I need guidance on setting up a PARTUCLUAR mesh system with Starlink

Andrew

Hi there, I am needing to set up a creative mesh system with my Starlink system and I need help. First off, I have tinnitus, and I'm very sensitive to Wifi signals. Because of this I need to have my pc desktop internet on a Cat 6 because I work from home and I'm on the pc alot during the day. I was hoping to be able to set up a mesh system with a kill switch so my family can use the television in the evening, but I can be wifi free during the day. I tried using the TP Link Powerline ethernet adapter, but it wouldn't work on my house's outlets for some reason. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can accomplish this? Cheers!

Apologies for the delay in responding. Is this a Gen 3 Standard system? Here is what I would recommend:

Get a router without WiFi built in. Something like this: https://store.ui.com/us/en/category/all-cloud-gateways/products/ucg-ultra
After setting up the new router, which is plugged into the Ethernet on the Starlink router, turn on bypass mode on the Starlink router to disable the WiFi.
Wire up your PC to one of the Ethernet ports on the 3rd party Ubiquiti router.
Purchase one of the Ubiquiti WiFi access points like this one: https://store.ui.com/us/en/category/all-wifi/products/u6-mesh
You'll have to run a cable from the Ubiquiti router to the WiFi AP. You can place the AP by your TV, or wherever you want WiFi.

After the initial WiFi setup, you'll be able to unplug the AP when you don't want WiFi. In the evening, when you need WiFi for the TV, just plug the AP back in.
