Starcomms And Dopc Internet Subscribers
« on: July 16, 2008, 06:03 PM »

Which isp should i go for starcomms evdo or dopc unwired? i need opinions from people using any of these providers.particularly those who live around isolo (e.g ajao estate,okota).i once used starcomms 1x services from february 07 to may 07 it was so slow i returned to my nitel dialup account which was about the same speed as starcomms.meanwhile at the sametime a friend of mine using starcomms in mafoluku was operating at about 3x my speed.hence why i would prefer it if any replies could please indicate their location.i plan to share this connection with 2 other systems hence why i am particular about its reliability and speed.i personally would prefer starcomms since they are capable of attaining higher speeds but i am not sure if they have good coverage in my area after my previous experience.i have heard too many stories of individuals who can never connect to starcomms evdo services after buying the hardware are stuck 80% of the time on 1x speeds.so please any dopc or starcomms users in or around isolo, lets hear from Uthank you

i live in abj but i can tell u that if speed is of d
essence den go for DOPC i can assure u its
not cheap but its a good broadband.

please for ur own sake d DOPC unwired runs on
power 24/7 that is off course if u can keep it powered
each time u're online.

EVDO is good 250kbs but sharin on more comp will
slow speed.

good luck

@montelik

Let know what  exactly you want to use it for. I can help you setup every thing effectively on starcomms without problem. you can test it before payment.

hi
i use DOPCs UNWIRED service and i stay @ oshodi (around charity) & currently using it at mafoluku & d signal strength & quality is full. The speed is quite good , i would say superb 4 individual use
the only setback is sometimes it disconnects or resets (but its what u can live wit Lips sealed)
As per sharing i was using it wit my roommate via a wireless router; d speed was ok but on connecting another person d connection speed stats fluctuating,  wel i gess that would depend on what bandwith you're suscribing to,  i used d Wimax Sundown package (200/512kps)
Also(very important) u hv to chek d coverage area for any isp u want to use below is a map of lagos showing DOPCs UNwIRED coverage
But make sure u do a good survey before u finally decide which 1 u want
I hope this helps

@poster

right now i am in P.H
i have used both of them and know the differents.

for starcom their service is quite good, but the speed is not paletable. but some time it increases.

for DOPC

this is the current one i am using now.
the service is always not stable, it frustlate, it always timeout, small rainfali, the web acccaralation will no more be connecting, sometime the signal strenght will be abouth 87% but you can not acces web site.

but recently it seems that they have improved. the speed is more better now.
the good thing about them is that it maintains the speed even if you are using multiple systems.

so i wll advice you if your going to use more than one system go for DOPC
but if is only one system go for Starcom

good luck
