Home plans (Residential)
Residential 200 Mbps
$85 /month
A family that streams on several screens at once.
capped at 200 Mbps
Residential Max
$130 /month
Heavy use, large uploads, and the extras that come with it.
up to 400+ Mbps
All three include unlimited data. The difference is the speed cap and the extras. 100 vs 200: pick 200 only if several people stream or work online at once. 200 vs Max: Max adds free professional installation and eligibility for an extra Mini kit; if you'd pay for installation anyway, it narrows the gap. The 3-year difference between 100 and Max is the monthly gap times 36. Run it in the calculator.

$80 /month

When it's the wrong buy
The honest exit. If one of these is you, the cheapest Starlink plan is still the expensive choice.
- You can get fiber, or reliable cable at a lower all-in price. Take it.
- 5G home internet works well at your address and costs less. Try it first; most carriers let you return it.
- Your checkout shows a large demand surcharge. Run the 3-year math in the calculator before you pay it.
- You need to pause a rental kit. Rental kits can't use Standby, so a seasonal place pays every month.
- Money is tight. Compare Lifeline-eligible and lower-cost options first at fcc.gov/lifeline.
