OffRoadCampingBoys (Twitter/X) says they used Starlink nonstop over an 8,431‑mile trip, deliberately disabling cellular data to avoid handoffs, and found the service delivered fast, reliable internet in locations with no cell reception. They claim Starlink’s performance improved in increasingly remote campsites and posted a speed‑test from one site as evidence.

Many of the areas we went, there is not a single cell provider that has reception for long distances. Here is a speed test location at one camp site. And, yes, the more remote the better it performs. We ran Starlink for 8,431 miles - non-stop and turned off cellular data to prevent switching and dropping from the network.
