Cotswold Telecoms are proud to announce that we are now Starlink Authorised Installers as part of the South West WiFi family.

Gloucestershire and the Cotswolds were some of the first places in the world to have access to the new Starlink broadband internet service. The service was then expanded to cover the whole of the Westcountry.

Starlink promises to transform the way rural areas connect to the internet with speeds of up to 350mbps download and 20mbps+ upload. Running a business from home or from any rural location will now be possible even in the most remote areas of The Cotswolds like, Gloucestershire, Cirencester, Stow-on-the-Wold, Morton-in-the-Marsh, Chipping Norton, Bourton-on-the-Water, Chipping Campten, Broadway, Castle Coombe, Bidbury, Burford, Tedbury, Winchcombe, Cheltenham and Stroud.

Due to the low-latency of a Starlink connection it is suitable for video calling systems like Zoom and FaceTime. It also works with WhatsApp, mobile WiFi calling and Digital Voice/VoIP providers. We have now installed over 1000 Starlink systems and have had 100% positive customer satisfaction with the broadband connection.

As part of the Authorised Starlink Installer programme, we hold new Starlink kits in stock if you need a system installing as quickly as possible.

If you have ordered your Starlink system directly from Starlink (www.starlink.com) we can we can install your Starlink dish and router.

If you want help ordering your Starlink directly from Starlink, please do not hesitate to give us a call on 01285 440200 – we’ll be happy to talk you through the ordering process over the phone.

2. Booking your installation – To book your installation please either call on 01285 440200 or fill in the ‘Request an appointment’ form on this page.

3. Installing your hardware – Starlink requires a clear view of the Northern sky, but depending on the orientation and location of your property, we generally find that there is a suitable place to install the equipment. Our installation service invoices all the brackets, poles and other hardware you need.

The Starlink Version 2 ‘V2’ hardware does not have an ethernet port on the router and comes supplied with a WiFi only connection. You may require an ethernet port to connect your hardware to other networking equipment in your home or business. If this is the case, let us know and we able to supply this for you.

The new Starlink Gen4 kit does have two ethernet ports on the Starlink WiFi router, but requires an extra adaptor to mount the dish that has to be purchased separately.

Depending on where your router is located, we may also need to help you install some additional networking equipment to get your internet connection to the right place.

The Starlink monthly service charge is £75.00 inc VAT – payable directly to Starlink. You are not tied into a long-term contract like many of the traditional telecoms providers. Once your new service is up and running you can cancel the broadband element of any existing fixed line services or your entire phone line rental agreement.

Depending on where the dish needs to be mounted a longer cable may be required – the standard cable is 50ft – upgraded 75ft, and 150ft cables are available. Subject to availability, we normally carry these on our vans and are chargeable upgrades

We also install 5G and 4G broadband. Visit cotswoldtelecoms.co.uk/4g-5g for more details.

Starlink Residential Lite

Starlink Residential Lite will be available soon in The Cotswold and the rest of Gloucestershire, offering affordable rural broadband for those in hard-to-reach locations. With lower speeds but unlimited data, it’s a perfect solution for staying connected in remote areas.

With the introduction of Starlink Lite, rural areas can enjoy affordable and reliable internet connectivity. With download speeds of 50-100 Mbps and upload speeds of 5-25 Mbps, Starlink Lite provides unlimited data, though speeds may slow during peak times due to deprioritisation.

The Starlink Lite monthly will be cheaper than the full Starlink service, making it an ideal option for those looking for an affordable rural broadband solution. With no long-term contracts, you have the flexibility to cancel your service if needed.

New Starlink Business packages now available

Starlink Business now offers an entry level pricing tier at £80.00+VAT (£96.00) per month. This level of service includes 40GB of priority data and then falls back to standard data once the 40GB runs out. A static IP address is now available with this service. The next level of service is £150.00+VAT (£180.00) per month and includes 1TB of priority data.

These services offer a significant discount on the original price of the service and is much better value than leased lines and dedicated ethernet circuits. A major benefit of the Starlink system compared to leased lines is that you’re not tied into a long term contract. Once your hardware is purchased it belongs to you and you can cancel the service at anytime. You can find out more information about Starlink Business on their new webpage – https://www.starlink.com/business

Wireless Connections / WiFi

Starlink is so fast that the connection can be shared with multiple buildings or neighbours as long as you have a line-of-sight to the other location. This means that you can share the connection with other buildings at your location or share the initial Starlink hardware purchase and monthly charge with someone else.

Starlink delivers fantastic broadband speeds. However, as with all broadband connections, they tend to only include an entry level wireless access point with the included router. Ask us about our mesh wireless access points and UniFi network options if you want the very best WiFi connection available – you can also visit our website for more information – https://cotswoldtelecoms.co.uk/wifi-installation/

Digital Voice (VoIP) Telephone

If you want to cut the cord completely and retain your landline number, we are able to offer you our Digital Voice (VoIP) service. This service includes unlimited calls to UK landline and mobile phones.

Digital Voice service works with a free smartphone app which allows you to make and receive phone calls using a landline number from your mobile phone whenever it has an active internet connection (4G/5G or WiFi) or a from a physical corded or cordless phone system connected to your Starlink router (with ethernet adapter).
