    Crap..... so, Starlink is selling a roof ride mount that is not backward compatible? That seems odd. And, the description of compatibility on their website is not intuitive, which indicates it is compatible with the self-self-acuated disk, but is that gen 1, Gen 2, or only Gen 3? I sent a...

    I have the Gen 2 Starlink dish and I just ordered the Gen 3 Roof Ridge Mount that works with the Gen 3 dish. I just assumed that the Gen 2 dish would work with the Gen 3 Ridge Mount or is that not correct?

    I'm replacing my roof soon and was going to order the non-penetrating roof mount from the Starlink site, but when I click on the shopping tab it goes to a blank page. I have tried this a couple of times. Is Starlink not selling accessories through its website now? I see that Amazon and other...

    My Starlink Square dish has mostly been working ok, but after replacing an Asus Zen Mesh router with an Eero 6E I am not getting the range to access the internet in an outdoor location about 200 feet from the house. The Asus gave enough signal strength to access the net but the Eero does not...

    Yesterday we were out and my wife's iPhone received a notification and she was able to view the camera from a remote location.... mystery. Maybe it works sometimes and not others rather than just never.... more investigation to be done.

    Thanks for the link to the CGNAT article. That helps to explain why I cannot access the camera from a remote location. Working on it.....

    Starlink, Asus Mesh, Wyze V3 Camera, No Remote Access... I have a rectangular dishy using the ethernet adapter connected to my Asus Mesh system. I did not put the SL router in bypass mode and things have been working fine. I bought a Wyze V3 cam to identify where some mouse are accessing a...

    My first was an Osborne, a sewing machine like computer that was pricey for the day and ran the CPM operating system.

    THANKS! I reconnected at things are working again with a direct connection to th SL router. In the past I did not use bypass mode with my mesh system and everything worked fine. So, I'm going to try that again and plug the mesh into the ethernet adapter and hope things work as they did...

    This morning I have no Starlink Internet connection and there is something unusual in my wifi settings, a network called "stinky." I first did a reset on the router (unplug 3 times) then tried to setup the router with network name and password, but it was not finding the SL router. I do have...

    I ordered the SL short wall mount to relocate the dish to a higher point and more to the left only to discover that the fascia boards are aluminum and that does not seem feasible for an install. So, I am back to a roof mount. The non penetrating roof mounts concern me since we have occasional...

    I have Dishy2 and have had the ethernet adapter installed about a month. The SL router is in a basement location that does not provide enough coverage for the entire house so I connect the ethernet adapter to an Asus mesh via the ethernet adapter/cable that is in a more central location. I did...

    Ponytug: Thanks, very useful comments. The under-eave mount you are using may not be necessary since I can use one of the gable peaks for attaching the mount. The second, Weingard, mount looks like it would work, and the Starlink short wall mount would work on the two peaks facing in the front...

    In general, I find the posts and comments/recommendations here more useful than those at Reddit or Facebook. So, I'm hoping for some wisdom from the experiences of others here....
