y don't u try internet download manager? It's quite good n usually gives a close idea of d real download rate

Double N:

My location is Surulere,Hope its EVDO covered.

Yeah

Seun:

When they started, the "average" was 300-600kbps and the peak was 1000kbps plus.

Now, the average download speed is much less and the peak speed is 300-400kbps. Shame.

lynxnoon:

flyuche:

ok so then how do u know they're doing upgrades and that its their upgrades that's causing the POOR download speed ?

@ flyUche edit that ur post. EVDO is not yet in Uyo. it's in calabar now but it's not at its peak just like the other states. the higest speed u get in calabar is 120kbs which is nothing compare to what prof and info are getting in thier respective area. For those using I zap u can send free sms to any network (MTN,GLO,ETISALAT, O2,AT&T etc) in the world. check it out. And i gats something for those using the roaming RUIM(0702 buzz me on YIM ejimon902001@yahoo.com. Prof, Info Hon, Dragnet, Dual Raph send me ur starcomms no so i can call u guys. Cheers.

Shush !! , u aint got a Screenshot for it!

@ flyuche are u sure ur friend is not mistaking 1x service for EVDO? I'm in Uyo as we speak and i'm using i zap express card. I have gone round the the whole city there is no such thing like EVDO service here. I'm a dealer of that product so i let my clients knw what dey getting them self into. I'm sure ur friend is using it with the iboost accelerator that's y he feels there is EVDO there. Starcomms promised by the end of this month they will role out EVDO service @ this location. For now calabar is covered with EVDO but not everywhere. .

@packa. alrite.

hayprof:

Shush !! , u aint got a Screenshot for it!

Hayprof wats up?
Men i swear i saw it, just cudnt get a screenshot on time b4 it disappeared
