People complaining about mtn zapping data should probably get a data counter app. (my data manager works in most cases) and then most importantly 'freeze' play store. It seems to update every 2 days or sooner. Especially when your internet is idle and when you open an app with IAP prices. Lastly, you might want to disable data when you are not using it. Some apps like DU Apps (Battery saver, clean master, etc) download updates themselves before prompting you to 'update'. Better to avoid other apps that use plenty of data. That said I have rolled up 5,9gb data within the last 9mths. And yes I tether to my laptop most of the time. 1 Like 1 Share |

This one as usual will be the theoretical speed. The actual speed will be a far cry from what will be obtainable. Glo and their yeye claims. Don't get your hopes high people. 1 Like |

dongc: ... and what network do you think MTN et al use to access Facebook, Nairaland, or Google servers? Glo-1 and MainOne. They get tons of revenue from all the operators that run data over their lines, even if "their cellular network is slow". Have you seen the number of fiber lines between UK and USA? Or Japan and USA? Each one done by different companies and consortiums over the years. I'm very proud that one private Nigerian company will soon have two self-funded fiberoptic submarine cables. 1 Like |

dongc: Have you seen the number of fiber lines between UK and USA? Or Japan and USA? Each one done by different companies and consortiums over the years. I'm very proud that one private Nigerian company will soon have two self-funded fiberoptic submarine cables. The more cables, the more capacity, the better. For a country of 170+million, we need like 50 cables: several direct to Europe, South Africa, USA, Brazil, China, India, Korea, and Japan. You can't compare Sweden - a country of 9 million, less than 1/2 the population of Lagos - to Nigeria. For those laughing at Glo's cellular speeds, ... what fiber optic network do you think people using MTN use to access Facebook, WhatsApp, Nairaland, or Youtube? Glo-1 and MainOne. What about web hosting, payments processing, banks, email? Glo-1 and MainOne. Glo gets tons of revenue from all the operators that run data over their lines, even if "their own cellular network is slow". *correction* Just got a reminder about MTN's cable: dondada78: |

Most people here didn't bother reading the part where the cable is from Nigeria to Nigeria and mainly to serve oil companies... Nigeria has a lot of under utilised submarine cable systems so our problem is not the infrastructure... None of the 4 installed systems we have is utilised at up to 50 percent design capacity... So this is not news 1 Like |

nextstep: i do not agree that having many makes it better ..main has a capacity of 1280 Gbit/s .. running ten sub marine cables of 40gbsits does not show improvement.. companies need to build and utilize almost max capacity..how many fiber lines are running through europe ? https://www.submarinecablemap.com/ The ACE (African Coast to Europe) submarine communications cable is a cable system along the west coast of Africa between France and South Africa managed by a consortium of 19 operators & administrations headed by Orange Atlantis-2 design capacity 160 Gbit/s Currently lit capacity 40 Gbit/s SAT-3 has a capacity of 340 Gbit/s while SAFE has a capacity of 440 Gbit/s. The SAT-3 system together with SAFE was built by a consortium of operators .[1] As of 2006, major investors included Telkom Group (about 13%),[2] France Telecom (12.08%), Nitel (8.39%); TCI, a subsidiary of AT&T Inc.
