultra-portable needs, the Starlink Mini is a compact, backpack-sized kit perfect for travel. It includes a built-in WiFi router, lower power consumption, DC power input, and can deliver download speeds over 100 Mbps.

Need Faster In-Motion Speeds?
The Starlink Flat High-Performance dish is specifically designed for in-motion use. It offers better connectivity in tough environments with download speeds up to 220 Mbps and upload speeds up to 25 Mbps, outperforming the standard dish for high-speed mobile use.

• Our California Starlink installation services include dish mounting, cable installation, and router setup, with prices starting at $599. The even better news is that we partner with Stripe for payments, giving you the option to split your installation fee into 4–6 monthly payments! Pricing may vary based on location, congestion, and installation complexity. Either way, there are no surprise fees ever added – the quote you’re given is the final price. We strive to complete your installation within 72 hours, significantly faster than the typical 3-week wait. Interested in getting your Starlink installed by the experts? Contact us for a free quote and consultation.

• Each installation is unique, but for most California residential setups, the process typically takes 3 to 4 hours. In some cases, it can be completed in as little as 1.5 hours, depending on mounting requirements and site conditions. After installation, Starlink may take up to 12 hours to fully optimize, as it downloads updates and maps satellite connections for the best performance. The good news? We’ll be able to confirm that your system is working and provide a clear idea of what your regular speeds should be after optimization.

• Absolutely! Using tools like Google satellite view, we can assess your home or business and recommend the ideal mount or accessories for a seamless Starlink installation in California. If you need help determining what type of mount is best for your situation, contact us. We’d be happy to go over everything with you and have you a complete evaluation, equipment recommendations, and a final quote in less than 10 minutes, at no extra cost!

If Starlink is at capacity in your area of California, you can join their waitlist through the official Starlink website. However, there are still ways to get service sooner:

• Starlink Roam – This plan allows you to order Starlink for use in areas where capacity is available and then bring it to your location. Keep in mind that performance may vary in high-capacity regions.
• Flat High Performance – Since this plan is designed for mobility, it may still be available even in areas where residential service is full.
• Business Plans – Starlink sometimes prioritizes business and enterprise accounts, making these options worth considering.
