Re: Airtel Rolls Out 4G Service In Nigeria by jantavanta(m): 8:51am On Apr 23, 2017
Airtel 3G signal strength, availability and latency is Very Good, so I expect Airtel 4G to match or supersede MTN 4G.

It is not a false news. Airtel rolls out means it is in the process of doing the roll out. Airtel has awarded the contract to ZTE at the expiration of Huawei's contract with them.
Airtel-ZTE contract is basically swap of BTS/RBS (Base Telecom Station BBU) from Ericsson to ZTE. Installation of LTE is not part of the project for now. Until Airtel and ZTE reach an agreement on that (swapping of 3G to LTE), the information herein is wrong.

Please what do you mean by swapping 3G to LTE? Where is Airtel using Ericsson RBS?

All these depends on location.

Correct. But Glo service is just too poor at my end.
Airtel is always there for me whenever I need it.

Airtel is using Ericsson RBS in Nigeria. If I'm wrong, kindly tell me whose equipment Airtel uses.
Note: it might depend on region.

Swapping or cutover from UMTS to LTE using the LTE Triband antenna that has frequency range of 564-960 (for LTE 800- it can accommodate 2G 900MHz band) and 1710-2690 (For LTE 2600MHz - has 4 ports and can house 3G 2100MHz and LTE 2600MHz).

A bit over a year ago I dumped my MTN and GLO lines for an Airtel. So far I've not been disappointed at all as their HSDPA service availability and quality within and outside Uyo has been quite decent. There may be a few coverage issues that'll probably require the notice of their Optimization crew. But again, so far so good. 'cant wait to access the 4G service.
