Bypass mode allows you turn off the Starlink router and connect a third-party router directly to Starlink. When bypass mode is activated, the Starlink router’s WiFi features are completely disabled. You can enable bypass mode in the Starlink app under “Settings.” To disable bypass mode, you can perform a factory reset.
