Align the Performance Connector end of the Starlink cable indicated by the red notch and plug into your Starlink by holding the end of the plug and firmly inserting into the dish.
Connect the other end of the Starlink cable to the power supply. Install either the AC (2A) or DC (2B) Power Cable into the power supply, depending on your power source, and plug into a power outlet. Ensure all cables are fully plugged in until the plug face is flush with the surface.
If needed, to remove the Starlink cable, rotate the collar counterclockwise and pull out to disconnect from your Starlink
3. Find Mounting Location and Align Starlink
Your Starlink needs a clear view of the sky so it can stay connected with satellites as they move overhead. Objects that obstruct the connection between your Starlink and the satellite, such as a tree branch, pole, or roof, will cause service interruptions. Use the obstruction tool in the App to ensure you have selected a suitable mounting location.
An alert on the App will show if you need to rotate Starlink to be properly aligned. Tap the alert to use the alignment tool.
Ensure to check for obstructions and your Starlink is properly aligned before permanently installing your Starlink.
4. Connect Starlink
If using a Starlink Router, connect the Router to the Advanced Power Supply using the cable provided in the router kit. Step through the Starlink install process on the Starlink App. You can utilize the Starlink App to view statistics, access terminal settings and contact support.
If using a third-party router, use the provided ethernet cable in the Performance Kit. After you have set up your 3rd party router and connected to Starlink with the WAN port, open the Starlink app. If the app says "Starlink unreachable", create a static route in your router configuration settings.
Please refer to your router's documentation for instructions on setting a static route.
Note: These options may differ depending on your specific hardware and network configuration.
