Please I want to get Airtel unlimited data Router but I need clarification on this.
Is it still working? I would want to be using it both at home and in my shop. I hope it's what I can move from location to location. I have a good Airtel network in both locations.
Kindly advice me. I can pay the 30k monthly subscription.
Get the odu ,. You won't have any problem.. if you want to be moving it about just like me, I will advise U to buy the zlt x17u.. it is lighter and easy to carry, with 5hours plus of backup

Happy weekend all, for those who had the promo deal of pay one month and get one free, how far? Did it work or was it for show?
I was about to asked this
Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by Tover: 2:01pm On Feb 07
Good day guys, happy weekend, it seems the network is somehow slow this noon or is it from my environment, upgrading with a file of 6gig, Showing more than 30mins

For mobility I will advice you go for the Airtel 5G unlimited router that comes with 30k 20mbps. You can move that to any location without issues and if like you said network is good in your location, then you don't have anything to worry about.

But if you chose the ODU, while it comes at 25k with 50mbps speed which is obviously better, mobility option is not really there, you will have to do the tweaking and getting another router, mind you, the tweaking stuff we don't know how long it will last and if it will be sustainable.
How much is the router?

I also have the same g5fa that's the ip for odu
He's using the ip for the indoor unit that's why he cant see the option to lock bands
What is your experience using that type of odu, I need a review from you bro, some of my frds got the odu, but the network has been so poor, but after locking to band1 the network is better than b4

There after you decide on which subscription plan you can afford.

The main purpose is for the speed based unlimited plans. 20 and 50mbps respectively..If you're not interested in this plan or maybe going for something lesser then get a smaller router.

6gb in 30 minutes is slow? Well that time frame is usually not static, adjusts based on speed and other factors.

Odu performance generally depends on your location( how close you're to a cell tower). The odu of the zte is future proof and overkill since the speed is just limited to 50mb/s. And also when installing any zte odu always use the zte installer app to get a good location. I also use the huawei which i prefer because of the app and can be more stable but it doesn't show your cumulative data usage.

Huawei doesn’t show cumulative data usage?

Where is airtel office in alimosho/Ayọbọ?
Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by bizzlemie(m): 6:50pm On Feb 07
All of a sudden, my download speed is way low (max of 2mbps) than my upload (45-50mbps). My signal is good (-64 rsrq, rssi 28), band been locked to 7 before now.

What could be the problem? Before today I've not had any issues with signal

Airtel is the problem

It doesn't you only get sms of your daily data usage and everything auto deletes on its own after some time

You’re wrong.

You may not see it on the app, but when you log in to the admin panel, you’ll see clearly on the home page and you can still go to Tools>Statistics to see.

All are 5G proof....The Huawei ODU/IDU seems the best. Everything changes when 6G shows up.

Daily my login(on the admin panel)always resets to the default(it would ask for the default password)(it can happen multiple times daily) and when this happens, all my settings(band locks), data usage all reset.

This issue has been happening from the first day I got it

Yes you're right but there are slight differences
Huawei(zowee) uses cpe max 6, supports up to 5.4gb/s download and 500mb/s upload and supports wifi 6 and the antenna(11dbi)

The zte G5f(G5 max) supports higher download and upload speed (up to 10gb/s), wifi 7 and antenna(13dbi) meaning you can select the direction you want the antenna to face.

These are the two I have and I don't know anything about the zlt variants.

About 6g, we haven't maximized 4g in Nigeria not to talk of 5g. The highest bandwidth I know of currently in Nigeria is mtns 1gbps which is only on their fiber network.

These odu's can't be fully utilized to their limit anytime soon in Nigeria but if they were to, they are not all equal in raw specifications and performance.

Then something is wrong with that device.

For me, the only time the statistics reset is when SIM is changed or when I reset the device (Like I inadvertently did a few days ago).

Lol nothing will change. You don't even have real 5G in Nigeria yet

The funds to deploy real 5G across the country no be here, I really don’t blame the ISPs for not embarking on such venture yet shocked

Apparently I went through the system log and something like this.

But I didn't press the factory reset button
Please where's the button located ?
