Hello everyone. I intend to replace my ISP with a starlink mini router
My ISP connection was through PPPoE with a mikrotik rb951
So my Question is when I set up my starlink. Which function should I select from the quick set interface? WISP AP AND AUTOMATIC OR HOME AP OR BASIC AP AND THEN CONNECT MY Starlink to port 1 for easy internet Access. Do I need to reconfigure my router. Thanks
No idea on the specifics of Starlink, but you need to configure your internet connection by hand, because the quick set function is only good for an initial set up and can over write other settings
Starlink mini please
My mikrotik router is already configured and running. Like I said. I use my isp gives me internet access by pppoe connection
So, yes, it does not matter much what your current ISP connection is. What matters is what your Starlink connection requires. This is a Mikrotik forum, so we can tell you how to configure a Mikrotik IF you tell us what type of connection your Starlink device requires.
If you reset to defaults, it should at least "work". If the current config is for PPPoE, it's not just going to work. Now the default on Starlink and MikroTik will get you a double-NAT, which may not be desirable.
So my question is why not just use the Wi-Fi that comes with the Starlink? You can certainly still use the MikroTik as the router if desired by setting "bypass mode" in starlink, but you lose the starlink wi-fi. Alternatively, you can use the RB951 as switch with the starlink act as a router for the default starlink LAN with the RB951 getting some more ethernet ports.
Yes, but OP has a network set up, with wireless, and it should be possible to preserve that, if OP does the leg work and tells us what kind of connection the starlink offers. If the starlink is actually a router in its own right, we need to know that too, or whether the starlink can operate as either bridge or router.
this is the option i want to use. thts why i asked if that will just work if i just check the automatic box instead of the pppoe check box under the internet acquisitions icon from the quick Set on my winbox
If you post your config, we can be sure.
But if you remove/disable PPPoE interface, add ether1 as bridge port, and disable the IP>DHCP Server...that what's it take at a high level. Perhaps quickset has a mode (in upper left corner) for "WISP AP" which have a selector for "Router" or "Bridge" at top, which should also work to get the router setup as a switch.
If using Quickset, it's advised to start from default config.

Who are you kidding?
That's the script I wrote.
Post in this thread has been flagged as spam but there is nothing in there indicating it is.
Copy of config is quite common around here.
That's certainly not the export of something...
And randomly ripping with a randomly copied script is certainly not a true export or a logical response to @Amm0 ...
