    Tell me why I need to by from little Hitler
    We use Wireless Nation 4G who are a reseller of VF, we can get signal in places where our cellphones don't, however it isn't as good in the real remote as Starlink but I'm also not paying money to support Tesla which in my book is a win win.

    I wish there was an alternative to Starlink but there isn't so I'll avoid it as long as possible.

    Wireless nation were running off Spark towers here, we had to shift to them from Spark as Spark had the area on 'Stop/Sell' meaning that they had already allocated all of the theoretical data so would not alter our plan to give us more data. So we went to WN, same modem, same towers, same everything and saved $20 a month to get the next plan up.

    Worked great for a couple of years until Chorus repositioned the transmitters to service town better (we are 6Km out of the urban boundary) and now we had to go to Starlink as no other options!!!
