Try and get a wifi extender... Something like this , I am planning of getting something like this. because my 2.4ghz has stopped working..
Oh! I saw somewhere someone mentioned using a defunct router, like if you have two of this ODU, one can be used as an extender

this is expected. It is to discourage people that purchase the device every month instead of spending the 25k on subscription.

Did anyone receive this Airtel bonus of 2 months after renewing their subscription

They might hike the subscription join na so them hike that 20k 20mbps to 30k but it's unlikely since FibreX is already competing at 25k 50mbps

I’m locked to same, 78 for 5gnsa as I’m getting some signal strength for that here but is the 7 always good for you or do you switch to another band sometimes ?
Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by dustmalik(m): 5:35pm On Feb 27
An Airtel staff I have on my contact just posted that, from Monday, 2nd March, the price of the ODU will be 40k.

That was the time all network increase their data plan. There is a reason why ODU subscription is 25k for 50mbps and the reason is still there. So it is unlikely they will increase the price for now

Exactly.

They’re not increasing subscription for now. It’s only the device cost + free sub that will be 40k and I’m sure it will be monitored for market reaction.

Home broadband (Router) ≠ Fixed broadband (ODU)

If you have Starlink, there's no reason you should go for this. The instability can be very annoying sometimes. Starlink's stability is unmatched, plug and play.

I tried the ODU last year and there were times I was frustrated. There were times I had to go into the device to switch the network mode from 4G to 5G or vice versa because it was either not browsing or very slow. I imagine if I wasn't a technical person, I would have been left frustrated, cursing at Airtel. Once they hike the price of the device and plans, for me, it's totally not worth it anymore.

What type of android tv are you using... And how are you connecting it ,.. you should connect it with your router network by using the 2.8ghz or 5ghz

you have to use USB to lan. If you connect the lan directly it won't work.
Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by Gemstone001(m): 9:11pm On Feb 28
I have the M30 too...can you please explain exactly how you did this with the ZTE ODU?..or preferably with a picture of your connection to it
4litres:
So i have been following the thread for awhile now and i have learnt a lot from all of u. I also want to give a small update I just discovered. So i have this m30 mifi that has wan port and i decided to use it in place of the idu so as to reduce the bulk and battery consumption when moving it around. Lo and behold, it worked like a charm and the battery now lasts way over 12hrs since it's only the odu that's now connected to it. So basically, the idu was the main culprit on the power bank since it uses dc power. This also means, if u have any mifi that has a wan port on it, doesn't matter if it's mtn or airtel, it will work.
Re: Airtel Unlimited Data Thread! Best Data Plan In 2024!! by Gidah: 9:36pm On Feb 28
Not an android tv , i want to use the airtel android box ,But i think i got the fix thanks. Just have to buy the usb to lan adaptor .
