We just ordered a standard kit this week for our desert property. Very excited upgrading over Viasat. Going to connect it to Tp link mesh network to cover the whole property!
Good presentation! I am also trying to find a wall mount for this Gen 3. You mentioned it would be available to just snap in… Please advise some vendors for this gen 3 mounting. Thanks
Great video, I'm loking to get a starlink but in the site the information isn't clear about the version of the starlink, only thing showing is in the contents image and it looks like it's the Rev 2 because of the router and dish images... How do I make sure I'm ordering the Rev 3? Thanks
I like a lot of the engineering. I do question the ruggedness of the mounting hardware. And they don’t offer a grounding which is required by NEC code at the point of entry of the house. Seems easy since they are using Ethernet. An Ethernet lightning arrestor with a grounding screw to bond to the common communications ground of the house. I would also install a ground rod to take any direct strike into the earth below the lightning arrestor.
I bought the gen 3 standard kit also, and it has those gaps on the corners too, so I would like to know if those were normal or a defect, did you issue a ticket to the support already ?
I wonder if the new router would accept 48V rather than 57V. Would be excellent for mobile installations if you could power it from your 48V LiFePO4 system! I hope someone can test the DC Input voltage required. Too bad you cannot use USB-C PD 3.1 -- 48V at 5A would be 240W.
@@ZaiFuchigami Slap a boost converter on there, or some sort of voltage regulator. Most DC electronics accept anywhere from a narrow to wide range of input voltages, usually published or stamped on the electronics themselves.
I guess the reason why Gen 2 lacks the ethernet ports is because of the supply chain issue, not a mere cost-cutting attempt. Nice to see it has two now.
How does this one hold up to wind? With how easy that mount came out of the back of the dish I am just envisioning a horror story with it mounted to a stand or something and a wind gust hits at just the right angle to cause the mount to flex and pop out
I made it look easy, but that's only because I knew to apply upward pressure on the two tabs that lock it into place. Without some concentrated pressure on the two locking tabs, there is no way it slides out. In very strong wind, something on the mount itself is more likely to break first.
I am about to order a new Starlink residencial Kit. Do you know when Gen 3 kits it will be available in Spain. Also if there will be a pole mount accessory for the Gen Dishy as I need to install 2mtrs above my roof to clear obstructions.?
Does this new kit have faster download/upload speeds (internet speeds, from dish to router) than gen 2? Or is the main improvement just the router with WiFi reach?
Mainly the Wifi performance, but the antenna itself has higher gain, a higher field of view, and a bigger power supply. Don't expect faster internet speeds, but there are slightly enhancements to reliability and the antenna itself.
It doesn't adjust itself anymore for rotation and angle. It has a set 20 degree tilt, and the user has to manually rotate the dish to the correct position during the initial setup. The app has a tool that makes it very easy. Takes like 30 seconds. Removing the motors saved a lot on manufacturing costs and repairs.
Does anyone know if the 75' cable offered with the Gen 2 system is available to purchase? I feel 50' will be too short, but I know 150' will be way too long.
Yes, the Gen 2 75' cable is still available for Gen 2 systems. There is no 75' cable for Gen 3 from Starlink, but you can use a 3rd party cable if needed.
No, it can't power the Gen 2 dish on its own. Gen 2 and Gen 3 use different voltages and cable connectors. For use with Gen 2, the Gen 3 router must be treated like a 3rd party router, hooked up via the Ethernet Adapter and with the Gen 2 router in bypass mode.
So no more Starlink stickers? I just bought a Gen 2 standard kit and there were no stickers included. So it seems the stickers are no longer in the Starlink kits being shipped now.
Yes it is compatible, but you have to set it up like a 3rd party router with Gen 2, using the Ethernet adapter and bypass mode on the Gen 2 router. It cannot replace the Gen 2 router in terms of powering the Gen 2 dish. I have a review of the Gen 3 router where I show how it works with a Gen 2 system: www.starlinkhardware.com/starlink-gen-3-router-review/
i just did my unboxing yesterday and i am very disappointed in the packaging. i mean, just look at it 00:09. gen 2s was very safe. you could just wrap the box with watertight wrappings and tie it up with ducttapes and it becomes a backpack for carrying. gen3s is pretty much just a laptop box.
The Gen 3 packaging, with the tear off opening design, doesn't make it suitable for re-use without a lot of tape and effort. I'm surprised they haven't released a Gen 3 case or backpack yet, honestly. I think we will see a Gen 3 carry case in the future, though.
You will have to change your service address and also contact Starlink to update your shipping address. You might be able to update shipping if it hasn’t processed.
i have a question if someone can please answer it if i bought a starlink divce from the U.S but i haven't used it or subscribe to it can i take it and use it in Germany ? and dose it come with a subscription plan ? and if it come with a subscription plan can i take it and use it in Germany without any problems???
Depends on where you buy it from. If you purchase it in the US from a private party or an authorized retailer, like Best Buy, it will come without a subscription. You can then activate it anywhere you want that has service. If you buy directly from Starlink, it comes activated with a US-based plan, so you would need Global Roam to use it in Germany. You can cancel and transfer the equipment to a new account in Germany if you wish, but you have to wait a minimum of 90 days before Starlink allows you to do that transfer.
Yes, the router has bypass mode. The router is the POE injector for the dish, so you can't completely remove it from the system. But in bypass mode, Wifi and routing functions are disabled, allowing you to use a 3rd party router.
tho i dont plan to use starlink just yet i might have to go and secure a gen 2 kit because this is just a shity idea. Gen 2 is highly mountable and beams itself to a strong connection this is complete shit and cost effective for starlink
I have Starlink - Gen 2 - and have been satisfied with the antenna (annoyed at the proprietary connectors and lack of a built-in ethernet port on the old-tech router, though). The motors are what makes installation so simple. The kickstand approach certainly makes this a "pay the same, get less" proposition. Good for SpaceX, not so much for the customer. Of course, customer satisfaction and concern for the customer's experience is way, way low on the list of SpaceX's priorities. For cryin' out loud, they don't even have phone-based tech support! Not to mention the variable price based on where you live approach to bleeding the customer. If you have no other decent internet access options, Starlink is definitely the best option available. Sad but true.

Amazon
I think that the ones on Amazon are just for the older versions

That's the $1M question. Hopefully those electrically inclined will chime in with a solution.
A 48v LiFePO4 system would still fluctuate too much in voltage to be stable enough to run the dish or router.

Learned a lot from this video; thanks.
Does all those cables and boxes stay connected to the panel even if you put it up on a roof?
Can i use my own router system? just bought new Decos, and am moving and getting starlink.
Thank you for this video. Do you have the dimensions and weight for the Starlink Gen 3 kit shipping box/package?
What kind of search protector do you recommend with this?

Thanks for explaining how to unplug the data/power cable I was wondering about that at 6:31
The passive latch design seems to be a source of confusion, I know it was for me when I first looked at the connectors.
@@StarlinkHardwareDo you know if you are allowed to take this unboxed with you in your big suitcase on the plane?

@@StarlinkHardware where can I find a mount in which I take the kickstand off of GEN 3 to make it permanent mount? I can’t find one anywhere.
What a bout the 4 plastic things in the corner of the box?
Can this router still run the dish with PoE if I were to buy the router on its own and run a cable up to my gen 2 dish?
No, it can't power the Gen 2 dish on its own. Gen 2 and Gen 3 use different voltages and cable connectors. For use with Gen 2, the Gen 3 router must be treated like a 3rd party router, hooked up via the Ethernet Adapter and with the Gen 2 router in bypass mode.
@@StarlinkHardware well, shoot. I guess I’m buying the whole package. Didn’t want to have to mount another dish. 😭
So no more Starlink stickers?
I just bought a Gen 2 standard kit and there were no stickers included. So it seems the stickers are no longer in the Starlink kits being shipped now.
I guess not! I did recently unbox the Flat High Performance dish, and that one had stickers.
I had no idea people paid any attention to those. I have thrown away dozens & dozens of them
@@robazonautube Do you have any to sell?
Ha! No, but if you send me a self addressed stamped envelope I will send you the next one I encounter.@@mad-al
Does the new router offer more control on users in my network?
No not really. No Starlink router has advanced user/device settings. Need a 3rd party router to have those kinds of features.
so will the gen 3 router be compatible to the gen 2 starlink dish? sorry got confused.

I would like the Roam plan but would like to split time with it at my house then out camping off and on for 6 months. Is that even doable?
All you do is take your dish/antenna, router and hardware with you and hook it up to your RV. With the roam plan you’re good to go when on the road.
Hey when i was ordering my starlink kit i placed a wrong city
Can i use in my actual city?
You will have to change your service address and also contact Starlink to update your shipping address. You might be able to update shipping if it hasn’t processed.
@@StarlinkHardware how can i change my service adress?
When do you think StarLink will have a FACTORY 12VOLT system...?
At this point, I think the chance is pretty slim. Maybe they will finally do it with the Mini version coming out sometime this year.
