Understanding Intermittent Connectivity

It is important to distinguish between a hardware failure and temporary network conditions. Starlink satellites move rapidly across the sky, which can occasionally cause brief disruptions. Common intermittent issues include:

  • Sporadic drops in connectivity that resolve automatically.
  • Fluctuating internet speeds during peak usage times or satellite handovers.
  • Very brief outages lasting only a few seconds.

If your connection is experiencing these specific symptoms and then stabilises, it may be a natural result of the orbital network rather than a fault requiring immediate intervention. However, if issues persist beyond normal fluctuation patterns, contact support using the numbers listed above.

Warranty and Hardware Guidelines

To ensure your equipment remains covered under warranty and functions correctly, please adhere to the following hardware guidelines:

  • Official Cables Only: Always use cables supplied by Starlink or officially authorised retailers. Using unofficial cabling can lead to compatibility problems that affect performance.
  • No Third-Party Adapters: Warranty coverage is voided if you utilise third-party equipment, such as Ethernet adapters or extension devices not approved by Starlink. These modifications can introduce signal interference and are not supported under the standard warranty terms.

Next Steps

If you have followed the steps above and your connectivity issues continue, please contact support immediately to prevent further disruption.

  • Australia: Call +61 1800 953 804 (24/7)
  • US Residential Offline: Call 1-866-606-5103
  • Canada Residential Offline: Call 1-888-864-1321
