ORBI 960B MESH SYSTEM
I HAVE HAD THE ORBI 960B FOR A YEAR NOW BUT ... SINCE INSTALLATION BY A TECH THE ORBI SYSTEM TO NOT WORK DIRECTLY WITH OUR STARLINK SYSTEM. AFTER A COUPLE OF HOURS AND NETGEAR TECH SUPPORT THE TECH WAS FORCED TO PUT A SIMPLE GOOGLE ROUTER BETWEEN THEM TO MAKE IT WORK. THIS COST ME ANOTHER $140 BUCK BUT IT DOES WORK. I WOULD LIKE TO REMOVE THE GOOGLE ROUTER AND HAVE TRIED BUT NETGEAR'S ORBI DOES NOT RECOGNIZE STARLINK?? HAS ANYONE HAVE A FIX FOR THIS?
THANK YOU, RMS

SO USE OF CAPS IS NOT NEEDED. WE CAN HEAR YOU JUST FINE. NO NEED TO YELL.
Others in the community posted about putting a simple non managed 1Gb LAN switch in between the StarLink modem and the Orbi RBR unit. Also recommend using CAT6A STP cabling as well between them. https://community.netgear.com/t5/Orbi-WIFI-6-AX-AND-Wi-Fi-6E-AXE/Orbi-6e-cannot-connect-to-Starlink/m-p/2231158/highlight/true#M33998
