Re: netgear X4 , starlink

X4 doesn't mean much here in the forums. 

What NG product are you referring too? Router, extender? 

 

Contact the mfr of starlink for help and informatino regarding there product.

Re: netgear X4 , starlink

did you try installing it using the installation assistant? 

the EX7300 is an extender only. not a router. 

so you need to make sure your starlink router is running (and usable), then set it up using the installation assistant.

Re: netgear X4 , starlink

There is no guarantee the extender will work with Starlink. It's not even certified for it. Next time do a bit of research if you want compatible Starlink devices.

What is the model of this Starlink device?

 

Too many people get the impression that Netgear routers lack WPS. In reality, they just haven't found it, partly because this feature isn't always easy to find.

 

Perhaps Starlink is equally obscure.
