arXiv:2610.35874v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Low-Earth-Orbit (LEO) satellite networks are expanding broadband access, but major Real-Time Communication (RTC) platforms, including Google Meet, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams, still rely on service-point selection mechanisms that appear to be largely shaped by terrestrial-network assumptions. As a result, they may not consistently account for LEO-specific dynamics such as satellite topology and Point-of-Presence (PoP) changes, especially during in-flight connectivity. To characterize RTC service-point selection over Starlink, we measure RTC performance using a Canada-wide testbed and more than 24 hours of in-flight experiments. Our results show clear platform differences. Google Meet tends to align more closely with the serving PoP, consistent with broader observed edge coverage. Zoom follows a regional service-point selection pattern, while Microsoft Teams often remains tied to fixed service points. Moreover, we show that in-flight PoP handovers can shift traffic egress points mid-session, and that RTC platforms respond differently to these changes. In some cases, this interaction leads to suboptimal service-point selections and RTT inflation. Overall, our findings suggest that LEO connectivity can expose mismatches between Starlink egress dynamics and RTC service-point selection, motivating further measurement and LEO-optimized designs for service placement and selection.
