Installing Starlink for Shmee150: Delivering High-Speed Internet the Active Digital Way

Starlink Install

At Active Digital, we believe that great technology should always be delivered with great service. Every installation we carry out is about more than just fitting equipment, it’s about providing a seamless experience, careful attention to detail, and making sure everything works perfectly from day one.

Recently, we had the pleasure of helping automotive YouTuber and content creator Tim Burton, better known online as Shmee150 with the installation of a Starlink satellite internet system at his new home. With millions of followers around the world, Shmee150 is one of the most recognisable names in automotive content creation. His videos feature everything from supercar reviews to global car events, which means fast and reliable internet connectivity is essential for uploading videos, managing content, and staying connected with his audience.

For many homes, especially those in more rural or private locations, traditional broadband or fibre internet can be slow, unreliable, or simply unavailable. Installing new fibre infrastructure can be costly and time-consuming, and in some areas it’s not a practical solution. Using a constellation of low-Earth-orbit satellites, we can deliver high-speed broadband directly from space. Unlike traditional satellite internet systems that rely on satellites much further away, this network operates significantly closer to Earth, allowing for faster speeds and lower latency. For homeowners, creators, and businesses who need dependable connectivity in locations where fibre isn’t an option, Starlink has quickly become one of the most powerful alternatives available. At Active Digital, we’ve seen a growing demand for professional Starlink installation across the UK as more people discover the benefits of satellite broadband.

For someone like Shmee150, internet performance is a key part of running a successful online brand. Uploading high-resolution video content, managing social media platforms, and communicating with audiences; all rely on a strong and consistent connection. That made Starlink an ideal solution for his new home. Our job was to ensure the system was installed in the best possible way so it could deliver reliable performance day in and day out.

One of the things that sets Active Digital apart is how we approach every installation. Rather than simply shipping equipment to customers, we personally deliver and install each system to make sure everything is configured correctly. For Tim’s property, the first step was identifying the optimal location for the connectivity dish. Satellite internet systems require a clear view of the sky in order to maintain a stable connection with the satellites overhead. Trees, buildings, and roof structures can sometimes interfere with signal paths, so positioning the solution correctly is essential. Make an Enquiry here

At Active Digital, customer experience is at the centre of everything we do. We believe technology should never feel complicated or stressful for the people using it. That’s why we deliver and install systems by hand, taking care of the entire process from setup to testing. By the time we leave, customers have a fully operational system that’s ready to use immediately. There’s no complicated setup, no uncertainty, and no troubleshooting required; just reliable technology working exactly as it should.

Although these types of solutions can be self-installed, having it professionally installed can make a significant difference in performance, ensuring each system is optimised for the environment it’s installed in. And for the team at Active Digital, helping customers access that technology, whether they’re automotive YouTubers like Shmee150 or homeowners simply looking for better connectivity; it’s exactly what we love to do.
