Hello,

With Starlink there are a lot of variables that could cause issues. Could you answer these questions:

• Which generation of Starlink are you using (Gen 1 with the round dish or Gen 2 with the square dish)?

• How are you connecting the dish to the RUT955? Could you provide a drawn diagram?

• Does the WAN interface receive an IP address from the Starlink? If it does, does the address start with 192.168.xxx.xxx or 100.xxx.xxx.xxx?

• Does the dish receive power?

Best regards,

Hello Thanks for you help.

To answer your questions:

• I have Gen 2 / Square Dish
• Diagram: Setup matches that picture: https://www.antennadirect.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Starlink-ethernet-adapter.png
  Where I have the cable connected to the wan port on the RUT955
• Yes I do get an 192.168.xxx.xxx IP
• Yes dish has power

The additonal starlink product as shown on the diagram: Starlink

Additional Infos:
Connecting the RUT955 to the Starlink Router via Wifi does work without problems. But the prefered way would be via the cable to get rid of the the starlink router later und power by POE Injector.

Yes I do get an 192.168.xxx.xxx IP

This is most likely the issue. This is an internal IP address provided by the “dishy”. If I remember correctly it is 192.168.100.xxx. This means that the IP address from the dish is most likely being assigned to the Starlink router rather than the RUT955, as Starlink can only provide one address.
Could you try only connecting the RUT955 with the Starlink router being completely unplugged and checking if it received internet connectivity then?

Best regards,
