Why it matters

We look beyond stars: what problem it solves, whether it creates real utility, and what makes its approach worth noticing.

Last 90 days

Problem

Addresses the reliance of official Starlink apps on the cloud and their limited local history retention by providing a purely local, cloud-free monitoring and management tool.

Practical value

Offers high utility with live monitoring for throughput, latency, power draw, and obstruction maps, alongside direct hardware controls for snow melt, sleep schedules, and device management.

Innovation / differentiation

Innovates by directly connecting to Starlink hardware via local gRPC-web and packaging the tool into flexible standalone forms like desktop tray apps and browser extensions.

Leverage potential

Provides high engineering leverage by sharing a single codebase across macOS/Windows desktop apps, browser extensions, and web development harnesses.

Why now

Well-timed as satellite internet adoption grows alongside increasing demand for local privacy, offline reliability, and transparent network telemetry.

Community activity

In the last 90 days there were 37 new issues and 37 pull requests; the bounded issue/PR samples include 26 issue authors and 12 PR contributors, with 3 releases.

Maintainer responsiveness

The 37-issue window sample had a 41% close rate, and the 37-pull-request sample had a 70% merge rate. Maintainer-response observations covered 100% of that issue sample, with a 41% response rate and median first response of 4.7 days.

Key highlights

  • Stat tiles — live downlink/uplink, pop-ping latency, power draw (watts),
  • Throughput chart — down + up over 15m/1h/6h windows on the dashboard, and
  • Latency chart — bucketed max so spikes survive downsampling; outages

Quick start

More about it

Dishylink talks to the Starlink dish over the LAN for throughput, latency, power, and obstruction views—local telemetry without a cloud narrative. Desktop and browser dashboards are supported.

It fits home users who want to understand “why is it slow tonight?” It explains device-side symptoms; it does not replace ISP tickets.
