I got this connection (Multi-Links Telkom 3G Blue Broadband) on 22/06/09, after reading a post in this forum. It worked superbly in the first 2 weeks. I could actually watch videos on YOUTUBE without breaking. Download speed was also excellent.  The speed was like WAOW! OMG!. It was really a wonderful experience.

However, with time (barely 3 weeks) came a drastic decline in the speed. As I type, the speed is now worse than their regular Dial-Up service. No exaggerations. It takes time to load even Google! Most times when you are browsing, it redirects you automatically to Prepaid Nigeria's website. Then you have to reconnect to get thing back to normal. At other times you are disconnected for hours without any reason. I dare not even type YOUTUBE in my browser anymore. The speed is frustratingly slow 

I guess it is a Nigerian thing, so I am not complaining. I have had my share of bad experiences with other networks so it really is not new. I knew too well it was just a matter of time before they mess things up. It is really sad 

Anyway, I have resumed my search once again for a "better network". If you got something super fast (minus STARCOMMS, MULTI-LINKS TELKOM, RELTEL ZOOM, VISA PHONE, INTERCELLULAR, MTN, GLO ZAIN and DOPC) and reasonably affordable, hit me up.

All I want is a reliable super fast Internet connection, is this too much to ask from my beloved country?
