Am going to assist with some network setup for someone who has the new square dishy, I've not played with these before. The Ethernet dongle is present I believe (just why Elon, why....) 🤦‍♂️

 

Have done some reading up on various forums/YT vids etc, but there seems to be a lot of conflicting information or just a general lack of helpful information. 

 

If someone knows the following, that would be very helpful. 

 

1 - What is the default LAN IP range? I think this is 192.168.100.x?

 

2 - Can this range be changed in the config?

 

3 - Is there an actual Web UI, or just an app?

 

4 - Is there much customization  available in the config? DHCP reservation for example?

 

5 - If we want to use our own router, it seems like bridge mode (bypass?) can be enabled - is there anything other than having a router with DHCP enabled on WAN for this to work?

 

 

 

Thanks!

1 - If using the default router the ip range is 192.168.1.0/24. The Dishy itself is 192.168.100.1. 

 

2 - No.

 

3 - Yes, it's at http://dishy.starlink.com or http://192.168.100.1

 

4 - None, you will need your own router for anything. The only changes that can be made are Wifi SSID and Password.

 

5 - You will enable bypass mode. First purchase the Starlink ethernet adapter (the square kits don't come with ethernet). This will take a while to ship as they are on back order. When it's arrived, enable bypass, setup your router in DHCP mode, and create a static route to 192.168.100.1 so the "stats" in the app and the web UI work.
