TL;DW: Family hog farm currently paying $700/mo for a combination of cellular and (maybe terrestrial wireless) Internet, and getting 1.4Mbps down, 0.8Mbps up. Set up Starlink and got 95Mbps/28.8Mbps for $100/mo, thinking they can decrease cellular costs as well. They plan to do their own terrestrial wireless off their barn with Starlink uplink.
