Starlink’s (SpaceX) ultrafast satellite broadband service has finally responded to complaints from small boat owners about the company’s recent restrictions on international roaming, which threatened to make the service untenable for those who sail around different parts of the world – sometimes for months.

One of the biggest problems with using direct optical (laser) links in free space (i.e. out in the open air) between sites is that atmospheric distortion (turbulence) over distance can create interference, which causes the data speeds to slow and stability to weaken. But a solution may have been found by a joint team at Wits University (South Africa) and the University of Bordeaux (France).

A new report has revealed that two UK broadband ISPs, Exascale and Squirrel Internet, have recently decided to stop selling access to Gigaclear’s alternative full fibre network.
