what is it you are thinking o of doing? I just had my round starlink replaced, so will have two rectangular ones for at least a short while (I will probably switch one of them to the roaming/best effort plan). I do plan to cut the cable for one and convert it to a normal plug/PoE injector, and may do it for both. I already have a Turris router running mwan3 between cablemodem and DSL. I've been meaning to add a starlink to this for a while, but the supply chain shorting has hit those circular toits hard :-) David Lang On Wed, 12 Apr 2023, Dave Taht via Starlink wrote: > What mike had offered to do was drop off 3 spare starlink terminals he > has at the start of the event.
