in Mauritius, 300 Mbps nonstop.

Mauritians can now preorder a Starlink system.

The decision came after SpaceX announced that it will be able to cover the area with ~300 Mbps speed anywhere in the Republic (Mauritius, Rodrigues, Agal茅ga, Chagos Archipelago and so on) by 2022.

What is ?

Starlink is a satellite internet constellation being constructed by SpaceX providing satellite Internet access. The constellation will consist of thousands of mass-produced small satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO), working in combination with ground transceivers. SpaceX plans to sell some of the satellites for military, scientific, or exploratory purposes. The SpaceX satellite development facility in Redmond, Washington houses the Starlink research, development, manufacturing, and orbit control. The cost of the decade-long project to design, build, and deploy the constellation was estimated by SpaceX in May 2018 to be at least US$10 billion.

It would be brilliant if it delivers what it promises. Costs would be a factor though.

Just checked on the website. It is still not available in Mauritius and although there may be pre-orders, it does not say when it will be definitely available.

You can pre-order it for $100 but it should only be available in 2024. This is according to the Starlink website.

Reaching end of year 2024, starlink is still not available in Mauritius.

Will starlink be available in Mauritius at 2025 or shall we wait more ?

Please provide an update on regulatory?

Hello,

Not sure it will be available in Mauritius. l'Icta hasn't confirmed whether it will or will not be available. With the new government in place, let's see.

Regards
