Starlink has become an important option for delivering connectivity to remote sites where traditional broadband is unavailable or unreliable. As more organizations adopt Starlink, understanding its real-world performance across different configurations becomes essential for both network planning and day-to-day operations.

Individual Starlink terminals typically provide around 200 Mbps download and 20 Mbps upload. For high-usage or multi-user sites, however, significantly higher throughput is often necessary — closer to fiber optic performance, where 1 Gbps has become the standard.

Kognitive Networks worked with Starlink and a Starlink authorized commercial reseller on a benchmark test using bandwidth bonding to combine the throughput of 6 Starlink terminals. Together, we demonstrated how Kognitive’s bonding of multiple Starlink terminals can deliver combined speeds that match or exceed fiber at remote sites. By combining Starlink’s global satellite network with Kognitive’s MPK bandwidth bonding technology, organizations can achieve fiber-like internet connectivity virtually anywhere in the world.

Testing at Scale: Real-World Benchmarking

The benchmarking test environment included six Starlink terminals with Starlink Priority Service, each directly connected to a Kognitive Edge VX SD-WAN appliance. A Multi-Path Konnect VPN (MPK-VPN) tunnel linked the Kognitive Edge appliance to a dedicated Kognitive private hub in London. This system was setup and continuously monitored in Kognitve Cloud, the integrated management platform for visibility and orchestration of all remote sites and services within the Kognitive ecosystem.

6 Starlink Terminal Bonding Test

For the duration of the test, Kognitive’s MPK technology provided intelligent distribution and optimization of traffic across all six Starlink connections – continuously adapting traffic flows based on real-time link conditions.

Key Performance Results

Download Performance

The bonded Starlink connection achieved download speeds ranging from 750 to 1900 Mbps, with sustained performance at 1.5 Gbps and overall average download speeds around 1.2 Gbps. These speeds varied somewhat during the tests, with a periodic fluctuation occurring approximately every 10 to 15 seconds. This behavior is likely related to Starlink’s internal resource management or satellite handoff processes.

Understanding this nuance of performance lets network planners set realistic expectations, and it highlights why adaptive bandwidth bonding solutions like MPK are essential for smoothing over those fluctuations.

Minimum Packet Loss, Even Under Load

Kognitive’s bonded network design maintained connection stability, throughout handoffs and changing link conditions. Across both upload and download testing, the system showed no ping loss, delivering reliable performance during stress tests.

Why Bonding Matters for Distributed Sites

Multi-Path Konnect (MPK) works behind the scenes to continuously evaluate each link, intelligently spreading traffic across Starlink connections to maximize throughput, minimize latency, and maintain service during link degradation.

For distributed businesses — from agricultural operations in rural areas to maritime fleets navigating open waters — this approach transforms Starlink from a single-point connection into a resilient, multi-path network fabric.

Wireless networks are rapidly matching the speed and efficiency of wired connections, making them essential for connecting remote sites, assets, and customers. However, unlike fixed wired infrastructure, wireless networks are inherently dynamic – factors such as rain fade, congestion, and fluctuating signal strength introduce variability that traditional wired networks don’t face.

While fiber and cable operate under fixed Service Level Agreements (SLAs) with guaranteed speeds in Megabits per second (Mbps), wireless networks follow a usage-based model. Instead of a fixed performance contract, both network speed and customer billing depend on the total data transmitted and received over the wireless link, measured in Gigabytes (GB) used over a given period.

For businesses, this fundamental difference makes data accountability critical. Without individual usage monitoring, intelligent traffic routing, and proactive management, wireless costs can escalate, mission-critical applications can suffer, and performance can become unpredictable.
