Stop complaining bro your unlimited data plan is capped at 20mbps....buy a normal data plan or buy a higher unlimited speed ban! There is 20mbps 40mbps and 60mbps else just buy normal data to browse at maximum speeds
Well, this is not to argue but to educate each other. When the unlimited speed cap is 20mbps, and you are connected to only your smartphone, no downloads or uploads, and you are still struggling to view WhatsApp status. And note there is a 5G network in my area.
@@a3teqThere's 5G network in ur area doesn't necessarily mean u will get a 5G speed. I believe u're currently using a 4G sim. To get a 5G speed, U will have to insert a 5G SIM in the router bro
Hello there many factors you didnt cover eg are you in a 5G area? or it switched to a 4G or 3G network?, also on unlimited 5g bundles they have speed caps and data caps. That will be a well done review.
It would give u 22mbps or 21mbps because you are using unlimited capped at 20mbs speed. If u need uncapped speed and capped data go for normal data, n watch how it finishes swiftly. 20k for 20mbps 35k for 40mbps 50k for 60mbps All unlimited. If u need super speed go for normal data. The 5g and 4g+ is equally fast in my area. Rivers State, rumuokoro area
This video is not very scientific because irrespective of the fact that you have 5G coverage you're testing the router with a capped data plan. The unlimited plan that comes bundled with the Airtel router is capped at ~20Mbps, and you never mentioned anything about using an uncapped plan to test the 5G router. Also, your title may be misleading seeing as your location could be playing a part in the slow speed that you're experiencing. The airtel 5G router is capable of speeds that the older 4G one can only dream of, you just have to test them in the right conditions. Anyway, I hope your experience with it improves soon.
@@a3teq Yeah. That's exactly what I said. Which is why it's not very reasonable to advise against buying the 5G router based on its speed capability alone. Because with an uncapped data plan and a very strong 5G signal, trust me, that router flies fast. I know because I have tested it.
I have actually used both and I can tell you that the 5g isn’t any faster than the internet speed of the 4G router. Save your money and buy the 4G it’s cheaper
I don't agree. The 5G router is significantly faster on my end. The thing is about the availability of 5G network in your area. I have up to 230Mbps on 5G network and the signal light is always green.
Are you sure you are not using the unlimited data capped at 20mbps. That may be the reason why you’re getting that speed. Basically, the plan restricts you to that internet speed
i just lost my 60k for this router, only having to be getting 2mbps in internet speed, no 5g signal, 4G signal on green and getting only 2mbps. Even if its unlimited plan is on a capped spleed limit 2mbps is really bad, when i tested it in a 5G environment i only got 18mbps. Too bad.
nah! give it time... all nigerian network are at their worse at this current moment. probably the weather season... MTN is even worse in some places... so give it time.. another thing is the congestion of users in your area.... if you stay in a very populated area with fewer airtel tower masses, you'll struggle to get quality signal... 5G or 4G your router will struggle... also if airtel network isnt solid in your area....hope this helps..

The attention span of people has reduced that why we make the video short. The review was done in a 5g Area.
MINE AUTOMATICALLY TURNED TO 4G WITHOUT ANY SETTING .ANY HELP @MWINENGABO2971
I think they caps the speed to 20mbs on the unlimited that came with it, maybe that is why. Try do another special data plan
Switch to 4G+ and lock it there cause your 4g signal looks better than 5g. Mine was similar case cause i get 117mbps on 4G while 67mbps on 5G
Wow, this is insightful.
Thanks
How do I do this?
How can I do this because i have been struggling to get good connection
@@lindag9010 If you system support LAN cable use it, you will get faster network.
How to lock it to 4g or 5g

20k for 20mbps

50k for 60mbps
All unlimited.

They canceled the 20k own the minimum now is 35k
There is sense in what you are saying. I almost got discouraged to buy. I stay at Choba area. And I'll buy the 5g router next month.
But also I'll check the other routers too I'll select the best from my Topsis analysis.
@Dakingsman554 Make sure the 5g in your area is stable. Or you can go for capped data, which you can finish within a week.
@@a3teq I just checked their hbb plans it seems they have brought it back
My Airtel 5g smart box pro is universal.. I can use any network on it
How bro can u help me to do to mine😢
sorry how much is the smartbox pro and where can i get it?
@@oyinlolabalo518 am in kenya
I don't like speed capping, just allow us enjoy max speed because some of us are heavy data users.
You want to send airtel back to village abi 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@a3teq not just airtel o, all the network providers in Nigeria infact, go to other countries, no speed capping
@@sheriffemmanueliziokhai3394 We are getting there gradually
Question please?
Your old 4G Router has unlimited bundle just like the new one 5G Router
Which one do you recommend me to buy fir Unlimited bundle
Cap data plans are always faster. But the faster it is, that is how your data bundle will finish ASAP
@@a3teqI want to buy the 4G smartbox but I don't know if it has the unlimited Bundle ₦20K plan
@ElvisChibundu No. Buy the new smart box that come with 5g. You will get it there
@@a3teq Okay
Totally poor network. I don't recommend anyone to buy Airtel 5g WiFi.
What location are you using it from? I am
I think it should be don't buy it if you don't have the network coverage near you
On average their network is very poor even in areas they claim 5g is available
@@a3teq airtel kenya is the best in the market here
Can if ise free to Air when there os no data
No
I heard in the first month of using the 5G router, you get unlimited Internet. Is this true?
I heard you need 24/7 electricity charging it to operate it.. is this true
I meant you can use it directly with a power supply and save the power bank for when the power supply is interrupted
I bought a 4G smartbox router from Airtel. Registered the sim and it’s still not working
You will need to go back to their office and complain.
Hello please how will i use it just brought the wifi didnt know how to connect it
You power it on and check the base of the router for wifi key to use to connect to the router
Does it come with a free data bundle?
Yes. It comes with unlimited plan with cap speed of 20Mbps

@@ConfyScentyUnderstood
@@a3teq Weldone ✌🏽. I hope you enjoy your purchase.
@@ConfyScenty I have abandoned it. Their minimum price for unlimited plan now is 35k for 40Mbps. I am saving up for starlink
You are using a capped data, even if you are in a 5G location you can not get high speed because your data is capped
I have actually used both and I can tell you that the 5g isn’t any faster than the internet speed of the 4G router.
Save your money and buy the 4G it’s cheaper
Yes, the 4g will be faster because the faster it is the more your your data balance reduces
I don't agree. The 5G router is significantly faster on my end. The thing is about the availability of 5G network in your area. I have up to 230Mbps on 5G network and the signal light is always green.

Depends on what speeds your paid for
Yes

Switch to 4G only and select /lock only band 7. You should get better results
Try smile
Smile has no coverage in my area
I DEY GET 2MB/S
Do you have the 5g indicator light on? 2mbps is too slow

That is too 🐌 slow.
How much is that
