Phones › Re: Is Glo 4G Mifi Worth It? by bigl: 3:09pm On Jun 06, 2019
vision202020:
Please would like to know if its worth it to buy the glo mifi?
I got a Redmi Note 7 but it doesn't support Glo 4G. Now thinking of buying a Glo 4g Mifi to augment the deficiency. I am a glo subcriber and the 3G network is bad both at home and office.
My location is Abuja
Be mindful of the bands supported by the mifi.

Now, there different between 4G and 4G LTE, so buy mifi that supports 4G LTE.

And also, i'll advise u go for airtel mifi (alcatel mw40) which supports almost every band in Nigeria and outside.

I use it personally and it works with mtn, airtel, ntel, etc and its super fast! Just google the name.

Try get the used one for cheap and find a way to unlock it (which is what i did)

dadavivo:
don't let people who say 5G go chop data 5G go chop Data.

I went to YouTube to hear from people who are already using it and what they are saying is,

if you want to download e.g 1GB movie from the Internet on 4G it will take 30-40 minutes but on 5G it will take 5 seconds.

Now the difference here is the timing of the download. On 4G 1gb will be deducted from your plan while on 5G 1GB will be deducted from your plan also.

It's like downloading with 3G and 4G LTE. Same 1GB will be deducted for downloading same file but the difference is the timing. 3G might take 1r 20min to complete while a proper 4G LTE will take 30-40 minutes to complete. But 5G will take 5 seconds.
Yeah except 4G LTE won't use 30-40mins to download 1gb bro! Its usually 5-12mins!

I use a 4G LTE mifi (alcatel mw40) and used it with both airtel 4G and mtn 4G, is super fast!

Please engineers , experience car owners and car dealers. Which engine oil is the best for tocumbo toyota Highlander 2005 ?
Well, i'm not an expert like Gazzuz, ikenna but any vehicle manufactured around 2002 upwards, especially toyota brand should run on fully synthetic oil.

The likes of mobil 1 (thats 5w 30 or so)

Search for gazzuz on nairaland. He is an expert
Computers › Re: Will Adobe After Effect And Premiere Pro CC 2018 Work Well On HP Envy X360 by bigl: 6:08pm On May 31, 2019
shegsone:
Thanks for the input bro, the processor speed on the spec of the system was written 1.8GHz to 4GHz so its getting me confused, cos i don't know why the processor speed has to be written in range.

I don't know what you mean by "skin down your windows"
Yeah. The lower no means when the computer processor is idle and there is no demand for power, it stays at 1.8ghz and of course, use less energy which in turn means, longer lasting battery.

And in reverse if for instance u open after effects or some high demanding software to get some stuffs done, the processor senses the need for more power and might run as high as 4ghz (provided your cooling system/environment can allow that without over heating).

They call it turbo-boost or something.

Anyway, skinning down means, removing stuffs u don't need that comes pre-installed with windows. Bloatware or whatever they call it.

I use tuneup 2014 to get all that done and it does it effectively so u have a windows that run only what u want it to run.

One more tip: pls stay away from mcafee antivirus or its other cousins: they hog your processor.

If u need more info about adobe softwares or other stuffs, hit me up on whatsapp: 0803 431 1147

For the video editors and heavy animation producers in the house, please will Adobe After effects and Premiere pro CC work well on HP Envy X360 15 Intel Core I7 8550U (16GB RAM,512SSD,4GB NVIDIA GeForce) system without dragging.
Why not. As long as your windows 10 runs fine and it should.

Just ensure when u are editing, always put your system on high performance mode (battery setting) cos your processor is built to conserve battery (that's why u have the U at the end of your processor specs).

Ram is fine and you have a very good gpu as well!

U might try to also skin down your windows

Just tried it now on my main mtn sim and its working.

I think airtel has given them a run for their money with the binge plan: n350 for 1gb and N500 for 2gb!

But can i re-suscribe as many times as i like after exhausing the data?

tunjilee003:
This year January I've just gain admission to study at kwara state polytechnic. Formerly, I was living in Lagos with my parents...

My dad told me I'll be staying with his siblings including his grandmother in ilorin....

I wanted to reject the idea of staying with a relative but i had no option than to oblige to his decision..

Ever since I started staying with them they usually complain for no reason all the time.. A times they complain I eat food fastly or they Just bring things that are not idealistic....

Most of the time I'm always depressed, I don't like being a liability...I feel like moving out....i need freedom....

Pls help a brother, your advice is hereby welcome.......
Endure for a lil time while u double-tripple your hussle; raise money and get your own place; your father will talk and rant, just don't get angry but ensure u do your thing.

As a guy, its gonna help u later or else .... you are caged forever!

iClef:
At night, I love using Airtel's 500MB for ₦25. As a heavy YouTube guy, 20GB can't serve me for a month. Too many hours of educational videos to watch.

So, I tried using my usual 500MB for ₦25 but realized it has been reduced to 250MB. What is wrong?

Which network should I use now?
Eeya, i was equally mad at them before. That night plan thing can kill if one gets up every night cos of cheap internet.

They've replaced the night thingy with a Binge plan and i think its pretty fair. Atleast, I can use it anytime of the day until 1159pm of that day i suscribed for it.

U get 1gb for N350 and 2gb for N500.

I've suggested to them via twitter to work on 3gb for N600.

I hope its implemented.

QueenVaji:
I have been wondering about this for sometime and the reasons behind it... Most first sons are not always smart... Could it be from there careful upbringing or what... Our first son is a very good guy.. But somehow his youngers brothers are doing big things... Is really making me feel bad... Our last born is talking marriage now... Not like its a big deal to get married... But then i feel very bad for our first born.... He has achieved nothing apart from a useless bsc/nysc cert
Woos woos, wobi!

I'm 1st born and doing very fine! Now, that's to tell u, u are wrong.

It all depends on the upbringing!

I'm a 1st born and 1st son and i'm doing fine! I'm gainfully employed and also run a good business!

Meanwhile, i'm glad to tell u that we are not created equally to achieve certain things in life at same time so stop using those stuffs as yard sticks!

Family › Re: My Father Does Not Let Me Drive His Car Is This Normal? by bigl: 5:29pm On May 14, 2019
LOSKYXANDER:
So I'm going to be 24 by July. Immediately after my secondary education, just before i got into the university, I mounted pressure on him to send me to a driving school (he was reluctant about this and I didn't have money to sponsor myself) that was in 2012 can you imagine that it has been 7 years!!! After driving school, he kept on giving excuses concerning getting a drivers license. Kept on postponing the application, he would say things like "when you come back for the next holiday bla bla bla". All this while I was getting frustrated because the driving skills I acquired in driving school were disappearing already. Finally, I managed to apply and get the temporary license (2 years validity) in February this year, hoping that things would change but can you imagine that the license has expired without me using it for one day. It's only on very rare occasions on our way back from somewhere that he would park the car very close to our house gate on our street and ask me to drive the car to the compound (this is usually a straight road without bends and this usually occurs when we have a heated argument on the issue). I just finished service and by God's grace will soon leave the house to go and hustle as a man but I don't have quality driving experience on the road and this makes me feel bad. My dad is 62 and sometimes his friends would stylishly ask me " o boy don't you know how to drive? Look at how your father is stressing himself on the wheels while you balance at the passenger seat". I usually find this very embarrassing.
Am I the only one experiencing something like this?
No be only u. If i told u what a friend's dad told him, u go just keep quiet jeje.

Just relax bro! And get something doing to gather money and get a small clean and neat car for yourself. Just be cruising it quietly and please don't tell your dad when u want to buy it except if you are still staying under his roof which i won't advise.
Family › Re: Brother In-law Marriage Wahala by bigl: 12:39am On May 14, 2019
nosigho:
Nairalanders I need help, my brother in-law(my wife's Eldest bro, older than me too) is getting married and I was levied to pay a certain amount as support for his wedding because he had spent most of his funds for planning and the bride’s family had various outrageous demands he had to meet. The issues is I have several commitments like, I have my parents and siblings to take care of, coupled with the fact that my son will be starting school this month (which I postponed because of low funds) and my wife just graduated from the university(yet to go on NYSC and has no job, I foot all the bills in the house and all her expenses) I am about to tell my in-laws that I don’t have the said amount to give (I was levied #40,000) I want to give them (#10,000). And this will further inconvenience myself and my small nuclear family. What should I do? I need your advices
Send them the 10k and politely let them know that you wish to do more (even though i won't advise you to na) but due to family commitments here and there, you can't afford more than that 10k.

And let them know that infact its part of your kids' school fees which wasn't complete in the first place but you will have to refund and also complete before they resume.

Hope you get my point? I am also married and i don't take such bullshits!

The husband to be should sort his own problems and not enburden you!

bravesoul247:
is this majorly for 4G devices only?
I'm not sure but if you are not using 4G sim, u are missing on the speed.

Its better to get a 4G sim and a wireless 4G LTE mifi. I use that of airtel (alcatel mw40)

I've been using the binge for days! But beware, its validity is 1159pm of that day u subscribed but with a grace period of the next day.

Recharge another binge and it gets added up and u can use!

Bro, I did this and I still have the same problem. Could this be because I upgraded the laptop from windows 7 to windows 10? Both the original versions of Intel and NVIDIA drivers that were installed on the laptop can only work with Windows 7.
Do you think downgrading to Windows 7 would work?

Car Talk › Re: Advice On 2014 Kia Rio by bigl: 8:47pm On Feb 22, 2019
Kia is a good brand and they've been around for a while.

The best way to know if its the right car for u is to read reviews online to know its strengths and weaknesses. And if possible, take the said car for a test drive and listen keenly.

Also, consult a good auto mechanic, not the regular kazeems o! I mean guys with practical experience and also, good knowledge of cars so they can also advise u.

I'll advise u to also consult gazzuz on nairaland.
