With the current sale on the Generation 3 antenna (?) and the 50gb for $50 roam plan I am thinking of getting into Starlink to use with my RV. I don't think Starlink will work at my home. But will Dish OnDemand work with my Dish Wally?

I do not doubt you, but I'm curious why Starlink will not work at your home.

From what I have read since making that comment Starlink would most likely work at my home. When Starlink first came out I could not get a Northern view for it due to tall trees. When I get back from my next trip I will test it out being I will still have days and gb to use.

Sorry to change topic but since I have not been able to find answer on starlink site, how much are additional GB?

all you need to do at the house is use the app for coverage test--50gb unless you are just emailing and face booking will get eaten up very quickly and it will shut of automatic unless you purchase extra gb's at $1 per gb and doesnt the wally still require the use of the dish--i would think you would have to access on demand directly through star and a computer or phone like dish anywhere-could be wrong how those work as i have never used either (on demand or anywhere)

I normally set up my Dish at home to get access to my DVR. I would check my laptop to see if Starlink works. I did the coverage test years ago and it showed frequent interruptions.

Will a standard RJ45 female/female coupler work with the gen 3 Starlink ethernet cable? I am wanting to get a short Starlink (6'6") cable to just get from my RV compartment to the outside. From there I would connect the Starlink cable to the antenna (?).
