Bros I sabi wetin I dey talk na. I reside in Lagos, commute frequently to Ikeja. I have checked their coverage and I pass/ dine where they supposedly have 5g. It either doesn't show up or work. Average of 70MBps in Ikeja, where I live in Ipaja it's even worse, like 15MBps. Abegi, please anyone that has Airtel and has used 5g in Lagos, please let me know the area let me carry my a modem and try it. How can I have 5g router for 7months plus and I have not tasted it.

Starlink is currently down. From the comments I’m seeing on X(Twitter) and Reddit, I believe it’s all over the world

BigDickProblems:
Experienced phone engineers, could you kindly tell me what the issue with my Phone (11 pro max).

To watch a video or play music, I can't hear anything (very low sound it makes) except I put the phone close to my ear or use a Bluetooth device.

Also, when I receive a call, my phone rings with a very low sound (just the same low sound when you play music and video) but I won't hear the person on the other side. I can only manage to hear them a little bit clearer when I turn on the loud speaker.

Today is Sunday, I can't go to a close by market, however, I feel I can get to know from you guys, before going anytime I'm chanced. Thanks in anticipation.

ibietela2:
are you using external router?

easyyoke:
Bro, when did you buy your starlink and when did you report this issue to starlink. I am having thesame issue, but when I unplug and replug the cable like 5 times, it eventually picks. This happens almost everytime I switch off the router. I have to unplug and replug the cable like 3 to 5 times before it eventually comes back online. I have been suspecting that the cable has issues but its been over a year since I bought my starlink so I have been thinking even if I contact support, they may say I should pay for new cable since my starlink is over a year now. When did you buy yours and how long between then and the time you contacted support for the issue maybe I may still be eligible for free new cable too

georgee:
Starlink shock me ooo

Just got below response now.. Daaaamn

Kai.. Im so wowed

My Starlink went offline overnight and I’ve tried switching it off and on, disconnecting and reconnecting the cables at both ends (Starlink and router), I even tried resetting the router but I’m still offline. Whenever the router is trying to calculate orientation, it goes offline immediately and stays offline. Messaged support this morning, took all the necessary pictures and after a few minutes, I got a reply from support that a new cable has been sent to me at no extra cost. Through my Starlink account, I can see they are preparing the shipment.
Hopefully, the cable arrives as soon as possible. Starlink is really trying when it comes to customer support.

Chill out. You'll be fine eventually.

QuoteJust1nce:
Got ya! One other thing I should mention (for other cases) would be that if your Starlink was in the middle of an update and lost power; you'd be in a world of pain. Unless you do one of two things:
1. Unpug the router for at least mins or more, or
2. Do a reset
It happened to me, no be say, dem say! In my case, it would show that it was establishing connection, and then disconnect, saying the cable was unplugged or there was a faulty connection between router and dish. No matter how many times I turned it on and off, and replug the cable, nothing worked. I even waited and left it on for many hours. It didn't work. Until I unplugged it and let it stay without electricity for a while.

QuoteJust1nce:
There is even no need going up to the roof. If you check the Starlink app, Advanced and then find Debug data
You can see the "Cable ping drop rate" under Router submenu. This should be 0% at all times.
If it's greater than zero , it means there is a break in the cable and a new cable would solve it. If it is currently 0% with your old cable,
then a new cable won't solve the issue.

BadMaster:
Have you tried to detach and reattach the cable that goes into the dishy?

HIbreed:
Like I don't understand. Did you pay for it? And will the subscription stop if you don't pay?

BTW, I feel I should let the house know that my Starlink which was shipped from the United States was put on hold in the early hours of Sunday at Port Harcourt sorting center which led to the tracking number refreshing, and now they have shipped a new one from Lagos facility that took almost 14 hours to land in Port Harcourt. Waiting for their call here in Aba today.

BadMaster:
This happens when the shipment originates from Starlink Nigeria, not when shipped from the US.

georgee:
See my data usage from Mid October till now (805GB)

Anything asides unlimited data.. Count me out

fuckboys:
I get double data on this.

300gb for 24,200.

Is more than enough for my monthly needs.

fuckboys:
This is the speeds I get with spectranet in Festac and my router has a 12hrs battery life when light goes out.

Starlink is not for me.

georgee:
I'm sure he meant starlink ethernet adapter and not router

Mightyify:
I just learnt that I would be needing router and it wasn't part of the accessories coming with my order

ask4bk:
I see.
But that's still a reduction in the mtn 5g speed compared to when it came out first and it was getting to over 1Gbps.
From your result, my starlink is even faster in download, though slower in upload.

Shows that mtn quality is going down. This 5g speed you tested now is what a good 4glte should be achieving.

BadMaster:
For 5G, this is poor. 4G in my location performs better than this.

ask4bk:
The speed is great, but who needs all that in day to day usage. I only enjoyed the speed when downloading one game for my ps5 at 300 Mbps and it finished in no time. But I don't do much downloads. Mostly streaming and they use at just 10mbps.

The mtn 5g deal is nice though. With starlink highest I've used in a month is 500gb coz many used it then. What drinks most of my data is IPTV streaming since I stream all my TV, football and movie needs in HD. If the mtn 5g speed is good, then 30k for 300gb is nice deal.

Only problem was that I was in Abuja and mtn 5g speed was like 14mbps or even as low as 1mbps. What kind of 5g is that? How was the speed in Lagos?
