Starlink for RV (Harbor Freight Flagpole, Flagpole Buddy, Husky Tote, and More) Storage and Set Up

[@kirkm6643]

Just got my Starlink and was looking for ideas on how to mount the router and where to put the dish. This video is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!!

[@TheJripley1720]

Thank you for the tips. Ordered everything you mentioned to fit with the flagpole that I purchased earlier.

[@natewanders]

Great. You should be in business!!

[@BootsIsHere]

Nate, your the man!! I’ve literally watched a dozen KZbin vids on this and you, by far, made a vid that is full of all the important points compacted in half the time others have (& was still left with questions); you answered all the questions I have and your visuals speak 1,000 words. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I have subscribed! Regards

[@natewanders]

I am happy that I provided enough info. I always feel like I forget something or could do better explaining.

[@cmacrafton]

Thank you for the info and the links. That’s really nice of you.

[@TravelingonAdventures]

Pretty simple and staightforward.

Starlink on east coast works 100% of the time!

[@Andy-rp3ee]

Have you checked out the DC conversions since this install?

[@gcslade7487]

Great content that is very helpful for both my Starlink set-up and storage. 😃

[@natewanders]

Happy you found it helpful.

[@bobabooie6389]

Nice setup 👌

How did you pull away the bottom sections of the pole? I’ve tried and tried! (4 min)

[@Steve_W5IEM]

Did you ever figure this out?

[@truckinbob1]

Where can I find the mount that the modem fits in, Thanks for the info

[@natewanders]

Glad you found it.

[@troylobdell1493]

What’s the trick to getting the bottom two sections off.

[@natewanders]

Loosen it and extend as far as it will go. Then just work it back and forth. There are two small nipples inside that keep it together. Little elbow grease and you can pull it out

Hey just fyi the pole link sends you back to Home Depot

[@CheeselesCrust]

What kind of speed are you getting and, does it vary depending on location and direction the transmitter?

[@natewanders]

I have never done a speed test so I’m not sure on speeds. It’s been more than fast enough for everything we do but we are medium to low usage. Starlink points NE so a somewhat clear view of the NE sky is needed. We had tree cover everywhere we stayed from Wisconsin to Missouri and it still worked with limited interruptions. Noticed the best service once we got to where trees were no longer an issue.

[@RetiredRoadTripping]

You get good service keeping the router in the under storage with the doors closed?

[@natewanders]

Yes. I’ve not had any issue with it underneath. I know a lot of people run the cable through the slide so they can have the box inside but honestly I don’t think it’s necessary for our 5th wheel. Maybe if we had a 43’ toy hauler and had the office in the garage I’d find a different option.

[@Phuztone]

Is the connection inside the storage area placed there by you or is it a part of trailer? I didn't know that Starlink had a connector for connecting the Starlink system to an RV. Also you appear to have something to hold the pole on the side of the RV near the top...what is this?

[@natewanders]

I feed the Starlink cable through where my water hose enters the RV. You can buy aftermarket connectors to attach the Starlink similar you do with the cable outlet but I do not have that. It’s the flagpole buddy that is attached to my ladder for holding the flagpole with Starlink. It comes with 2 pieces. The lower piece and the one higher up on ladder.

I found it in your link
