okay, this is a thread mainly for people in Naija, because i think they are best fit to help me out.
I might be going to Naija in July, and i want to take my laptop with me. the only thing is I will be staying in the village (Imo State), and don't know how the internet thing works over there.
so how exactly can i get internet connection in the village? does it depend on where I am? or? . . .

thanks.

Mtn works there,just get 100 dollars equivlent ,and you will be connected

thanks! but do i have to buy a card? or is there some special set-up?
N150,000?

sorry then

olas2u:

sorry then

i used to be in that section months and months ago, but it has now gone to the dogs. lol

another question.
how long does it last? does it last a lifetime, or do you have to renew it after a while?

That 15k is monthly

this might have changed,because am not in Nigeria,but the prices should be going down as more people are connected

15k monthly? i don't even pay that for internet here in the states. that really hurts the pocket. but then again, i only plan on staying four weeks.
so after a month runs out, you. . .

sorry, i just wanna be totally sure

Depending on what you want,i think the fastest one is this 15k,tghere are cheaper ones,but it will take a longer time for you to open pages

Get MTN fastlink modem for 5K ($35) and load it with 8K ($55) for instant connection, u r good to go 24/7 for duration of one month

and then if i want to renew it, do i buy a recharge card. sorry, just asking. lol

you can see the lastes gist now,the prices are down,if you now charge it with 5k

Sure, u don't hv to visit their office for renewal or activation

Why does everyone on Nairaland always think of scam? Am fed with this  I said if you haveAirtel network signal in your village, I will set u up for F-R-E-E(YOU DONT PAY A DIME TO ME OR TO AIRTEL FOR INTERNET FOR MONTHS).

GOD! what does a brother need todo before I can help someone here in NL for F-R-E-E!  Anyway I have changed my mind its like you prefer paying for internet subscription enjoy your stay in your village.

Get MTN fastlink which goes for N5,000 ($33), then buy N8,000 ($53)MTN worth of recharge card, get a MTN sim too, without an MTN sim, you cannot browse with just the modem.

After getting the sim, insect the sim into the modem, then load the sim with the N8,000 recarge cards you got, then subscribe for the 24/7 monthly plan.

VOLLA!!

All the plan options can be found on the modem template on your laptop once the modem has been installed, so it's as simple as ABC.
