Can’t recall, check online it should give you an idea of the price
Will like to confirm if this is the particular type you went for... I was it as generic online and was skeptical.

The deployment of this service has been very slow from MTN

Hopefully they hasten up the pace so more people would join

Where I live, they've covered a huge area in just a month. In fact the agent I was in contact with had initially told me it'll be until January before it'll be live, she was shocked when I informed her that they've laid the cables and gone live all under a month.

Nice post!
I’ve been trying to understand Google AdSense better and this explanation really helped.
The part about placement and viewability improving RPM makes a lot of sense.

I’m still experimenting with different layouts, so this guide came at the right time.
Thanks for sharing! 👍

Please how long does your power bank power your router and can I know the particular brand and capacity? Thank you
It lasts approximately 14hrs if fully charged. I can imagine what 50kmah PB will give me. The brand is attached below. Just checked jumia, its no longer available.

Lol. Una never seen anything once mtn are done having good numbers of subscribers first thing they'll do is to increase the subscription and give you people shity network.

Black man will ever do something good that will last for a long time? Never

Instead black man will do something horrible and expect to milk the people dry.

God bless starlink

God bless Elon musk.

Since the day I know starlink I've known peace concerning internet.

Imagine after my subscription date has ended I can still use starlink for days untill I'm able to re new my subscription. No Nigeria network can give you that.

God bless star link


You sound like Uncle Ruckus

Too small.

At 3.7v that's just 32.56wh and most routers draw 12w, so less than three hours backup time.
It lasts 7 hours

That's really bad. Nigerians keep complaining about the government, but most Nigerians are even worse than the government. I was even considering recommending him to someone, that's how he would have spoilt my reputation and made me look like an accomplice.

There are quite a number of estates using it in Abuja, including Games village.

Airtel came to my estate in November last year and shared expression of interest forms for us to fill. After filling it and submitted, we didn't hear from them again, little did we know that the exco of the estate informed them that we weren't interested in the service, same thing they said to MTN. I found out yesterday from an MTN staff. Though I will raise this issue in the next Estate meeting, because I don't understand why they're behaving like witches who don't want progress for the estate.

Mtn fibrex, once you have an issue, they won't attend to you o,

My router has been here for over 3 weeks, not working, they have refused to respond to all queries. Called, visited their office, nothing was done.

They will install for you and disappear.
It's only to advertise they know o . Their service is very very bad. If you have an alternative pls go for it.

I am having the same problem now.
It was installed last friday and then activated on Saturday morning.

I used it for an hour or so before it went off.
I call 217 immediately expecting they might send someone over to fix it on Saturday or today. But nothing yet.
The thing is just idle here with the LOS indicator blinking red.

I guess good customer service isn't their priority.
Whats the use of having a good internet only to wait a decade ifor diagnosis is things go wrong?🤔

Really terrible from them.
I've been unable to use mine since Saturday.

Talking to CC feels like I'm talking to robots now.
All of them have been programmed to say the same thing.

Saw thier advert while watching EPL today and nearly swore for them.

The installer guy now cuts my call sef.
I wonder why nothing works in this country
Re: MTN FibreX - Installation, Speed Tests, Availability, And All You Need To Know by Chiderao0972: 9:59pm On Dec 03, 2025
It seems calling out MTN on Twitter finally did the trick.

I called them out yesterday evening and they requested my details.

Very early this morning, I got a call from an engineer, and he came to diagnose and resolve the issue.

It seems the installer did a bad job.
He pointed out that the fibre wire was stretched too tight at some point.

If you plan on getting Fibrex, make sure you supervise the installation and ensure there is as little tension as possible on the wire, as it is quite fragile.

My Fibrex is now working smoothly!

Installers are the biggest issue, since MTN outsources it. You dey install fiber, you no go carry tool to test for signal.
