BREAKING: Starlink is delivering faster download speeds than other terrestrial ISPs in 22 out of 23 markets in Africa, per Ookla.
• Upload speeds doubled in Central & East Africa and nearly tripled in Southern Africa.
• Now serving ~500,000 users across rapidly expanding markets.
• Latency reduced by over 80% in Southern & Eastern Africa since 2024.
• 5 to 6 times faster than local providers in Botswana and Guinea Bissau
