How do i order starlink adapter along with the kit. So they can all be shipped at the same time?

Na Duplex I dey live... Starlink Router and adapter go dey bedroom, then another Hub go dey sitting room to connect by android box

Okay Sir, we don hear say you dey live Duplex. You get money boss. Congrats. Add the LAN Adapter from the shop. Doesn't really matter if they come together or not because price includes shipping and customs. Cheers rich duplex man

Wahala! Well I got Hypenet and Airtel for back ups. Till middle of month before the thing arrive since 18th of last month oo

With Internet in Nigeria, you need backup always

dustmalik:
Contrary to what some people believe, a lot of Nigerians are ordering Starlink. In fact, the day mine was delivered, there were 6 other Starlink in the DHL delivery van, plus some other Starlink accessories.

Lol I ordered the LAN Cable accessory but in US because I'll need it for my Mesh system

ibawon:
The main reason I got mine was that 27 ISP's I contacted don't have any service in my area at all. Bro Even 50mbs is enough for me.

I wasn't gonna get Starlink. I was fine on FibreOne. 65 Down 65 Up. Works perfectly. Till dey kept me offline for almost 3 days. After they had kept me offline previously for over 16 hours. I had enough.

As I'm typing this, I can hear wind blowing like rain wants to fall and I already know my Starlink will soon start misbehaving. PAINNN!!!

ibawon:
Those guys be stretching my delivery also. From 24-2 March don turn 9-15th March. Na Wa oo

Lol. Demand is high. Later Nigerians will say money no dey

dustmalik:
No, it hasn't. I suspect the dish. The performance has been woeful as well. Getting 100Mbps is very difficult. I may have to open a complaint ticket very soon

Are you 100% certain it's not obstructed? A building taller than yours close to it? A tall tree?

Could you post the link to the Twitter posts on this issue? I suspect mine might be a Dish defect problem

Doubt it's a defective dish. Did it improve?

I guess some locations experience more outages than others due to certain activities.

Possible as we are all connected to different Satellites in different cells

Thanks. Please check the 0.1s+ tab, the one to the left.

Anything here is normal. Plane passing na obstruction, bird flying na obstruction, nylon wey wind dey blow na obstruction. If it's less than a second, it doesn't really affect anything. I don't notice.

Galantis:
What are their data plans like? or is it unlimited monthly?

$43 unlimited. Some say 1TB before throttle. Not sure it applies for Nigeria (yet). Also, off peak data doesn't count (11pm to 7am)

dustmalik:
😂😂😂 I am not sure why it is happening though. But I noticed I have only had one outage, which was less than a second, due to obstruction, for the past 43minutes since I rebooted the Starlink dish. So you might want to suggest to those users to reboot their Starlink, not the WiFi router.

EDIT: Unfortunately, I am still having those outages. I need someone to confirm if this happens without rainfall or bad weather.

Working good here. It could be anything. Give it time.

dustmalik:
I did but the experience, so far, hasn't been the best. I hardly get 200Mbps down. I am not sure if it is my location, given that there are little obstructions around me and there is really no way of placing the dish any better.

However, I do get certain outages that I am not sure if it's normal. Attached is a screenshot I took just now of the outages. Though i installed it yesterday night. Hopefully, it gets better overtime.

Rain disturbs Starlink just like DStv so that might have been the problem.

👍

I am expecting mine this morning. The elections delayed the delivery.

Did you get yours yet?

MrBiGGEST:
Omo, my friend actually told me he bought his @ 450 something k naira.. thanks for the info

Yes. That's what every Nigerian paid. Those other people are turning it into business. I saw one selling 570K.

WHY?! Lol.

MrBiGGEST:
Starlink is currently about 270k-280k

It's quite cheap for now , I think d price might go up soon

Those figures are the website converting $43 & $600 to Naira because of your IP address showing you are in Nigeria. Naira cards will not work. And you need to use a dollar card or virtual cards from the apps I listed above which means the actual naira values are 32K+ & 450K+ depending on how much the fintech sells dollars to you. Cheers. 😊

Mide337:
what's this one saying? Is it a crime to do business? Is it an illegal business? So because elon musk owns starlink, a Nigerian cannot be in business of selling it? 🙄 Some people level of reasoning is flawed

Go and find work. Anybody that has the money can order Starlink themselves.

NO DM ANYBODY FOR STARLINK OH! You may even run into complications if you don't buy from Starlink directly.

Go to their website. Starlink.com

You can pay using Virtual cards from apps like Payday, Chipper Cash & Gotok.

DM ko, MD ni.
