That's super cool!

If you aren't already, keep an eye on Starlink—when they start operating in Portugal I bet it'd be a real benefit to your business. Yours is pretty much the ideal use case.

Also, wow, living and coding in rurad Portugal sounds like a pretty idyllic life from here. Aproveite pra mim, né?

Thanks! And I hadn't actually thought of Starlink in that light, I had been assuming they would be competition. Could you explain your thoughts to me a little more? I'd be really interested to hear them.

You connect to starlink at your tower and everyone connects to your towner. I don't believe starlink end user is personal internet.

Excellent, that is certainly the answer I was hoping for!
