It has been unbelievably slow and crappy. The bad part is that it even affects making calls. I switch off and reboot countless times a day but still! sad And to think I am in Garki, Abuja.
It's gotten so bad I am seriously looking forward to this sim migration thing where one can retain one's number but be on another network!

Am not a fan of the truth,but I must confess when it comes to BIS, from my experience so far I'll give it to MTN. Even with my EDGE I still download and browse effortlessly. Glo is also OK but d 3Gb data cap is rubbish. .
Re: Airtel Internet Is Presently Slow And Crappy by Peterboy1(m): 12:26pm On Mar 09, 2013
defemz: Has anyone recently noticed Airtel internet connection running abyssimally slow. From my present location here in Kaduna, their network used to be blazingly fast. But recently noticed their 3.75g turned crappy, i mean really crappy. I first observed this immediately glo blocked their bis channel on pcs and smartphones, felt the mass exodus of subscribers back to their network is overwhelming their infrastructure . Is my current experience an isolated one or is it general?. So nairalanders, lets hear your Airtel present BIS browsing experience at your present location.

its the same here in Enugu very slow atimes no network i tire 4 dis networks

nt so terrible in my area

Re: Airtel Internet Is Presently Slow And Crappy by romero(m): 12:43pm On Mar 09, 2013
It is not as worse as screamed by many. It only flunctuates sometimes. Temporal or permanent solutional advise: 1. Change ur network mode from 3G to 3G&2G. Wn 3G fails, 2G sustain ur browsing.tt is wn u see ur 3G changes to EDGE or in some cases GPRS. I sometimes personally force network search by quickly change from 3G&2G to 3G and immidiately back to d latter.

Airtel network is damn slow,crappy it has been giving me headache for the past 2days now...i thought they are the best
Re: Airtel Internet Is Presently Slow And Crappy by Daraplato(m): 12:53pm On Mar 09, 2013
I know the reason why. Since last year december, some guys have cracked a code to get unlimited MB on Airtel which would work on any mobile platform i.e Android, java and blackberry. Some succubus even buy new airtel sims to use this code. It's not Airtel's fault, it is the amount of people who use their servers. Thanks

I am in Lagos. My Airtel internet connection used to be very good, very fast but since the past 2-3months it's been very messy, very bad. I have decided to switch to some other internet connection(Swift or Spectranet) by next Monday cos Airtel's recent poor internet is now affecting my business.
