Orbi RBK 750 Static Route to Modem UI, Starlink
I connected an RBK750 router to my Starlink dish directly, which means I replaced the Starlink router. The Starlink dish has an internal IP address 192.168.100.1 with statistical data that I want to...

Ask your ISP if there modem/router is required for use wtih there hardware. Some ISP may require there HW to be used.

The ISP is Starlink and the modem is their dish. I already skipped the Starlink router and connected the RBK750 directly. Works all fine. I only want to have a static route from my network to the modem's statistic page.
I found out that it works when I use the to public IP address assigned by the ISP as Gateway IP address instead of the internal router address 10.0.0.1.
On other routers, I would try 0.0.0.0 as the gateway, but the RBK750 refuses to use this address ("invalid gateway address").

I am also trying to hook up my Orbi to Starlink to access the stats on the app. Where do I find the public IP address assigned by Starlink to use as the Gateway IP address? Is it Basic/Internet/Internet IP address/Gateway IP Address ?

You use the one listed in Basic/Internet/Internet IP Address/IP Address. Do not use the one listed in the Gateway IP Address field as that one will not work.

Yes, it is a workable solution. The main problem is that any time the Starlink dish is reset or unplugged from power, the IP address changes. All that is needed to fix this is to login to your Orbi router then find and replace the old IP address with the current one. Here's a step by step method to do that works perfectly using my Orbi RBR50:
orbilogin > Advanced tab > ADVANCED Home > Internet Port (box in right panel) > IP Address (copy it) > Advanced Setup > Static Routes > Destination box (enter 192.168.100.0) > Gateway box (enter copied IP Address from Internet Port box in earlier step) > Click Save and you're done.

Thanks for posting this. Hope this is helpful for StartLink users.

I'd ask the ISP what there IP address of the modem is. Most cable modems use 192.168.100.1 which passes thru most routers to connected PCs. Something to ask your ISP about.

The modem IP address is indeed 192.168.100.1, but it doesn't pass thru the RBK750 router. Still looking for a reliable solution to add a static route for this. Seems to be a lacking feature of an otherwise great product.

I should. My CM1200 uses same addresss and I get thru my 850....
What browser are you using?
Is there a model# of this mome or is that something specific to this ISP?
