Here is the speed I get in Canada... Nigeria may not be there yet but it is question of time. With this kind of speed browsing is a whole different experience

Nice, but we still have a lot of work to do.

Must we deliberately place our dear NIGERIA in the stinking pot? The country is doing great. Let's appreciate her efforts. Long Live Nigeria!

hmmmm......this is my own MTN speed.....is it fast??

We want to install an operations software for our Nigerian partner but the internet speed falls below the expected standard, so it's difficult to implement.
We have tested speeds for partners in other African countries and two or three seem to fair better.
They need to really improve on internet.Many users they have but slow compared to worlwide standards.

What's the basis for the division by 8?

8 bits = 1 byte.... Basic computer science

are u talking about present day nigeria or nigeria of the old?

KINGwax: I don't knw why u guys don't biliv ds! Do u knw UK wil be introducing her first 4g next yr october? If u ask them, they complain of slow network.
I chat wit friends in ties states and cousins in UK and d truth is, they complain of network problem too.
I don't knw wot network u guys use...i've used swift 4g and it's fuckin fast..i also use glo with my phone and it's 3g has been the bomb. When the condition is fine, i browse with the mtn fast link and download files in seconds. I swear!
I'm alwys suprised when people complain..except the hitches, i'm cool

There is a difference between network connectivity problem and network speed. Never heard of network being slow in the UK unless the person is using P2P or someone is downloading large files on their network

@Boss I greet ur canadian speed. With determination and Hardwork, Nigeria will be there soon.

I am very sure when the GLO Fibre optic cable comes into full use in Naija, we will unbeatably be the fastest in Africa.

3000kb/s is not = about 25mb/s
Remember 1mb = 1024 x 1024 bytes
3000 kb/s = about 2.5 mb/s

1024kb/s = 1mb/s
3000kb/s = 3000/1024 = 2.9mb/s

This report is factual and i can attest to it, my Etisalat easyblaze is as fast as lightning, this report must have considered Etisalat as a case study but phuck emptyhen, i had to discard their modem out of frustration, those people and their network should be boycotted by Nigerians or better still banned from operating in this country, they are only out to reap and defraud us. I WILL SHOUT IT ON THE ROOFTOPS, THERE IS NO BETTER NETWORK THAN ETISALAT, THEY ARE THE BEST!

Take it easy bro.. I never said who was 'schooling" and who was "learning". I just posted a screenshot and bro stop hating. Try to post your own screenshots too. This is for educational purposes too. You dont have to turn every thread to a "Nigera Vs Ghana" fight.

BTW Am a full blooded Nigerian (Born and brought up), Just in Ghana for a very short time.

Broadband speeds have dramatically increased in Nigeria. As a long time user, we remember the old days when NITEL introduced Dial Up Internet. We used to browse at N20 per min at the only Cyber cafe in town. With the launch of GSM in 2001, things have changed for the better, Yes, there are challenges in terms of consistency and speed across the country but gradually we will reach the promised land. As an avid internet user, i have clocked over 1.2Megabytes per second while downloading from the internet using Internet Download Manager on both MTN and Glo's 3G Networks. Haven't extensively tested Etisalat & Airtel yet. It seems there's more bandwidth in the North as there's less traffic here. Plus, if you are connected to a base station with a fiber link your good to go. Please check out the following threads to see speed test and IDM screenshots showing downloads from users across Nigeria on different networks.
