Erik's Ultimate Internet Setup
Detailed setup video, complete with wiring diagrams
October 2023: THIS ARTICLE HAS BEEN UPDATED TO INCLUDE STARLINK'S NEW HIGH PERFORMANCE FIXED MOUNT DISH & PEPLINK'S MAX BR2 DUAL 5G ROUTER.
In the video above, Erik shares his secrets to staying connected on the road including how he utilizes Peplink devices to manage his multiple simultaneous internet connections. Erik utilizes cellular connections from each of the major cellular providers, free WIFI when available, and also Starlink when he has a clear view of the northern sky. His Peplink mobile router allows him to control up to 7 internet sources simultaneously from a single dashboard.
UPDATE: The products featured and wiring diagrams have been updated to include Starlink's fixed mount high performance dish. The features and benefits of the 2022 install remain unchanged, a major benefit of putting a Peplink mobile router at the hub of your setup.
"I've tested everything out there, and this is the closest solution to home-like internet."

Since this post was released we have released a telescoping 20" Antenna mast that works with Starlink's pole mount adapter and is an excellent way to mount your Starlink.
The optional ladder/suction mounting kit lets you quickly mount antennas including Starlink.
With advancements and changes to Starlink including companies that now convert Starlink Roam units to fixed mount units we recommend customers look at the Starlink High Performance Fixed Mount or Fixed Mount Solutions for the Roam dish instead of building the mast featured in this video. That said, we've included a parts list below.
