Starlink is a satellite internet constellation operated by Starlink Services, LLC, an international telecommunications provider that is a wholly owned subsidiary of American aerospace company SpaceX, [5] providing coverage to over 100 countries and territories.
This is a list of countries by Internet connection speed for average and median data transfer rates for Internet access by end-users. The difference between average and median speeds is the way individual measurements are aggregated.
A study in 2021 showed that the Starlink satellites orbit at 550 km altitude, with an average RTT latency of 45 ms. [38] Another study in 2022 showed that the latency of the Starlink network is 1.8 ms to 22.8 ms more than the latency of terrestrial networks according to a measurement study conducted in the Metro Vancouver area.
Elon Musk's Starlink also provides satellite internet access within Greece since its commercial rollout in Q2 2022. It is currently the best option suitable for remote locations that don't have any wired access to the internet. It promises a stable and low-latency experience which also allows gaming.
And Starlink's commercial business also continues to grow and grow. In 2025, Quilty forecast that it will count 7.8 million people around the world as customers and generate $11.8 billion in sales.
The Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) is a communications protocol used by hosts and adjacent routers on IPv4 networks to establish multicast group memberships. IGMP is an integral part of IP multicast and allows the network to direct multicast transmissions only to hosts that have requested them.

[citation needed] The lower one's ping is, the lower the latency is and the less lag the player will experience. High ping and low ping are commonly used terms in online gaming, where high ping refers to a ping that causes a severe amount of lag; while any level of ping may cause lag, severe lag is usually indicated by a ping of over 100 ms.
