Starlink offers high-speed internet connectivity almost anywhere, including rural and remote areas, for use at home, on the go, and even aboard boats. Now available at Best Buy, Starlink is revolutionizing the way Canadians access the internet.

Introduction to Starlink

Developed by SpaceX, Starlink delivers high-speed, low-latency internet via a cutting-edge satellite network. Thousands of satellites orbit close to Earth (approximately 550km), providing seamless internet coverage for homes, businesses, and mobile setups. All you need is an unobstructed view of the sky to get started.

The Starlink hardware is motorized and self-orienting, ensuring optimal connectivity with latency as low as 25ms, compared to the 600ms typical of other satellite options. Download speeds range from 25 to 220 Mbps, and upload speeds range from 5 to 20 Mbps, with most users experiencing over 100 Mbps download speeds. Performance depends on factors such as location, hardware positioning, time of day, and the chosen service plan.

Starlink includes unlimited data in its plans, with the priority plan offering 1TB of data at higher speeds before throttling occurs. Whether you're a residential user or a business, the Starlink app guides you through hardware positioning for the best connection. Best Buy is proud to be the first retailer offering Starlink hardware outside of Starlink’s own website.

Starlink hardware kits provide everything needed to get started with high-speed satellite internet. The Standard Starlink Kit includes a satellite dish, base, router, Starlink cable, and AC cable, making it ideal for home or business use. It delivers download speeds ranging from 25–220 Mbps, depending on the chosen service plan. For those on the move, the Starlink Mini Kit offers a compact, portable version of the standard setup, complete with integrated Wi-Fi and portable power options, making it perfect for travelers, campers, and remote workers seeking reliable connectivity wherever they go.
