    I doubt that Protron VPN won't work for you. Is the radio at a StarLink terminal?

    Assuming it is and you have limited networking experience, I would suggest using D4Zero.

    I use Starlink in my RV. I don't have any VPN etc. I just connect to my Starlink wi-fi and connect via Smartlink and all is well. I also use remote hams with Starlink and it works great. Went all the way from New England to Wyoming without a hitch whatsoever.

    Tnx Mike & others

    I'm using Tailscale VPN, with Starlink in bypass on a Win11 desktop with a local routerwhich works well.

    I just can't get my Maestro to connect out on the WAN. It works well on my LAN.

    Of course I want remote capability to this station using Starlink.

    If you are commenting, please clarify if the radio is on StarLink or the Operator.

    There is no issue with the operator on StarLink. Having the radio on StarLink requires customization.
