Starlink adapter vs wifi bridge
Just a fyi, for those waiting for there ethernet adapter that is a ways out for some. I had a decent wifi bridge (old router), meaning it was dual band 5GHz, and had gigabit ports (Ive seen some buy bridges that were only 2.4GHz and 100Mbit ports). I received my adapter this morning, hooked it up, put starlink router in bridge mode. Nothing changed.. Bandwidth is the same, pings are the same, etc.. This is pretty much what I expected. So just make sure you have a good wifi router/bridge for now. Possibly all I gained was being able to shutoff the starlink wifi, so less channel interference.

Same experience here, I was using an old Asus RT-AC66U in Media Bridge mode and there was zero difference when I swapped to the ethernet adaptor.
I was using a 66u-b1 also
