Top 20 Fastest Internet Providers In Nigeria by Nobody: 8:42pm On Dec 25, 2014 |
Shortly after I wrote about Ookla’s report about how Nigerian Internet compares to the likes of UK and US which we consider internet “superpowers” (hint: On the average it is faster), I dug a bit more into the report and found some other interesting bits info regarding the Internet Service Providers (ISPs) here in Nigeria and how they stack up to each other. According to the report, here are the top 20 Fastest Internet Service Providers and their average speeds: 1. PROVIDER LIR 13.98 Mbps 2. Netcom Africa Limited 12.19 Mbps 3. Galaxy Backbone Plc 11.91 Mbps 4. Smile Communications Ltd 7.51 Mbps 5. MTN Nigeria 6.93 Mbps 6. SWIFT NETWORKS LIMITED 6.65 Mbps 7. MainOne Cable Company 5.89 Mbps 8. IPNXng 5.21 Mbps 9. VDT Communications Limited 4.80 Mbps 10. Suburban Telecom 4.73 Mbps 11. Internet Solutions Nigeria Limited 4.45 Mbps 12. SPECTRANET LIMITED 3.92 Mbps 13. NGCOM 3.61 Mbps 14. Wireless Broadband Internet service 2.64 Mbps 15. Spectranet Ltd 2.63 Mbps 16. Coollink 2.41 Mbps 17. Swifttalk Limited (NG) 2.34 Mbps 18. Mobitel Nigeria Limited 2.03 Mbps 19. EMTS Limited / Etisalat Nigeria 2.01 Mbps 20. Globacom Limited 1.86 Mbps Another interesting take away from the report is the ranking of the three major cities according to internet download speeds. Lagos boasts the fastest internet in Nigeria with an average of 4.08Mbps, Abuja comes in second with an average of 3.34Mbps and Port Harcourt is 3rd with an average of 1.03Mbps. So do you agree with the official list?? If No, give us your own idea of your list. |

I disagree with this report. I believe the Internet speed you can get some times depends on how much you can pay. Glo for instance can sale dedicated 10mbps Internet speed to you if you can pay for it. 6 Likes |

Smile broadcasts up to 21Mbps. You can't get this speed in most US and UK, but it burns money like fire. The good thing about it is you can reduce the speed to 2Mbps, 5Mbps, 10Mbps, e.t.c thereby saving money. I don't think there's any Nigerian internet provider currently faster than smile. I'm also using spectranet and it broadcasts at 2Mbps regular or you can upgrade to 4Mbps. It's more economical. 1 Like |

Re: Top 20 Fastest Internet Providers In Nigeria by OmichaelO: 1:45am On Dec 26, 2014 |
The List contains many Flaws.. Imagine MTN,SMILE and SWIFT coming before MIGHT MAIN ONE CABLE... I seriously doubt it, with jacked up(less than 40% WIFI signal) network on MAINONE CABLE I still get Close to 1MEGABYTE per SECOND.. So I don't know how MTN without submarine CABLE will beat em.. I stand to be corrected though 1 Share
