Just plugged in my StarLink... The phone app said it wasn't the best location, but I planted it anyways..
Whereas my ATT UVerse was around 14-16Mbps, I am seeing 72Mbps with StarLink.. So, right off the bat, I am a happy camper..
But I am seeing some downsides here...
For one, strictly aesthetically speaking, I am seeing no indicator lights on the StarLink router.. There are the concentric circles on the StarLink router and it looks like there are 3 LEDs that LOOK like they should be lit.. But they are dark..
But a bigger issue is the lack of an Ethernet port... I am an old-school PC'er and no self-respecting PC geek would rely on a WiFi connection.. Hard-wire is faster, safer and more reliable...
Having said that, I must acknowledge the strides of WiFi technology in the last couple decades... Will I sacrifice speed if I get the Ethernet Adapter?? I read that one must disable all WiFi capabilities on the StarLink router if you hook in an Ethernet port? Is this true?? Which means I would have to route all devices thru my dumb hub which will likely degrade my speeds for those other devices..
So, I am in a bit o' quandary and was hoping for some guidance from the community..
Thanx in advance for any hints, tips and/or suggestions..
