Over the past few months, I’ve had the pleasure of helping more and more customers switch to Starlink – and recently, I completed a great installation right here in Blackburn. I wanted to share a bit about what we did, how it went, and why Starlink is becoming the go-to solution for people struggling with poor internet in rural or patchy areas.

Why Starlink?
Let’s be honest, traditional broadband just doesn’t cut it in some places. Whether it’s weak copper lines, delays getting fibre installed, or constant dropouts, it’s frustrating. That’s where Starlink changes the game. You get high-speed satellite internet (we’re talking speeds that rival or even beat fibre), with minimal latency and much better reliability than what many rural users are used to.
The Blackburn Installation
In this recent job, the customer had been suffering with painfully slow internet and couldn’t get fibre in their area.
I used a galvanised bracket and pole, fitted everything securely, and ran all cabling neatly into the property. I always make sure I test the system fully before leaving, and in this case, we achieved fantastic speeds right away, over 280mb and 26 upload speed straight out the gate.They were suffering with 5mbm, so you can imagine how over the moon they were!

Why It Matters
For people in places like Blackburn, Starlink is often the only reliable broadband option. And when you combine that with a local, hands-on service like mine, you’re getting the best of both worlds, cutting-edge tech with someone who actually picks up the phone. We are here to support you every step of the way.
It’s been amazing seeing how fast and stable Starlink is once it’s up and running. Every install feels like I’m helping someone get their digital life back — whether that’s for work, study, or just watching Netflix without buffering. If you’re ready to stop putting up with rubbish internet, Starlink might be exactly what you need and I’d love to get you set up.
