WAN/LAN Port


3. Configure Network Settings (Advanced Use):

  • Recommended: DHCP enabled. Starlink automatically assigns an IP.

  • If static IP required (advanced use):

    • IP: 192.168.100.x

    • Subnet: 255.255.255.0

    • Gateway: 192.168.100.1

    • DNS: 8.8.8.8 (Google) or 1.1.1.1 (Cloudflare)


4. Verify Connectivity

  1. On the Discovery Unit, open a browser.

  2. Run: www.google.com in the search engine

  3. Contact PV Support to confirm Discovery Unit can communicate with the LineVu remote portal. 



5. Troubleshooting (Advanced Use):

  • No link light: Check adapter, cable, or port seating.

  • No IP from DHCP: Reboot the Discovery Unit or configure static.

  • Ping IP works but DNS fails: Update DNS to 8.8.8.8.

  • Still offline: Confirm Starlink app shows “Online” and reboot router.
