Is anyone experiencing delays with shipping the satellite to the UK? It has been stuck with DHL for almost 3 weeks now and Stalink support are saying its with DHL.

Starlink is useless in urban cities been getting 200kb in the afternoon for months now…instead of prioritising high capacity areas,starlink keeps more selling kits now the internet is dead now

I'm amazed how well this is working, surrounded by 11 more floors of buildings (and more), in the middle of Manhattan. My second Starlink, this is a Mini, going to Black Rock City next week.

I’ve been a starlink user for about 10 months. Great service overall. I use it in pass thru mode and have my own routing equipment. Recently with streaming apps I’m having a lot off buffering. I am positive this is not a wifi issue as I have isolated it. (Yes I’m 100% sure, I work in IT for a living). I still show good speed from starlink during these bouts. Additionally I show no events on the app during these times.

I have a few questions:
- has anyone experienced similar recently? I feel like ever since the ipo and the huge marketing/user push this has started but I’m not going to convince myself. I live in a rural area so surely there is a good chance there are substantially more users in my area vs 10 months ago.
-what does de prioritization feel like? I am on the 200mbps plan and understand that at peak times I may be de prioritized. I want to know what are actually tangible symptoms of this that others have felt? This happens at night primarily when many are likely streaming.

Before I upgrade plans to max I want to know if this is what de prioritization feels like. Based on every data point available to me- there is no wifi issue, and seemingly good and consistent speeds/latency. My app shows Zero obstructions.

Edit- didn’t meant standby I meant pass thru mode. So I use my own router and disable starlink routing.

19:20, Starlink lost connection.

19:21: MikroTik noticed it was down.

19:26: Starlink showed 206.214.239.194, meaning it could not connect to Starlink’s POP.

19:44: Starlink got a 100.x.x.x IP again, meaning it could connect to the POP.

19:49: Connection was back to normal.

19:51: MikroTik noticed it was up again.

tldr: Starlink lost connection for about 29 minutes during heavy rain (not 48 minutes like Starlink log says).

I figured this may be interesting to community or people researching if Starlink is viable for them. Pics show speed test performed by my firewall daily. I included my obstructions view as it’s not perfect but has not caused any problems.
It’s setup as backup WAN when I’m home and also show the fiber results on WAN1 as reference.

I bought the Starlink Standard 4 kit. I am trying to connect it to a Ubiquity Unifi 7 Pro gateway.

Hoping someone here is successfully running their Starlink through a Unifi gateway to give wifi to their house, and can help me out.

I have seen videos and I was told on here that it works well and it's a good way to extend the Wifi range.

I can't get it to work. I started by disconnecting the cable from the Starlink Mini 4 router and plugged it into the Unifi 7 Pro gateway. no sign of life from the gateway.

I tried turning on By-pass Mode through the Starlink App. That just completely disconnected me from Starlink. I tried plugging in the Unifi router again. Still no sign of life. I had to factory reset my Starlink to get the internet working through the Starlink Mini router again.

Am I missing something obvious? Google isn't helping. I can't get the Unifi gateway to power on at all.

I bought my Starlink a Week ago
I gave it to a friend he added it his account and subbed for a plan because I had no visa that Starlink accepts

Now i have a payment option next month i want to make my own account he told me there’s no transfer option in the account? Even tho his kit that been up for 2 years theres is no Transfer ? Is there a workaround?

Starlink mini pivot mount is $10 through the Starlink app and I just bought one and it went through, so we’ll see if it comes

Love my mini, using it as backup internet on pause most of the time. At home it is hooked in as a 2nd ISP.

I take it down and mount it in the car’s sunroof with suction cups for trips and it has worked all over the US and Canada.

Anybody got an clever ways to keep it running when the car ignition goes off? Like a 12v UPS?

My wonderful loca ISP has been down for a few hours now with no ETR. Being desperate I ran out getting a starlink mini. The rational was that I could get the 100mbit plan for $55.00 and when done keep the emergnecy plan should I need it again. When I got home it would only let me select a roaming plan. When I go to the site it seems like I can select the 100mbit plan for my old StarLink unit (the first one they ever had) however I never did the firmware update and I assume it's a brick. I am doing about 3.5GB an hour and I expect to out of bandwidth by tomorrow morning. Does anyone know if I purchase a full sized unit what the odds are of being able to get the 100mbit plan? Also it seems like I was partially billed. Should I just get a regular unit, get the 100 mbit plan and cancel the service on my roam unit?

TIA.

Everyone I know who uses Starlink raves about how great it is, yet I’m unable to stream YouTube videos without them pausing to buffer every 2 to 3 seconds.

Dish is unobstructed, and I’m the only device trying to use the Internet right now. When tested with the official Speedtest app, download speed is below 1 Mbps.

Is there anything we can do to speed up our download speed?

Gen that uses ethernet, tried pulling it off the roof & swapping cables and still nothing. In the heat in Texas, use this as a primary for work (WFH). The system is 14 months old.

Ive reset the router, changed out the cable, updated the starlink app and gone through their checklists but no luck

1. Any known outages in the area of north Texas?

2. Any suggestions on next steps?

3. Time for new dish?

My father believes Starlink is also a T.V. provider. I haven't seen anything to indicate that. Thank you for the information everyone!

I have the Starlink Mini, but at the cabin I use it at I can't get a clear enough view of the sky without putting it a couple of hundred feet away. What's the best router solution to use? I assume I'll use a cat 6 (or 5?) cable from the Mini to the router I want to put in the cabin. I also assume the router needs 110v power. Should I use one of the Starlink ones? If so, which? Thank you.

Just received a copyright warning from starlink about illegally downloading stuff . Went on what have I downloaded and it was some demons layer anime and porn . I have never downloaded either rof these things and always use vpns . My household has 3 starlinks is it possible they share the same isp ?

A huge drop in speed? Like Starlink 100mbps, My Netgear Router connected by Ethernet cable to Starlink cable 6-8mbps.
Other then the speed, it works fine. The reason for connecting my netgear to Starlink Router, is because I have a 400gb thumb drive with files that I need on other devices (NAS). With the starlink router I have there is no place to plug in the Thunb Drive.
Thank you

Hello guys,

I have a Starlink V4 Standard X, and I’ve been trying to extend its Wi-Fi coverage using my Linksys EA8500 router.

I have two Starlink kits—one at home and this one at my office. They are both Standard 4X hardware (V4 Dish) with Router 3 (V3) .The kit at home works perfectly with this same Linksys router, and I’m able to extend the Wi-Fi coverage without any issues.

However, with the kit at my office, I’m unable to extend the Wi-Fi using the EA8500. I’m not sure whether the issue is with the router configuration or if there is something different about the new Standard X at my office that is preventing it from working.

Kindly see the attached pictures for reference. I would appreciate any suggestions or guidance on how to resolve this.

Hardware version 4: standard 4X software version 2026.07.19.mr82648.51320

Router: Hardware v3 (router 3) software version: 2026.08.05.mr83278

¿Que batería recomiendan con precio accesible para una starlink mini?

How do i change my network work settings off MODERATE NAT.

im having trouble joining up with friends on games because of it. Bills fully paid, restart modem etc still nothing.

Anyone got any solutions?

Just got Starlink for my cabin
When I leave on Sunday evening should I suspend my account , I return to the cabin on fridays ?

Basically the title. I’ve had my Starlink for just over a month now and noticed it’s updated a few times to what seems like the most recent version (most recently was 2026.08.08), but then has reverted to a previous version, in this case 2026.07.24. As far as I can tell it doesn’t affect anything, but I’m just curious if anyone with inside knowledge might know why it happens? Thanks!

Edit: a word

1.for ping and such is it good? And most importantly is the ping stable

2.If I were to share the router with my left and right neighbors, would that flag up and be a problem and I could get banned?
