You mean I should stay close to my router when I get home

The router is inside my bedroom and connected to a Tp-Link 3rd party router to supply network to other areas of the house

Abeg which type of TPLink you dey use i want bypass my Starlink router as it has very weak coverage even on 2.4GHz

senator282:

This is a DNS issue.
You can try Cloudfare DNS plus Google's DNS as backup. Been using this for months and it works fine

Much better after tweaking DNS

senator282:
If you have good speed and your streaming is poor,then the issue is from the streaming platform. Like my twitter app videos don't play smoothly but other apps are good.

The thing dey vex me i even try MTN and same issue

I still don't understand why i have good speed but my streaming is poor

senator282:
Starlink users ,whats the update on starlink madness recently,is it normal and reliable now?

E done turn Airtel evening hiccups

Nollie254:

The other day i came across a news where the minister of communication in Ghana announced that MTN fibre pricing in Ghana has drastically reduced. The government intervened and got the prices down. The plan that caught my attention was the 300Mbps plan that now costs approximately 54k. If we had such a plan in this country, most people would prefer to use Fibre, given how slow and annoying Starlink has become in places like Abuja, especially during the day.

It got me thinking about the useless government we have. The only thing it is good at is taxing these companies to hell, and in return, these companies pass those cost to us the customers.

They only care about tax and tariff increment cus how can anyone justify 1gbps plan at 200k on fibre ffs

Most people easily forgets how unreliable Airtel is, although it can be subjective.

For instance in my case b4 I found this thread, I tracked my conversation with Airtel CC on X and realized that for about 2 years, I'm almost in their dm every 2wks complaining of bad network.

Even with the work arounds, you cannot deny the fact that Airtel will reduce your quality of life when solely depending on them.. Because tell me why '3G only' will give more speed than 4 & 5G in the evenings especially. And the 3G only is unreliable for streaming 🤦🏾‍♂️

Yeah and we all experience this one way or the other

brightk:
they want you to move to higher plans with network priority

But it's not even about speed it's long packet loss

Samxie:
It's so annoying, sometimes I want to pull my hair out. 😩

Elon is so greedy now onboarding many people without prioritizing network congestion unlike before

NSEstudent:
I used to say this until MTN became perpetually unreliable in my location. I know when they were working they were better than Airtel by far but they experienced more downtimes for me when I was using their broadband bundles compared to what I have so far experienced with Airtel ODU.

Overall, we don't have active consumer protection. If not, all these networks would be reliable as they would otherwise be paying huge compensations for all these prolonged outages we always experience here.

Omo Airtel are more notorious for outages even when their network seems ok generally i have been to many places but i found MTN more reliable than Airtel

Unfaized:
Airtel is notorious for being very unreliable. That's the reason people are going for mtn.

Mtn offers stability, and if they sustain this ODU campaign, they'll give Airtel a run for their money.

And they have strong 5G seff

Starlink is so terrible lately so many packet losses

Tover:
Lazy ppl too many for here , the first guy dat messaged me the first week I got my odu, I sent him 2k lol.... No one dey message me again because what I will say to you , U go block me asap

Hhh

dustmalik:
I have used a little over 1TB so far. No throttling yet

Good news

dustmalik:

How much data you consumed so far

johnnyholtby:

Na night this thing dey happen. Past 2 nights now

Exactly wetin Airtel dey do me before every night network go slowdown

This is my second ODU, and I enjoyed using the first one so much that I decided to get another. 😄

Since they’re currently on promo (from ₦40,000 down to ₦25,000), I figured it made more sense to use my ₦25k to buy another ODU instead of paying for another subscription.

One thing I noticed, though, is that Airtel seems to have improved the ZLT network. On my first ODU, Band 7 always gave me the best performance. But on this new one, I couldn’t get more than 7 Mbps download speed at first.

Out of curiosity, I enabled all the available bands, and boom! 🚀 My download speed jumped to a minimum of 47 Mbps. That’s a massive improvement.

Has anyone else noticed this on the newer Airtel ODUs?

Them no dey call you ni they're spamming my line for ditching them

johnnyholtby:
Starlink has started again

So annoying Starlink don start to dey behave like our ISPs

Are you guys having network issue with Starlink this night?

dustmalik:
Surely, i will test it to its limit.

I trust you na you dey always run these stuffs
