Elon Musk is known for being, in addition to being the richest man in the world, owner of several companies that are in the field of technology. One of them is the Starlink, which offers satellite internet service, which also serves in Brazil. But is Starlink's internet really that good? A report from Ookla demonstrated a little more about the performance of the internet via satellite of the SpaceX in the world — with an exclusive part for Brazil. We will see? 4l4xy
About the research e4z6l
A Ookla cover satellite internet Starlink for over a year with an ongoing series on the performance of the service offered. The company has tracked Starlink's launch in new locations around the world, and while some speeds have shown signs of slowing down from initial launches, the newest announced partnership from T-Mobile with Starlink you can extend the benefit of satellite connections to the mobile market as well.
Data on satellite performance during the second quarter of 2022 was displayed in North America, South America, Europe and Oceania. This analysis includes results from eight more countries, two new providers, and expanded data to Starlink, HughesNet e Viasat. Also analyzed were how Starlink's internet performance has changed over the past year in countries such as , Canada, the US, , New Zealand and the UK.
More subscriptions, slower internet 3b1t1m
O Speedtest Intelligence — a service that also performs analysis on various factors involving the internet connection — reveals that average Starlink speeds have dropped in Canada, , , New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States, falling between 9% and 54% of the Q2021 2022 to QXNUMX XNUMX as more s the service.
However, Starlink still reached an average speed of at least 60 Mbps on North America during Q2022 XNUMX, which is more than enough for at least one connected device to do almost everything on the internet, including streaming video, ing games, and video chatting with friends and family.
speeds also decreased in Starlink, with speeds decreasing in every country the study tracked in the past year. Latency fared a little better, remaining relatively flat—albeit high compared to fixed broadband—in most countries. THE Nova zealand was the exception, with latency dropping by 23 ms. For most s, we still suspect that these drops could still represent some value for areas with no service, slow service, or few accessible fast internet options.
Brazil has the fastest satellite internet in South America 2y5z2g
Analysis of the Speedtest Intelligence data found that the Starlink in Brazil was the fastest satellite provider in South America, with an average speed of 128,38 Mbps during Q2022 94,79, followed by Starlink in Chile with XNUMX Mbps. The Chilean fixed broadband internet was still much faster for those who had full access.
O Speedtest Global Index — a service that compares internet connections — showed that Chile had the second fastest fixed broadband internet in the world, with an average speed of 211,43 Mbps in August 2022. Starlink in Brazil was the only provider to be faster than the country's fixed broadband providers combined.
And just like last quarter, fixed broadband providers in South America outperformed satellite providers on every speed during Q2022 38. All satellite providers had a higher median latency than fixed broadband, although Starlink in Brazil and Chile have latencies of XNUMX ms.
Check out some results, specifically aimed at Brazil, presented by Speedtest's analysis:
- fastest operators: Claro was the fastest mobile operator among the main providers in Brazil in the second quarter of 2022, with an average speed of 31,93 Mbps.
- Latency: Calculating the median latency for the main mobile providers in Brazil during the second quarter of 2022, TIM had the lowest latency at 25 ms.
- Consistency: When measuring the consistency of each operator's performance, we found that Claro had the highest consistency in Brazil during the second quarter of 2022, with 84,2% of the results showing at least 5 Mbps minimum speed and 1 Mbps speed minimum .
- most used appliancess: A performance analysis on some of the fastest phones in Brazil found that there was no statistical winner during Q2022 XNUMX.
- Fee per manufacturer: We examined the combined performance of major cell phone manufacturers and found that Apple devices had the fastest average speed in Brazil during Q2022 32,20 at XNUMX Mbps.
- fee per processor: Analyzing five of the fastest chipsets in mobile phones in Brazil, it was seen that there were no statistical winners during the second quarter of 2022.
- speed per city: Brasília had the fastest average mobile speed among Brazil's most populous cities during Q2022 29,45, at XNUMX Mbps.

Speedtest Intelligence also showed that Starlink was fast in Europe in Q2022 16, suring average broadband speeds for 100 countries and reaching speeds above 10 Mbps in 100 countries. In contrast, fixed broadband only averaged speeds above 20 Mbps in six countries: Romania, Spain, Portugal, , Hungary and the Netherlands the second quarter of XNUMX Mbps.
Starlink was the fastest to , in Europe, in :
- Portugal with 123,01 Mbps;
- Netherlands with 122,43 Mbps;
- Austria with 112,01 Mbps;
- with 110,98 Mbps;
- Belgium with 110,40 Mbps.
A Roménia and Spain were the only countries to have fixed broadband suring Starlink for the fastest average speed, reaching 131,41 Mbps and 127,19 Mbps, respectively.
Starlink in Puerto Rico had the fastest satellite internet in North America during Q2022 112,22 with an average speed of XNUMX Mbps, followed by Starlink at:
- Mexico with 80,17 Mbps;
- Canada with 75,73 Mbps;
- United States with 62,53 Mbps.
Satellite internet connection is coming to smartphones. That Starlink's partnership with T-Mobile, makes new mobile devices ready for this type of connection. This will have effects in several areas, which is a positive outcome for consumers living in areas with poor mobile and fixed broadband connectivity. Connecting with the world will no longer be a matter of how, it will be a matter of how good your experience is.
We hope it's a win-win for consumers, especially as the more providers vying for the satellite experience, the faster and better it can become — a true global space race. And of course the Starlink is one of those companies that are keeping an eye on this market, mainly because they are a little easier to deliver the service in different parts of the world, even in those that are more difficult to access.
But they're not the only satellite providers making moves: A Viasat is launching its Viasat-3 fleet; The OneWeb is combining business with Eutelsat and Amazon is sending 3.236 Project Kuiper satellites into orbit. Now it's going to be monitoring the progress of all these services and being able to choose which one will best serve our needs — whether in value or quality of service.
