A Mexican tiktoker decided to hire Elon Musk’s internet service, Starlink, and through a video shows how the installation is.
Since Elon Musk’s satellite internet was announced, it has become a desired service for users who want a better connection to the web.
In Mexico, the consumer already has several connection options and, above all, at a much lower price.
A video posted on TikTok shows how is the installation of Starlink, the internet service of tycoon Elon Musk.
More than a luxury, the internet today is a necessity, a more than essential work tool for people and their daily activities.
In fact, a recent report developed by We Are Social and Hootsuite reveals that, as of today, there are 4.950 billion users connected to the internet worldwide (approximately 62.5 percent of the world’s population), representing an increase of 4 percent compared to last year (192 million people).
Hire Starlink, Elon Musk’s internet, and show how it is configured
Now, that is not all, because, according to what said study mentions, currently, people spend at least seven hours to be connected to the network, a fact that reflects the importance of having a good connection to Internet.
In that sense, In Mexico, there are several internet service options, such as Telmex, Izzi, TotalPlay, among others, each with its own specifications; however, the consumer is looking for a better connection every day.
Now, within the wide range of possibilities, Elon Musk and Starlink have become a real option for consumers, who -some of them- are beginning to hire him and, thereby, show his effectiveness.
This is what a Mexican consumer and tiktoker did, who, through a video posted on the Chinese social network, shows how the process of setting up your Starlink antenna was, from receiving it from the United States to installing it on the roof of your home.
According to what the user comments, he reserved everything through the website and days later the antenna arrived at his home. Regarding the installation, he mentions that the process is fast, although he affirms that it is necessary to find an extremely clear area so that the antenna can locate the satellites.
@gabidof I had been waiting for a long time for the starlink to arrive, the satellite internet of #elonmusk Everything is through the website or the app, you pay for the antenna and the service is monthly. In general, the installation is quite fast, the bad thing is that you will have to find a fairly clear place so that you can find the satellites well, but apart from that , very good ?? #starlink #starlinkmexico #starlinksatellites #starlinkinternet #spacex #gadgets
Although it is true that the internet has become a great tool these days, the reality is that, in a country like Mexico, where the main needs of consumers are others, a service like Starlink might not be the best option due to at your price.
A few months ago, on Twitter, a user’s post drew attention after showing how much it costs to hire Starlink in Mexicorevealing that only the equipment has a cost of 11,579 Mexican pesos, while the service is 2,299 Mexican pesos per month.
Of course, although Starlink may be a good option for the consumer, we are talking about its extremely high market price and not everyone can afford it.
Nevertheless, Starlink is presented as a good alternative for large companies that require, yes or yes, a good internet connection. Now, the question that has arisen since then is whether Elon Musk’s internet service will be able to position itself in Mexico and, above all, in countries where the economy suffers a bit.
