    Afrihost MTN Fixed LTE-A Thread

    Thanks for your feedback, sometimes it feels like you are going crazy. That said I dumped Afrihost LTE for fibre not from them and they will never see me as a client again unless I have no other avenues. The incompetence and lack of taking responsibility are staggering. I had to deal with them...

    Am I the only person struggling with LTE?

    Below is my speed at 10:39 PM on Afrihost LTE via MTN. I even ran this tool for months to show the trends and I saw it was simple tower congestion due to oversubscription. There are 5 towers in my vicinity, less than 25km radius. They do not even attempt to move you to another tower. They...

    Am I the only person struggling with LTE?

    Make yourself ready for no answers. I have been going through this with Afrihost LTE and MTN for over a year. Sometimes it will go OK and after hours 01:00 am to 06:00 am no issues. Mobile working of the same tower is always stellar. You can speak to whatever "support" at Afrihost, LTE...

    Afrihost MTN Fixed LTE-A Thread

    Make yourself ready for years with no solution. The feedback will be that the tower is oversubscribed and to report it to MTN will make no difference and monthly you will have your debit order taken down by Afrihost like simply nothing is going wrong. Best time to work on Afrihost LTE is between...

    Afrihost Pure LTE (MTN) in the sticks

    5 Towers in a 25 km radius. Something else is potting. And not enough population to explain it. It is plain and straightforward negligence/ no care attitude from MTN. The more, the merrier, time somebody gets them to at least deliver the minimum services. I do not expect 100 Mbps

    Afrihost Pure LTE (MTN) in the sticks

    I have been an Afrihost client since October 2021. In short, MTN in the sticks services/towers are over congested, especially from 15:00 to 22:00 daily, and/or they are throttling clients. I went through the LTE department (about 4 times) and @AfriNatic MTN Coverage Department has had every...

    Great "SERVICE" by Afrihost brought in partnership with MTN

    Some thoughts, I have been assisted for the moment, there is a difference in between best effort and no effort. This has been an ongoing issue for 6 months and counting. There are no other platforms available in this area, fiber, DSL, Telkom, and long-distance WiFi services are even worse. I do...
