Nairaland / General / Re: Spectranet, Smile Or SWIFT 4G LTE? I Need Advice by xkizer: 2:37pm On Mar 01, 2016
Amy4eva:
Spectranet can simply be described as '' rogues''. They have started practising their fraudulent practices by increasing the rate of data depletion.This was noticed when we had a meeting on Friday,15th Jan,16 and our laptops were idle, the data depleted by 6G and when we complained, the rate of depletion decreased..Under NO circumstances should anyone think of using Spectranet as their ISP.

Check what is eating your data. It's a common occurrence for staff to give out wifi passwords to close friends, who in turn give it out to their own close friends. Someone may be using your wifi while you were away.

Secondly, a staff of your company may be playing foul. In my work place, some people start downloading all their torrents and movies once they connect to the office network. Someone among you may have been using the data without the knowledge of the rest.

Spectranet provides a basic rundown of browsing sessions on their selfcare portal.

While not the nest network out there, Spectranet has been very good for me (Swift was way better). Though my Swift is a lot more stable than Spectranet (I think Swift has stronger network coverage), Spectranet has a higher spike speed, sometimes reaching speeds of 2.3MB/s, which is amazing really, considering the competition. Spectranet is also WAAAAAY cheaper than the rest. I am on 50GB plan (14,500 naira).

We use Smile and Swift at the office. Swift seems better at my home (Badore) than at the office (Ikota/VGC). This is possibly because of network congestion inside Ikota, as more than 3000 businesses are there.

We have had all manner of problems with Smile at the office, to the extent we now call it "frown". A lot of times it picks and chooses websites it will open, and blatantly refuse to open other. We are a tech company, we use lots of network tools, and Smile seems to block lots of network ports. Port 22 (SSH), 21 (FTP), and a host of others. We end up switching to our personal networks whenever we need to do any SSH-related stuff (git, etc).

Also, Etisalat, MTN, Glo and Airtel are cheaper than Smile. For a dedicated ISP, Smile is TOOO costly. For the price of 20GB on Smile, I can get 50GB on Spectranet and have some change. Even the price of 3GB on Smile can buy you 4.5GB on MTN. It doesn't make sense.

Animal proteins tend to be complete. Plant proteins tend to be incomplete. However, you can get all the essential amino acids from plants by eating a variety of plants.

The valuations for the Range Rovers are in the sky thus why I only responded with that of the LR before.
N1.4m,N1.750m,N1.950m and N2.7m would clear the 06,07, 08 and 0+ Range Rovers respectively.

Do call 08181494897 or email duduconsultt@yahoo.com for more information.

Thanks a million times. I will consider my options and get back to you.

I am considering importing any of Land Rover LR3, Range Rover or Range Rover Sport from the USA (Model years 2007-2009). I will need your help in clearing them, and the clearing cost will determine which one I go for. Please can you give me a quote?
