🛠️ Installation Steps
1. Unbox and Connect the Hardware
Attach the kickstand to the Starlink dish.

Plug one end of the Starlink cable into the dish, ensuring the locking feature is facing up.

Route the other end of the cable to the router and plug it into port #1 (marked with the Starlink symbol), with the locking feature facing down.

Connect the power cable to the power supply unit and then to the router.

2. Position the Dish
Place the dish in an area with a clear view of the sky, free from obstructions like trees or buildings.

Use the Starlink app's "Check for Obstructions" tool to find the optimal location.

If ground placement isn't feasible, consider mounting the dish on a roof, pole, or wall using appropriate accessories.


3. Align the Dish
Utilize the Starlink app's alignment tool to adjust the dish for optimal satellite connectivity.

The app will notify you if adjustments are needed and guide you through the process.


4. Connect to the Internet
On your device, connect to the Wi-Fi network named "STARLINK."

Open the Starlink app to customize your network name and set a secure password.

Monitor the router's LED indicator:

Flashing White: Attempting to connect

Solid White: Connected to the internet

Red: Connection failed

No Light: No power

Violet: Bypass mode activated

Wired Connections: The Gen 3 router includes RJ45 Ethernet ports. Remove the RJ45 cover to connect wired devices.
