Starlink lifts 5TB cap for some residential users
PCMag reported that SpaceX reversed an apparent 5TB monthly throttle on Starlink Residential service after users said speeds dropped to 10 Mbps or lower despite unlimited-data advertising. Several US and European customers said the cap was lifted, some with a one-month credit, but a September 12 update said users in Malaysia, Mexico and Bangladesh still reported throttling. SpaceX did not comment.
