Bro please can you take a screenshot of your complaint, let me try it if they will change mine to V3
I take God beg u
That's not a good idea. They will start to notice the pattern in the complaints. Just compose your complaint and send it to them. They will typically check, and if they find something wrong, they will send a replacement.

I was using Gen 2.

yubiman:
Which one were you using before?

Attached. The first is my message to them and the second is their response.

I wish I saw this earlier. Bought Gen 3 monut for 100k, and did not end up using it because it did not work. Ended up using one of the DSTV mounts in my house.

DStv dish mount works fine cool
Re: My SpaceX Starlink Internet Experience In Lagos, Nigeria by iguita: 6:14am On Nov 03, 2025
My replacement was shipped from Lagos. Not sure if the mount will be shipped from Lagos or from USA. Did not want to order something I can get in Ikeja from USA. Also, I did not order the replacement, support emailed that I will get replacement.

dustmalik:
Any reason you don't want to buy directly from Starlink?
Re: My SpaceX Starlink Internet Experience In Lagos, Nigeria by iguita: 6:17am On Nov 03, 2025
This would be complicated. Was not ready for the trial and error.

ibietela2:
why not check reddit for mount ideas, get a welder to do one for you?

Thank you bro, if they send me V3 hope i will be able to activate my residential plan back, as lagos is congested.
Re: My SpaceX Starlink Internet Experience In Lagos, Nigeria by iguita: 2:28am On Nov 05, 2025
If your account was already active, you will be able to. If it’s a new account/ device, I would know.

Please how else do I resolve this issue

There was an unexpected error authenticating your NIN with NIMC, we are unable to authenticate your identity at this time. Please try again in a few hours.

Have you tried the verification from the Starlink site itself?

Mine went smoothly without any issues, and I initiated the process from the Starlink app. It could be that your NIN is the problem.

The mtn hynetflex router doesn't even need any configuration. Is plug and play
you mean this 4g router?

https://shop.mtn.ng/shop/devices/broadband-devices/hynetflex.html

So I can just buy one now, use a long LAN cable to connect to my starlink and it will work as an extender for better coverage in a different room? How will the speed compare?

Thanks

I use the latest starlink, I think its GEN 3

it seems like starlink will be doing a 50% price cut for plans, I got a mail yesterday so if I understood them correctly, I'll be paying 28,500.
