      Oh, so it's not actually a sat-link failure, it just stops responding to pfSense?

      In the screenshots above the starlink gateway is shown as 'dynamic' and the IP address as 0.0.0.0 which implies it was unable to get or renew a DHCP lease.
      Check the dhcp logs for errors.
      Check the main system log to see if it lost link to the startlink device at that time.

        @stephenw10 OK next time it crashes I'll take a look, thank you again. Also can you think of any reason why from the starlink router I can get 300mbps over its wifi or so but on Ethernet on my pfSense box it takes awhile to get a good speed and is always lower like 200 vs 300

          Not really if you don't have any traffic shaping. 200Mbps is above what you would see if there was a link speed/duplex mismatch. You should check Status > Interfaces for errors though.
