Troubleshooting

How do I adjust snow melt mode?

To adjust Snow Melt setting, open the Starlink app > Navigate to Settings > Starlink > Snow Melt > Select the preferred mode:

Off: Never melt snow
Automatic: Automatically detect snow and heat Starlink terminal when needed.
Pre-heat: Keep Starlink terminal warm to better resist snow build-up. This option may increase power consumption
