Can I install the router without an existing home network?

Wednesday

Model: Archer BE9300

Hardware Version:

Firmware Version:

I have Starlink now. I rely solely on the Starlink router for connecting to devices including phone. (We live in an internet and cell phone desert.)

My question is related to this. When I put the Starlink router in bypass mode I will not be able to use the TP-Link Tether App to configure the router. I will not be able to connect a computer to the internet until the new TP-Link BE9300 router is online.

Will I be able to connect the Wan port between the Starlink modem and my new TP-Link router and have connectivity to fully configure the router?

@MrChucklesThe Tether app will connect to the router wirelessly and allow you to set it up. You can also set it up with a computer that is plugged into the Ethernet port.
