Most of the hynetflex routers sold by MTN do not have the band 40 for spectranet, the older versions do have it but are more expensive if found.

My advice for you is to get an already unlocked router confirmed to do band 40, secondly stick to Huawei or ZTE routers and try and get one that's CAT 6 and above. Cheers

Modified: Alternatively you can also order a decent universal router from AliExpress
Decided to go with the unlocked MTN 5g router. Thanks!

Would advice you don't. 5G will definitely get to your location sooner or later. My location didn't have 3 months back but it has now tho not strong yet plus price of things are going higher, you might sell now and be buying at a much higher price later

Yes It's cat 6 but only the versions with internal batteries are crackable, the newer versions with powerbanks cannot be unlocked yet.

That was in 2020. Dotmac is useless now. I stopped using them some while back. The 17500 subscription is 6mpbs so max speed you should be getting is 700KB/s

bro which do you use now that's better? I'm in Abuja, also is there a trade in for their device and router for pay or how do i discard it

Right now I am generally tired of all these ISPs. Looking towards trying starlinks.

For the dotmac, it got so bad that I had to tell them to dismount the radio and give me my device. They have been trying to get me to connect ever since.

No way to discard it. Just keep it as scrap grin grin. E fit get use one day.

If the Starlink kit price and monthly subscription is not a problem for you, then get it. It gives you absolute peace of mind.

All Naija networks are just trash! Fews day on Swift na hell, network will just disappear for no reason and not reconnect..
Compared to Starlink that doesn't blink.. expect for few seconds when Cloud really thick. But that's months ago.

You may try MTN if Fiber broadband is available. Or 5G

U can also try Airtel 5G if it's available in your location, though they can be annoying sometimes with no valid reasons

Anyone here know anything about Airtel fiber plans and its speed? My security informed me that Airtel came by, took his info, and they said they were deploying fiber (FTTH) to my estate, and that the first month will be free of charge. So I Googled and also went on Airtel's site but couldn't find any info about their fiber service.
Re: Subscriber Options for UNLIMITED Internet - WORTH IT? by drmuchin: 4:20pm On Dec 17, 2023
Gurus in the house, how does fibre broadband work? All those cables being laid underground how will it connect to your phone or devices?
