Ehen shocked So there's SWIFT network in ikorodu ?.. I was afraid I won't get a good reception that's why I haven't bought it yet .. people have been recommending that Smile to me , but from what I've heard here , it seems they have data cap on their unlimited plans , same thing with Spectranet-LTE ... Have you checked your data usage a month with spectranet ?.
Sorry I don't stay in Ikorodu.
And yeah I checked the one for last month (December), I've used 142gb on the spectranet

it's only 20gb + night unlimited from 11pm to 8am everyday, including Sunday special which starts at 11pm Saturday and ends Sunday 6pm. Your download speed never gets throttled. You can download all you want.

The weekend (I.e Saturday to Sunday) is it capped... Cause what I want to download is about 80gigs

Whatever you do, don't subscribe to Ntel. Add 2.5k and subscribe for MTN unlimited(capped at 100gb) mega plan.

Ntel is so unreliable and their customer service reps are only interested in reminding you that your data will soon expire.

I mean, imagine a network that charges you N100 to recharge your line. You can't even check your credit balance, you can't recharge and be sure that when your current Subscription expires, it will automatically renew.

Spectranet... 18k sub that's what I use for My Smart Tv, Ps4...
I also use Swift for downloading, so I'll advise you go for either.
Smile now offers non throttled service ,you can go for their 20k plan.

Peace
You mean this plan?
Is it truly unlimited without being throttled?

With 300kB per second you can do 26GB per day if it's constant..

For 1 Minute 300kB * 60 =18000kB or 18MB
For 60 Minutes 18MB * 60 = 1080MB or 1.08 GB
For 24 hours 1.08 * 24 = 26 GB

If this is constant, then For 30 days you can do 780GB that's over 500GB

I use a constant 200kB, it can stream up to 720p YouTube video

Good Morning guys.. I recently got the swift sim card but it has no network signal on my phone which supports band 40. I have tried setting the swift Apn but still no luck. Any suggestions will be highly appreciated.

If you can pay 20k for internet, Power shouldn't be an issue, I'm speaking for my self oo, I use inverter so no power issue..

You need to manually search for the internet, automatic connection won't work if you are in area with poor coverage..

Search manually select 62126, it will connect

Bro..Thanks for your response. I tried searching manually now and i saw various options except 62126. I tried connecting to one of the networks i saw like Swift Network 4G but it couldn't connect.
P/S I tried searching again with my Glo sim and i saw the 62126 option. But if i search with the Swift sim 62126 option is not there.

This is the only problem if not, I would have switched to Spectranet long ago. I didn't even know their speed was that good. I went to someone's house yesterday who bought a PS4 from me, to install. I was easily getting 20-25 mbps as he said.

But in my house, we rely heavily on internet for everything so 100GB won't work for me. The movies I download now are 4K 2160p HDR movies, each some is like 10-20GB.
what data plan are you using?

Coverage in your area is poor, I do experience the same. Just get their modem, those modem have better network strength.

Good.. the SIM must be in SIM 1 of the phone. Force the phone to be on 4g only by dialing *#*#4636#*#* if that doesn't work use 4g only app to set it. Make sure you set up your apn to LTE.swiftng.com. thirdly.. swift SIM doesn't bring out network signal bar. You can only see the 4g or LTE sign only, don't let bother you..

Since it's an old Xiaomi device, then you have to apply the method in my video

I just bought my smile network now , And I can say I'm not so impressed with their 3 megabits speed , it doesn't go higher than the 3 megabits, I tried using it with my phone my SMART TV ( watching Netflix) and my brother was on it too with his phone , It was kind of slow on TV and the quality of video on Netflix tv was 480p manageable ..

Unlike the Ntel I use before , I can connect all this devices , and I still get 1080p or higher on my TV and both my phone and my brother's will be running just fine , if not that Ntel caps me most times if I use too much data a day , I would have choosen Ntel .. I wreck ntel up to 500gig a month ... Maybe it's just my area Sha ..
