I guess bypassing makes the tplink the main router and the starlink router will just be a power source

shocked The speed you’re getting is really impressive. Guess those of us in Lagos will have to make do with what we are getting right now. I’m not even complaining because the speed is a lot better than the swift 4G network(28,670 for 10Mbps) I was using before moving to Mtn 5G(30,000 for 300GB). I would have stuck with Mtn 5G if they had unlimited data at the same price range as Starlink but, alas, they don’t.
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.

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?
what IPTV do you use chief?

Well the speed you’re getting is not bad. How many GB do you sub for and how much do you pay for it? If you don’t exhaust your data before the end of the month, then truly Starlink is not for you.

This is the speed I’m still getting and how much data I’ve used up so far and still counting. everyone at home makes use of it and 2 smart tv’s are connected as well (65” LG & 43” Hisense).
I haven’t experienced any downtime yet so far, even when it’s raining and thanks to our inverter, my Starlink hasn’t gone off since day 1.

I get double data on this.

300gb for 24,200.

Is more than enough for my monthly needs.

Truly, Starlink is not for everyone. If you have multiple smart TVs and other devices that need fast connection, then Spectranet will not serve.

300gb for that price is ok. At least cheaper than that of Mtn going for 30k.

Jesus Christ, what do people do with such huge data bandwidth?

I can only consider starlink if I earn a living from the internet, not a business man who spends most of the day outside his home.

Absolutely! Ever since I've been hooked to their internet service, I can tell you I've been very lucky with them so far.

Try any other bank card (StanbicIBTC, Providus, etc). I understand some have successfully used Verve cards too.
