About Starlight Internet, It\u2019s very easy to confuse SpaceX\u2019s Starlink<\/a> with Starlight Internet. They have slightly similar names and they both offer internet services. In fact, they are so similar that search engines like Google try to correct it to Starlink if you enter Starlight Internet into the search bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n However, make no mistake. Starlight actually exists and it\u2019s a completely separate entity to Starlink. While both companies are internet service providers, they do it differently. <\/p>\n\n\n\n So what is Starlight and in what fundamental ways does it differ from Starlink? The following guide hopes to answer these questions and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Starlight Internet or Starlight Fiber is a pure fiber optic cable-based internet service provider. It\u2019s a part of Open Infra<\/a>\u2019s open market provider network. The company prides itself on delivering ethical services.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n It does not charge hidden fees and is squarely focused on achieving customer satisfaction. Fiber comparatively<\/a> delivers the fastest internet transfer speeds. However, not all internet service providers are the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Starlight uses pure fiber. Consequently, the company can provide download speeds of up to 8 Gbps. Albeit, these speeds depend on factors such as your service plan, location and your equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fiber Optic Cable Running Through the Ground<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Please note that the following information is subject to change. At the time of writing this guide, Starlight offered 5 service plans:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Laptop Computer Next to Router<\/em>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Starlight\u2019s equipment fees seem to be included with the monthly subscription charge. Unfortunately, the company isn\u2019t forthcoming with what contract obligations subscribers will be subjected to. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Nevertheless, it\u2019s always important to read the terms and conditions<\/a> of services before you sign any paperwork.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n What makes Starlight Internet such an attractive prospect is that it has no download caps or restrictions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This means that your transfer speeds stay consistent throughout the month, no matter how much data you consume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As such, it\u2019s important that you assess your connection needs and choose the right package for your household and\/or business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This allows you to cover larger areas. The included router is mesh-capable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Thus, you can add it or pair it to your current mesh network or establish a new one.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n With that being said, Starlight\u2019s internet services seem good for Small Businesses in America.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n The above guide explores what Starlight Fiber is. It\u2019s important to remember that it mostly caters to Open Infra\u2019s North American network. Moreover, it struggles with some of the limitations of fiber internet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n While fast, it\u2019s not available in many rural areas. Fortunately, citizens in those areas can use wireless broadband options such as cellular and satellite-based internet. <\/p>\n\n\n\nWhat is Starlight Internet?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
