Like seriously? yOu call this 4G speed or I'm I getting something wrong? I finally got my sim working after months of waiting... Found out that they need to activate my bundle for the fluctuations to stop. Only to see this speed crawling like 2g


Although I was told that service in my area is undergoing... Whatever, I'll update in the evening if any improvement.

Are you in lag? If yes where did you get your SIM

Heard it is only available in Abuja

What's so special about this NTEL?
Your download speed is approximately 150KB/s (UCBrowser) while I can download with upto 2MB/s with my eMpTy heN here in Sokoto. The only difference I can think of is the prices at which the two sell their bundles

when it comes to surfing the net, streaming and downloading mtn is the best.

From the pics he uploaded you can see his network coverage bar is below average, you shouldn't expect full speed and stop comparing Ntel speed to mtn they are miles apart.

my point is I'm yet to see the speed of 4G from ntel... Others are ok but for now I'm not impress at all.

Lol.... The download speed is too Fast bro.

This is the improvement so far.

But you said network bar in 4g doesn't matter but the signal bar seems to have improved from the new picture.

Jeffy1206:
This is the improvement so far.

Please whats the name of the phone you are using.

When did you get the sim? Which of the bundles did you pay for? Also, how did you get them to activate the bundle, did you go to their office or you called them?

Thanks

jeffy1206 bruv! Reception is bad in your area. You are managing reception from somewhere far away. Just like me. When they cover ur area, you'll get mad speeds. Your is even faster than mine. The same 1 - 2 bars. When u get 3 to 4 bars, expect something alot different.

And yh, I'm in Lagos not Abuja. Cheers!

transcorp Hilton, aminu crescent and at Gwarimpa.

Jeffy1206:
transcorp Hilton, aminu crescent and at Gwarimpa.

I think Transcorp Hilton Maitama, is d only precised locatn i see there. Aminu Kano is a full Crescent of its own while Gwarimpa is more or less a small town. Anyway, thanks alot!

Well, i had 1Mbps, 2 MAX at home. When i went to a properly covered area a few mins later... i was getting 27Mbps.

So dats 200KB/s on 2 bars vs 3.3MB/s on 4 bars. That's a serious mismatch right there.

Btw, are u off bundle. I heard something say it's slower when you are off bundle. I don't know.
