No, we are not in anyway affiliated with SpaceX / Starlink.

No, Apple does not provide a server platform since the XServe. The connector is supported on Linux, Windows, various embedded platforms like Synology, pfSense, Mikrotik, etc. To run the connector on an Apple Mac, you may use the Docker instructions (see Install Docker Desktop on Mac).

If you are an enthusiast, consider running the connector under Docker on your Mac.

Yes, via Agilicus AnyX, we can help you with the carrier NAT (CGNAT) issue you might be hitting to access your security camera. See “Seamless Inbound Remote Access via Starlink”, “Starlink Port Forwarding“

See Will this work with my security camera? and “Network Video Recorder Setup” and “Synology Surveillance Station“

No. The Agilicus AnyX is a SaaS solution, cloud based. In order to work with your Starlink network, you will install a small piece of software on a single device you already own.

The Agilicus AnyX platform is almost entirely cloud SaaS. In order to work with your Starlink network, you will be installing the Agilicus Connector on a device you already have. This software will facilitate the incoming network traffic.

Yes, the end user can use the web-based profile as well as the desktop based launcher. The desktop-based launcher requires OSX 11 (last supported version by Apple) or later.

You can see an animated diagram on the Agilicus Connector page. But in general, this works the same way e.g. a Google Nest thermostat works. Something inside your home network makes a persistent outbound connection to our cloud. When you are away, you will connect to our cloud, it will confirm your identity, and bridge you across these two outbound connections.

Agilicus AnyX is an implementation of Zero Trust, a security best practice. You will use single-sign-on authentication via your Google or Microsoft account (there are no passwords). You can optionally enable multi-factor authentication. All traffic is encrypted with TLS 1.3 HTTPS. You can configure firewall rules in this system for e.g. geo-ip based access, as well as other more complex rules. You will have a full audit trail of who used what when.

You can see the pricing here. If you have only 2 users there will be no ongoing cost.

Agilicus AnyX is an industrial, business product. The large set of features may make it too complex for a consumer environment.

Agilicus AnyX is an excellent solution for web applications, for SSH (e.g. command line access), for a Share (e.g. file access), and for remote desktop (Microsoft Remote Desktop, VNC). If you have complex networking needs that require layer-3 routing this is probably not the right solution for you.

The Agilicus Connector supports many device types. Windows, Linux, OpenWRT, Synology. You can see more information on the product guide page. In general, the machine will need about 100MB of storage, 20MB of ram to operate.

It is very unlikely the Agilicus Connector will install on your camera.

We do not recommend using the RTSP feature of your camera with Agilicus AnyX. Instead we recommend using the HTTP interface.

Many security cameras have a web interface. If you have a URL you can use from your browser at home, then you can use it while away with Agilicus AnyX.

In most cases, if you have an NVR, this will work. If your camera supports ONVIF, we have specific support for some NVR with that.

Many people use Synology Surveillance Station or Shinobi NVR with Agilicus AnyX.

Sample setups for generic ONVIF cameras are here.

A sample setup for an older Hikvision is here.
