What Starlink announced today
@Starlink posted that Router 4 is now shipping with Starlink V4 Kits in the United States and Canada on Residential 200 Mbps and Residential Max, and linked the residential order page. The post quotes Starlink's September 9, 2026 Router 4 announcement video.
Specs Starlink already published
In that September 9 post, @Starlink said the next-generation Starlink router brings faster peak speeds and coverage of up to 3,500 sq ft (325 m²), and that Router 4 is the first Starlink router with a Wi-Fi 7 chipset, built for streaming, gaming, and everyday use. At the time, Starlink said it would be available soon in select areas.
Today's post is the shipping confirmation for US and Canada Residential 200 Mbps and Residential Max V4 kits. It does not restate peak speeds, price, or other plan tiers in the text.
Confirmed vs not claimed
Confirmed: Router 4 is shipping with Starlink V4 Kits in the United States and Canada on Residential 200 Mbps and Residential Max, per @Starlink on November 6, 2026.
From the September 9 @Starlink post: Wi-Fi 7 chipset and up to 3,500 sq ft (325 m²) coverage.
Not claimed here: Exact price, hardware swap rules for existing kits, availability outside the US and Canada, or which other residential tiers get Router 4. The residential product page did not clearly surface those details in a static fetch at publish time, so they are left out.
Why it matters
Router hardware is the last mile most Starlink home users actually touch. A Wi-Fi 7 router shipping with new V4 kits is a concrete hardware step for households on the named US and Canada residential plans, separate from constellation or airline Wi-Fi news.
