Orbi RBK 750 Static Route to Modem UI, Starlink
I connected an RBK750 router to my Starlink dish directly, which means I replaced the Starlink router. The Starlink dish has an internal IP address 192.168.100.1 with statistical data that I want to...
Yes, it is a workable solution. The main problem is that any time the Starlink dish is reset or unplugged from power, the IP address changes. All that is needed to fix this is to login to your Orbi router then find and replace the old IP address with the current one. Here's a step by step method to do that works perfectly using my Orbi RBR50:
orbilogin > Advanced tab > ADVANCED Home > Internet Port (box in right panel) > IP Address (copy it) > Advanced Setup > Static Routes > Destination box (enter 192.168.100.0) > Gateway box (enter copied IP Address from Internet Port box in earlier step) > Click Save and you're done.

For sure this works, but it is not really comfortable to do it every time the public IP changes.
I solved it by installing an ethernet only router (Ubiquiti) between the Starlink modem and the RBR750. The RBR750 is working in AP mode now.
Agreed, this is not a good solution.
