Starlink at Superchargers

[Wennfred]

Went to a local supercharger here in Chula Vista Ca. To try the Starlink and no go, seems this one is for Service only and is password protected. The info box does show the wifi icon as posted in the picture, I tried my password for Tesla and my Starlink password as well. Let me know if you have had success locking into Starlink Wifi where you are at.

Would be great for that to catch on.

Would be cool if it id'd Teslas and allowed you to connect.

I’m thinking that it might be active out in the middle of nowhere, where the Cell Signal is limited. But the cool part is that any given station can show as being offline and Tesla support can get right to them faster.

Also Tesla can put the password in the info box like how they use at the Lynx Casino & Hotel in Las Vegas or I think Kettleman has it there as well to get into the facility.

Maybe you need to have the paid connectivity ( $10/month) from Tesla. Not sure about this....

 

[Wennfred]

I pay for the connectivity plan.

Good to know, I also sent Tesla an eMail on this, will see if they will reply back. thanks

Tesla support wrote back and will be working on it, like mentioned above it should connect automatically, will check around Nov 15th.

In Sept we stopped at the Lexington Ky SCer and were chatting with another charger and he point out the StarLink dish and said he was downloading an update while charging. He had just moved into a new house the day before and hadn't had a chance to get his internet up or his HPWC installed.

This already was a thread:

Wiki - Starlink equipped Superchargers

Tesla starts deploying Starlink satellite internet systems at Supercharger stations I thought it would be a good idea to have a place to post when new sites are discovered and what peoples reactions and questions are in relation to having high-speed Starlink internet at Superchargers. Perhaps...

The Starlink connectivity is only for your Tesla, it connects like it does at a service center, w/o user password entry, it's built into the car. So you cannot use it to connect your phone.
