MK63 — Nighthawk Mesh WiFi 6 System

[Brendajackson12]

I recently got my Starlink dish set up.  Would like to use my NightHawk extenders with it.  I’m a 70 year old grandma who is at wits end trying to get it to work.  For someone my age I’m pretty tech savvy but not enough for this !  Does anyone have a step by step method of getting this linked or should I make bird boxes out of the mesh boxes.  Thanks.

Might review the installation Guide:

Some ISPs have there own router and putting another online with the MK system would add another that would be not recommended. However if the ISP has a router and wifi on there system, you could turn OFF the wifi radios on there system and configure the MK system for AP mode:

Hi,

I feel your pain.  I am still trying to get my Starlink and all my devices connected.

Here is a link of step by step how to configure the Starlink to recognize the ethernet adapter.  (did you purchase an ethernet adapter from Starlinkl?)

See if this works.

Others posted that putting a non managed Gb LAN switch in between the starlink ethernet adapter and there MESH router unit solved problems as well.
