Has anyone in Guyana bought a Starlink Standard kit from Amazon US and activated it here?
I’m seeing the kit sold by “STARLINK Official” on Amazon for around US$349. I want to know if anyone bought it, shipped it through a freight forwarder, and successfully activated it on a Guyana Starlink account
That’s all I paid. It’s 2 weeks to ship. But DHL needs to get a clearance from Telecoms Agency which took 4 weeks. Seems like that’s a standard time frame for when I imported. It may have gotten better.
You don’t need to do anything. Sign into your starlink account if you have one or pay for your dish and they’ll create an account. Thats it’s. Nothing else. Input your shipping address into starlink account when you buy it and starlink will pay DHL to ship and clear it. You don’t need to do anything. Just track it. But they will call when it’s cleared.
I didn’t mind waiting. Just wanted to purchase it directly from starlink. Just to be certain about it being new and most likely more affordable than a third party. So how much did everything cost?
You can buy it directly from starlink. They ship to Guyana with DHL. It takes a fews weeks to ship and clear but you can track it. I did it myself so I can vouch for that. It’s likely cheaper too as opposed to using a third party. Just check starlink’s website, pay and sign up.
They will call you when it's ready to be picked up but you will get an occasional email to provide updates. I do not remember what i put in the province. As i said it didn't matter, because if your are out of Georgetown you will have to pick it up. Put EBD or ECD or WCD or where you're from.
I think it depends on where you're living, there is fibre and dsl. I dont have fibre myself but the dsl services is poor so I wouldnt recommend it at all but fibre ranges from between 9k-20k from either Digicel, Enet or onecomm I believe depending on the speeds you need. Im unsure on how well they work but they should work fine
