I see people saying they use a Starlink mesh router to run their dish in RV. I don't see where power is supplied to the mesh router, so not sure how this would work??
Hi John,The mesh routers (nodes) should power up the same way as your main Starlink router. If you look on the bottom you will have the two openings, one to fit your power cable and the other to plug in your connector from the cable on the Starlink dish (or an Ethernet adapter). Unless I’m understanding your question wrong?
Thank you for your will activate "portability" for our residential Starlink, to use the system in our RV. I am trying to determine if we can use another router in our RV, so that we just move the dish. I see people online talking about using another brand of router (since you can't buy another router from Starlink), but I don't see how you would connect the proprietary Starlink cable from the dish. I thought the Starlink mesh router was the ticket, but understand now that it is not powered. I wish we could buy another Starlink router!
Sorry, mispoke, Starlink mesh router is powered but doesn't have a connection for the cable coming from the dish. Maybe Starlink will begin to sell the main router since it apparently is not linked to the dish??
I didn't think the mesh router was powered?
