| Airtel 5G Router Is The Most Useless Router In Nigeria. by Afikoo(op): 8:37am On Jan 18, 2025 |
So I jumped on Airtel 5G Router when my MTN was giving me issue with network and after seeing many adverts from some Nigerians. I did enjoyed it te first month, bit I noticed uploading video was a slow . So I switched to the ultra plan (200GB for 20k). The network has been off and on. This January alonebis the worst I have seen far. It has hampered my work . I believed the reason why people chose Airtel was because of it gives more data . This shit is useless. If I see anyone advertising it near me, I go plank am. Please, I have MTN hynetflex, but I am scared the network might also be poor. Aside starlink, kindly recommend a better network for me

Afikoo:Airtel is worse service provider among the four network providers.To make it even worse they even charge higher with nothing to show. They better up their game. |

I think this is depending on your location.. I use Airtel 4G router and the speed is amazing.. I also use MTN and it's also wonderful here too except if there's general network issue |

Afikoo:It is the most useless network ever. How can a router be restarting every now and then? I gave up on it after one month. Mtn is still better than airtel |

None of these networks are inherently good or bad, except of course for the network that starts with a number which is practically dead. Most times,it depends on your geo-location. I've seen people completely dissatisfied with even starlink.That said, invest in things like signal repeaters and antennas. The boost it gives will blow your mind. For context, I use Glo in my place of residence,and guess what, 3g is faster and more stable than their LTE. That you have a 5g modem isn't a pass to 5g speeds. It could however give you the best of 4g LTE, across all our networks (again excluding the already dead network we all know) . |

Afikoo:I am an independent IT Specialist and i can confidently tell you that your MTN HYNETFLEX is far better than your airtel 5G router, in anyway. |

It depends on your location 😉 Look at what to do; reach out to their office close to you, they will optimize their network in that area. I use their 5G router, the speed is good. On a bad day for Airtel (this is Nigeria) I have universal 4G router in which I can slot any sim. I browse with Airtel and MTN! |

Sorry. What is your state. Where am located, Airtel is the best option. MTN has limitations, Glo is 50/50. |
