A8000

I just got a A8000 router  . . . I think It's installed, but I don't  know how to check to see if it's working or if I'm spinning my wheels.  I also have a Star Link system, so do I really need this router?

    There's no such thing. The A8000 is a USB wifi adapter. You use it to connect a PC to the wifi from a router.

    Try asking Starlink what kit you need to work with its system.
