Phucking Bastards. Bad network. We pay about $80 for internet services with a 5gb limit and yet that brich is slow (300kb/sec) maximum! Imagine that bullshit. Electricity should not even be a topic here. We are getting so phucking ripped off. And Ndukwe of NCC just sits down and keeps quiet because he's chopping their money. Cow

Koreans pay as little as $5 for a month with unlimited data plans??

What a massive rip-off. These MultiNationals are just crooks.
GLO all the way.

N8,000 equates to about $52, not $80.

Most of the Tinted Vehicles on the road are Slightly-Tinted from the Factory, so this should not be a problem for most people.

Siena:
Are we talking brand new, from a dealership, or a car imported into Nigeria, as a used car?

Brand New from a Dealership.

Thanks

Hello Car Experts,

I just bought a Brand New Car, but license plate and Registration Papers are not ready yet. I want to know if driving it can warrant any problems with law enforcement in Lagos.

Thanks

@abhosts, i want to ask u a question. If after purchasing the webhosting only plan from another webhost as u suggested and smartweb changes the nameservers to point to it, as incompetent as they (smartweb) are, if they have issues with their hosting services (which they always have) won't it affect my domain itself since they are the ones resposible for changing the nameservers. i don't know if you understood my question?

No, it would not affect your website since it is hosted with a different provider. A domain name and a Web Hosting server are 2 separate entities. Most people assume they are the same because they get them from the same company.

You went about it the wrong way and your approach appears to be costing you.

What you should have done when you discovered their host was not reliable:

1. Purchase a Web Hosting only Plan with another company.

2. Obtain the Nameservers of the new host from the hosting activation email sent to you.

3. Ask smartweb to change the nameservers of that domain to point to the new hosting plan you purchased.

These simply steps would have solved your problem and saved your reputation.

Good News!! I wish them well.

Virtually all the boutiques I have visited in the lekki area do not sell Timberland Boots. If there is any Timberland Seller here on Nairaland with a shop in Lekki, Please reply this post with your shop's address.

Thanks

Their whois clearly states where they are located:

Why don't you contact them? Their website appears to be loading fine.

If Amodu was not given more time, why should he be asking for it? I believe 2 years is enough time for him to prove himself.

Any Unusual spike in clicks and impressions on your google adds results in an automatic ban. If you re-register, you are only wasting your time. You will be banned again the moment you request for your payout.

Nigeria is the best place to live on earth IMHO. Yankee and Jand  become boring when one stays there beyond 2 weeks. They are only good for short holidays and shopping.

God Bless Nigeria

99.9 Percent of individuals that receive bulky Packages Via Nigerian Post Offices are Internet Fraudsters. The Post Office workers most likely mistook your package as "Business as Usual".

Now, that was funny.

goggs:
Ok, the article says 'Glo u[b]nveils[/b] submarine fiber cable' I didn't read anywhere in the article about commercial launch. Remember they said the cable landed and two years down the line, no show. A year ago they said the cable has been launched, one year later no show. Today the  cable has been unveiled. I hope it would be a year before it will be inaugurated, a year after lit, another year activated and a year after that,   

lol.

i recently got a reseller account from web4africa and they didnt send me their namesevers for resellers. and then i try to create a database to import my site and its telling me minimun of 50 characters for password.

please anyone know how to solve these problems

The "50" does not indicate characters. It means that your password must be 50% strong on the password strength meter.

Nairaland is hosted on a dedicated Server. An average config dedicated server cost about $200 per month.

This whole thing is now beginning to make sense. Now "MEND" wants to shed more innocent blood to prove that the cornerstone of the Northern Oligarchs (IBB) that supposedly plunged the Niger Delta into it's present parlours state is "innocent". If IBB is truly "Innocent", what is their-so called struggle all about?

If the so-called struggle was real and not manufactured, should "MEND" not be glad to see a demon like IBB put away?

lumzi23:
To be clear I meant I have gotten 2Mb/s using speedtest specifically. Speedtest is only reliable as general indicator of speed, I think.

I have gotten more than 2Mb/s quite a few times and I believe I have even hit the 3Mb/s mark a couple of times.

2Mb/s is different from 2Mbps. One means Mega Bytes Per Second while the other means Mega Bits Per Second. 8Mbps == 1Mb/s.

So what is wrong in sending your children over to their Grandparent to learn their Native Customs and Language? You guys make it sound as if they are being sent to a concentration camp. Their present age and the length of stay is the only issue that raises concern.

I believe this report 100%.

God Bless Nigeria

You are stealing bandwidth and selling to others! Remember that whatsoever a man sows, he shall reap.

This scenario is not peculiar to Nigeria. Many web hosts in the US bailout on their customers too. What matters is the reputation of the hosting company you are patronizing. That is why you should be cautious of Hosting Companies appear desperate for customers. Most of them do run a business model that only brings money in the short run but are doomed for failure in the long run.

What is it with Nigerians and tokunbo? The buyer could have just added about 200k and got himself a brand new Kia picanto or Hyundai I10. These are cars you can use for 3 years without doing anything except periodic servicing.

Looks like a cooked-up story. The moment Naija women clock 30, they are already in panic mode to settle down with or without the consent of their Pastor. But she is just waking up at age 49?

This is good News. MTN still has the widest 3g coverage in Nigeria but their expensive data plans discouraged many. So with the introduction of cheaper plans, many can now stay connected with their mobile devices.

If you are able to access your cpanel, you should be able to access phpmyadmin. First you must create a Database and User in cpanel, then make sure the user has the necessary permissions to the database.

You could also login to phpmyadmin directly (without visiting cpanel) by using this link (replace "your-domain.com" with your actual domain):

http://www.your-domain.com:2082/3rdparty/phpMyAdmin/index.php

Hope this helps.

2% over a 30 day period is not bad. That means you would get a 24% return over a 12 month period.

This is a very strategic move that deserves commendation.
