When you say stores you mean Home Depot? That’s where I got mine four months ago.

Home Depot Manzanillo shows it has 13 in stock right now. If you can wait there are deals from time to time. Cost is 7600p now, was about 5400p a couple months ago. Home Depot and direct from Starlink is same price.

Home Depot only sells the kit online, they don’t stock it in Manzanillo. I just ordered mine on Mercado Libre. When I went to hook it up , it wouldn’t take my Canadian credit card to pay the monthly fee. I was told if you buy the kit from a seller inside Mexico, you have to pay with a Mexican card. Also, a 2,000 peso ‘congestion charge' was added at the checkout. Not happy about that!

ordered ours directly from Starlink, got here in under a week.

Re: Star Link

Curious- what is cost of starlink system and what is monthly fee❓🙏🙏

Re: Star Link

The standard kit on Mecado Libre was 5400 pesos. Monthly fee is 1100 pesos.

Re: Star Link

this is fact but if you have a fixed address service (which gives you some preference in signal strength) but you have to stop the account completely when you suspend service and then resign up when you restart the service), the cost for this option is a
707 pesos per month.

Re: Star Link

The only option I was given upon signing up was 1100 pesos per month. Service can be suspended at any time.

I ordered from Starlink Mex - was here in a week.
Only residential option was 1100p a month (900.86 + 47.41 (regulatory fee) + 151.73 tax)
I can suspend or move service anytime.
Unlike David, I had no trouble using my Canadian CC for the monthly fee.
Easy peasy.

Last year I only used the service for one month, suspended when we left, restarted it this year but went the fixed residence route at the lower rate, for the most part speed has been fantastic, a couple time the service dropped off the map but came back stronger after a short delay, who knows why??? Sun flares I suspect affecting the function of the sat.

I stand totally corrected with the cost, my first month was less because I did not start the service on the first but the 12th, obviously it was prorated for less days, YES it was 1100 pesos for the first full month. Sorry for any confusion that I may have caused.

They are good about prorating when you start service but not when you suspend it. When you end the service to head north, they always leave it active until your next monthly billing cycle and charge for the full month.

So to be clear, if you go with the residential (stationary) and not the mobile unit you can suspend and restart service?

From my own experience, I was able to stop and start the service very easily, however, this year when I stop it, it might entail a cancellation of the account and a total start up next year, however I am looking at a on going annual service for security reasons. I am very pleased with the service and the speed, although it does vary a great deal and I am not sure why. Speed goes from 30 to 300 but still delivers good internet quality, far far better than anything previously provided.
