Nighthawk AX6 6-Stream AX5400 and Starlink

I am trying to replace an original Starlink router with a Nighthawk AX5400 router. I have the original Starlink router with Ethernet and no bridging. I thought I could just replace the Starlink box ...

This user go his NG router connected to the ISPs equipment using a non managed switch:

I would review this and give it a try.

That article mentions the newer router that has bypass and uses the Ethernet adapter. I have the earlier Starlink router.

  Something you can still try. Or make contact with the ISP so they can help you out. Ask about a newer version of there router system.

    Thanks. I don’t want to use the Starlink router though is the point (Starlink is the ISP if you will in this case.).
