Does Starlink transmit location data? What else?

They added Mexico decades ago. Both for this reason, and because we’re the busiest border crossing in the world. Many people live on one side and work on the other and families are scattered between the two. Lots of Americans, too, housing and medical are much cheaper there.

Thanks, does the IP of your Starlink update depending on your current location then?

This, although I have been recently moved to a local POP. I live in DC Metro and started off in NYC area. Then randomly I was in Atlanta metro for a while, then back to NYC. Now I am in Ashburn (maybe 30 miles from me) which is a HUGE improvement for things that tried to serve me local stuff, like stores, news, etc.

For me it shows a location 300 km away from me.

Is that where the Starlink base station I use is?

I think the IP is mostly tied to which POP is providing your service. I recently got moved from Los Angeles to Seattle: now websites that use IP geolocation think I moved. (I have residential fixed service, not roaming.)

There are many other ways to geolocate computers btw but most of those you can override. You can’t do much about where your IP address looks like.

no. it defaults to your shipping address.
