I didnt say its slow but when compared,MTNs 2600mhz band beats glos 700mhz,also Band 28 isnt compatible with many phones as i said earlier,does tecno w3 and infinix LTE phones have band 28?
You don't seem to know what you are talking about. How does band 7 beat band 28? The only advantage band 7 has is its popularity among 4G devices, not that it's better in any way. In fact, band 28 has its own advantages over band 7. Unlike band 7, band 28 travels way farther, and it penetrates walls far better than band 7.

In case you didn't know, in radio spectrum, the lower the better. Therefore, 700mhz is better than 2600mhz.

It is the E5377Bs-508 4G "MiFi" that was recently discounted and sold for N5k.

I think the "Bolt" is a 3G "Stick modem," but I haven't handled it.

Yeah I'm familiar with the Bolt 3g stick modem.. Thought it was the same one you were getting 4g on, when I first saw your screenshot.
I'm interested in that 4g MiFi oh... Is it still in the market / any idea where I can get it? Thanks

That discounted 5k price was by Glo directly, and I got mine from them - as did a number of folks who reported it on this forum, even before I got to pick mine up.

What is amazing here? This is normal 3G on Mtn.

See MTN LTE on a bad day. On a good day it is between 30-40mbps.

It also depends on which side you woke up in the morning, or how many colanuts/gworo/orogbo you've had in a day, lol. grin

Seriously, it probably depends on when, what day of the week, and where you are with respect to any of our networks. (Besides, Fast concentrates strictly on streaming, no fluff, if one reads their philosophy. Speedtest by Ookla is usually less conservative.)

The attached are also with Glo's 4G, same day. And my transit time is not even the best...

Despite the high speed from mtn, when streaming live, it keeps buffering why.?

But in glo, even with 7mbps I stream with rest of mind why?

On the contrary streaming with MTN is way better , I can stream at 720p without buffer compare to NTEL where streaming at 360p still have some buffers. As per streaming live, it all comes down to the quality of the feed. If the feed is bad even at 100mbps download speed it would still stutter.

Delete the Apn and input manually: Globacom, gloflat flat flat. It may help. Try and contact their customercare, though they are very annoying sometimes.

Glo might offer unbeatable data prices but their speed is pathetic. This is from Ogba Lagos. It's 3G btw

I'm really surprised that glosecure is even connecting at all on Glo 4G LTE. I have up to four Glo 4G Sims, and none of them would connect on 4G once i change the apn from gloflat. But on 3G, almost all apn connects.

Though it's been two weeks since i used Glo LTE, maybe that has changed. I'll try it out when i get home.
