What is the work of this router please
Do I have to get it?

The router takes over WIFI services + more from the starlink router. For example if you want to use VPN inside your router instead of installing apps in all your devices.

Since i did this bypass mode i have seen improved speed, I can't argue with the person who said external router makes it better.

The solution is to get solar panels, charge controller, inverter and LiPo or Lithium iron battery pack. I have those but the Starlink consumption draws too much in addition to my usage.

So I have to get another battery pack

The problem now money to get solar o, business took a bad it, been a year+ now

Kee p checking the tracking code. I don't know how or who processed your replacement but I observed that they have started delivering faster than their shipping dates state, so your delivery date could change.

Alternately, you can message support to fast-track the shipping for the Router on the ground that you are solely relying on Starlink and have something urgent to do with it in a week as you couldn't wait for their delivery date

Thanks, let me contact them

Thanks. I have received my unit from Konga but

GTB and UBA card payments were both declined - Naira.

I tried GTB dollar ... declined also.

How can I pay to buy a plan and activate my device ? Thanks!

Make sure your Starlink is powered ON and in clear view of the sky while you’re in the process of activating

Please any recommendations for power backup that is reliable and cost effective?

I am looking to get a 50k bluegate ups or something in that range. I just need a reliable power backup for my starlink that can provide 1 hour of uptime only, but can do so consistently for a long time

I just need something for minor power interruptions. Rarely longer than 30 minutes. But long term reliability is my fear.

Any experienced person to give their take or recommended alternatives?

I am interested too

I am worried that it might not work.

If you order from Jumia or Konga you will get it on time but you will do ROAM plan.

If you go through Starlink they will put you in a waiting list

I ordered my Starlink from Jumia and I reside in Omoku/Rivers State where I'm making use of the device.
Prior to mounting the device, at ground level when I did my speed test I got about 79 Mbps after mounting the device on a pole I was expecting to get at least above 100Mbps to my utmost surprise the speed dropped to below 70 Mpbs.

Please gurus in the house I need your help on how to troubleshoot the problem

I had 150+ ground level, up my water tank it never gets to 100... maybe give it time

I have an Open box Starlink Ethernet Adapter (Never used before)…. I bought it thinking I will have a spot in my house that won’t have access to Starlink wifi coverage….

I am also selling it with the Starlink Router mount and the Ethernet adapter mount I ordered last year from Amazon….

I do not need the mount again since it didn’t come on time before getting it another one

Everything goes for 65k

If you are in UYO better but if you are in another state you will be responsible for the waybill

The ethernet adapter is the one for external router right?

I am currently getting like 7-15 mbps on speed tests but really when I download , it is usually hard to get 1mbps speeds. Which is confusing.

I think I am the only one with SL in this area, and I still have network issue maybe na the obstruction
