SpaceX has announced a “Starlink for RVs” internet service, and at the moment there’s no waitlist for dishes.
“At this time, there is no waitlist — all orders will be shipped shortly after the order is placed,” SpaceX says on its website. With an influx of orders expected, SpaceX can’t promise fast delivery for long. Indeed, the company adds, “Supply is subject to network and equipment availability.”
SpaceX says the new RV service will be ideal for those who want to take internet connectivity with them when they hit the road. RV adventures, weekend camping trips, and stays at second homes are cited as typical cases where the new service would come in useful. Subscribers to the Starlink RV service will have to fork out $599 for the dish and $135 per month for the internet connection. Compared to the cost of the long-established residential service, the hardware cost is the same, while the monthly fee stands at $110. Starlink for RVs also offers the ability to pause and un-pause service, allowing users to customize their service to their individual travel needs and therefore better control their spending.
