I know...he said MBps and Mbps are different. I never mentioned Mbps, I said MB/s. Hence, I told him MB/s and MBps are the same thing.

Smile 4G LTE is one of the worst network you could use if not the worst. They are so overpriced, possess a terrible customer care and their data tariff is one of a kind. Online CC? Don't waste your time sending mails, they won't reply...Live chat? You can finish 100GB before they would even not come online...Offline CC? There be rude humans. Regarding their data tariff, a 100mb usage can be multiplied up to 4.8GB usage depending on the speed. A'ight, what the actual hell? Is it just me or are they comparing their data tariff with vehicle speed/fuel usage? undecided

Its MBps as you saw on the screenshot... I have cropped the top part so you can see it better here ✔️

The network was blazing so much at the time but it was fluctuating to 12MBps, 15MBps to 18MBps... around that... So I had to use my video recorder and record screen to capture the Max speed cool

The greatness of Swift.... Doubt any other in Nigeria can deliver upto even a Quarter of these epic Speeds smiley

Is there something sinister happening to my modem that was unlocked 2 years ago. Every 6 months, it seems the guy that unlocked it has programmed it to go brick on me. He claimed its normal and I have to always bring it to update the unlocking. Please save me from being held captive. Image of the modem below.

I can't say if he's held you captive but it seems so. From what I know about devices like this, what you're currently experiencing is highly unusual. I think you should call up someone else who does modem unlock and ask for a forever-unlocked deal.

Perhaps things have changed from when I knew about modem/MiFi unlock and all that (2011-2013) but this is what I think: I think you should speak with someone else.

I don't know where u get this speed from on swift oh. I stay around the MFM part of Lagos around onike and the network is crappy. I have data but can't even stream the champions league match. If it's working for u then I guess u're lucky.

I don't have such luck, might head back to spectranet.

Re: Subscriber Options for UNLIMITED Internet - WORTH IT? by Controller360: 8:57pm On Apr 26, 2018
Who else is always having one ish or the other while trying to top-up or subscribe on his/her account on Ntel... Yesterday the thing was just giving one error message when I wanted to pay online...

The last time there was even 500 naira in my account and wanted to do night sub, tried for like 15 times, it wasn't successful... Man give up con sleep... I now woke up in the morning to an email from them saying the subscription was successful... That night got wasted

The speed i mentioned is quite average considering certain factors ..
