twosquare:My speed this morning.

twosquare(m): 7:30am On Oct 11, 2024 |
KemoSabe:It came as a result of Starlink's price increase... |
KemoSabe: 7:37am On Oct 11, 2024 |
twosquare:Understood, but me, I came from Airtel. We even have Airtel fibre laid in our Estate but forward ever. It's easier if u got some $$$ though. Easier said |
twosquare(m): 8:18am On Oct 11, 2024 |
KemoSabe:Estate with fibre...I dey talk with top gee....bro, help our ministry. ![]() ![]() Actually, not many people earn in $$$...and people actually wanted an affordable unlimited internet, but T-Pain no dey gree with the Naira devaluation, etc. That's why some are giving up. I mentioned earlier why I didn't go for Starlink, after calculating the overall cost and maintenance. Now, price increase in naira came; the straw that broke the camel's back for some. |

twosquare: Na only Airtel has that Plan but MTN has something better on Fiber Optics but not yet available in my Area but it's getting closer |

If I had MTN fiber in my Estate, I would abandon my Starlink. With MTN fiber, you get a guaranteed 150Mbps at 60k. These days, Starlink is so slow and sluggish during the day time.

dustmalik:What about FiberOne? They have 150mbps at ~53k |
dustmalik(m): 12:53pm On Oct 11, 2024 |
rookidmart:Will give them a call and find out if the service is available in my Estate. Thanks. |
dustmalik(m): 1:15pm On Oct 11, 2024 |
rookidmart:I just checked their site and found out that they give differing value at same cost of plans for Lagos and Abuja. Given that I live in Abuja, I won't be using their services. |
dustmalik(m): 1:34pm On Oct 11, 2024 |
For those who live in Lagos, these two plans make sense especially with the increase of Starlink plans. The challenge with fiber connectivity is the frequent outages due to fiber cable cuts.

rookidmart: 2:22pm On Oct 11, 2024 |
dustmalik:I had no idea they did that. Checked their website and the difference is steep! What I pay for 100mbps in Lagos is what they charge for 50mbps in Abuja. Crazy |
georgee(m): 3:01pm On Oct 11, 2024 |
dustmalik:Which ISP is this? |
dustmalik(m): 4:18pm On Oct 11, 2024 |
rookidmart:It's unfortunate. |
dustmalik(m): 4:19pm On Oct 11, 2024 |
georgee:FiberOne plans for Lagos. |
georgee(m): 4:21pm On Oct 11, 2024 |
dustmalik:Ok.. Dem no dey my area |
dustmalik(m): 1:46pm On Oct 14, 2024 |
Am I the only one suffering these crazy outages and stats? The thing is, it doesn't happen after midnight, just during the day time. Ping success is usually around 99% and 98% after midnight, but becomes terrible during the daytime. As a result, Starlink performance is now shitty during the daytime here at my location in Abuja. These aren't caused by obstructions as you can see that my obstruction map is quite clear.

dustmalik: Same experience in other states. Seems it's caused by congestion which is why it happens during peak period and not at night |
dustmalik(m): 2:15pm On Oct 14, 2024 |
lionkingonfire:Damn. This is very frustrating. |

lionkingonfire: True talk. Starlink don turn to "extra-cool" So during the day I'm on MTN 5G |

Tonyace25: You'll need a starlink adapter, router, and an access points |
Seun(m): 6:07pm On Oct 18, 2024 |
Guys, have you recently switched to Starlink Residential in the Lagos area? How did you do it? Did you sign up from the official site? If so, how long did you have to wait? Did you use an address just outside the restricted area? Or: are you on the roaming plan of ₦167,000/month? |
ibietela2(m): 8:25pm On Oct 18, 2024 |
Tonyace25: Maybe use external router, |
