Which part of Abuja are you getting Glo 4G?
Re: Glo 4G LTE Speed Test by honsule(m): 5:11pm On Oct 20, 2016
I bought the glo 4G LTE Sim for #2,100. And I was given 2,000 glo recharge. Technically, I bought the Sim #100 bucks.

I got mine last week too. But the Glo agent didn't explain it to me properly. He told me the sim swap would cost me #2,100, without letting me know that the #2,000 would be credited to me as airtime. So, i told him that's crazy, and walked out of the office and bought a new 4G sim from those guys outside of their office, since i only use Glo for data purpose.

This is what happens when an employee doesn't have the right attitude to work.

That band is quite uncommon in a whole lot of 4G devices.

You can't always trust the specs for mtk devices online. Just Open dialer app, then type *#*#3646633#*#*, now enter 'BandMode', and Choose the Data Sim, you will then see the list of LTE bands. The ticked ones are the one your phone supports.
Re: Glo 4G LTE Speed Test by honsule(m): 5:38pm On Oct 20, 2016
If only I can tick Band 28 on my phone, I guess Glo would have work.

Where in Gudu exactly are you getting Glo 4G? Is it also available around that Gudu market area? I want to drive down there later in the day, to see if it's my device that is simply not seeing the coverage at locations I've searched so far.

Also, do you have Huawei E5573s-606 for sale, or you know anyone who wants to sell theirs, or anywhere i can get the fairly used one?

Hello guys, so yesterday i swapped my glo sim yesterday for the new 4G sim. I paid N500 (100 for the sim and 400 credit) and i was told to wait till this morning to activate it because their system is down (shocker undecided ). I use a samsung galaxy s6 edge plus and i live in Ajah so i meet the requirement for having a 4G enabled phone that meets the networks band 28 (700) and also being present in one of the locations that 4G is live.

I activated the sim around 8:30 am and i bought the N500 (1.6 gb for 7 days) so i can test run it. I started by doing a speed test and it clocked 4.50 mbps (impressive) so i decided to watch four youtube videos and i must say it did not buffer one bit. i proceeded to instagram and snapchat and all the videos loaded very fast and i decided to do a 4th test which was to download using UC browser and that was when the problem started. I discovered that it was very very very slow and i looked at the signal and alas it was showing a tiny edge shocked shocked shocked . I thought it was supposed to be 4G. It clearly felt like a rip off or a scam and the i did another speed test which was an appalling 0.67 mbps. Through out the day it was showing the tiny edge and i did different tests at different times of the day (see picture) and i must say i am really disappointed. I just hope Glo is not selling dreams (never really a fan of glo as i use spectranet mifi).

I dont know if other people have a experience with this supposed 4G LTE. If you do kindly share your experience.

4.50mbps impressive Lawd!

Sorry if you stated this earlier and I missed it... but which is the specific model of your Spectranet MiFi, please?

I have the E5372s-601 (also Spectranet branded,) and all specs I've unearthed do not point to support for Band 28. In the meantime, I'm yet to acquire a Glo 4G SIM for me to test the E5372 myself. So, TIA for your feedback.

Also, waiting for the result of your speed test on that full signal strength.

The E5372s-601 doesn't support band 28, but Huawei E5573s-606, which Spectranet also issues, supports band 28. That's why I'm looking to get one myself.

I understand Apple integrates LTE networks with OS updates on iPhones. But have you personally used Glo 4G LTE on your iPhone? if so, how is the experience so far?

Yes i used it on an iphone 6plus. Speed test was 35mbps download but upload didnt finish before data expired. I had about 50mb left then. Etisalat too was ok but glo speed was better. Attached pix shows all

Glo 4G is a scam. Got a sim yesterday and it's been on my LG G2 4GLTE. It only went to Edge and stayed there. This evening I put 5hat 4G sim into my Infinix HotNote Pro and it calling, chatting. I think I would stick to my other line. Glo is yet to wake up.
no come here dey pour us spit. Lg G2 don't support LTE band 28
