Will Starlink Work with Obstructions?

The parts of the 3D dome that are red warn users that obstructions could stop them connecting to Starlink's network of 1,650 satellites. Blue indicates no obstructions. Based on the scanner, users can decide where best to place their Starlink dish.

Can Starlink be blocked?

Straight answer is YES.

Does Starlink need a clear view?

The best guidance we can give is to install your Starlink at the highest elevation possible where it is safe to do so, with a clear view of the sky. Users who live in areas with lots of tall trees, buildings, etc. may not be good candidates for early use of Starlink.
