In reply to Elon Trump. 32 truly random character password (180 - 205 bits of entropy) is sufficient.

What a useless upgrade. Nobody used the modem form the 2nd gen. And now the 3rd Gen doesn’t have WPA3? Have fun with all the script kiddies deauthing and cracking the MAX 32 char WPA2 password… terrible.

I’m typing this on September 19, 2024.
If I go with Starlink, it will be my first time. I’ve been a CenturyLink DSL customer since 1998.
Does the current Starlink kit come with a Gen 3 router? Do I need any other equipment besides my various devices and an electrical outlet to plug the system into?
Btw… how many watts (or amps) does the system use?
Thanks.

In reply to Gary. You'll need the Ethernet adapter that Starlink sells in its store.

In reply to Viktor.

If you are buying a new Starlink for $499.00 for equipment and $120.00 a month for service
You will get a box with the. 3 gen antenna , a 3 gen router and some cables. It is easy to put together and covers over 2000 sq feet
You use Starlink ‘s directions from their app. Or go to a browser and ask for direction to install set up a Starlink gen 3.
Good luck it truly is a good internet provider for people who cannot get the cheep fast internet in town.

How does a gen 2 starlink router connect with an ethernet adapter? I have a Dell Alienware 18 Laptop that – for whatever reason – refuses to recognize the starlink wifi router, so I need to be able to use an adapter, but I see no place to connect it to the router. Does the adapter connect to the router via a wifi connection and then translate that to an ethernet port to be able to connect an ethernet connectable device to the internet?

I ordered the starlink business with the 1 TB of priority. None of the mounts available would work for my house so I had to modify a Gen 2 to fit because I have long eves on my home. I needed one that would extend out at least 36 inches. Finally got it up and everything hooked up, Butttt. Now I find out that i also need the starlink router (Gen3) to be a middle man between the starlink modem and my 3rd party gaming router along with the other attachment. It would have been nice to know ahead of time that i was going to also need these extras to get it working.

Seems that Gen3 HW is now made available in Europe. When trying to order in CZ, im being presented with what looks as the Gen3 HW setup. Any feedback or experience if thats the case? Trying to wait to get Gen3 as I have existing UTP cabling to the roof.

In reply to John P..

They do that when they have nothing to send out. Or you can fill in info but can’t enter payment info.
This is a company that makes money foremost; which is hard to do being a start-up. Also, they give free equipment and net around the world. When caught up; I doubt they’ll lower prices; since it’ll be for profit at said pnt.
Whole musk is badasz; their also slippery. That company will turn from altruistic to fascist as quick as others while making a hefty profit. Think about it… As big as they’ve become; still can’t get customer service on the phone.
