Which one? X10 is not a unique Netgear model number. Many devices come with the AC/AX/X tag, but it is essentially a label that Netgear, and others, attach to hardware to describe wifi speeds.
Look at the label on the device for the Model Number. And, if there is one, include the "V" bit to show the hardware version. If there is no V number, then you have V1.
Most X19 kit is now pretty old an approaching the "EOS" stage.
I plug my brand new ethernet cables into the router from my starlink router and connect to my pc, it allows me to go through the set up process but still doesn't connect
What happens when you try to connect? Any messages?
How are you trying to set it up? Nighthawk App? Web browser and the graphical user interface (GUI)?
You have to be careful with adding one router to another router.
Starlink also has special requirements.
