This product is changing lives. The ability to go on the road and connect for work or connect with family while in remote locations is a game changer. Easy set up... follow the directions. It's idiot proof. All you need is open sky. Those that complain can't seem to understand this concept... direct satellite exposure needed. It's not that comllicated.

I’ve been using the Starlink Mini Kit AC Dual Band Wi-Fi System for a few weeks now, and I’m thoroughly impressed. Setup was quick and painless — the instructions were clear, and everything connected smoothly. Within minutes, I had strong, stable internet in an area where I previously struggled to get a signal.
The dual-band AC Wi-Fi provides excellent coverage and speed. Streaming, video calls, and downloads are all seamless, even with multiple devices connected. The design is sleek and compact — it blends easily into any space without being an eyesore.
What really stands out is how well it works in remote or rural areas. If you’ve been frustrated with unreliable service or dead zones, this is a total game-changer. I’m finally getting consistent, fast internet in places where it was previously impossible.
Highly recommend for anyone looking for a dependable and easy-to-use Wi-Fi system — especially if you’re already using Starlink satellite internet or need a smart upgrade for your home setup!

Excellent Internet Option, Not PoE Powered

The Starlink Mini system has so far proven itself to be a fast and reliable Internet option, being able to work almost anywhere there is a clear view of the northern sky. The Mini model is fairly compact and easy to set up.
Cons: The included power cable is fairly long but somewhat flimsy, and I'm not sure I would rely on it for a permanent installation.
The Mini is not capable of being powered over Ethernet on its own like some of the other models, but this can be worked around with some additional third-party hardware.
I would recommend looking into an PoE++ Injector and outdoor Splitter to be able to run power and network over a single ruggedized ethernet cable. (I've seen the power usage level about 30W, but it pulls more when its melting snow off the receiver and it's technically rated at 60W, so basic PoE or PoE+ devices won't cut it. You'd normally need at least 802.3bt PoE++ injector/switch and splitter, but I did find one PoE injector/splitter set that uses its own proprietary method that seems to work and was quite inexpensive.
This is a very viable way to get a fast and reliable Internet connection where there may not be cell coverage or any landline ISPs available.

Great product for our RV travels! Bought it at Best while on a trip, and began using same day. We ordered online a day ahead and picked it up as we traveled through La Quinta. It got great connection everywhere we went in the Southwest, never failed. Fast speeds too.

This is a good little unit other than the extra monthly cost but $50 isn't so bad. I take it camping with me and so far unless I am in thick trees it works quite well. Especially for having cell service. This is probably dependent on location as we seem to have good Starlink here in Oregon. I think users are going to have different experiences based on their location. For me it was worth the risk to try and it is working. Its roughly the size of a note pad and easy to transport. I probably need to look at amazon for a case to store it when not in use.

In my opinion it works better than advertised. I have the roaming package as I have it in my camper. Works great I various locations in AZ and CA. Much better than spectrum. And I just have the Starlink Mini.

Let me start out by saying, this is my second Starlink product. I used the original as home internet from 2020 (initial beta tester) until late 2023 when we got fiber to the home.
We bought this for travel as we go to remote places with no cell towers and I own a small business. This is easy to set up and get up and running. It fits in a small laptop carrying case for protection when not in use. Speeds vary and have gotten up to 300MBs. I do suggest if you use it sparingly to boot it up and put outside monthly for updates and before you go on the road. It will save you a lot of hassle.

I took the Starlight Mini with me on my fishing trip to Yakutat, Alaska. I was able to use it to not only connect ro the internet to stay in communication with family, i was able to stream movies without lag. The long power cord made it easy to position it to avoid line of sight blockage. I did purchase a DC power connector as well. Easy to trasport in a backpack. I would recommend this to any outdoor adventurist that needs to stay in contact with the rest of the world.

Starlink Mini for travel

After installing one of the larger units for my boss at his hunting camp. I was surprised as to the ease and compactness of the mini. I have used it while traveling for work and the speed and ease of use is great. I can have it up in minutes at a remote location or I can mount it to my truck and have internet as I travel. I recommend purchasing several different mounts as once you try it you will take it everywhere.
Even mounting it flat to use on my truck while traveling provides great connectivity. I will note it does not have the speed of the larger unit, but if fulfils our needs.

Small and portable. It has built in WiFi and there is an AC adapter included. You will need to purchase a DC adapter if you need one. Stores are pretty limited on stock units and accessories. I needed one for my work truck in a rush and picked up the only one the store had. I was lucky to get it, but if you have time to wait it may be better to get what you want off of Starlink’s site where you can customize your order.

I live pretty remote with no available internet providers. The starlink worked beyond my expectations. Its the same as my internet in the city. Super easy to setup and start using. You do need a clear view of the sky so alot of trees can slow it down. Its alot of money for unlimited plan but theres no issues so in my mind its worth it.

Could not be easier to set up. plug it in open the app and it tells you what to do. Next thing you know you are getting >100mb/sec from space. Works great sitting in the front window of my sprinter van to have internet driving down the road which is fantastic. If you go to remote locations having internet for contacting people is incredible for safety reasons.

Purchased the Starlink Mini at Best Buy and couldn’t be happier! Setup was a breeze with the app, and the compact design is perfect for camping and RV trips. I get 75-200 Mbps download speeds in remote areas, ideal for streaming and work. The durable, weather-resistant dish and flexible power options (AC/DC/USB-C) make it a traveler’s dream. Best Buy’s pickup was quick, and the price was fair. Highly recommend for reliable, portable internet!

A fantastic purchase! Solves the problem of no internet or communication on those remote camping trips, or when everyone is piling on to the community wi-fi. Super easy setup, blazing speed, and dedicated service for you alone. The service package is inexpensive, and can be turned on or off as you need it so you are not paying all the time. Highly recommend!

Installed this STARLINK Mini Kit in my Tesla Model Y and couldn't be happier. The system delivers impressive speeds - I consistently get around 110 Mbps download and 10 Mbps upload, which is fantastic for in-car use. Setup was straightforward, and the white design matches perfectly with Tesla's interior.
The signal remains strong and stable whether I'm streaming music or using navigation. The compact size is ideal for in-car use. A big plus is its versatility - you can power it using either the car's power or a powerbank for extra flexibility.
Pros:
Excellent signal strength (110Mbps down/10Mbps up)
Easy installation
Sleek design
Stable connection
Perfect for Tesla vehicles
Powerbank compatible for flexible use

This has changed the way we camp, having connectivity anywhere is so useful, especially when something breaks and you need to know how to fix it when out and about.
I was worried about the speed and latency of Satellite internet but its very fast and usuable

I can't say enough about how much I like this little thing. Starlink mini is perfect for me and what I use it for which is camping/exploring. I currently go to college, and I was limited as to how long I could go camping for because I need to do schoolwork...but not anymore. I've used Starlink mini in thick woods with only a small piece of clear sky and had no connectivity issues. If you want to get away but still be connected when you have to be, then buy this. You won't regret it.
