Richmond, VA, combines urban living, suburban neighborhoods, and rural communities. While city neighborhoods often have access to cable and fiber, homes and businesses in surrounding counties may face slow DSL or limited internet options. DishNinjas provides professional Starlink installation for both residential and commercial properties, delivering fast, reliable satellite internet anywhere with a clear view of the sky.


Why Starlink Is a Great Fit for Virginia

Many suburban and rural areas around Richmond—including Henrico, Chesterfield, Hanover, Powhatan, Goochland, Amelia, Caroline, Spotsylvania, Stafford, and surrounding counties—still have limited access to high-speed internet. Starlink bypasses traditional cable and DSL infrastructure, providing reliable connectivity for homes, farms, and businesses in these areas.


Benefits of Starlink for Virginia Residents and Businesses:


  • Download speeds: 50–250 Mbps

  • Upload speeds: 10–30 Mbps

  • Low latency: 20–40 ms, ideal for video calls, gaming, and business operations

  • No long-term contracts or data caps

  • Works anywhere with open sky access



What Comes with the Starlink Kit?

Every Starlink installation by DishNinjas includes:


  • Starlink Dish (Gen 2 or Gen 3) – Self-aligning, weather-sealed

  • WiFi Router – Dual-band with mesh capabilities

  • 75-foot cable – Connects dish to router/power unit

  • Power supply – Rated for year-round conditions
