Starlink installation on the Kāpiti Coast — Paraparaumu, Waikanae, Raumati and the rural valleys behind them. Dish, router and whole-home WiFi sorted in one visit.
Signal problems almost always come down to the install — an obstructed sky view, a dish that's not quite level, or a router left disconnected from the rest of the house. I check for obstructions, position and mount the dish properly, then set up the router and fold it into your existing network so it actually works the way it's supposed to.
On the Kāpiti Coast, Starlink is mostly two kinds of job: rural properties up Reikorangi and Maungakotukutuku that never got decent broadband, and homes in Paraparaumu and Waikanae that want a backup for working from home. Either way, the dish needs a clear view of the sky, a mount that handles the coastal wind, and a router that's part of your home network — not sitting on its own.
The same handful of rules, every single job — no exceptions.
Kāpiti Coast installs are booked in advance, and I group jobs on the coast so there's no big travel charge. Router, WiFi or app troubleshooting after the install can usually be sorted remotely, so you're not waiting on a visit.

Can Starlink be a backup to fibre on the Kāpiti Coast?
Yes. I can set Starlink up as a failover so your home office or business switches over automatically if the fibre drops, then back again when it returns.

Do you install Starlink outside Palmerston North?

Same-day is often available closer to Palmerston North; further out, visits are booked in advance. Remote help with the Starlink app, router or WiFi settings is available anywhere in New Zealand, though the physical dish mount needs an on-site visit.
Can you install Starlink on a rural or lifestyle block?
