What connection is that? Really need some speed.

Huhm, dis foreign ppl wit their wahala, EVDO, EVDO , I think its high time we developed our intelligence too so we cud stop paying for oda ppl's intelligence.

I have had to re-format my customer's Vista to XP just because of this nonsence EV, wat sef.

It was frustrating the first night this guy brought it, I felt like smatching the laptop on the floor. But, now I seem to know why it was slow, perhaps not within the coverage area. and dis EVDO of a thing is Izap Genie of N26,999 and yet slow as earthworm contradicting the superfast they claimed.

Well, lets be wise my phipul but God help us sha.

these last few days i think starcomms has become ridiculously slow - especially before 12pm at least in my area - Ogba()

yes oh d Yello people ^{(sorry it took me a while to reply,,,,,no thanks to starcoms )}

@lynxnoon
Lynx, lynx. You make use of both MTN and Starcomms.
Starcomms is absolute rubbish in the day.
The two of them are unpredictable.

Lookatchu! I heard u can't download a whole lot with the MTN Crap So ur using Starcomms to download what u need huh

D1KeleVra:

Lookatchu! I heard u can't download a whole lot with the MTN Crap

well 3Gig

D1KeleVra:

So ur using Starcomms to download what u need huh

dat was den dis is now

Only 3Gig? And I heard it was 30Meg, 3Gig is still ok, but not enough. Is it like 3gig/mnth?

@D1KeleVra
Its 3GB download limit per month. The download limit includes streaming videos, streaming music, sites visited, music & video downloads.

As for now i can sincerly say dat mtn has the fastest internet
But we're all going to be watching it slowly get from good to managible to bad(starcomms) and then to worse
Really, all we have to do is wait, its not dat bad, i mean who could have dreamt of getting 100KB/s 4yrs ago.
I really can't see which isp is going to really give Nigerians the broadband they so desprately want/need (u decide which one)
but all i can say is dat its definetly not going to come tommorow or dis year as a matter of fact but it will eventually come(maybe next year wen dat undersea cable finally lands)but all we need is patience.
I've googled the words broadband and nigeria more times than anyone can count but de results are always the same (for now)
If there is such a thing as broadband in Nigeria, the monthly subscription will probably be in 7 digits
By the way the upload speeds jafextra(pg 26) is getting is about the fastest ive seen so far
@jafextra where do you stay

Guys na wah oh!!
what did i do to starcomms?? hv not bin logged in yet^{(getting to 2 weeks now )}

@lynxnoon

hehehe! You be security man for Starcomms Bishop Kale office? It's all good man! Just happy that they don't put anyform of monthlt download limit

D1KeleVra:

their download speed is a limit in itself. needless putting a limit (wen u'll never even get to tht limit with their present speed). u get my point?

abi oh!
Imagin dis starcoms pple, i cant login till 23rd of march, i hv 2 go 2 dat toyin str, AGAIN!!!

does anyone use starcomms or mtn for online gaming?
jst got my ps3 and im expexting the 360 in about a month or two and single player isn't really intresting

@lynxmoon
Why do you still visit the toyin street dulfice?stroll down to bishop kale or email internet@starcomms.com with stating your complaint.

I wonder y, I got tired of the **olodo** there long time ago!

init4dmoni:

Guy, don't use MTN for online gaming becos of the download limit. Make use of Starcomms or Swift or Multi-Links.

phew!! my zap now working ^{( i hd to pull some strings to get it activated today )}
d speed is just dere jare!!

@lynxnoon
Good to know its now activated and working. Were you ever told the reason why you have been deactivated for so long?

@lynxnoon
I no go mind ur strings at all o!Incase mine starts misbehaving in the nearest future.

obinna5000:

@lynxnoon

i was told by an insider dat wen using d 100hrs or 250hrs & it gets to a certain time limit, once u log off it automatically stops ur account ,,,,,,for me i stil had like ova 8hrs left^{(of course d customer care wont tell u dis)} and i had paid ofr d nite plan cos dey said it wil be in queue to my current account; so as i was logged off d nite plan was post dated to 23rd of may(IMAGIN!!)
I had to just forfeit chasing d remaining hours i hd left & a friend who works dere helped me to activated d nite plan immediately
So i gess using d 100 or 250hr plan is out for me ^{(i.e if i'd stil continue using dia stuf afta dia account expires )}
So dats d sumary of my ordeal wit starcoms oh

i'm in owerri now. 1X is avaible ony. but seems more stable than the EVDo in PH these days. well i'm not doing any download now, web pages seems to load fast enough, and uploading email attachments is quick too. this 1X is not that bad.

my laptops bad so the maximum i can stay up to is 1 sometimes 2
but it seems like lately a lot of people are willing to stay up dat late
i mean, i cant remember the last time i witnessed 500kbps+ which, before, was minimum from 12:30
i'd like to advise everyone to start getting thier good nite sleep and leave the midnight browsing to people
who really need it (that means me)
oh yea i 4got to add pUuUhHlLeEaAsSeE
