## Overview

Two routers ship with current kits.

| Router | Comes with | Role |
| ------ | ---------- | ---- |
| **Router 3** | Standard 4 X | Main router |
| **Router Mini** | Standard 4, Mini X Kit | Main router on the Standard 4, mesh node alongside a Starlink Mini |

The Starlink Mini has a router built into the dish, so it needs neither of
these to get online. A Router Mini alongside a Mini is there to extend
coverage.

## Which one do I have?

Open the Starlink app and look at **Network**, or look at the box. The Router 3
is the tall upright unit; the Router Mini is the small flat one.
