The Problem

A single internet connection is a single point of failure. Storms, construction and provider outages can knock out streaming, security cameras, smart home controls and work calls all at once. On larger properties, even a fast connection often fails to reach the pool house, the dock, the detached garage or the far end of the yard. And some homes, including many lake houses and estates on larger lots, have limited wired internet options in the first place.

How It Works

Site survey. We look at where the dish can see the sky clearly, how cabling can be routed cleanly and where your network needs coverage.
Professional mounting. We mount the Starlink dish securely and run the cabling neatly, with attention to how it looks on the home.
Network integration. We connect Starlink to a Ubiquiti UniFi gateway alongside your existing internet, or as your primary connection if you are replacing service.
Whole-property Wi-Fi. UniFi access points are placed so coverage reaches every room and the outdoor spaces you use.
Testing and walkthrough. We test failover and coverage, then show you how everything works.

What's Included

On-site consultation and placement planning
Starlink dish mounting and clean cable routing
UniFi gateway configuration with dual-WAN
Access point design for whole-home and outdoor coverage, as needed
Testing, setup of your devices and a walkthrough

Every property is different, so the final scope is confirmed during your free consultation.

Failover and Backup Internet

With dual-WAN failover, your UniFi gateway watches both connections. If your primary internet goes down, traffic moves to the other connection automatically, so cameras, smart home systems and video calls keep working. The gateway can also be set up to share traffic across both connections. Learn more about Starlink internet backup with dual-WAN failover and our Starlink professional installation service.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Starlink work alongside my current internet provider?

Yes. We can combine Starlink with your existing service so one connection backs up the other, or set Starlink up as your only connection if you prefer to replace your current provider.

What is dual-WAN failover?

It is a router feature that connects two internet services at once. If one stops working, the router automatically sends traffic over the other, without you needing to do anything.

Do I need to buy the Starlink equipment and plan myself?

Starlink service is a subscription with Starlink. During your consultation we will explain the equipment and service options and help you get set up.

Where will the dish be mounted?

Starlink needs a clear view of the sky. We survey your property to find a location with good sky visibility that also keeps the installation neat and discreet.

Will my Wi-Fi reach the whole property?

That is the goal of every install. We design UniFi access point placement around your home and outdoor spaces so coverage reaches the areas you actually use.

Why hire a professional instead of installing it myself?

Self-installation works for some homes. A professional install adds secure mounting, clean cable routing, failover configuration and whole-home Wi-Fi design, which is where most of the reliability comes from.
