- Note: reactivation depends on availability in your area. If capacity is full, you may be offered a mobile/Roam or portable plan.
Troubleshooting & Tips
- If your hardware was purchased from an authorized reseller, activation should still go through Starlink’s system. If bought secondhand, ensure the previous owner has transferred ownership.
- New kits provide a 60-minute grace window to set up even without internet elsewhere.
- For roam or seasonal use, you can reactivate service at each location via the portal—no ticket required—usually in about 30 minutes.
- Always confirm your service address and local availability before reactivation, especially after pausing
