the Glo is 3gb and you can get it following the command on *777# and for that of MTN I can't remember but you can google it and mind you its 4.5gb. 1.5gb for 24hrs while the remaining 3gb is for midnight (12am-5am) and last for a month

24GB Glo 8K subscription . . . .

Do you use this plan via a router, mifi device or your phone?
Also, any noticeable lag when playing soccer?

I use Swift 7k for 14GB plan, however the data is always drained at an alarming rate; tried Smile too, but no noticeable difference- even after restricting to 2Mbps.

Maybe Glo could be worth a try. How's the MB 'sucking' by Glo?

I use via a TP link router and don't really have lag when playing FIFA online . . . . .My only regret is the strict NAT am having despite portforwarding and even putting my console in a DMZ zone to open all ports in my console static IP.

While using smile, it was great yet the data guzzling tendency is huge but I loved it since it was on moderate NAT.

Mah nigga, go trash that TP link router, get Cisco instead. I went back to an old Cisco with no silly antenna from 2010 when I noticed my TP link was crapping my connection. I did the same DMZ, forwarding drama yet the con kept getting reset. Cisco linksys bruh.

Thanks for the advice bro . . . .You mind sharing the specific type of the Cisco Linksys you are using ?

Am planning on investing in the NETDUMA Router . . . . .

It's a Cisco Linksys Wireless N router, model WRT120N, black.

Got it from when we installed a kkontech broadband Internet with outdoor antenna back in 2010. Kept it after a few years, thought I couldn't use it again cos the adapter got burnt by accident (my fault, bad socket). Revived it by googling how to hard reset the baby cos I lost the installation disc. The forwarding menu is a breeze. The TP link router was from a yah click installation. I asked the engy to get me a gaming router, got me Tp link, biggest mistake.

Thanks bruv . . . . Wasted my money buying TP Link routers only to get ruthlessly disappointed. I will give the Cisco Routers a go but NETDUMA router is a must for me . . . . .

Hey whatever floats that boat bruh. If it's for gaming, go for the best your money can buy. Think long term, just buy one router. Are you based in Nigeria?

Just to be certain, doesn't Swift have a 14gb 24/7 plan that has unlimited data access from midnight to 6am? That might help curb the "sucking"

Oh OK, keep in mind, all Nigerian Internet is crap. Take it from me. It may not necessarily be the router, or open/closed ports, it could just be our crappy naija Internet with poor lag. F what you see on speed test, you can't match what foreign gamers have flowing like milk & honey 24/7, super high speed with good latency & damn cheap. (my dream cry) in online gaming /competitive play, they always have the edge.

Yes I know our internet is meaningless compared to the dirt cheap , powerful and robust internet in the advanced countries. But Smile4G is fun to use in places they have good coverage. . . . . . Quite unfortunate, am currently where I can't harness their network sad

That sucks. Why Smile tho? Spectranet has the best plans of the top 3. (Dat 55GB for 8K tho over Swift's 34GB for same price) Speed is subjective. Depends on where you are in Lagos or whereever there's coverage.

Using SMILE4G and gaming was breeze despite the fact I was on the fringes of their network with just 1 bar. With their 1 bar I was hitting an average of 2.4 - 2.6MB/S download speed. Though I had to apply some sense by throttling my speed to just 2Mbps due to the incredible exhaustion of data.

Isn't the spectranet and swift plan of 55GB and 34GB limited somewhat in terms of usage ?

Smile currently has a 24/7 unlimited plan for approximately 20K, I believe if one is in an area of good network, 2 cooperative flat mates can have unlimited internet access for just 10K price grin . . . .

One can't use that plan on an account with two devices; I use the regular 14gb plan. To get this unlimited, I'd have to unlink the modems and run separate plans. I no do.

Moreover, I don't see myself waking up 12am-6am daily to use internet...the wahala too much.

They should just introduce a 24/7 unlimited plan for max 10k.

You guys share the tweaks- I'm all ears!

I burnt through 28gb in 3weeks on Swift- how This was with minimal youtube and fb usage. Too much shadiness in their data deduction. Even the Smile I just got, gulps data like the Swift.

Tried one wifree from some dude on here- total crap!

I need that unlimited, but I won't pay 19,800 for it! Even that Smile plan is over-throttled to less than 1Mbps- as I heard.

Omo I blow data pass you. YouTube eats data like crazy. Our shiity Internet can't handle it. Always force myself to watch short videos, 5min max or 480p max when my eyes have upgraded to 2k. Guy don't try watching a gaming vid in 4k. Ya eyes will melt.
