lilclin:
It seems Airtel have stopped throttling once you hit 1TB or its sim selective because I've used more than 1TB and it's still blazing

If true then this is great. However I have only reached 1Tb once

yes Chief

Hey boss...what do you mean by 10% cash back? I know the 50mbps 3 months ODU plan is about 67,500. But the cash back sounds new to me.

If you pay for the sub using Airtel smartcash then you'd be given 10% cash back

Can anyone else confirm they no longer throttle your speed after hitting 1TB on the 25K - 50Mbps plan? I know the 45K plan had 1.5TB speed cap also.

BTW, i was the first to report the 1TB speed cap throttling to 2Mbps sometime last year. I stopped subscribing because of that.

Since i hit 1TB it's like the speed even increased. I'm now getting 70+Mbps since yesterday i hit 1TB

So your ODU eventually started working?

Yes. I am enjoying it now.

Fantastic feedback. I hope it's not a glitch in the matrix that will be rectified later.

oh nice, thanks for this eye opener

when you renew your subscription or buy data using the Smartcash app, you get 10% back of the money you spent.

Netmirror,
Give it a try, that's what I use on my android tv

Confirmed. This is true. Airtel has reverted to the original 25K, which includes cost of installation. It's probably because MTN has entered the game. MTN's ODU costs 30K, including installation and comes bundled with unlimited 100Mbps.

This is coz the ZTE odu they're selling is weak and lame people have known its specs and price they had no choice but to lower the price besides the x17u is running out of stock and it is an upgrade over x17m except the IDU 3GPP Release 16 vs 3GPP release 15 that explains why it lasts with battery

Personally I am against this ODU coz of it's raw specs it is weak

Wow! I may get the MTN because their network is fast here. But thinking of my permanent address, Airtel is the best there...confusing. Don't want to stay in Osun for long.

Anybody that has able to get the MTN ODU should please come give review

Lurked around this group, got convinced Airtel’s network was better now, dusted off my SIM, and subscribed. Three days later, I’m still being reminded why I hadn’t subscribed on that SIM for the past seven months.

Sigh… another ₦25k wasted.

Airtel 5g network is great here in Abuja. It's just the data is quickly exhausted

I got the MTN ODU earlier today at the MTN's HQ in Abuja. The device is being handled by the broadband team, not customer service walk-in. You are asked to pay #30,100.

After registration, the 100Mbps unlimited plan was activated, and it started working immediately. The ODU MTN is currently issuing is the ZLT X17U, same as the one of Airtel, same IDU as well.

I got home and started streaming with it and carrying out speed tests. I never got up to the advertised 100Mbps, it was hovering around 40 to 70Mbps on both 4G and 5G. it could be because of the MTN network issues we have been having in my location for the past one month or there about.
The thing is, i live directly under a base station and speed used to be excellent. In fact, i used to get up to 200Mbps on MTN 4G even in the daytime. But all of a sudden, MTN data services took a bad turn for over a month now. I can't even get up to 80Mbps on 5G, same 5G i used to get 400Mbps+.

Apart from the network challenges in my location, the other thing pissing me off about the MTN ODU is the ODU's interface. It's bland, lack features like the Airtel variant. It doesn't have the settings to enable or disable network bands or to lock them. It doesn't have the settings to change the internal antenna's directions like you can on the Airtel's variant, this particular feature helped me a lot with Airtel. The interface also doesn't show your data usage count like the one of Airtel. In fact, the interface is so annoying.

I'm not discouraging anyone from getting it. If you know you can live without those features on the Airtel ODU as a power user, then go ahead and get it. The speed issue might as well be a problem specifically with my location as i mentioned earlier. I will be reporting the network issue to MTN.

This is the message you receive on the device after the 100Mbps plan is successfully activated, it specifically says the plan is without FUP (Fair usage Policy), and some images of the interface.
