Can one of you networking experts explain why every ISP that I know of limits the up bandwidth to a small fraction of the down?

Ours is 940 symmetrical as is Google fiber and most ISP's that have fiber

That flew right over my head! (LOL)

Care to put that into laymans terms?

Is there any word on user configuration of Starlink? I saw in their order form that the router config is stored in Starlink's cloud, and you can only access it that way.

I'd like to:
a) have a static IP,
b) be able to network many devices behind their router using hardwire ethernet, and network switches,
c) also connect to the router using wifi (for guests.)

Anyone know if those things are possible?

Thanks! That is some progress. The website estimates mid to late 2021 for 37 degrees north.

All the best,

Peter

I signed up for a beta invite, and placed my order yesterday, I sit just below 39 degrees.
