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?

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

bigl:



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.

Thanks bro. Just to be clear, is the providus Mastercard a naira denominated card?

Yes, the naira denominated MasterCard.

DAramis:

Can you give me link to the IPTV? How you go about the subscription and the cost?

Trying to subscribe to one

Kindly contact @Cavendishplex for more details.

We have never had a government more useless than this one. To even imagine I was one of those who supported it initially, it gets me very annoyed whenever I remember.

Hello Guys,

For two weeks now I have been trying to renew my starlink monthly subscription but to no avail. I have tried my naira master card and dollar visa card yet none seems to be working.

Is anyone else facing thesame challenge?

Providus MasterCard works fine. GT bank Naira MasterCard that has always worked for me doesn't work anymore.

100k for 1 terabyte.It will last more than a year or you roll over

It depends on the users. I use more than that in two months. I don't download or play online games, strictly streaming of Netflix, Prime, IPTV and other streaming services.

These people are just idiots, doing trial and error. Why not just scrap the whole thing?

ibawon:

That would be around 70k monthy

This would have been a good time to pay for several months ahead, but Starlink only supports monthly subscription.

Starlink has finally updated their exchange rate. Hardware is now N800,000

Indeed, I just confirmed it. It's only a matter of time before they also increase monthly subscription fees.

pcachuks:
I have a question: I currently use Starlink in Awka and am planning to move to Lagos. Will my Starlink service still work if I take it with me to Lagos?

Most of Lagos, if not all, is at full capacity at the moment, so you may have to switch to regional-mobile plan when you get there.

Hello,I have been using gtb card for the payment of starlink but the card was just declined this evening. Please,is there any other alternative i can use for the payment?

damseremie:


I thought I was the only one.
Does anyone have any other option?
I even contacted GTB Customer Care on Twitter, they keep apologizing and asking me to try again... It still doesn't work

I just confirmed that GT bank Naira MasterCard doesn't work for Starlink payment anymore, but I was able to pay with Providus Naira MasterCard.

ibawon:

Boss I humbly, I repeat! I humbly ask for the replacement Ethernet dongle. If I can get it I go dance.

Boss, I have promised someone else way before I received the replacement. I am sorry.

The government is wasting its time and resources.

Nonsense rubbish

I have been using GT bank Naira MasterCard and it has always worked for me. You may also try Providus Cards, they also work for Starlink payments.

BadMaster:
So, I have been using Starlink since February last year, and it was excellent. I use to get speeds up to 300Mbps+. After moving to a new location, I observed that my speed really tanked. In fact, I have not seen 200Mbps. Initially, I thought my dishy or cable was faulty, so I asked Starlink support to carry out checks on my kits for confirmation. Starlink support reverted back to me after thorough checks(according to them), informing me that my dishy and cable are in excellent conditions, however, I am experiencing extremely high level interferance. They then asked me to capture my installation and my immediate surrounding. I did as advised.

The thing is, I live directly under a large mast/base station. According to Starlink, the base station is the culprit, and there's little to nothing I can do to improve Starlink service. Though I could try to move the dishy around my roof, but given the proximity, it would probably not change anything.

This is for your information only. In case anyone is experiencing similar challenges.

Update:
Something I forgot to add previously. Aside informing me that my Starlink dishy was experiencing high interference, they also informed me that checks show that there's something wrong with my router configuration (I don't know what this means), indicating that my router and ethernet adapter are needing replacement. So they sent a replacement router and ethernet adapter. However, according to Starlink support, it would not resolve the interference I am experiencing.

Today, I took delivery of the replacement router and ethernet adapter.

Starlink's service delivery can't be compared with our service providers here in Nigeria. If there's an issue with your kit, they will be honest about it, and if need be, replacements would sent, for free.

If you are experiencing challenges and you have done all else to resolve it, feel free to ask them to carry out checks on your kits.

Correct this is good. That means residential is even better. Love this

From my personal experience, in Nigeria, residential or Standard plan as it's now called, enjoy the same or similar speed as Roam or Mobile-regional as it's now called. Standard plan subscribers do not enjoy priority over Mobile-regional subscribers in Nigeria.

Leun:


Results vary as they connect to various networks when online.

For better speed accuracy, use Speedtest.net app or website. You may also use fast.com.

I hope you have splitted the Wifi channels, that is 5Ghz and 2.4Gh.

The worst government we have had in this country. The most useless of all time.

Who buys battery and keep?
Ba3 should be the last in case your plans didn't work out as proposed, you can easily sell the solar panels and inverter

I think the poster meant to say, one should buy a hybrid inverter first, then batteries. That way, you can use the grid to be charging your batteries. Then, when you have enough money, buy solar panels too.

People in relationship in 2024 are trying. I can't do that nonsense.

Joke of the century. You sell it to distributors at 8k. How much do you think it will be by the time it gets to end-users?

amazinghomez09:
I use a 3.5kva in my office with 4 tubular batteries I notice that it works better when charged with electricity due to the load in my officr when the weather is fair then then am sure the batteries will last between 9am to about 4.30pm before we switch to generator however when there is electricity for few hours then we wnt have need for a generator

What appliances do you use with the inverter?

Just imagine the the Sharprite was owned by a fellow African, South African blacks would have started their Genocidal behavior by now. In fact, the authorities would not have approved the store.

If I were to buy this inverter on AliExpress and shipped via DHL, would I have customs issues?

Anywhere there is crime or an opportunity of a crime, an Igbo man must always find a way to be involved.

I use to take this man seriously until earlier this week, when he said some repentant Boko haram members were released because they swore by the Qur'an that they would never return to their old ways. What a joke. Even as a Muslim myself, that's the most ridiculous thing I have heard this year.
