The Starlink app is useful for a lot of things, like monitoring your Wifi network. You can check to see which devices are currently connected, allowing you to make sure only authorized devices are using your internet connection. Starlink is usually able to identify devices. The app will automatically assign names that let you know what they are. For example, when I connect my smart thermostat, it automatically shows up with the name, “ecobee”, which is the manufacturer of the device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes, Starlink isn’t able to identify or name a device automatically. When this happens, it will show up as “Unknown” in the app. While this doesn’t necessarily mean a hacker has infiltrated your network, it is concerning when you can’t tell who or what is using your network. In this article, I will explain why devices show up as unknown, what it means, and what you can do to remove unknown devices from your Starlink Wifi network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
