I have tested with and without the obstruction checkbox on 8.5 and didn’t notice any difference that was significant. It always comes down to place, obstructions if any, positioning facing direction and time of day. Speeds vary from 50-70 down to 200+ down depending on the factors above but it is consistently reliable meaning the uptime is 99.9 and latency is 28 ms. I find that there are a lot of inconsistencies between speed test platforms. I just ran it from the starlink app and I get 54 mps down and I get 157 down on ookla. So you can’t read into to the speed tests too much other than directional. I think Starlink is the right choice as many will agree and its popularity will continue but your buddy Elon needs to keep sending up more satellites so the demand doesn’t start to impact performance. Have you gotten yours yet?
