If you’ve already got a Starlink Kit, you may be able to use it with a Telstra Satellite internet plan. NOTE: The Generation 1 Circular Starlink Kit is not compatible. If you own this kit, you’ll need to select a new Starlink Satellite Kit.

For Starlink Standard Actuated Kit Users: If you plan to use your Starlink Standard Actuated Kit with Telstra Satellite Internet, you must purchase a Starlink Ethernet Adaptor. This adaptor connects the Telstra Smart Modem 3 to the Starlink Router, enabling both voice and internet services. Buy the Starlink Ethernet Adaptor.
