Starlink installation
Starlink installation in Cork
Cork AV carries out Starlink installation in Cork for one fixed fee of €350, including VAT. We fit and aim the dish, bring the cable into the house neatly and set up the Wi-Fi with a network name and password you choose, so you are online before we pack up.
Starlink installation in Cork, from roof to router
Starlink is broadband from satellites in low orbit. It needs a clear view of the sky and a dish fixed securely up high, which is the part most people would rather leave to an installer with ladders and the right brackets.
Site check first
We use the Starlink app on site to find the spot with the clearest view of the sky, away from trees, chimneys and rooflines.
Dish fitted and aimed
Mounted on a gable, wall, chimney or pole with brackets rated for exposed sites, then left to align itself and checked.
Cable brought in neatly
One discreet entry into the house, sealed against the weather, with the cable clipped tidily along its route.
Your own Wi-Fi details
We set the network name and password to whatever you choose, so your phones and laptops are easy to connect.
Router placed well
The Starlink router goes where it reaches the rooms you use most, not just where the cable happens to land.
Tested before we leave
Speed checked in the main rooms and every device you need reconnected and working.

Starlink for rural Cork and holiday homes
Fibre has reached the city and the larger towns, but plenty of homes in North Cork, the Boggeragh Mountains and the West Cork peninsulas still rely on slow copper lines or patchy mobile signal. Starlink gives those houses a fast connection without waiting for the broadband plan to reach them.
We also fit Starlink in holiday homes around Schull, Glandore and Ballydehob, where owners want working Wi-Fi for guests, and as a backup connection for farms and small businesses that cannot afford to go offline.

Bigger properties: a UniFi network with remote support
For a large house, a yard with outbuildings or a business, the single Starlink router is not enough. We build the network on a Ubiquiti UniFi router with access points in each building, all on one Wi-Fi name, and add it to the 1Install client portal so our team can support it remotely.
What the 1Install client portal does for you
- Your own secure login. One place to see the equipment we fitted, its warranty and its service history.
- Remote monitoring. Our team can see when your UniFi network or an access point drops offline, often before you notice.
- Remote fixes. Most Wi-Fi problems are sorted from our office without waiting for an engineer to call out.
- Support requests. Raise a problem in the portal and follow it through to the fix, with everything recorded.
