That's Clark Belt. Per FCC regulations, communication companies are not allowed to place satellites there. Everyone along the North of the equator like Nigeria gets that blank space. If you move the dish a thousand times, it won't disappear. lukfame: 1 Like |

Can you explain more? Are you using an inverter with the 12volt battery and is it a soft hum that you hear? Stock2233: |

Morning everyone I'd appreciate help with these questions 1. I'm at Ojodu Lagos and I want a residential plan which is currently unavailable...is there any chance of switching plans whenever this becomes available? 2. Premised on the first question...Which is best - buying from Jumia or Konga and buying from Starlink themselves....the ones from Jumia/Konga, can I try out different locations to see if I'd find an available service address not too far from me when I get the device before settling on a plan or it's already locked to the roaming plan, because I understand that for buying from Starlink I need to register those addresses ahead first at the time of purchase |

GiggsTk: 1. Yes 2. Buy from any but konga is more faster IMO. You can try other address before switching |

My residential plan has been activated. I am still getting the same 20-60 mbp/s on speed test. The difference is that it is true to the speed test😂. As in when I download , download speed is the same unlike when I was on mobile and it was capping me at 500mbp/s to 1mbp/s Now I don’t cry thinking why am I spending this money for this mediocre speeds |
Re: My SpaceX Starlink Internet Experience In Lagos, Nigeria by dastudent(m): 2:01pm On Jul 13 |
If you want same price as site, buy from Konga or Jumia. I bought mine from computer village at 460k with no account on it and I had no issues installing it myself. GiggsTk: 1 Like |

dastudent:Thank you. Just checked though and it doesn't seem any of them have in stock, so I might have to resort to buying from the official starlink website |

dastudent: Konga and Jumai doesn't have in stock. Also, I can't really buy from starlink except I select a location outside Lagos or select the roaming plan and place the order. But I just noticed that the price is 300k if I select the roaming plan instead of 440k, does this suggest a difference in hardware? Because I'm surprised it's cheaper, and if that's the case why are people going ahead to buy the device at 440k, when there's no residential plan currently? |

Sulejamade: Got bluegate when I first bought my Starlink, it was almost N100k forgotten the capacity, I also needed something to hold the Starlink for no more than 30mins, the problem is that the bluegate life depletes with time, and a time will come when you would need more than 30mins. Eventually got a EcoFlow power station for N520k, 720W capacity, takes less than 1hour to charge to 100% and keeps the starlink powered for up to 12 hours. I actually contacted the manufacturer and was told I could use it like a UPS, so now I leave the starlink permanently plugged to the power station, and the power station plugged to a wall socket. 2 Likes |

Re: My SpaceX Starlink Internet Experience In Lagos, Nigeria by GiggsTk(m): 10:00am On Jul 14 |
sonickay:I don't think so. But I just tried and it says not available for Nigeria. So it means there's no place to buy now
