Starlink is changing the way we access the internet—especially in remote areas with poor connectivity. Whether you’re in the desert, on a construction site, or managing a mobile team, Starlink devices provide fast, reliable internet using satellites in space.
But how does it work? Here’s a simple breakdown:
📡 How Starlink Devices Work – Step by Step:
1. Satellite Dish (Dishy)
The main Starlink device is a satellite dish, often called “Dishy.” It automatically adjusts itself to connect with Starlink satellites above the Earth.
2. Wi-Fi Router
The dish connects to a Wi-Fi router (included in the kit), which gives you wireless internet inside your home, office, or mobile site.
3. Sky View Required
For the best performance, the dish needs a clear view of the sky. It works best in open areas, away from trees or buildings.
4. Internet via Satellites
When you turn it on, the dish talks to the satellites, which send your internet requests to data centers and back. This all happens in milliseconds—fast enough for video calls, streaming, and gaming.
