    We have a 2021 Keystone Cougar 24RDS 5th Wheel. Just purchased a Starlink package. Wondering if anyone has suggestions for Starlink cable routing on 24RDS?

    I open the slide out about 8 inches, then slide the cable head in between the seals till the cable will reach the modem we keep by a table close to that edge of the slide. Then open the slde out fully. The cable snakes easliy inside and isn't crushed by the side as the seals cushion it. The reverse that to stow the dish when we travel.

    Just a note, the end of the cable that plugs into the modem is what you need/want to protect. Ours had a plastic travel cap and I keep that cap on till ready to plug into the modum, and then reinstall it when pulling the cable back out of the rv. No need to force that cable and hurt that plug. Hope it all works for you.
