We got our Starlinkbox and a few associated bits and I spent yesterday making it all work!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

But wait\u2026what is that one the box? \u00a0It appear to be footprints. \u00a0Hmmm…No apparent damage.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I took the actual antenna out so you can see what\u2019s in the box. The antenna is about 12\u201d x 18\u201d, and 15? lbs. \u00a0Left bottom is the router; left top is the power supply; top right is the power cord; that big elongated circle on the bottom right was where a 50ft network cable to plug the antenna into the router was.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We put the antenna up on the slide roof. \u00a0It is a pretty clear view in all directions. \u00a0I restrained the cable hanging down some. \u00a0We got a special network cable that you can close a window on to get it into the trailer. \u00a0I had to turn the antenna around. \u00a0It is facing south here, and the Starlink orientation app said it had to be facing north.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Once inside we plugged the router and power supply into power and the network through-the-window cable adapter. \u00a0There is a convienient space on top of the valence or whatever is over the window shade. \u00a0We got a plastic rack for the router and power supply from Amazon to sit on top, shelf like.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Finally, proof it is working. \u00a0It wasn\u2019t the easiest thing I have installed for computers, but it wasn\u2019t too bad! \u00a0No dropout, glitches or spinning circles yet!<\/p>\n
