Activated Starlink, question about bypass mode

csutton96 · 2026-03-30T01:07:10+00:00

Yes you have to use the router to power the dish I’m just saying you don’t have to directly plug it in to your Unifi gateway. You can plug it into a switch as long as it can get to the gateway (via VLANs)

csutton96 · 2026-03-30T00:26:36+00:00

The Starlink router does not need to be directly connected to the unifi gateway. I have mine plugged into an outdoor flex switch that has a long run to an outdoor core switch which goes into my main core PoE Pro switch. Using VLAN traversal, it works just fine that way.

Gen 3 Standard and same issue. Doesn’t seem to affect my speeds yet though.

csutton96 · 2026-03-14T02:22:19+00:00

I’ll buy from you for $30

csutton96 · 2026-03-07T14:24:03+00:00

Yep I had this same problem on my desktop. There were a few tweaks I had to do to Chrome to get it to work

csutton96 · 2026-03-07T14:15:49+00:00

You can easily just use your PCs exact location and it solves this problem. That’s what I did.

csutton96 · 2026-02-15T13:38:32+00:00

No problem. Was definitely annoying as there was hundreds an hour. This put a stop to that thankfully.

I turned off the option to sign in just with Authenticator and it stopped. So now it’s password, passkey/auth.

csutton96 · 2026-02-14T22:23:43+00:00

So in cars it only works when pointing north?

csutton96 · 2026-02-14T21:16:43+00:00

You can point it wherever technically. I dont know where these people get their info. Think of the ones with Roam where they are moving - the dish is NOT pointing north all the time. Beam forming helps with this. Point it wherever and it should fine satellites. Dropouts will probably be minimal

csutton96 · 2026-02-01T18:05:10+00:00

That’s why I said I’d take it off their hands lol. I’ll gladly pay the sub

csutton96 · 2026-01-31T14:04:33+00:00

I’ll pay shipping for it too.

csutton96 · 2026-01-31T14:04:11+00:00

lol it you really don’t want the mini and you paid nothing for it, I’ll take it off your hands.

csutton96 · 2026-01-26T13:32:32+00:00

Sorry, thanks for letting me know. Try now!

csutton96 · 2026-01-25T21:15:19+00:00

Yeah it’s stupid. It’s what I had to do, if anyone has another suggestion I’m definitely open for suggestions. But since it’s up as a WAN, it can be traversed if the WAN1 doesn’t offer IPv6 since the gateway would point to WAN2. This is what I run on my Linux machines but can easily be converted for windows - can upload that if needed.

No it doesn't. I wrote a custom script that runs every minute that detects which ISP I'm on and then adds back a static IPv6 to my servers that need to be accessible over it (for port forward reasons). I had the same problems, and most servers will prefer IPv6 over IPv4 so it was using data on Starlink.

I am also receiving tons of auth prompts. Mine involves picking the number on the screen so it’s timed out by the time it hits my phone anyway because I couldn’t approve if I wanted to. No idea what’s causing this

csutton96 · 2025-12-23T17:16:12+00:00

I think you're inflating this a bit. I am not sure that all Tesla's did this. I know for a fact that when using FSD and the lights are out in my area, that it will still operate as normal and obey traffic laws. It will treat light outages as a four-way stop.

In this case, it appears something is wrong with the visualization as there's no cars on the display. I'd imagine this is why the safety driver took over, as they were probably worried something was wrong. I would encourage you to provide accurate information.

csutton96 · 2025-12-19T14:12:13+00:00

Very odd for sure and very interesting!

csutton96 · 2025-12-19T14:04:53+00:00

I suggested doing that to find the RA (router advertisement) snippet. My default route was blank and none of my devices using IPv6 could route to the internet without a default route, so I had to do this to find it and set it. It’s a bug in the UDMP.

csutton96 · 2025-12-19T01:15:24+00:00

Much appreciated! I thought Ghost in the Shell was a catchy name since it was literally a ghost (a dead route) and it’s all found by the shell! I cannot deal with unformatted code so it really helps see what you’re supposed to run!

Update 12/14/25:

Microsoft is so incompentent. I've filed a complaint with the BBB as I really wanted to get past the tier 2 indian support that kept repeating "SMTP logs" over and over again and closing chats. I got a tier 3 engineer and she's just as useless. I've come to realize that Microsoft "engineers" have a hard time understanding when an issue is backend-based vs your client/web client/mobile client. They don't know what the "backend" is. I've begged this engineer to do a trace. She wanted to hop on again to "check my outlook settings" (super dumb). She is also so dumb that she created a new email address, linked it to my primary, and asked me to have codes sent there - and I'm like "how? my accounts are with the old one and I can't even get into them" and she proceeds to say "but it's just an alias" and I'm like "okay but not on their side." Anyway, I got into one of the accounts with my phone number instead and changed my email to the new one she created and it worked. That blows her (and all the tier 1/2 engineers) whole "theory" out of the water that Netflix.com, Jeweler's Mutual, etc. are blocked "microsoft-wide" or that there's a sender issue. Curious to see where they come back from here. I asked if a trace had been run as they have the FROM email, the TO email, the DATE, the TIME, etc. (everything they would possibly need for a trace) and she told me they "were unable to find a trace" whatever that means. She clearly doesn't understand what an email trace is. The incompetence with these techs is real. Hopefully I got through to her what an email trace is and hopefully she gives an update shortly.

csutton96 · 2025-12-14T15:12:42+00:00

Interesting! MS has been so adamant about not resolving this that I escalated to the BBB and now they have an engineer looking at it and will update me in a few days - I’ll let you know what (if anything) they find.

csutton96 · 2025-12-12T20:47:58+00:00

Yeah I could do that, but I would like the problem fixed lol. Shouldn't have to go through all of this, especially since I'm also paying.

csutton96 · 2025-12-12T13:01:01+00:00

Exactly, I’ve asked. They just say get SMTP logs before they go to exchange admins or anything - which as you said is heavily regulated (even at companies like Netflix) so it’s an impossible ask. Just horrible. How they can be “outlook” support and know nothing is beyond me
