Moving Starlink to a New Home: Service Address and Reinstallation
Plan the account update, safe removal, equipment inspection, new mount, cable route, and activation when taking Starlink to another home.
Plan the account update, safe removal, equipment inspection, new mount, cable route, and activation when taking Starlink to another home.
Plan the new site before disconnecting
Check availability at the new address, scan possible dish positions and measure a complete compatible cable route. Record your existing kit, mount and network settings. Confirm whether the mount can be safely removed and reused at the new property.
Moving equipment you already own is not an ownership transfer. Do not release the terminal from your account merely to change its location.
Change the correct service line
Sign in to Starlink and open the subscription for the terminal you are moving. Review the service-address control and the plans offered for the new location. Enter the intended address accurately, check any map pin, and review the effective date, charges and availability before confirming.
If the address or option is rejected, save the message and resolve it before taking down the old installation. A physical move does not guarantee capacity or the same plan at the destination.
Pack and reinstall
Power down and disconnect according to the kit instructions. Protect connectors, keep the power equipment with the correct terminal and avoid tight cable bends. Repair abandoned building penetrations appropriately; do not leave the old property with an open entry.
At the new site, inspect reused parts before installation. Confirm the mount, cable route, power and official app alignment. Reusing a mount is worthwhile only if it suits the new structure and sky view.
Verify completion
Check the new service address and active subscription in your account. Test the internet near the router, then in the rooms you need. Review obstruction history after it has collected data. If the kit shows an account/location error, investigate the service change; if it is online but one room is weak, address local Wi-Fi.
