I really don't know what's going on with starlink. First attached screenshot is speed between my router and internet. Second attached screenshot is speed between my phone and internet. Third attached screenshot is the speed between my phone and router which is pretty good.

Raw speed is 400mbps but speed on my phone is 1mbps. I actually thought my router is the culprit but when I use a VPN, my phone's speed to the internet is way higher.

I've spent hours troubleshooting but nothing worked!

Anybody else experiencing this? Abi my router is toasted

it's general

Argh. Thank you!!

Wahala no dey finish. Spent heavily in relocating to my current location because the area is on band A. Based on my findings before moving in, they are guaranteed of at least 20 hours electricity daily, except during grid collapses. Got internet speeds of around 15 Mbps on Airtel and MTN on speed test.

Already 2 months in Airtel, Glo, and MTN have suddenly stopped working. First it was MTN, then Airtel, and now Glo. There are network masts in the area, calls and sms are fine but 0 internet. Can't even load the Nairaland home page.

I'm considering ordering Starlink, but when using my current location, the hardware kit automatically chosen is the standard kit with an instalmenetal payment plan. But if I input a location like Yenagoa, I'm given an option of mini or standard kit, total cost for the mini and activation which was waived was just #318k. I guess the reason for the automatic standard kit is that my current area is at capacity.

So I want to ask if I use Yenagoa as the location and when the order arrives, I install it at my location in Delta state, will there be limitations or issues later on? If I should opt for the standard kit, is there a grace period for default payments? The hardware kit and subscription payment are around #89k monthly. (32k + 57k). From solved wahala to internet wahala when problems finish?

I didn't know they still offer installments.. If you don't mind, what city is giving that option?

it's not installment o. It's pre-order

To avoid issues, ensure the location you use when ordering is your actual location .

Na wa, then why is the total due showing #89k, am I being charged the #57k subscription on pre-order too?

Seems the issue has been fixed, it's back up to normal now.

True sha but it's better than past 2 days so it looks positive

Starlink better reduce their data plan price

They are already losing customers

Lol they aren't. Infact they keep adding more customers everyday. Do you know how many users on their waitlist??

No naija ISP can touch STARLINK's service and customer support

They won't lose customers infact they have one of the cheapest and high speed unlimited plan in the country

Starlink needs competitors , i want to see others in this space.

As promised that I will test it when I reach Ekiti State. Almost the same speed this afternoon in Ado-Ekiti.

morikee:
For North mini dey hit 300mbps

They are about to lose me sef. I come dey wonder why I bought it in the first place. Although I have my reasons, and until it is fulfilled, they may be vindicated. Otherwise, I may just go the refund way.

naso someone go defend.

nigerian love defending poison

airtel odu is 25k
mtn fibre X is 30k

starlink is 57k with 25mbps

and you call it cheapest

if you are not one of the employee then thunder fire you

We all know what we are doing. Elon knows what he is doing. Starlink Roam is 38k/month. Niger of all country is supported, but Nigeria is not there.

57k for 25mbps?

I used Airtel ODU before porting to Starlink it was 50mbps capped at 1TB for 25k if you hit 1TB your speed dropped to 1~2mbps

Bro, who gave you bolded information?

Lol, is this for real?
Comparing ODU and fiber X to starlink. Same ODU that works once in a week? Same fibre X that isn't widely available in the country?

Btw, both ODU and fiberX aren't even truly unlimited.

And who told you Starlink speed is at 25 Mbps ?
You'd definitely look stoopid when you argue without facts.

I dare Airtel ODU and MTN fiber to achieve this data usage in just 3 days

my starlink gave me that

57k a month sub where minimum wage is 77k

no matter how you mfers diickride them, them no send una.
pretty soon or later they will up their plan to 75k

one nigerian mentality i hate the most is "since i fit afford am then is cheap"

Why can't you argue with fact without the usual Nigerian derailment

How much is 300mbps on MTN FiberX?

Last time i checked 100mbps was 45k same with Airtel ODU 100mbps which capped at 1TB

first of all if starlink will bring out 50mbps speed plan for 25k like mtn and airtel
everyone will join that but they know that

they blocked their cheap roaming plan from nigerians

not everyone is getting 100mbps, here i get 20 to 30mbps while paying 57k

they should bring up affordable plans for nigerians

MTN is far better than starlink, na hype una dey hype this expensive rubbish

look at 555k for a kit then 57k for monthly plan that means extra 570k with stupid speed

meanwhile MTN and AIRTEL KIT free of charge and you guys are comparing starlink to them

starlink is fraud

I just did this test around peak hour you might not be getting what you paid for but for me i'm getting value for my money and for Airtel they are renting the kit for you not like you own it same with FiberX

The only time i experienced high network disturbance was yesterday and day before yesterday so i understand you might have different experience with me but not justified to call them fraud
