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.
Long time boss, do you have issue of your Grandstream access point not opening certain app like Opay and JUMIA,have you experienced that with you access point?

Check the attached image and see the error message

After sometimes it will be removed from your account you can use the Router as extender though but you can't use the dish anymore
After some times like how long ? days , months,years, decades or centuries?

Have you really seen anyone his/her old Starlink was disabled because of replacement of new kit, I want us to be as realistic as possible based on real life happening and not theoretical.


When i said Disabled (I mean Starlink remotely destroying, bricking and rendering the kit useless to never work again even if you reactivate the kit and want to make double subscription payments)

If there is no return request you keep it but after activating new one the old one will be disabled permanently in due course
Disabled as how ?
Was your old kit disabled by Starlink?
I think you can still use the old kit but it must remain within your account and name and you must pay double for subscription. I don't understand this disabled of a thing you are talking about. Have you seen anyone that his/her own was disabled?

Tanks I know it a very good buy I watch the review on YouTube before buying, pls do you have any first hand review about this sms 5kva 24v inverter, how durable the inverter his bcus am planning to buy it as it is cheap I just want to b sure it durable and reliable
As long as you avoid overloading the inverter, inverters hate overload. Sms inverters are mostly HF (high frequency, transformerles) inverter,i use low frequency(transformer base)inverter,I also prefer low frequency inverters.

STARLINK has been so good, but they should not relent ooo, they should never stop getting better,omo the only thing that will make me consider switching to the Amazon is if they offer verified unlimited gigabit speed without bandwidth throttling at a competitive price ,at this point i will jump.

I do understand. I set each ssd to work on all bands, so phones connect to the best one they can connect to. Some Clients use very old phones. I've like 3 ssid, one with portal so that clients have to get a voucher before they can access. One with no portal for phones that won't allow portal but I've to get their phone mac address and white list it and they connect. All of this is so that even if they share the password, they can't connect since both systems white list with mac address.
Nice 👍

You can ask questions here so that others can learn
Greetings to you boss.
I want to ask you something
If you are using enterprise grade outdoor access point. Do you use dual band for business(clients)
Like do you broadcast 2 SSID for subscribers (one 2.4ghz and one 5ghz) or you use one SSID (with dual band 2.4ghz and 5ghz combined in one SSID name).

I don't know if you understand my point
Which do you think it's better?

It took a awhile, but it seems Speedaf has sank to the level of NIPOST 😩😩. Just go through thier socials, it is littered with complaints, probably the TEMU coming into the game, has overwhelmed them because i don't just understand....circa 2021 downwards, their services was so top notch, so i am here left wondering what happened...i thought them Chinese was thier management team?
They started so well in 2020 but it's all trash and nonsense delivery company now worst than or same level with nipost.
It's really sad to see speedaf go down the drains.
It used to be my favourite since 2020.

This is a mistake or a system glitch. I have been credited thrice (monthly sub) and nothing of such ever happened to me. Last one being December 2025
And during this time your card wasn't billed?

Maybe it's a glitch or i didn't pay attention, well i removed my card this time to be sure i used the free credit,i will add it back later.

Let me tell you guys something,if you are given a free credit, remove your billing card immediately and finish the credit first, last year i was billed on my card and credit was taken too at the same time. Just an observation.

Starlink is so so good,i have never in my life in Nigeria seen a service provider that cares so much about their customers, i will use Starlink till old age ooo.
Can the so called MTN fibre x or other service providers in Nigeria replace your network equipment free of charge with extra free month if damaged. Even if fibre network reach my side now it will be very hard for me to leave Starlink at this point cos i have fallen deeply in love with Starlink 😂.

Be like Starlink no get available replacement units on ground cus they keep shifting delivery
They also shifted my own,i think they prioritise new buyers first before those asking for replacement.

Why not opt for buying from Starlink authorized distributors then they will refund it for you in credit
Men country hard i can't cough out 500+k right now just to buy another Starlink equipment,there are other priorities that will demand that money,i wish I had available leftover cash.

Woooow! That's a loophole you just revealed. Both the old and the replacement will still work with one single account paymenthuh It will surprise me if starlink let's this happen permanently for these replacement cases.

Starlink once sent me a replacement router and I'm still using the old router because i repaired the power problem that spoiled in it before that warranted a replacement. I'm using the new one as Mesh to extend network around house. But routers are different from dish. The dish is where the account is linked and not the router
Please how did you repair the gen 2 router,i can't wait for the replacement to arrive, it's taking too long to shipped out. Please how can i repair my router

I read on reddit some were able to do it with zero issue but the kit has to be left unused for some time

But if starlink catch you 100% you will pay for full kit price
For some time months or years ?

Are you a shareholder? Do you know the racket that will arise from this loophole?

On this same thread, someone was asking for a format to request for a replacement knowing fully well that there was nothing wrong with his unit.
My question is valid and genuine, I don't support those that lie that their equipment is bad to receive new equipment. Starlink should scrutinize every request for replacement to detect those that are criminally minded.

Starlink forbids one to give it out. It's there in there terms and conditions. If starlink gives you a new Kit, your account is still on the old Kit. Infact, both can work side by side. I tried it
.
But it pains me that i am unable to sell my old Gen2 Kit to a willing buyer. I have full Gen2 Kit and ethernet adapter sef, all just lying fallow. That's over 500K worth of cash lying idle

Maybe @dustmalik can shed more light
Is this policy not to their own loss and disadvantage in a way,because if we give it out to people who can't afford to buy equipment but can afford the monthly sub,is it not to their own advantage and more profits for space x company.
I don't understand the reason behind this at all.
