First client call came in about this a few mins ago, shortly after I saw your post. Thanks for letting us know. :)

Read a couple of comments that Starlink power usage went up after the outage. Checked my unit and I see it has gone into heating mode. I assume this is a fallback mode in case it's snow stopping the signal.
But a lot of Facebook people says Starlink is better than fibre...

Yes, I understand. I'm being sarcastic, as most of the people on some Facebook groups seem to always recommend Starlink over any other alternative, saying that's even better than fibre.
