Apparently I can get an ethernet connector and connect another router to the Skylink router, to extend the wifi and use the guest network function on the second (existing) router. How does that work? The signal goes from Skylink to second router and then guest network kicks in?
Get a wifi extender with signal booster.

satellite internet is 23k miles up Starlink is only200+/- up delay is much less. When I moved to Colorado I got DSL which was not bad. My apartment complex dumped Century Link for Comcast. CL does have fiber in town,but not in my complex.

Cheers. Apparently Starlink reckon their ping is between 25 and 50. Mostly it is just under 50. Hopefully that will be ok for gaming for Stepson!
That's the same ballpark as Comcast in my area, with test results. I rarely saw less than 25 ms. I suspect there was something going on, because I saw other Comcast regions with a lower ping. That will work fine. In my case, VTel gets the lowest ping usually, even with ADSL2.

I still remember the days when satellite would be at least around 1,000 ms! Those were the days where you were better off with 56K! LOL!
