Post Ur download speed... Make a video of 3 device streaming at the same time, I want to check something cheesy
My download speed is good on 5G, but upload is poor. For download and streaming, all you need is good download speed. For instance, I am able to stream 4k video files of 35GB, some of those files have 40Mbps bitrate.

For those who have the Huawei ODU, please post the box of the ODU.

Yeah. The IDU is Huawei AX3S and the ODU is H362-383 (by Zowee Technology).

Mine was installed on Tuesday.
Please, post the pic of the box when you can. Thanks.

Remove the power cable, then the sim card and power it again. Login to this same portal and see if you're going to see wired or cable broadband mode, or something similar.

Wait oo, I did some swap for my ODU and the agent that did it for me told me to wait for 6hours before using it. But as I reach home I put ON my ODU router and the e-sim is still connecting.

I thought it will stop working immediately I did the swap?? Or is the guy not do it well??

The physical sim becomes active once the swap is passed. Until then, the Esim remains active.

The fact that it has that menu you showed in the screenshot in your previous message means that it has that feature, I mean that WAN feature. So try and find how to make it work.

Looks like Airtel improved a lot from this afternoon to right now in my location. Getting constant 50mbs download speeds.

Nice.

This is on 5G. The 5G cell tower, which is far away from my location, seem to have poor upload speed, but the download is good. For streaming and downloading, all you really need is the download speed.
Lol...this speed is just a child's play for ppl using MTN fiber or starlink, grin grin cheesy, so don't think you are getting a good speed , Ur good speed is a fair speed to some people

oh great, thank you for this information. That mean I don't even need to keep checking whether the SIM is active yet, once the e-sim stop working, it mean the swap SIM has started working 👍

MTN fiber hasn't covered up to 2 percent in Nigeria but Airtel ODU covered so many countries in Africa

That's not the point of this conversation. We are talking about Airtel ODU's 50Mbps plan and its speed.
I have been using Starlink since February 2023, currently using the Gen3 v4 system. Starlink can be quite slow and annoying sometimes, especially for those of us who live in Abuja or Lagos, as these two cities have reached capacity. that's why I got the Airtel ODU.

Below is a speed test I just carried out on my Starlink. In the dead of the night, I get over 300 to 400Mbps.

Which do you prefer

Of course Starlink, as it's truly unlimited. No data cap, no speed cap. I have used up to 2.7TB in a month. I know someone that have used up to 11TB in a month. Whatever speed is available is what you get. Airtel ODU is a good backup for when Starlink is performing poorly, especially during the daytime.

It does work at my end but there is no need for that because, my X25 pro has a better speed and stability that the Airtel ODU.
Your ODU.....ZTE , ZLT or Huawei

I have ZTE and ZLT but i prefer X25 pro. It’s more stable than the ODU.
