Hello everyone I live in San Felipe Puerto Plata.  Claro does not have fiber in my neighborhood (yet). 

Does anyone have a review of Starlink's service? The site shows it's available for my address in PP.

It appears no one actually has it installed and in use here yet. There is another thread on this as well

I will like to order and get delivered but I really don't know What address I should use since my house is on a new development no street name no address number like here in Canada. I try to use the address that I used for Amazon shipping thought the ebox

service it doesn't work.


Any help will be appropriate.

We used the code from Google maps for our initial address. Worked for ordering. Hope it also works for delivery. We are in a development just outside of Cabrera without street names as well.

Hi Dima can you please share what the cost outlay for that service is? did you by chance make a comparison to the cost

of fiber?

Dima Sk

Check their website.

Fiber is not available everywhere honey.  So  making the comparison may not be beneficial. Not all services are available in all areas.


I am in Santo Domingo,  fiber is offered by both major players and  is a better price with no upfront expenditure!
