We charge flat fees for different rental periods that can be viewed here. When you are ready to book simply send us a message and we set you up with a reservation. Collection and drop off is done in person from NW Calgary, or alternatively we can ship it to any location in North America. The kit is fully pre-configured and loaded with an active subscription and a wifi password, all you have to do is put it together and turn it on!
The standard kit is the original starlink hardware with an actuating dish that sits upon a tripod. It has a separate router and uses a 120v power supply. It is best for static installations. Our new Flat mount kits package both the dish and the router into one slim unit approximately 3" thick that can be mounted to a vehicle using magnets or fasteners or laid flat on any surface. It also uses a 12v supply greatly reducing the power demands. As a result of the slim design, we can ship it for much less cost to you and it can be used in motion in a variety of applications.
Much like any equipment rental service we need to take a deposit to protect ourselves from theft or abuse of equipment. If everything is returned on time and without damage your deposit will be returned within 2 – 5 working days to the original card used for payment. Full rental T&Cs can be viewed here.
Think of Starlink as the same as your home or work internet connection, it is fast enough for streaming TV shows, films, music, online gaming and working remotely. We rent the systems to lots of different customers, from RV users and travellers, to oil & gas, survey and film production businesses. For higher bandwidth lower latency performance typically required from some business use cases like media, we can activate high performance subscriptions for your rental period.
We recommend downloading the Starlink app before you leave so you can diagnose any issues. Links: iOS & Android. The placement of the dish is very important, it requires a clear view of the sky with no nearby obstructions like trees or a trailer. The app has a couple of features that can be helpful. First check the statistics menu for up time and any faults. Secondly, we recommend trying the obstacle check function that uses your phone camera if you are still having connection issues.
Once you connect to the wifi network the starlink system creates, the app allows you to diagnose issues, stow the dish and check of obstructions or network status. You will not be able to modify some system options or the subscription type as each system is linked to our account. You do not need to setup an account to use the tools on the app.
No there is no data limit and no costs on top of the rental price. Starlink does have a fair use policy that is applied to all systems, so if you left the system downloading huge files for days and days the speed may be reduced. If you think you will be using the system very heavily, please ask us about adding a small priority data option to your rental.
