Starlink Mesh Nodes
Mesh networks are nothing new in home networking, but a new Starlink accessory allows customers to easily implement a mesh network without 3rd party hardware or IT knowledge. The new accessory, called Starlink Mesh Nodes, is now available for Starlink customers with the rectangular dish. Mesh networks allow you to have a single wireless network that covers your entire house.
You may be thinking, if mesh networks are nothing new, why is Starlink coming out with their own hardware? The main reason for the Starlink Mesh Nodes is the ease of installation and implementation. If you would like to use 3rd party equipment to creste your own mesh system you will need to order an 'ethernet adapter' from the Starlink Shop
We offer a wide range of mounting options including:
flat roofs, chimneys, gable ends etc.
