senator282:You said you have had about 10 outages, that can last more than 3 hrs in the last 3 mths, and i was reacting to that nothing more nothing less. Yes they had a regional issue, the same for Starlink, they have had that too. |

Starlink can't be compared to MTN Fibre X Fine, MTN Fibre X might have more Internet speed and low latency than Starlink , but what's the use of an ISP that will have multiple outages in a month/year. You can't wake up and beat your chest of having network on a good day with MTN Fibre X U can never compare Starlink outage with MTN Fibre X. U can defend it anyhow you want, but Starlink still ranks high. What will it take for me to discard Starlink and switch to MTN and get MTN Fibre X router for free, then probably sell off my Starlink and still make some money. MTN Fibre X will make me develop BP as I have a close friend who uses and dude is always complaining. Things like this are not encouraging considering the fact that MTN Fibre X has not even covered 15% of 🇳🇬 |

georgee:It's like some folks do not understand the type of shege wey go make you ditch local ISPs and buy starlink. Starlink hardware alone costs 350k for the mini and 620k for the standard, with 57k monthly subscription. Non starlink users may see this as total waste of money. But the thing is, when it comes to internet accessibility, you can't put a price on stability and uptime (which starlink has). Fibre X is cheaper sure but in this case, "cheaper" doesn't always means better. At the end of the day, I'm glad we now have options to choose from. I've not paid a token for subscription this year as I've accumulated referrals all thanks to starlink. No local ISPs offer referral programs. No local ISPs customer support comes close to starlink No local ISPs uptime comes close to starlink. No local ISPs is as transparent as starlink No local ISPs give peace of mind as starlink. I'm not a starlink fanboy but the fact is the fact. |

Good day, everyone. Please, I need help with my Starlink Gen 3/V4. I have been using it since August 2024. Since last month, it only powered on after I adjusted the power cable for several minutes. Now, it has stopped working completely. Has anyone experienced this problem before? Was it the cable or the power supply, and how did you fix it? Please, I need your advice. I am losing valuable working hours because of this. Thank you. |
| Re: My SpaceX Starlink Internet Experience In Lagos, Nigeria by johnnyholtby(m): 10:45am On Oct 24 |
Possibly the power brick is faulty. Get in touch with support luvablesam: |

Some eligible customers (+me) got stepped up to 1Gbps at 100k (50% off). I believe this is rolling and would be available to everybody soon. Oya Starlink boiz come and cry , Where is that dude that said 1Gbps doesn't even get 200Mbps upload?

QuoteJust1nce:This is good oh. But in real life do you even need this speed? My old starlink v2 gave me 450-500mbps (for those who want to argue, I'm in the north), and it was too much for me. I got an access point and dedicated 100mbps for hot-spot business which my clients enjoyed and i still had like 200+mbps for myself which was still too much for me. But i want to believe that some of you have heavy things you do with Internet that makes you need all that speed |
| Re: My SpaceX Starlink Internet Experience In Lagos, Nigeria by QuoteJust1nce: 11:31am On Oct 27 |
ask4bk:1Gbps seem quite small for my everyday life. I work with Gigs upon gigs of data (for real work) that i have to continually download and upload; so the faster the better. Not to mention the amount of devices and video game consoles that are currently connected to the network. |
| Re: My SpaceX Starlink Internet Experience In Lagos, Nigeria by gsparks01(m): 12:38pm On Oct 27 |
ask4bk:what device did you use for the access point? |
| Re: My SpaceX Starlink Internet Experience In Lagos, Nigeria by morikee: 4:45pm On Oct 27 |
QuoteJust1nce:But why can't they sell the 1Gbps at 100k just asking |
| Re: My SpaceX Starlink Internet Experience In Lagos, Nigeria by michlins(m): 6:31pm On Oct 27 |
QuoteJust1nce:how much is this |
| Re: My SpaceX Starlink Internet Experience In Lagos, Nigeria by senator282: 7:05pm On Oct 27 |
morikee:This is most reasonable price for this package but no mtn want to do as they like. |
| Re: My SpaceX Starlink Internet Experience In Lagos, Nigeria by ask4bk(m): 7:14pm On Oct 27 |
QuoteJust1nce:Makes sense for what you do with it. For majority of us, that's over kill. Even 50mbps is ok for many |
| Re: My SpaceX Starlink Internet Experience In Lagos, Nigeria by ask4bk(m): 7:15pm On Oct 27 |
gsparks01:A grandstream enterprise level access point. You can search for them. There are various types and do same based on intended use. |
