Seems it's better, but the cap is annoying, allow me use 80mbps, finish the 10GB or 3 GB fast then I can do other things... Time na money... grin

Well said, @Dam5reey, that's the koko of the matter.

One reason I can think of that wouldn't make ntel commit to that kind of speed, would be limitations in the sustainability of that sort of speed, which, in turn, is most probably dictated by the current state of the network's infrastructure.

So, ntel needs to offer a lot more to earn my own 60k per three months.

Please educate me!!

Why pay 20k per month for the XL plan when you can pay 12,5 per month for the standard unlimited plan??

12.5k per month gives you 3gb/day of uncapped data, then it slows down. For 20k/month you get 10gb/day of fast internet, then it slows down. So for 20k I am getting 300gb of fast internet. When smile offers 100gb a month for 20k a month and then speeds go down as well.
I use a lot of data every day, thats why.

For now, it if 60k for three months. That won't fly.who has 60k sitting down?

Plus i think 20k is not competitive

but that's what I'm using on my router tho... and it works well!

I doubt that one plan will be faster than another?
So in essence, you're paying the extra 10k per month to have a 10gb daily cap as opposed to a 3gb daily cap

Am i right?

Smartphone plan is what you get when you are a new subscriber.

Daily data cap is 3gb

My oga, help me ask NTEL that question.

And this is where NTEL gets it wrong.

Daily data cap is totally wrong, what Will happen if you are out of town for 2 weeks and router switch off.

Will all your unused 3gb data​ be accumulated? NO

They should just tell us the amount of data available for each plan and let the subscriber determine how to use it.

My brother that is what I am battling now in my office. I'm on night shift and I mistakenly restarted the router when I resumed duty at 7pm, the speed can only just manage to browse Nairaland, other sites are not opening. Thinking of sleeping now and wake up later as there is no movie to kill the boredom here now.

Just imagine how useless the network is all in the name of fair usage policy. This is really a shame/disgrace to LTE standard.

See permutations ontop internet grin Ntel nor try at all. There is a difference between throttling and punishment for exceeding data cap..theirs is worse.
Re: Subscriber Options for UNLIMITED Internet - WORTH IT? by toluxa1(m): 11:15pm On Apr 22, 2017
I thought the throttling is now automatically being applied even if you don't restart. Am I wrong?

Apparently we are supposed to be throttled to 512kb/s, but this is clearly not the case.
Re: Subscriber Options for UNLIMITED Internet - WORTH IT? by Ativ: 7:49am On Apr 23, 2017
What's NTEL's data cap?

3gb equivalent to 300MB or 3GB=3,000MB?

For the past 8 months I have been on ntel monthly data bundle plan. On the 24th Of April when it expires,
I will be moving back to Swift Essential Plus. No hard feelings cool

Was on NTEL monthly data plan for a couple of months. Network started out good then became Shitty. I couldn't get YouTube videos to stream at at lest 720p w/o buffering. At times even 480p videos would buffer during the day.

I had to wait until 2:45am to stream at HD quality w/o buffering. All this was way before they started this their throttling nonsense.

Switched back to Swift Essential Plus and now Swift Club Plus. Nothing personal, just business. No hard feelings. cool

Na wah for una ó.

I've been waiting for someone to come here and say something positive. What's all this?

Let me tell all of you that I am an ntel pioneer. My sim is one of the first 200 activated in Lagos.

And its even a customised number I picked myself.

So if you all think I will sit back and be using my mtn data to be reading all this ntel slander u must be mistaken

If you don't have any positive to say about ntel, don't post here again. Otherwise we go fight oooo.

In short, I don vex. Make I find my Spectranet sim card. So that my armoury will be full for any attacks.

Officially Voltroning for Ntel henceforth
