Ok, so the router was in the office separately located from the modem. Two distinct components. I see. LOL...yes, very different looking components!Starlink has its own modem and router that come with the initial installation. They are both white and sleek. Very stylish. These are installed at the house.
Then he who shall not be named ran a cable to my office and that’s where the office router is. It has been working fine like this for years. This is the router that went bad.
I’ve rebooted that router before, but this time it didn’t work. I liked this router because its password was exotictree followed by 3 digits. A fun pw for me because I like trees and it was easy to remember.
I’m sorry I can’t explain it better.

I actually did that resetting and it didn’t work. I don’t always call things by the correct name, because my brain has limited ability to hang on to words I don’t use often.Ok, so the router was in the office separately located from the modem.

You might try resetting the router. Sometimes rebooting just repeats the processing of possibly corrupted setup data. Routers can be very persnickety devices.
It may still be salvageable. Resetting brings the router back to its default settings. However to do this you must make sure you still have the original password from the manufacturer. There's a button to press and hold for at least 30 seconds to clear what is in memory.
Once you actually reset the router you want to provide a new password for it, and change whatever settings relative to the band, channel, etc.
I see. Agreed, it if can't reset that sounds like the hardware is shot.I actually did that resetting and it didn’t work. I don’t always call things by the correct name, because my brain has limited ability to hang on to words I don’t use often.
Thank you.
