First Steps Before You Call

Check whether it is just you

If a neighbour on the same Starlink service is also down, it is an area fault rather than your equipment, and the fix is different.

Power cycle the Starlink dish & router

Unplug the Starlink dish & router at the mains, wait thirty seconds, plug it back in, then give it two to three minutes to fully re-register before testing again.

Test wired against wireless

If a device connected by cable is fine but Wi-Fi is not, the fault is the wireless side rather than the incoming line — that changes what gets fixed.

Note what the lights are doing

The light pattern on the Starlink dish & router tells a specialist a lot. Have it in front of you when you call.

Service outage in your area

Starlink dish & router restart

Working through a proper power cycle of the Starlink dish & router in the correct sequence so the connection re-registers.

Slow speeds
