I had a home router once that was cutting out in the summer. The operating environment section of the manual listed a temperature range that went up to something like 105 ℉. My apartment was below 80 ℉ so didn't think that was the problem.
It turns out that they meant 105 ℉ inside the router. Opening the router case and placing it so a fan I used to circulate room air was blowing over the router made the problem go away.
I think it is reasonable to assume when writing a manual that if you tell a consumer that the device can be operated in an environment with a temperature range of X-Y, the consumer will take it to mean that if the temperature in their room is in that range they can use the device. If that's not what the range means, you should tell the consumer.
Is the Starlink manual clear on this?
It’s not even the hottest part of the summer yet. I can’t imagine this problem getting better.
The rural communities most likely to use Starlink are also those most likely to be relying on satellite dishes right now, which seem to frequently suffer from similar problems.
My parents pay for internet from both HughesNet and AT&T because the former stops working whenever it snows more than an inch or two (even after clearing the dish manually) and the latter constantly drops any time there's thick rain, heavy winds, etc. There's dozens of days throughout each year where neither work and they're just SOL in terms of TV or internet.
They began providing service at higher latitude earlier because that is where the satellites "lump" due to their inclination, so that they needed fewer satellites in total.
They are also required to cover Alaska and have now started launching Starlink satellites into (near-)polar orbits. If these are test sats or actually operational I do not know but they seem to be working on these issues.
All in all they seem to be following a launch-early strategy.
