While Starlink has been available for a while, when I purchased it in late 2022, the upfront hardware cost was half the normal price of $1040. I purchased my kit from Noel Leeming, which was fine, but I’d recommend purchasing it directly from Starlink – see below for my reasons.
I unboxed it at home just to check, but as it turned out, the box contained everything needed to set up and connect to the internet, including a Starlink Satellite Dish (Starlink calls it ‘Dishy’), a robust stand for Dishy, and a WiFi router with power supply and cables.
Starlink ships with a 240V power cable which plugs into the Starlink router and the router in turn provides power to Dishy.
No 12V or 24V adaptors are included as the 240V plug goes, we set up our Sine Pure Inverter to provide a clean power 240V feed, so we would use this. Starlink’s clear instructions were contained on a single A3 page with large pictures.
