Alternatively, you may be able to use a VPN service to get a static IP.
If they don’t support domain name, do they have an API that you can use to change the IP? If so, you could have a script that just sets the IP whenever your public IP changes.
Bypassing the router would not help. Unless you have a public IP, you still won’t be able to get any incoming traffic.
I think their customer support is confused. Static external IP always requires contacting ISP and in most cases requires recurring payments. Nowhere in the linked document or in their FAQ they direct you to your ISP. In both documents they are only talking about configuring your router.
I never used their software but I suspect static external IP is not required but recommended. They are just worried IP address changes while the application is running. That will interrupt a recording session or may cause a failure or a delay to start a recording session if the address changes after their application was launched.
While Starlink IP address is not static it does not change that often and if it changes in most cases it changes when the dish updates its software 4 am. I think if you start the application in the morning and shut it down when you are done you’ll be fine without a static external IP.
Speaking of interruptions do you know you need an obstruction free view of the sky for real-time communications such a live recordings?
Use a VPN that supports static public IP like this one: Dedicated IP📍 — get a personal VPN IP address | NordVPN
I’ll double check in the morning. But I believe we have a static, public IP. It might be different when you are a government entity than regular business. I’ll let you know tomorrow.
All of us in the audio production industry are not debating your statement lol
I don’t think it will because Starlink uses CGNAT.
a proper manageable router circumvents that limitation
Starlink does not have Static IPs.

You missed the entire point of this thread. The public routable IP option doesn’t use CGNAT.
No, sorry, it does not. You can hook up any router you want, you won’t be able to receive any incoming traffic on a standard starlink plan.
hmm… this thread might be quite useful, someone else asked port fwd too and the thought was a Ubiquiti USG or Dream Machine, but good head’s up, thanks!
