About
	Starlink is a satellite internet service owned and operated by Elon Musk's SpaceX. Launched in Australia in 2021 and now available across much of the world, its low-orbit satellites deliver far faster speeds and lower latency than traditional satellite, making it a popular fixed-line alternative in rural and remote areas.	Pentanet is a Perth based ISP focused on Western Australia. Alongside nbn plans it runs its own fixed wireless network across the Perth metro area, which means addresses inside its footprint can sidestep FTTN copper entirely and pull faster speeds. Pentanet also offers Opticomm and 5G home internet. The brand has built a reputation locally for gamers and households after low latency.
