How can you tell if your Starlink is Gen 2 or Gen 3?

You can tell which generation Starlink hardware you have by looking at a few key features:

• Dish Shape:

  • Gen 2 has a rectangular (almost square) dish.Gen 3 has a larger, nearly square dish with a slightly different mounting design.

• Router:

  • Gen 2 comes with a white rectangular router with a single Ethernet port (or sometimes no Ethernet port on the standard model).

  • Gen 3 includes a new, larger router that offers built-in Ethernet ports, and the router itself is slightly different in appearance.

• Starlink App:

  • You can check your hardware version by opening the Starlink app, tapping on your device info, and looking for the hardware version details.
