LordReed:

I had the same problem. I sent them a mail and it started working, I actually thought they had opened the ports for everyone. Send them a mail and see if they respond.
thanks

Is it just me or does ntel 4g suck at streaming? With a speed of approximately 20mbps it still buffers when streaming YouTube videos at 360p. In fact I only stream without buffer at 360p when I get above 30mbps. On MTN on the other hand with just 10mbps I can stream at 480p without buffer. With 17mbps on MTN I can stream at 720p. Looks like ntel network is only good at surfing and downloading which is very fast, for streaming u need to get around 40mbps before j can enjoy it. I don't know if any one else experience this.

How much does the tplink portable modem costs? And is it a midi or USB only?

Lol. Ntel network is worse now. Worse than before anyways. Still get 3MB/s download speed tho. Used to get 5 to 9MB. Well, I've not tried at locations with great reception.

For some weeks now, the network has been pretty poor here at onike yaba, have been on less than one bar for sometime now. Highest i've been able to achieve is 500Kbps and that's at night; but I can still stream sha though it buffers a little but all in all it still gets the job done.

2 days in a row now I've been having really poor speeds BTW 70-12kbps max

Am I the only one experiencing this?

Have they started throttling, because signal is even better than it used to be this weekend, but speed is terrible.

I experienced this about 2 months ago for about 2 weeks + suffice to say this sub will be my last for a long while. Rather go to swift and get reasonable service.

I don't see the point of Internet slower than 2G

I thought I'm the only one experiencing it. For the last 2 days it has been on snail speed averaging just about 50kbps. Really terrible. Even on a good day with 2 bars when I get up to 35mbps, I still find it difficult to stream at 360p without buffering. I think ntel are throttling streaming media. With just 12mbps on MTN I can stream at 480p without buffering.

I thought I was the only one, of late the speed has been crappy and the signal poor. I think they've started throttling or maybe the naija factor has simply come to the fore.

Well i'll try swift next but definitely not going back to spectranet... God forbid bad thing
Re: Subscriber Options for UNLIMITED Internet - WORTH IT? by Stanley08(m): 12:10am On Sep 19, 2016
Probably it's because 3 months data test drive period is over? Maybe?
Re: Subscriber Options for UNLIMITED Internet - WORTH IT? by oswardic(m): 4:33pm On Sep 19, 2016
It has been really poor over here at Alagbado also.. infact I have their mast opposite my house and I get full bar.. yet, my ultimate speed is 130kb/sec.... This is terrible!

I agree with you. Even Mobdro wont work without a vpn and even then it still buffers. Twitch.tv also buffers while with etisalat that's not as fast streams without issues.
