Did the card expire and you changed it?

I think the issue will be from Zenith Bank or interswitch

Try call the customer service or visit the nearest branch to lodge a compliant

There was a time Gtbank card stopped working for starlink.
Is Gtb working again?
My Ecobank works but expiring next month and I can't renew card till June.
I only have Gtbank and Zenith card remaining. Poster above is complaining again that Zenith isn't working.

Anyone using Gtbank or Zenith?

I have been using Opay physical VerveCard since last year, and never fails to be debited.

Maybe I'll move back to Gtb.
I swapped from Gtb when they stopped working over a year ago. Guess they've rectified it

Re: My SpaceX Starlink Internet Experience In Lagos, Nigeria by macuwon(m): 3:49pm On Apr 24, 2025
please i have two residential starlink devices tied to my address. Now i want to upgrade one of them so i can cater for about 200 users. I am looking at going for the business plans but from my little research, i read that i'll need to order for a new device to use the business plan.

But the issue is when i go to their order page, its saying i should join the waiting list that service is currently at capacity in my area. what does this mean and what can i do as alternative? Thanks

Why would you need a business plan when you are already on an unlimited residential plan?
If your need is to cater for 200 persons, just get the Ethernet adapter and a good access point and your residential plan will serve them well adequately.

Please, tell me more about this. I don't want to cater for 200 people though...lol...I just want to extend the service to a relative that leaves about 150meters from where I live. Please, how do I go about it?

After changing the name of my Starlink device and setting up a password, it resets after a while and returns to "Starlink" as the name, without any password.

This makes people to crowd in front of my house, tapping into my network. I am worried about the security challenge it poses.

Is anyone facing this? How can I resolve it

Hello good people, i have been using starlink since 2023, while using the same zenith bank card to make payment, however this month starlink keeps failing to charge the card and there is money in the card, now my subscription has been disabled, any good suggestion?

i use this to work and i need to be back to work on tuesday; i have tried dollar card, naira card, from zenith to opay to uba card.

Any suggestions or help will be appreciated thank you.
I have been using First bank naira Mastercard linked to my Current account since last year For my subscription. The card expired in March and I was initially worried whether the subscription will to through on my new card. I went to the bank this week, got a new card, updated my payment details and it the subscription went through effortlessly!

Consider it

are u facing power fluctuatuions?

Ethernet adapter, enterprise level access point that offer voucher codes for clients, a poe+ switch to power it, electricity. That's all
My oga, please which ethernet adapter do you recommend and where can I get it? Kindly share pics at your convenience too

Also, what exactly are Enterprise Level Access Point and POE, and are there any you recommend?

Please forgive my lame questions. This is not my forte

That's the ONLY reason why it'll reset and change. Starlink only needs 4+ power blinks to reset.
Buy a UPS to stay in-between power socket and starlink and it'll absorb the power fluctuations

Read the page before this. It was the major issue and was well treated with full recommendations. We don't want to repeat issues not directly about starlink

I see! Within what period (minutes or hours or days) should this 4+ power outages happen after which it will reset?

Lol...yea it is. Just very occasional outages especially this season of constant rainfall and clouded skies

Connect the poe+ to starlink via Ethernet cable. Then poe+ to your access point.
Go to gdms.cloud to create an account. When they reply, you log in and add your access point to the cloud management. When successful, reset your device and it'll be managed by cloud and you can do all your settings as you wish from the cloud site or mobile app GWN.

I learnt it all from YouTube tutorials oh. You can search and watch videos there and get to know what to do. If I could, you will too very easily.

Not really total outage. Flickering of power. Consecutive low and normal current (flickering in seconds) can trigger it

You can't get the residential again until further notice from Starlink company.

Chipper card is working fine, are you sure your account don't have issue

Is it through PoE cable (Ap mode) or through WiFi extender (Extender mode)?


Are you the one powering the TP link CPE device or those receiving the service indoor?
