Starlink Installation Service Request Received: Wheatfield Township, MI
Our Starlink installation subject matter experts (SMEs) received a service request from a customer in Wheatfield Township, MI, for a residential Starlink setup.
Our team conducted an Initial Offsite Assessment. This involved analyzing the residential home property data through satellite images, requesting property images from the customer, analyzing the current setup and possible cable path, and other customer requirements.
Result of Initial Offsite Assessment:
- Home size: 4,393 sqft, two-story single-family home
- Type of Roof: Shingle
- Starlink Model: Starlink Standard kit
- Mount: Pivot mount
- The client’s home already has current ISP and wanted to be replaced with Starlink High-Performance.
- DirecTV and another satellite dish installed on the roof, and there is an available cable route where the Starlink High Performance cable (25 meters) can be piggybacked. As per client, this route will be sufficient to reach the client’s home office.
- Assessment of Installation Points:
- The initial installation point was planned for the side of the house with two existing satellite dishes. However, to avoid frequency interference and obstructions, we decided to move the installation to the other side of the rooftop, adjacent to the existing satellite dishes.
- The current installation point is located right next to the home office, facing south with no obstructions. This setup allows the cable to pass directly through the attic and into the home office.
- Additional Materials / equipment:
- 1 additional Gen3 WiFi mesh router
- Pivot mount
- Masonry cable routing kit
We assisted the customer in ordering the other materials and equipment; once the delivery was confirmed, we scheduled the service request with our Starlink installation pros in Wheatfield Township, MI.
Starlink Installation in Wheatfield Township, MI
The SOW (scope of work):
- Install a Starlink standard kit using pivot mount
- Cable routing to pass through the attic (home office at 2nd floor and living room at the 1st floor). Secure the installation by sealing the openings with quick-dry sealant.
- Activate & set up the two Starlink Gen 3 WiFi mesh routers
- Orient the customer on how to use the Starlink App
- Test and document the installations with photos
Our Starlink installation pros arrived on schedule and started by performing the Starlink Obstructions Test using the Starlink App. This essential test helps determine the optimal dish location to ensure a strong and reliable connection to the Starlink satellite network.
The Obstructions Test resulted in a rating of “Good experience,” meaning that the location is good for smooth streaming, browsing, video calls, and gaming. This confirmed that the selected location would ensure the best connectivity and performance for the Starlink satellite network. Therefore, based on these results, our team installed the Starlink dish. We used a pivot mount and securely attached the dish to the roof eaves, ensuring proper alignment and stability for uninterrupted service even in extreme weather conditions.
The installation team of Starlink utilized a masonry cable routing kit to route the Starlink proprietary cable from the outdoor dish into the indoor Gen 3 WiFi Mesh Routers in the locations approved by the customer (home office on 2nd floor and living room on the 1st floor).
Once the cable was connected, the team activated the Starlink system. It configured the Gen 3 WiFi Mesh Router using the Starlink app with the Customer’s preferred network name (SSID) and password. We orient the customer on using the Starlink app, like accessing their SSID, password reset, running a speed test, resetting/refreshing the Starlink network, and other customer inquiries.
Next, our team conducted the Starlink Alignment Test to verify the dish was accurately positioned for optimal satellite connectivity. This process included assessing the dish’s orientation and placement to guarantee a clear sky view, ensuring maximum signal strength and performance.
Lastly, the team performed the basic and advanced Starlink Speed Tests 20 minutes after installation to assess the internet connection quality.
A basic speed test provides a general overview of the internet speed available to the user, while an advanced test offers a detailed breakdown, making it easier to diagnose whether performance issues are due to the local network (router or devices) or the satellite connection. In most cases, Starlink may take up to 12 hours to synchronize fully.
