Its 5G router plan.

You pay 30k, airtel give us a 5G router with 2 options of either speed based or data based plan.

The data based plan is about 20k for 240gb for 30 days

The other option is speed based plans:

20mbps for 20k monthly
40mbps for 35k monthly
60mbps for 50k monthly

Na the 20mbps plan i opted for and i've been using it since December 2023 ....

Bretheren, the speed based plan no dey finish ....

Find below the screenshot of the router and also, my usage for February ... check the date and time for the screenshot on my laptop

If I understand your explanation correctly, at the point of registering for the service, one is expected to pay 30k for the router and additional payment for the specific plan you want? Or you only need to pay for the router at first purchase?

I am asking because you also mentioned that first month subscription is free, so I am a bit confused.

Once u pay 30k for the purchase of the router, 1 month speed based plan comes with it.

So u don't pay sub fees after paying 30k ... i hope that's clear enough?

5pecterGray:

Wow, Really!! Let me check it up. What plan is it

There's not much buzz about it again cos some people bought it but Mtn's noise about 5G no gree people know say airtel offer too dey o

Thanks. One more question. Are you the one to choose the speed based plan to be activated the first time?

BadMaster:

😂 I am not a big man oh... Yes, Starlink Standard plan is 38k and it's quite fast, though not as fast as it was before.

I am not leaving Starlink oh, just want try the Airtel out of curiosity. Starlink is still the best, as far as Nigeria is concerned.

I'm currently on MTN 1tb annual plan. By the time I exhaust it, I will do this one

bigl:
Mtn wan finish my finances ... i will subscribe to 20gb, its won't last 1 week ... i started becoming broke and at a point, my wife dey give me one kain eye whether i dey get another wife outside ... not until she got to know say na mtn ....

Now, I use the Airtel 5G unlimited internet .... speed based ... limited to 20mbps ... and January alone, i used over 650gb (I was carrying some stock footage packs, my wife was enjoying facebook instagram videos, my son streaming youtube 247) ...

All this for 20k monthly .... Waaaaaaay berra than the shege barawo mtn dey do us!

They also have 40mbps for 35k and 60mbps for 50k which i don't need for now!

Sorry o, please how did you use 650GB when Airtel wrote it on their website that the 20K unlimited plan is actually 120GB cap, then 5GB free daily at a capped speed after you exceed the 120GB. So how on earth did you see 650GB to use. Even if you finish the 120GB then used the 5GB per day, that is still a total of 270GB. Abeg I am confused

If you're following just everything writen by the books and don't pay attention, then you'll be more confused than ever ...

The 20k for 120gb is referred to as unlimited plan by airtel (mtn also does that but why is what i don't know)

There's also the "speed based plan", oya repeat after me, "speed", "based" "plan" ... being sold for same 20k for 20mbps ...

The router itself is capable of 5G speed which of course can be up to 1gb per second speed ... if such speed is allowed for same 20k, airtel business will run down... that's why they are giving us a speed capped option of 20mbps for 20k or 40mbps for 35k and 60mbps for 50k which according to them, you're allowed to use as much data as u wish ...

I considered that option of being able to download without any cap so went with that and not the 120gb for 20k ... those people with the 120gb for 20k will experience faster speeds than my 20mbps .... but that 120gb can be used up in less than 2 weeks ...

I hope u get it?

Go to airtel office to confirm and stop reading just any junk they write on their bill boards

I just renewed today sef and here is what i saw on the recharge platform (check attached pix)...

I'll also post again, check the monthly data usage/traffic as at today, wednesday 28th Feb 2024 ...

I'll check to see if i still have screenshot of the past month where i used 650gb and attach

Oh, Thank you for the explanation. This must be the Unlimited EBB plan. Does this work for areas without 5G network too please and you ever done speed test. Do you really get the 20mbps they promised for 20K plan

easyyoke:

Yeah, i think that what they call it EBB.

In areas where there is not 5G, it seamlessly (without u noticing sef), swtiches back to 4G...

Yeah ... i do run the test ... i get 19/20mbps and sometimes, it can come low like 5 mbps but for the purpose of my downloads, sending 4k video files to google drive for clients to download (clients in US/Europe), downloading of some materials/footages for work, it works pretty fine for me...

And for that 20k price, its just the perfect balance between getting more bang for your box and paying less ....

Check this thread for 1 or 2 speed tests i've conducted...

Its not as fantastic as Starlink o but presently, from 28th of January till today, i have used 388gb which is not bad at all ...

Be like airtel has stopped that 20mb for 20k plan

You are right. They have become greedy, which is typical of our service providers.

Well, thank God for Starlink. I only tried the Airtel 20k 20Mbps plan for a month, to see how it performs. Unfortunately, I wasn't even satisfied with it.
