Starlink accepted an order for my address in Berkeley, CA, today. They also let me set the location of the Dishy I already have on hand to Berkeley, rather than my off-grid location where it hasn't been installed yet. That did not work before. However, Dishy has had 14 minutes to get on the network, and is still doing what it previously did - it has 15-second intervals online every 10 minutes or so. I'll leave it on and see if it starts working.
Also, my ethernet adapter arrived.
Thanks
Bruce
