I go the StarLink kit yesterday and set it up. speedtest.net shows 41 Mbps 
down, 21 uo. The Verizon wireless shows 10.5 down, 0.21 up. 

speed.cloudflare.com may be more realistic and shows 30/10 for StarLink, 
3.32 Mbps/221 kbps for Verizon.

That's from the Fedora box. The speed test from the StarLink app show 101 
Mbps down. The SUSE laptop showed 105 down. 

The app shows no obstructions and the dish is oriented correctly. Despite 
the varying speed tests it is faster than Verizon. 

I also moved the Fire TV to StarLink. Neither SUSE or Fedora has a large 
update so I can't get a feeling for that difference. The Mint laptop 
updated and seemed a little snappier. It's showing 46.4 down, 11.2 up.

The router does have an Ethernet port. I'll pick up a cable and see if the 
WiFi chips in the different machine are the difference. That may also 
allow me to create a bridge for the VM.

I'll run the two in parallel for a while but faster speeds and $40 / month 
makes MuskNet attractive for me.
