Starlink - Gen 1 Router

I have the original router I could sell you. Or, I use my OG dishy with a TP-Link ER605 with a dsl failover. Works like a charm. Any router should work.

The Gen 3 router is also PoE just like the OG one was and runs at the same voltage - So you could use that. Or any other router will do just fine.

The mini router also works well as a mesh extender with the standard Starlink . I have two setup in my house to share WiFi throughout the two story house I live in.

wifi 6 or 5 give no eny real difference for 90% of users Starlink basic router have great wifi QOS system to manage local users load on internet and if smaller router have it too -- its much better for "feel good internet experience" vs 99% of soho routers.

90% users will not feel any difference SL QOS with fq\_codel gives much more "betterness" over bigger wifi #

My research for a similar application led me to the FritzBox 6860 for 5G, but that only makes sense if 5G is available and you need a range extender/mesh. For 80m2 a hotspot is probably sufficient and you could get away with something like the FritzBox 6820 for around 150€. I ended up getting Starlink when they were offering the hardware for free. It’s a bit overkill, but it’s worth having if your place has frequent service interruptions.

While I’m a Starlink fan, their routers are not great. Get a good mesh setup and bypass the Starlink routers.

Honestly starlink is the best way currently. It’s at the forefront of Wi-Fi technological development and will only get better. It will be some time before any other company get remotely near the standard.
