Not bad, although new Model S has more range & faster charging. 3 & Y should use long range version, as Performance version is meant for max speed & handling, not max range.
Supercharger network is being upgraded to 250kW to 300kW, so that will help too.

Some traffic could just go terminal -> satellite -> satellite -> terminal and never touch the regular Internet

Similar to fiber optic. We are trying to ride the terrestrial fiber optic laser technology forcing function, but modified for use in vacuum.
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Jul 15, 2021
If we can do this successfully, then anything developed for ground/undersea fiber is automatically better in orbit

What wavelength are you using for laser crosslinks... or is that top secret?

Does having Laser links (present in the newer satellites) help in improving speeds & reducing the latency? Or they're mainly to provide Internet connection in the Polar regions?
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Jul 15, 2021
Laser links in orbit can reduce long-distance latency by as much as 50%, due to higher speed of light in vacuum & shorter path than undersea fiber

More ground stations & less foolish packet routing will make the biggest differences.
Looking at speed of light as ~300km per millisecond & satellite altitude of ~550km, average photon round-trip time is only ~10ms, so a lot of silly things have to happen to drive ping >20ms.

@elonmusk · Jul 15, 2021
Glad it’s working! The sheer amount of work done by SpaceX engineering, production & launch teams is amazing.
Ping should improve dramatically in coming months. We’re aiming for <20ms. Basically, you should be able to play competitive FPS games through Starlink.

This is a major problem! Between civilization ending with a bang or a whimper, this trend suggests the latter.

Due to lack of banging, civilization might ended with a whimper! Adult diaper sales growth is much higher than baby diaper sales growth.
