Starlink Mini X adds Wi-Fi 6 router for enhanced portable connectivity

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

SpaceX's Starlink Mini X kit now includes an additional Router Mini, offering Wi-Fi 6 capabilities that extend coverage up to 1,300 square feet and support for 235 devices. While the integrated Wi-Fi 5 on the main Starlink Mini dish is sufficient for many users, the extra router can be beneficial for improving Wi-Fi signal strength in areas with obstructions. This allows users to optimize the placement of the router for better internal connectivity, independent of the satellite dish's ideal sky-facing position. AI

IMPACT Minor improvement to portable internet connectivity, enhancing user experience for remote workers and travelers.
