1. Set Up Your Starlink

Start by making sure your Starlink is set up and connected to the internet prior to setting up your router.

Connect to your existing Starlink WiFi network from your device.

​

2. Position the Routers

Place the router in the desired location. We recommend the following guidelines for setting up your mesh network:

• For best performance use a wired connection to your main Starlink router or Starlink Mini.
• Place routers no more than two rooms away from each other.
• Avoid multiple obstructions (ex: cement walls and metal appliances)
• Place the router off the ground, such as on a shelf.

Repeat with additional mesh nodes.

​

3. Select Install Method Choose your preferred installation method, either on a table or wall and install the stand.

More information on stand installation later in document.

​

4. Connect to Network

Insert the power cable to the back of the router and plug the power supply into a power outlet. An LED will turn on signifying the unit is powered on.

The Starlink Router Mini can be meshed to your current Starlink system (excluding the Gen 1 Router) either wired or wirelessly. For a wired connection to a Starlink Mini Kit, use 15m Mini Starlink Ethernet Cable. If connecting to another Starlink router, use a RJ45 Cat5e or greater. For a wireless connection, power on your router and follow prompts in the app.

More information on wire and wireless meshing later in document.
