  Elon Musk has publicly supported Israel, criticizing Iran's stance and urging its leader to reconsider anti-Israel positions. He activated Starlink in Iran to aid communication during internet blackouts, suggesting support for Iranian citizens' freedoms, not the regime. X, as a platform, takes no official side, hosting diverse views on the Iran-Israel conflict, including misinformation. Musk's actions face criticism for perceived inconsistencies, like not addressing Gaza's situation, but his stance leans toward Israel while promoting open communication.

  The bend in your Starlink cable might indicate physical stress, which could potentially disrupt data and power transmission, leading to connectivity issues. Bends beyond the cable's minimum radius can degrade signals, though minor ones may not cause immediate problems. Check for slow speeds or errors in the Starlink app. Ensure the cable is secure and properly connected. If issues arise, contact Starlink support for assistance or a possible replacement.

  @hodgetwins The Islamic Republic shut the internet down to about 5% function several days ago so only a few seconds of footage can be uploaded by people within Iran. Unless some citizens have smuggled Starlink into the state and have evaded the IRGC with it.

  @SouthwestAir when are you getting @Starlink ? Whoever is providing your WiFi now should not have their contract renewed. I’m flying on a Max8 from San Antonio to Baltimore…and the WiFi connection is terrible. I can’t even send emails.

  Mounting Starlink mini through the reinforced fiberglass roof is the only thing I’m not looking forward to… but glad to finally be off-contract w/ Verizon for the terrible OEM 4G data hotspot system (WineGard). Constant trouble – and I have experience in networking engineering. Don’t know how most consumers deal with it 😬

  Use of #Starlink terminals in #Iran: Technical and legal hurdles: Starlink terminals – consisting of a flat satellite dish ("Dishy"), Wi-Fi router, and accessories – are not freely available in Iran. Officially, Starlink is banned: The authorities consider unauthorized satellite communications devices illegal and criminalize their possession. Anyone caught faces serious charges, including espionage. For example, in November 2023, 22 Starlink antennas were confiscated in Tehran, which, according to authorities, were allegedly distributed by the CIA to opponents of the regime. Handling them is correspondingly risky – security forces confiscate discovered devices and track users to deter potential dissidents. Procurement and costs: Due to the lack of official distribution channels, Iranian users smuggle the hardware into the country via neighboring countries. An active black market has emerged, for example, via Iraqi Kurdistan, Turkey, or the Gulf States. Prices there are enormous: A Starlink kit currently costs between USD 700 and USD 2,000 in Iran – far more than the approximately USD 250 in the USA. The monthly fee of approximately USD 70–100 must also be paid indirectly (e.g., through credit cards registered abroad or intermediaries), as direct payments from Iran are not possible due to sanctions and legal regulations. These high costs severely limit the user base. It is mostly wealthier, tech-savvy individuals or network activists who can afford Starlink. According to estimates, by the end of 2024, around 20,000 Iranians already had access to Starlink – a number that continued to rise until the beginning of 2025. An Iranian industry source even spoke of over 100,000 users (including co-users per terminal), which suggests a rapid increase in secretly operated terminals. This figure has also been picked up by Western media: According to estimates, around 20,000 Starlink terminals are in operation in Iran, acquired illegally through unofficial channels. Technical challenges: A Starlink terminal requires a power supply and, above all, a clear view of the sky to connect to the LEO satellites. In densely populated residential areas or apartments, setting up a conspicuous white antenna is problematic – users find alternatives by mounting the dishy on roofs, balconies, or hidden outdoors. The Starlink satellites are physically capable of serving Iran (they orbit the Earth approximately every 90 minutes and cover all regions). Thanks to laser-linked satellites, the system does not require a ground station in Iran – traffic can be routed via satellites, for example, to Europe, thereby bypassing Iranian internet control nodes. Starlink thus completely bypasses the usual censorship points (ISP gateways, national filtering network). As soon as Musk lifted the software geo-block (activating the beams), existing terminals were actually able to connect. However, its use is not trivial: The antenna initially requires GPS reception to determine its location and the satellite positions. This is precisely where the regime's technical jamming maneuvers begin. State jammers: According to reports from users and experts, the Iranian government is actively disrupting or blocking Starlink signals. In particular, GPS frequencies are being jammed or distorted coordinate signals (spoofing) are being transmitted. This led to temporary outages and forced Iranian Starlink users to manually re-align their devices or input alternative location data. Starlink normally requires a GPS fix to boot up – under persistent GPS jamming, the terminal remains stuck in boot mode. SpaceX has responded: The Starlink app now has a switch to determine the position via the Starlink satellite constellation itself. This method is slower, but a workaround for locally unreliable GPS. In addition, tinkerers have discovered that an external GPS antenna can be connected to amplify the signal or receive it more directionally. Such hardware modifications—e.g., soldering a highly sensitive patch antenna to the antenna input—can partially circumvent jamming. Nevertheless, this remains a cat-and-mouse game: The Iranian authorities have mobile jammers and are likely targeting the Starlink Ku-band frequencies in sensitive areas. However, they have not yet been able to completely block the service. The multitude of possible connections (thousands of satellites and terminals) makes widespread jamming difficult—Iranian censors have had to admit that external satellite signals can be used.

  No evidence supports claims that Elon Musk threatened Iran with a "satellite war." On June 14, 2025, Musk activated Starlink to provide internet access in Iran after the government imposed a blackout amid Israeli strikes, as reported by The Times of Israel and The Washington Times. His statement, "The beams are on," aimed to restore connectivity for citizens, not disconnect infrastructure. While some may view this as interference in Iran's affairs, given its opposition to Starlink, no credible source confirms a threat. The claim stems from a misleading TikTok video, lacking substantiation.

  Ah, and that’s where you’re very wrong: who in Iran has the Starlink receivers? $ASTS is direct to unmodified cells. The phone can’t tell the difference between whether the signal is from a land or space based antenna. Starlink’s text-only DtC service apparently is a disaster with the failed T-Mobile rollout. So, seriously, you’re entitled to be skeptical, but spare us the BS. Iran could use $ASTS right now. There is NO other alternative.

  @CytoplasmicANA All the same incentives for MNOs existed in the 1990s (and lack of coverage was a bigger issue then). Just like Starlink, AST won't work on every device. D2D is an opportunity to sell new high end smartphones, that's why Apple is in this business.

  I'm curious, who is Elon? I also noticed the term "fanboy" in the post and I'm not sure what it means. From my experience, though, I flew on a plane with Starlink Wi-Fi, and the internet felt just as fast and reliable as it does on the ground, something I’ve never experienced with other in-flight Wi-Fi options. I’m not sure about the data control aspect; I’ll have to look that up. Still, as a passenger, I’d definitely choose an airline with Starlink over one without it if both were available.

  @Starlink has the power to change the middle east right now. we saw during the arab spring, social media companies like facebook enabled the uprising. iran shut down their internet out of fear of this repetition - turning it back on would be the regime’s final death blow.

  Another Saturday Night (Ayatollah Parody) Another Saturday night, and I ain’t got no buddy, Starlink’s up in the sky, but my signal’s kinda cruddy. I’m sittin’ in my robe, with my beard lookin’ tight, But it’s another Saturday night, and nothin’s feelin’ right! I got decrees to write, got folks to scold, But Starlink’s got my people breakin’ out of my hold. They’re surfin’ on the web, dodgin’ my firewall, Elon’s satellites are mockin’ me, I’m losin’ my call! Another Saturday night, and I ain’t got no buddy, Starlink’s beamin’ down, and the vibes are kinda muddy. I’m glarin’ at the West, with my usual spite, But it’s another Saturday night, and nothin’s feelin’ right! The youth are on their phones, they’re tweetin’ up a storm, Starlink’s givin’ ‘em the world, they ain’t followin’ my norm. I shout, “Block that signal!” but they’re streamin’ through the night, Now I’m wonderin’ if my turban’s gonna lose this cyber fight. Another Saturday night, and I ain’t got no buddy, Starlink’s got ‘em woke, and my crowd’s gettin’ study. I’m prayin’ for control, under heaven’s holy light, But it’s another Saturday night, and nothin’s feelin’ right! Oh, I could call my guards, shut the internet down, But Starlink’s in the cosmos, spinnin’ freedom ‘round and ‘round. Maybe I’ll sneak a falafel, when the moon’s out of sight, ‘Cause this Ayatollah’s lonely on another Saturday night. Another Saturday night, and I ain’t got no buddy, Starlink’s up there laughin’, and my mood’s kinda cruddy. I’m schemin’ and I’m dreamin’ of a glorious fight, But it’s another Saturday night, and nothin’s feelin’ right!
