It might be necessary to factory reset your router if you were using custom settings with your previous internet service provider.<\/p>\n While Starlink’s service reaches a huge service area, your personal connection will only reach as far as your router. The included router should be adequate for a small to medium home, but if you have a large house or one made from dense materials like brick or concrete, you might need a better router to get the most from your internet connection.
