Lagos already at capacity (for a long time now). What does that tell you?
Oh you're in Enugu (residential, I presume); there was even no point for this.

Lagos don reach capacity sinceeee vis-a-vis deployed satellites

QuoteJust1nce:


Yeah just wanted to put it out there to prevent someone from getting the router and then disappointed at their speeds during peak hours.
I have an external router too; but it's mainly to cover dead zones in the upper floor. Most of my devices are connected to the main router.

Gbam... Same connection i have..

To cover dead zones 👍

The speed is not enhanced by the router. You'll get the same speed on the 5GHz (most especially during midnight). I have found Starlink to be incredibly fast at late hours, up to 300+Mbps. But during the day it drops to around 100+Mbps (especially for my area where it's at capacity and I'm on roaming)

U ar spot on.. My speed for Surulere Lagos dey reach 150-200Mbs early hours of the morning and late at night. Drops to like 50-60Mbps during peak periods

It is not router dependent my speed test na direct from Starlink router

udatso:


How do you set it up?

Starlink is plug and play

Just download the starlink app on playstore

Thanks for this insight. I just placed an order and will pickup tomorrow or friday.

House, please i will need guidance on how to go from here...I stay in Ota, Ogun State so i hope capacity here isnt full like Lagos from what i have read so far on this thread.

How do i register for residential and what other accessories do i need to get (wall mount, ethernet adapter etc)

For you to know if your place is at full capacity or not , just go to www.starlink.com and put your address then click check availability.. U will get this info

If u want your network to be felt everywhere around ur apartment (2/3 bedroom flat, Duplex), u will need an ethernet adapter and a 3rd party router

I think the default plan is residential

Finally, my replacement kits arrived today through DHL.

I am back with Elon.

Thanks to everyone who put in a word or 2 while i was off the network

For anyone having issues with Starlink speed being slower after using external router.

Make sure you’re using a good Ethernet cable(cat 5e and above).
Make sure you don’t have a faulty Ethernet adapter(you can check that in Debug Data)

I’m using TP Link Er7212PC with Starlink and 2 MTN routers(one as Backup WAN and another as Access Point).

So instead of getting another router, you can use your old MTN router(use the WAN port, then change connection type to Cable Broadband).

Just make sure you don’t have cat 5 cables in your setup, this is very important

Just dropping my 2 cents

Can i use my MTN 5G (ZLT X20) router as a 3rd party router instead of TP-Link am currently using

If Yes, how?

This lady made this statement on a thread. I would love to know if that's how ladies think so I can also update Elon musk chip in my head with the latest IA

Useless women everywhere

martyns303:


Thanks so much, did you buy the residential or Roam, I have been trying the roam all this while, I decided to try the residential and the initial deposit of N32k actually went through with GTB.

I would have really preferred the roam.

Residential

martyns303:


I have the same concerns too, I have tried both my GTB dollar and naira cards, none is working on the Starlink site, I am considering buying from Jumia but concerned if I’ll be getting support from Starlink since it wasn’t purchased directly.

Try stanbic Ibtc mastercard. That's what i use in paying for my monthly subscription. Gets debited directly

My replacement Router and cord are now shipped.. Expected delivery date is Monday 15th April, 2024

I am so happy.. Plus say dem go dash me 1 month free subscription..

odimbannamdi:


Lol...of course, I know sey no be Nigerian company nau...was just wondering about the capacity issue.

As e be, not sure anyone is complaining about speed unless u get defective kit/cable

odimbannamdi:


Yes, that's the question I referred to, and thanks for clarifying. I understand now. But how is this full capacity situation affecting the speed of the internet service of Starlink? Are users reporting slow or congested service?

Starlink no be Nigerian oooo. Dem don cater for all devices sold directly by them vis-a-vis satellites.. So speed dey Kampe

odimbannamdi:


Good idea. Regarding the emboldened, I was just wondering aloud jare. Please do you have any response to my other questions?

I believe u mean the full capacity question

For each region, starlink has specific amount of satellite deploy to cater for each region/device

So it means that we now have maximum number of device to be catered for by the satellites

For Lagos to av more space, more satellites would have to be deployed

Hope my explanation is understood

odimbannamdi:
The last time I checked the price of Starlink, it was 800k. I checked it now and it is 440k. What is driving the reduced price?

I am asking around to know whether anyone in Lagos sells at this discounted price. Do you think it is a good idea? If I buy from someone, will I get support from Starlink themselves if I have issues in the future that may warrant replacement of parts?

Also, I tried ordering directly from the website, but I can't find my address there. Will it be an issue if I use another address?

Can payments on the website be done using our usual naira card? And how long does it typically take for the hardware to arrive after ordering?

It doesn't have to be your direct home address.. Type an address that is around 5Km radius from your place (This is the way i ordered mine)
Why would you want to buy from a 3rd party when are so sure Starlink has reduced the hardware Kit price?

ibawon:

Baba you just dey disturb your self over nothing. Tell customer support they'll replace it and even dash you one month free sub. I have the extra lying under my desk too

How many days did it take ur kit to ship after it was ordered?

Tuvic007:


Wow, impressive. Some of these foreign companies have nice customer service... If na naija company now, nobody go look your face

If na naija company.. Ahhh, na trouble i enta so ooo with the bad attitudes of their customer care officers

Tonyace25:

My laptops and smart Tvs too dey see 5Ghz

Leave Samsung.. Dem dey play

Starlink shock me ooo

Just got below response now.. Daaaamn

Kai.. Im so wowed

BadMaster:

Most likely a power surge issue and has damaged the router. I have experienced same, and Starlink sent a replacement for free. They have data that would show them what happened to the router, just open a support ticket and they will send a replacement.

If you do find a solution to the damaged one, kindly share with us, as I also have one lying around.

Alright... Thanks for this update.. I will be waiting for their response and share with the house 👍

Can i use starlink without the default router ie using a different router entirely

This my router that has spoilt is giving me sleepless night

IT gurus in the house should help me

I think this website is saying something similar to my question

https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/topic/574814

I think it's the router that is damaged.

I just tested the power cord with a tester, plugged to electricity and it brought out light.. My starlink router is damaged from all indications

Tuvic007:


From the picture you attached I can see that the plug is fused... Confirm if the fuse is still intact, if not, try replacing the fuse

I actually removed the fuse and smelt it, i don't think anything is wrong with the fuse.. But the end of the cable that goes into the router is smelling like a burnt a cable. Even the router power hole is smelling too

I am so confused right now

ibawon:


Them go give you replacement sharparly.

I hope so

I just discovered that my starlink router stopped working this morning

I checked around and found out that power is not being supplied to it

I removed it from the wall socket and discovered power cable is smelling ie burnt

What do i do?

Should i open a ticket or order another power cable

I checked starlink shopping site and culdnt even find power cable there... No be wahala be this so

It is pure madness for a male crossdresser to win best dressed female award. The award is for females and not for crossdressers. The twisted-minded award organizers were mischievously looking for controversy and must be enjoying it now.

By the way, I am not surprised that Morayo Afolabi-Brown is saying this. She has poor sense of value judgement. After all, she once said on national television that she wouldn't allow her husband to bathe their infant daughter. She painted the man as a pedophile. She later tearfully apologized to the poor man live on TV to avoid divorce.

That Morayo na stupid girl.. I would av divorced her via text message if i were husband.. Nonsense

Everyone cannot be wrong!

Olamide has many people saying good about him, he does not need to praise himself. Same with Don Jazzy!


You hardly can hear any good compliment about KWAM 1.

If you that good like you proclaim, you won’t need to be granting interviews. Those people would have stood up for you.

God bless U.. I have never seen nor heard anyone say anything good about this K1.. 99% bad feedbacks from people.. The man must be terribly terrible

I've been using Instagram for a while and I've seen some really really pretty girls.

But now that I think about it, my babe is actually a lot prettier than most of these gram girls.

And that's even when they got the filters on.

Sometimes, I try to push her to these online modeling stuffs.

It takes nothing much other than videoing your face, smiling or eating and stuffs like that.

But she no go ever gree.

Even to snap na wahala. You'll need to practically force this girl to snap picture.

I've never seen anyone sooo pretty and yet so camera shy.

I think she could earn some money or gain some success from these platforms but I just can never convince her to try it.

Becareful what you wish for
