I use StarLink for work and have had no issues with it until June 7th. I use Microsoft's Power Platform extensively and on the 7th, they changed to a new cloud service dependency and suggested adding the new URLs to your firewall dependencies. I didn't know there were any in the StarLink router. Also on the 7th, I lost access to all my apps in PowerApps! I know it's the StarLink because if I disconnect and use my phone as a hotspot, I can access everything without issue. I travel full time, so also tried the wifi where I currently am and similarly could access everything just fine. Does anyone know if the firewall settings in the local router can be edited by the end user? The app is really laid out poorly and I can't find anything in it. Thanks in advance for any information anyone can provide!

Edit: Found a solution on the powerapps forum
"Added the Google DNS servers (8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4) to the custom DNS settings on the StarLink router and that seems to have resolved the issue after a router reboot."

I feel you, same problem here -> same workaround. Either hotspot or VPN to my office-network to get around the blockage of powerapps by starlink.
Hopefully this gets resolved in the near future cause its a real pain to not be able to work efficiently and also its a bit disappointing to be investing in a high technical product as starlink and then encounter this kind of problems where a firewall wont let a microsoft product through.
