    $26 is stiff for $5 worth of bits from ACE Hardware...Honestly, for the $600 it costs for the Gen 3, it should come with a wall mount and install kit. SpaceX is acting like they're hurting for money, and an extra $70 for a mount and $26 for install kit is robbery.

    • @StarlinkHardware

      Yes, I actually had to do this too. The grommets are easy to remove if you use a utility knife to cut the sealant first. Then they just pop out. You can replace the cable, add more sealant to at least the outside grommet before reinstalling.

    Thanks for the video! Looks pretty easy! Only problem is that houses in most countries here in Europe are made of brick or concrete and stone. Unfortunately, the kits provided are not compatible, at least from what I see. Today is day one for our Starlink set but I have yet to figure out how I route the cable to the spot in the house where I need it. Do you have experience with the longer cables available in the shop? Is there a drop in speed when a longer cable is used? Thanks 🙏🏽

    For safety, you should have a lightning arrestor with grounding per NEC code. The ground connection before entry to the house is a requirement.

    • @StarlinkHardware
      @StarlinkHardware  10 місяців тому +1

      I did with my Gen 1, since it had Standard RJ45 connectors. Using a lightening arrestor with the Gen 2 cable and proprietary connectors is not possible without serious modification to the cable, which also voids the warranty on the cable, and potentially the dish itself. I agree any antenna on your roof should be grounded, but with Starlink, it's simply not practical, and therefore extremely rare for installs to be properly done to code.

      To hold the grommet into the wall and prevent it from coming out with cable movement, and also as an air seal. You're right, exterior is where the water prevention happens, the inside seal is more about air and to "glue" the grommet to the wall.

    • @StarlinkHardware
      @StarlinkHardware  2 місяці тому

      Technically, yes. Starlink says the system by itself complies with all grounding requirements. What that doesn't account for is when you mount the dish to your roof, there is additional codes to follow, including grounding the mast and data cable from the dish. Very few people do because most are DIY installs. Even the professional installers are not grounding it. I did on my Gen 1 round dish back in the day. Haven't grounded any version since. The 2nd generation dish was virtually impossible to properly ground without modifying the cable, and that voids the warranty, so I gave up on the idea.

      That's the wrong end of the cable. You need to start with the dish side connector which is straight, and route it from inside to outside up to the dish.

      I looked at both before even watching this video and still it will require much larger hole than any other installation. This is flow in the design instead of ripping people off the cable should been crimped after installation.

      It’s a cheap and versatile material, and was originally used here as a building material because of how plentiful it was when Europeans first settled. Throughout any area of the world, people build their houses out of the natural resources available. No different here in the US in that regard. We have a lot of wood, so we make use of it.
