If I were you I'd just plug the StarLink directly in to my NetGear router's WAN interface and let it worry about DHCP. You could then keep everything on the LAN side of the router the same. I wouldn't trust StarLink's firewall anyway, use the one in your NetGear to protect yourself.
Be sure to let us know how the StarLink connection works out for you!

Actually, I don't think this would work, since both routers use the same 192.168.1.0 range and I can't change the range in the StarLink device. :-(
There is a regulation here that says that all ISP routers must have a setting to put in bridge mode. Ie, to do nothing at all, and pass it all to a customer's own router.
You must try and see what's on http 192.168.1.1. It is impossible there is no configuration at all.
Yes. Well, it turns out that router configuration can only be accomplished via the Starlink smartPhone app. (!) and at the moment, the smartPhone app is telling me, "Router unreachable" and "Your Starlink router is unreachable. Make sure your router is powered on, and that your device is connected to your Starlink WiFi network." even though two laptops and my smartPhone can use it to interact with the internet. I will have to "schedule an outage" :-) with my brother to reboot it and hopefully straighten it out before I can continue. Leslie -- Platform: Linux Distribution: openSUSE Leap 15.5 - x86_64
