fotyy: anyone who argues with a fool ends up looking like one i have been on nl for far to long to continue wasting energy arguing with single minded idiots who are not looking for solutions, but 'winning' meaningless internet arguments who needs to venture into an echo chamber? do not assume that my ignoring your rants means you have made a convincing case your betters have told you. instead of whining and disturbing us, go and subscribe to a different network clearly ntel is not meant for you i am still posting this from my modem, with no worries the sort of idiot that thinks that any isp considers modems [a one time purchase item] as a significant source of income over actual data is just lucky that the internet is a democracy where every idiot is free to spew inanity. if ntel were so bothered about modems and lock in, their modems would not be unlocked. 5 Likes |

fotyy: Based on this and most of your other posts on NL I've seen since you brought forth your problem with the E5372 vis-a-vis the ntel network, I honestly think you're a naturally combative and abusive person — and unnecessarily wordy to boot! Kai. I don't think it works. Yep, that's my opinion, and mine only. For me, it's: good luck with your subsequent posts. ........ P34c3 ..... ... |

oyb: For real? All their modems are unlocked? Wow. If this is true then they can't possibly be the problem. |

You actually just showed why you would block below.. We DO NOT BLOCK... I have the right to present the companies activities to you from a technical perspective and observe QoE from the users here. Btw, Didn't someone here ignorantly lay claims stating Ntel doesn't try to make you buy their own mifi? Well now you see your assertion was wrong ... I am making statement of fact, not assertions that are not factual. That someone DO NOT work for ntel.. The above quote is a bunch of crap! First Ntel nor Spectranet nor swift nor smile or other networks don't manufacture devices ! They just have partnerships with device manufacturers like ZTE, Huawei etc which lock the device to the network and may provide customised firmware on the device until you provide an unlock code and/or flash/install a different firmware on the device. But when it is unlocked it becomes free to use and nothing, I mean nothing the network can do apart from blocking the IMEI from connecting to their own Network!! They can't! I repeat they can't prevent or block the unlocked modem from working on other Networks that supports the band .... FYI, when you buy a device, you have a right to lock to your network. The meaning of locking is that you can actually disable bands that are not supported by your network among other things. On your claim that nothing can be done by the network, well you can use FOTA to provide an upgrade to your devices (and you have a right to upgrade devices), which brings them back to normal state it was before people go to unlock them, hence the FOTA can lock the device back. so please know this can happen. Now to put more holes in that crap shenanigans theory, why would Spectranet block the device from connecting specifically to only Ntel?? Yet the same Spectranet unlocked device works perfectly with Swift, Etisalat 4G, Smile and MTN 4G which supports the Huawei e5372 bands? Or has Spectranet, Swift, Smile, Etisalat and MTN suddenly merged and no longer competitors? - device procured by Telco are significantly different from their open market counterpart. Thank you. let u move on by your continuous patronage. fotyy: |

Loool. Wow I didn't know this thread had been popping since. I'll advise my people to just unlook. We've been too long on nairaland to engage in this type of inane conversations. Nobody owes anyone a dot on this forum by way of response so just chill. |

tivta: Yes their hardware are all unlocked. The ones who sold universal router that works WITH ALL network in Nigeria unlocked, sold mifi unlocked, sold phones unlocked, has decided to lock just one random 3rd party mifi model. Just that single model, and not for every unit sef. Because mine works, oyb's unit works, dudwu's unit works etc. We have immunity. All other models work. They just don't like that particular model belonging to certain people on their Network. End of gist 3 Likes |

fotyy: Please, you have stated your Spectranet Mifi challenge, unfortunately no one has a solution to it or seems to understand what you are talking about. I guess you just have to move on and seek for solution elsewhere. You are heating up this thread and I would not like to it degenerate further than it is already. So, nah beg I dey beg U...... quench your Spectranet Mifi challenge talk. - it is not needed. -people in here don't understand what you are talking about. |

fotyy: Please do not quote, mention or address me again. I have no desire to be the subject of your psychosis. I already conceded victory to your warped sense of superiority of madness and even APOLOGIZED to you for replying you. Having not mentioned you henceforth, I do not expect you to continue quoting and insulting me which you have done time and again. Please respect your boundaries. Neither the members or Ntel handle here is able to assist you, so I do not know what else this thread has for you to warrant these lengthy outbursts. Just stop mentioning or addressing me. Leave me out of it. Thanks |

oyb: Incidentally I thought it was a legitimate issue. Given that I once had that challenge with that mifi which I even made a thread for here : https://www.nairaland.com/3689484/e5372s-601-wont-lock-4g-mtn It was a MTN sim that was giving me issues then, so much that they even sent engineers down to investigate. It was what made me miss the point, but we live and learn everyday. |
Re: Subscriber Options for UNLIMITED Internet - WORTH IT? by tivta(m): 8:05am On Jul 11, 2017 |
@ntelassist Is your nova phone unlocked? If so what are the full range of bands it supports? I am very interested |
Re: Subscriber Options for UNLIMITED Internet - WORTH IT? by tivta(m): 8:10am On Jul 11, 2017 |
I don't blame the guy complaining, N12500 is a lot of money in this recession, the best advice is to count it as a loose, learn your mistakes and move on. I mean if your phone was stolen would you go to the police station to report? I mean Nigerian police station? You just move on and take better care of your phone next time. Yes stolen phone is not quite the same with this BUT people like me have lost far more than 12500 to mobile operators due to poor service. Life goes on. |
Re: Subscriber Options for UNLIMITED Internet - WORTH IT? by 4llerbuntu(m): 10:37am On Jul 11, 2017 |
tivta: I'm not sure you understand the scenario. How is the Telco responsible for a defective Mifi they didn't sell? If your phone stops getting signal today, is it MTN fault? The data and sim works fine. If the Telco says you should buy their own devices that they tested and can support, we will accuse them of all sorts. It's funny because now it seems I'm defending Ntel that I'm always criticising, but facts are facts Like I said, the issue isn't a new one with that device. I had a similar experience using MTN with it. As for complaining, well if insulting everyone who made the mistake of commenting about the issue is complaining, the world has gone mad |
