I hope it is well scrutinised not just edited and hide stuffs

senator282:
This is most reasonable price for this package but no mtn want to do as they like.

I swear it's fiber fgs

Some eligible customers (+me) got stepped up to 1Gbps at 100k (50% off). I believe this is rolling and would be available to everybody soon. Oya Starlink boiz come and cry , Where is that dude that said 1Gbps doesn't even get 200Mbps upload?

But why can't they sell the 1Gbps at 100k just asking

May he continue to Rest in Peace

yinkeys:
Mtn slashing data now

Where you see that one?

ibietela2:
is that not like 200k??

Yeah but you will make more

ibietela2:
Wahala and I was just planning this o

You can opt for the Business Plan

Oboy all are very terrifying creatures

Gotocourt:
Omorr, that's what I get monthly from my mutual funds .

How much you subscribed?

Don't shift the goal post mate. Yes we know MTN fibre X is asymmetric.
The issue is: You said the 1Gbps doesn't even give up to 200Mbps upload and i said that's false with evidence.

I didn't shift any goal post i was there at a friend's side when we did the test we got 100+ to 200+ that time even the downlink was around 700+ to 800+ hence the reason why i said so

QuoteJust1nce:
Wrong mate. I used that plan and i would get around at least 400 and 600 Mbps at the max. I stopped using it 3 mths ago thereabout:

Earlier speed test: https://www.nairaland.com/7486765/spacex-starlink-internet-experience-lagos/169#139328747

But still not symmetric at 200k you should be having 1Gbps up and down

Omo congratulations o this one no be small feat

As if them go hear am na wow

georgee:
You mean greedy or irresponsible

Perfect word irresponsible

Ayomipoe:
I swear, it doesn't make sense.

If I am buying fiber, I expect the same speed up and down. Why is our own different?
Imagine trying to do a speed test that expects 100mbps up, this means one would have to buy double the plan and there would be no guarantee

Exactly everything here is different cus our ISPs are too greedy

senator282:
Waaat!!! 🙆
Not even 400 or 500mbps
Nawaa ooo.

They're very stingy with bandwidth

senator282:
It's like they did that thing intentionally,i don't really know the reason because whenever i run speed test on my 100mbps package at midnight just to make sure no load on the server, the download speed is always stable at 99-100mbps but the upload speed will first skyrocket to 120mbps in secs and immediately clip down to 45mbps or 55Mbps. This looks like a systemic cap from MTN.

Yes it was intentional they go with asymmetric

Even their so called Gigabit Plan you don't even get upto 200mbps on upload

Didn't consume much this month

senator282:
Any technology that comes to Nigeria will behave like the country. In other countries fibre network's download and upload speed is the same or slightly very close to the speed numbers,but in Nigeria you get half of the download speed as upload speed.

I'm trying to understand the reason behind that like what are they trying to do with the rest of the bandwidth

Debroslink:
0.4ms! Omo

Na Fibre na e no even good that ping supposed dey around 10 to 9ms

QuoteJust1nce:
Quite annoying if you ask me

Doesn't make sense

Virgin things omo love is sweet

georgee:
When are we going to start feeling this

Soon

Starlink V3 successfully deployed to orbit.
What a milestone! Just 26 V3 satellites will add a massive 26 Tbps of network capacity to the Starlink constellation.

Why MTN Fibre is not Symmetric

georgee:
Airtel

I was with Airtel before porting to Starlink

georgee:
So many of colleagues for office dey always cry and swear for MTN Fibre X cos of downtime that runs for days

Starlink still stands out in this regard.

I dey one MTN fibre X thread, na so so lamentation full dia

I can't afford a day downtime oooo. I go cry

I can't stand any downtime, part of the reason i left Airtel

georgee:
I have been using starlink since 2023 as well and MTN Fibre X is also on my street, but the fear of downtime and bad customer service/responsiveness is what's still making me stay with Starlink.

MTN bad customer service and downtime will humble you oo

My Guy has it too but do experience couple of downtimes which can last for days they always tell him they will compensate him but they don't most times

ibawon:
Since joining Starlink since February 2023. I’m dropping them for MTN fibre X for the next couple of months. Starlink really helped when no ISP was up to it. But I’ve been using MTN’s fibre X and they tick all my boxes and more.

I wish FibreX is as cheap as Starlink

Why the need of influencers?

Why not na person wey dey dash una money una go dey compliment

I no dey receive SMS on the line at all
