Wow.. This is fantastic customer service/delivery.

Via email and on the starlink app.. I just feel they are using end users as beta testers.. Which is very bad

.. In the long run, this will cause a problem for them, especially when there's a competition.. Bezos will begin marketing his hardware soon, promising to be cheaper and faster, covering more regions.. I just hope they will work better on their customer relation as well. as opposed to starlink
Re: My SpaceX Starlink Internet Experience In Lagos, Nigeria by brainware: 12:50pm On Apr 17, 2023
That's the message sent for a new kit they are preparing to send to me.. Dunno what dey detected, cos the hardware is still functioning

Been monitoring Starlink role out in Nigeria. I think it's time to jump in.

On checking thier site, I notice the following:

1. Prices are given in Naira. Does this mean that payments can be made in Naira?

2. Hardware cost is now N268k. Does this mean price has been slashed from the initial >N500k?

3. One of the spec of the router says it allows up to 12 Starlink mesh nodes. What exactly is Starlink mesh node?

4. The range of the router is 185m. Does this mean within this range one Does not need to boost signal?

Will appreciate those knowledgeable with thr service to please help answer.
Thanks

The starlink wifi router is super fast and the coverage can go quite a good distance to cover the entire house. However, it didn’t meet my expectations in terms of Control and use. It should have features such as
Users management
* device block/unblock
* device data allocation
* parental control features
* content filtering
Etc

Did you experience these issues too? I have been trying since last Friday. My house has really poor internet reception so I was really banking on Starlink.

You would be supposed that you NIN might just be the culprit. Try use another person details, maybe Madam's.
