People of God. My current Starlink location is the Redemption camp, around Mowe. However I'm moving to Lagos soon, say around Ketu. Is there a possibility of continuing to use it without needing to change address? If not, will I be able to change the address seamlessly? Will I need to pay an activation fee?
Unfaized:
Move first and test in your new location. In most cases you won't have to change anything.
orimion:
Alright. Thanks. I'll give an update once I do
Update: I eventually moved. And everything seems to be working fine so far. I didn't need to do / change anything.

Is it just me or the starlink network has been piss poor for the past few days? Plus why is my dish ALWAYS misaligned by 5%huh

Very good, you’ve given me the motivation to go and activate mine in Ibadan then bring it back to Lagos till this whole restriction is over
Kindly give me an update on this
Re: My SpaceX Starlink Internet Experience In Lagos, Nigeria by SilverG33k(m): 6:50am On Oct 27, 2025
Guys please i have a question

Can i take the entire starlink to Ibadan where there is no capacity issues, activate it there, browse with it for like a day, then bring it back to Lagos?

Will it have any repercussions? I don’t plan on changing the address until Lagos is back and i can now activate the starlink

I want to know if this theory would work, i can’t pay that 160k monthly for 40mbps at all
Re: My SpaceX Starlink Internet Experience In Lagos, Nigeria by johnnyholtby(m): 7:13pm On Oct 27, 2025
Hello. Please does Kuda or Opay virtual card works for starlink purchase and subsequent subscriptions?

The distance between both locations is far, so I am not sure anyone can tell whether it will work or not. You will have to try it and see for yourself.

I have used Opay's physical and virtual cards for payments on the Starlink site.

This might be difficult to answer cos I don't think anyone would endure the stress risk of taking starlink to another state to activate, then bring it back to his or her state of residence. Knowing fully well that it may or may not work after returning to your state of residence. It's kind of risky and you wouldn't want to take that gamble on a device you intend to buy for 318k or 520k.
But like someone above me said. You can give it a try

Just seeing mine now. What the hell is this madness? I bet they want to introduce additional taxes to Starlink owners.

Re: My SpaceX Starlink Internet Experience In Lagos, Nigeria by Galaxyroyp(m): 11:22pm On Oct 30, 2025
I came here to confirm if it's only me. They are even requiring face capture.

Hey guys,

I complained about my internet speed on Tuesday and Starlink sent me a gem 3 yesterday (Thursday). This is the second replacement they are giving me for free. Cannot complain.

My question is, how to install the gen 3 antenna. It’s got no mount and it’s difficult to drive nails through the nail holes

Any reason you don't want to buy directly from Starlink?

No, the process was smooth for me. However, I've not received any confirmation if it's been successfully verified or not.
