What is the Warranty Period for Starlink Hardware?

As of now, there are different Starlink plans as well as equipment that have different types of warranty coverages. Here we will try to go through all of them. Before discussing every hardware, you should know there’s a 30-day window to return your Starlink hardware. Suppose you receive your product today and are not satisfied with it, you can return the Starlink and get your complete money back. However, once the 30 days are over, you cannot do anything but claim a warranty.

Starlink Residential, Best Effort, and RV

If you have Starlink Residential or Best Effort, you will be getting a limited warranty of 12 months which becomes effective from the date of purchase. On the other hand, if you buy Starlink from an authorized seller, your Starlink warranty will be applicable from the date of activation. The same goes for Starlink RV customers as well.

Interestingly, European and UK customers are getting a warranty of 2 years if they purchase directly from the Starlink website. This makes it a bummer for US customers.

Starlink Aviation and Maritime

If you have purchased Starlink Aviation or Maritime for your business endeavor, you may be happy to know that Starlink offers 24 month or 2 years warranty from the date of activation on these services.

Starlink High Performance

Starlink High Performance is a residential service that has a different satellite. Unfortunately, just like the other residential options, you will have a considerably low warranty time of just 12 months or 1 year.

What is Covered in Warranty?

If you are going to claim a Starlink warranty in 2024, you should be aware of what’s covered and what’s not. As of now, the things covered in the warranty include the following:

• Dish
• Cables
• Router
• Mounts (Not Third-Party)
• Internet service

This means if any of these things go wrong, you can claim the warranty and get your replacement. In the case of Internet Service, either of your service equipment, such as the router or Dish, will be replaced.

However, you cannot claim a warranty if something happens due to natural calamities, such as rain or snow. Also, if a third-party technician has opened or tried to do something, your warranty will be void.

What is the Warranty of Replaced items?

If you have recently received your replaced item from Starlink after claiming the warranty, the replaced item will carry a warranty of 3 months from the date of issue. That means if you have recently got your router replaced, it will be covered for 3 months. In 3 months, if anything happens, you can get a replacement again.
