Is Starlink down right now?

No. Our checks are finding no problems with Starlink right now. That verdict is live, and the banner at the top of this page carries it too. We re-check Starlink continuously using its official status feed, direct network probes and reports from visitors, stopping at the first check that gives a clear answer, and the page updates itself as soon as anything changes. A green verdict does not rule out a fault affecting only some users or regions.

The problems visitors report most often on this page are can't connect, DNS / site unreachable, high latency, slow or laggy, lag or disconnects and no response / timing out. Those are the options the report button offers for Starlink, chosen for how this service actually fails rather than a generic list, and the "user reports" chart above breaks down which ones people are picking right now.

Our checks run from one place on the internet, so a fault limited to your region or network can be real while our probes succeed. With Starlink specifically, Starlink depends on line-of-sight to satellites, so obstructions, weather, dish misalignment, or local ground station congestion can break service for one user while others nearby stay online. That is why this page reports what it observed rather than declaring the service healthy, and why reports from other visitors count toward the verdict.

For Starlink, check the Starlink app's signal strength and obstruction map, and run a speed test from a wired device connected to your router. A problem that follows you across networks and devices is very unlikely to be yours.

If this page shows evidence of problems, the fault is most likely on Starlink's side. Specifically: do not repeatedly restart your dish or router, as this can trigger rate-limiting on reconnection attempts. Wait at least 10 minutes between restarts. Reporting it here helps other people see they are not alone.

Continuously, around the clock. Starlink does not publish a machine-readable status feed, so we cannot read a verdict from them. We probe starlink.com directly over HTTP, fall back to an ICMP ping if that is inconclusive, and weigh reports from visitors. That means we can tell you the service is unreachable, but not what Starlink says about it. The verification tier box on this page names whichever check produced the verdict you are reading, so you can see how direct the evidence is.

Yes, at starlink.statuspage.io, and it is linked further up this page. That is Starlink's own account of their service and it is the place to look for their estimate of a fix. We read it where we can, but we publish our own observations beside it rather than only repeating theirs, because an operator's status page can lag a problem their users are already hitting.

No. status.buzz is an independent monitoring site operated by LuzLab LLC, with no connection to Starlink or starlink.com. It reads publicly available endpoints and status feeds, and publishes what it observed. For account or billing problems you need Starlink's own support, not us.
