    Do people just use the Starlink router without their own firewall behind it?

    Never in my life have I ever used the AP/switch function of the supplied router. That fucking thing can live outside my network, I don’t trust an ISP to wipe their ass after shitting, let alone keep a router updated.

          When I heard about that I thought it was pretty condescending.

          Like give me an Ethernet port so I can plug my shit into it without giving you more money for something that really should be included.

          That’s like not putting door handles on a car.

            I was pretty surprised and pissed off when it showed up and I couldn’t find a way to plug in a cable.

            On the other hand, it’s the best internet I’ve had out in the ass end of nowhere.
