🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞
 
I was looking at the suppliers at Wally World and some don’t offer a return at all. That’s a little scary

yep

I'd stay clear of them

to be safe might autta only order where it says walmart is the supplier & shipper

hope they get this under control🤞🤞🤞

really like trying to source stuff other than Amazon.

starlink all set

gonna have to just run the ethernet line through the rear window. it's all but impossible to release & reattach with this mount.

magnet mounted
wonder how much speed it's going to be able to handle??????

Well, at least you can say you got a two-for-one. Starlink users typically experience download speeds between 25 and 220 Mbps, with a majority of users experiencing speeds over 100 Mbps. Upload speeds are typically between 5 and 20. Enjoy!

Check this out... Get the Ethernet passthrough and you can power over Ethernet.


Here's another interesting solution:

Consider using a mount and some sea suckers. Suction it to the top of your box.

🤣😂🤣😂🤣

used some leftover pistol magnets i had. thought they'd be strong enough. looks like I'll probably upgrade to some 100lb magnets.

Oh, yeah... Don't come to me for affordable solutions. 🤣
wish i had your chedder

I'd have a platinum pavement princess, then I'd make what i have a go anywhere beast. 40"s, dual stick front dig transfer case, dual rear emergency brakes, turn on a pivot, roll cage, go anywhere absolute beast
🤣😂🤣😂🤣

fun to think about anyway
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
 
I'm good with the mount i have.

just need a good way to route the ethernet line to the wireless modem, that will be plugged in at the back seat as outlet, but i also want an easy disconnect, because i won't have the starlink up & running all the time.

I think the window pass through I shared may be the best option for you.

I'm going to get a flat network cable for through the window. then use a waterproof coupler to attach to the shortest Starlink cable i can order. modem will sit, probably attached to the center rear headrest. power cord from the modem to the rear ac outlet. keeps it all portable & easy peasy setup & removal.

all fixed
