Is Starlink available in my country?

Starlink availability map at starlink.com/map shows coverage. As of 2026, Starlink covers most of Africa, South Asia, Central Asia, and Latin America. Some countries have blocked Starlink registration (Russia, North Korea, Belarus) but physical terminals still connect when positioned correctly.

What is the latency of Starlink + offshore VPS?

Starlink itself adds approximately 20-40ms latency. Adding your VPS adds the VPS routing latency. Total: Starlink (30ms) + VPS (40-80ms depending on location) = 70-110ms total. This is acceptable for all applications.

Complete Internet Shutdown Bypass: Satellite + Offshore VPS

Internet shutdowns cut at the ISP level - terrestrial fiber and cellular data simultaneously. The only bypass for a complete shutdown is a connection that does not use terrestrial ISPs: satellite internet. Starlink, which uses low-earth orbit satellites not subject to national ground infrastructure control, provides internet access during ISP-level shutdowns in many regions. Paired with an offshore VPS for routing traffic outside the satellite provider's potential blocking, this combination provides the most resilient internet access available.

How Satellite Internet Bypasses Shutdowns

ISP-level internet shutdowns work by instructing domestic internet service providers to cut traffic at their network level. Starlink bypasses this because Starlink satellite dishes communicate directly with LEO satellites orbiting above the territory. The terrestrial fiber backbone carrying international internet traffic is not involved. When Ethiopia cuts internet, Starlink dishes in Ethiopia continue communicating with satellites. When Kazakhstan throttles ISP traffic, Starlink bypasses Kazakhstani ISP infrastructure entirely. This is why authoritarian governments view Starlink as a threat - it fundamentally breaks the domestic-ISP-as-control-point model. Starlink availability has expanded significantly: now available across most of Africa, Central Asia, South Asia, and Latin America. The terminal costs approximately $350-500, with monthly service costs varying by region.

VPS Role in Satellite + Offshore Architecture

Starlink provides the connection. Your offshore VPS provides the routing endpoint. This two-part architecture provides complete resilience. Why add a VPS if Starlink already provides internet? Two reasons: privacy and content access. SpaceX (Starlink's operator) is subject to US law and could theoretically be compelled to provide user data or block content for US government reasons. An offshore VPS adds a layer: Starlink sees only encrypted traffic going to your Iceland or Romania VPS IP. The VPS handles the actual internet requests. Starlink cannot see your traffic content. Second: some content may be blocked at the Starlink level (SpaceX has the technical capability to implement country-specific blocking if legally compelled). An offshore VPS as the exit node means your traffic exits from an IP associated with Iceland or Romania, not with Starlink's satellite IP ranges. Setup: configure WireGuard on your offshore VPS. On your Starlink-connected device, connect to WireGuard. All traffic routes: device -> Starlink satellite -> your VPS -> open internet. Completely resilient to both local ISP shutdowns and Starlink-level restrictions.
