This model does not show as an option in the fields above.  I cannot get this range extender to connect to Starlink (it's version 2, square dish and no ethernet port).  This range extender has been in use with a Tek Savvy modem without issues for several years. 

 

Have tried connecting via Tether app on android, but its says "connected without internet".  Tried the internet but could not find troubleshooting information.  Tried resetting the unit several times, tried the WPS button, etc.  Cannot get range extender to talk to Starlink via laptop or android.  Getting conflicting information that says I must get ethernet adaptor port from Starlink or that I don't need it.  Please provide confirmation and a link to detailed instructions as to how to connect.  Thanks in advance!

Hi@DLCSalmon,

Welcome to our community.

Please confirm that you have reset the extender correctly:With the power on, use a pin to press the button for 1 second to reset the extender.

 

When you can see TP-Link_Extender on the Wi-Fi list, that means you have reset it successfully. Then please configure the extender referring to the video:
