SpaceX has recently introduced a new budget-friendly accessory to enhance Wi-Fi coverage in smaller homes or areas with dead zones. The Starlink Router Mini, priced at $40 USD, is now available exclusively in the United States through the official Starlink Shop.
This compact router is designed to complement your existing Starlink setup, offering support for dual-band Wi-Fi (2.4GHz and 5GHz) along with features like MU-MIMO, WPA2 security, and compatibility with Starlink Mesh networks. While it is recommended for use with three mesh nodes or fewer, the Router Mini provides coverage for up to 1,200 square feet, making it an ideal solution for apartments, small homes, or rooms with weak signals.
Compatible with Starlink Mini, Gen 2, and Gen 3 routers, the Router Mini is not compatible with Gen 1 routers or third-party mesh systems. Its operating temperature range of -22°F to 122°F (-30°C to 50°C) ensures its suitability for a variety of environments.
If the Router Mini is not currently available in your region, it may not be listed in your Starlink Shop. Keep an eye out for updates on availability in your area.
Overall, the Starlink Router Mini offers a cost-effective solution for improving Wi-Fi coverage in smaller spaces, providing essential features and compatibility with a range of Starlink routers. Its compact design and affordability make it a practical choice for those looking to enhance their home network setup.
