Did you get that mount? If so where did you put it?

Got the Beast to recognize and now stay on the StarLink Mini WiFi by entering the WiFi credentials and then flipping a switch to tell it to stay connected while driving. Not sure if I missed this before it is new with the software update?

As expected it works well, although download speeds have settled in the 40+Mbs while driving. Still plenty fast for what I wanted to do - which was mostly music. Where I live cell coverage is terrible and so far Starlink WiFi has stopped the dreaded "Unable to Fetch" in Apple Music while Im truckin'

Off the Burning Man next week and while the Beast will stay clean at home, I'll be taking the Mini out for testing....

It's been there for a few years at least.

I snapped these 2 screen shots, one while sitting still in at a stoplight, the other while driving around. So far the Starlink mini has been great!

Where do you have your mini mounted in the car? I'm debating whether to put in inside the front windshield when I need to use or if its best used in the cargo vault area.

That is on the dash in the front windshield.

Just connected my Starlink mini for the first time. Love it!

I now have paused service and will activate once I feel the world is about to end. lol

I put my Starlink Mini there as well and I'm very happy with the performance so far. Does anyone know how I can check how much data I've used so far?

Yes click on the icon for your account in the app and there is a link for data usage.

Today at 85mph in nowhere North Dakota this was a typical reading:

When we head due south I do flip the mini around on the dash for better reception and speed.

I'll be selling a 3D printed mount in white or black for Starlink Mini starting this Saturday which I have been using in my Cybertruck, mounted on the inside upper glass above the back seat area. It's built with ASA filament which is meant for automotive applications since it can easily withstand all in-cabin temperatures and moisture. It has 4 industrial-grade clamping suction cups that can hold 5x the weight of the Starlink Mini. I will post a link once I have it live for anyone interested.

I ended up just printing this at home with ASA

I don’t think so. They raised the price and removed gen 4 from their picker. Starlink themselves sells various mounts
