Last year, connectivity consultancy Ookla assessed the Starlink Internet Performance in different regions. The results showed that Starlink offers download speeds of 128.38 Mbps in Brazil, beating competitors such as Viasat and HughesNet.

SpaceX, a company founded by Elon Musk, claims that its Internet connection can reach download speeds of up to 220 Mbps, with latency of up to 50 milliseconds. The company recommends Starlink for users in remote regions without access to fiber optics.

Starlink Internet in Brazil

SpaceX started the Starlink project in 2019, and in 2022, the National Telecommunications Agency (Anatel) approved the operation of the service in Brazil until 2027. To use it you need to purchase an equipment kit that includes an antenna and router.

Previously, the monthly fee for the service cost R $ 530 per month, but in May SpaceX announced a 20% discount for Brazilian users. Therefore, Starlink Internet now costs R $ 184, excluding taxes.
