Starlink is now fast enough to allow users in rural Montana to watch "Falcon" and "Winter Soldier" in 4K on Disney Plus.

The latest findings come from a report by Wccftech, which asked current users of the service to send in recent speed tests. Reporter Ramish Zafar found speeds exceeding 200 Mbps in both urban and rural areas of the US.

A reader in Montana reported 190 Mbps. Meanwhile, speeds of 230 or 240 Mbps were reported in Seattle and New York. These are very competitive speeds, even in urban areas.

Currently, Elon Musk's satellite Internet constellation is in the beta stage. For best results, it is recommended that users in high latitudes north of Seattle sign up for this service. Still, that hasn't stopped LA Tesla fans from trying this service for themselves.

A reader in Sonoma County, California, provided details of his latest speed test results. Of his six speed tests, the slowest speed was 44 Mbps and the fastest was 47 Mbps.

According to Broadband Now, the average Internet speed in Sonoma County is 120 Mbps; gigabit Internet is also available in the area, up to 1,000 Mbps. So, for that particular user, Starlink would be a downgrade. But again, Starlink is not for users in densely populated areas where ISP competition is intense.

Twitter users have also posted screenshots of Starlink speed tests. Aaron J. Spence, a farmer from Outlook, Saskatchewan, Canada, posted a speed of 214 Mbps. This is a significant upgrade over the 4.31 Mbps she was getting on Xplornet.

Not that Starlink is cheap; in addition to the $500 equipment fee, the service itself costs $100 per month. But for many, the cost is worth it, given the significant increase in Internet speeds.

Starlink still has a long way to go before it reaches global connectivity. At this point, SpaceX has only launched 1,300 low earth orbit (LEO) satellites into orbit. That is far short of the 12,000 satellites needed to complete the satellite megaconstellation. But Elon Musk hopes to have the service fully operational by some time next year.
