I'm presuming that previously all your local traffic went through your
modem/router, with it just being a link to the Starlink device.  And
now you've removed that modem and just use the Starlink device by
itself.

It could be that the Starlink device treats the 2.4 and 5 GHz networks
as completely separate and won't communicate between them.  Or it could
be treating all traffic on its WiFi like that (guest or private
networking).

It could also do what one of my dual-band routers did, and try to kick
everything off the 2.4 GHz carrier onto the 5 GHz carrier
(bandsteering).  The trouble is various devices are 2.4 GHz-only and
can't do that.

You could look for options like that (guest/private networking,
bandsteering) on the Starlink device.

It's quite likely that all you have to do is change your LAN IP
addresses to use the same private IP range as the Starlink device. 
Mixing 192.168.2.x and 10.0.0.y together without a suitable gateway
*between* them is just not going to work.

You could go back to using your modem as your local access point. 
There are some advantages to using some separate kind of LAN hub
outside of your ISP device.

 * You can reboot the ISP device without killing all your LAN traffic.
 * You can probably get a better router than theirs, more configurable,
   able to handle more simultaneous connections, stronger WiFi, etc.
 * You can change ISPs without having to reconfigure your whole LAN
   around it (their supplied device might require a different local IP
   numbering scheme, they'll change your SSID, etc).

There are disadvantages, too.  Such as NAT can be a pain for things
like FTP, double-NAT can be even worse.
