Starlink Manuals & User Guides

Starlink, a division of SpaceX, is the world's first and largest satellite constellation using a low Earth orbit to deliver broadband internet capable of supporting streaming, online gaming, video calls, and more. Engineered by SpaceX, Starlink delivers high-speed, low-latency internet to users all over the world, particularly in areas where connectivity has been unreliable or completely unavailable. The system consists of thousands of small satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO) that communicate with designated ground transceivers and user terminals.

The Starlink Kit includes everything needed to connect to the network, including the Starlink dish (often customized with various mounts for specific installation needs), a Wi-Fi router, cables, and a base. The accompanying Starlink App helps users optimize their setup by identifying obstructions and managing their connection.

  The Standard Kit typically includes the Starlink dish, a base, a Wi-Fi router, a power cable, and the Starlink connection cable.

• Can I install Starlink on a moving vehicle?

  Standard Starlink mounts are not designed for use on moving vehicles. For mobility, Starlink offers specific high-performance hardware and mounts designed for in-motion use on vehicles and vessels.

• Does weather affect Starlink performance?

  Starlink is designed to withstand various weather conditions, including extreme cold, heat, heavy rain, and gale-force winds. The dish can also melt snow, though heavy accumulation may temporarily degrade performance.
