MTN Fixed LTE/LTE-A Speedtests

No that sounds like a router issue.

On Afrihost LTE you get a public IP on the wan port and port forwarding should work if configured correctly in the router.

Who to contact for help?Afrihost tech dept?
I followed instructions to a T but still get same error when adding an address of a local device behind router for port forwarding for a virtual server in router settings page.
It's an official AH supported router the B618.

You can log a call back for someone to assist or you can just send me a pic of the error you are getting.

Is anyone still getting above speeds in April 2021 ?

Yep, on Süpersonic here - averaging 50mbps with peaks at night of around 100mbps

Anybody on uncapped? What speeds are you getting?

Yes ,upto 260Mbps down and up to 50Mbps upload . 100 daytime and more after hours. It's incredible to say the least. There are issues but not long enough to say am gonna cancel.

The ping could use an improvement . It's the next best choice if no fibre or xdsl in the area.

You can always start with the bundles and upgrade to uncapped so your initial outlay isn't heavy .

What is the lowest mbps during the day ?

About 20mbps with higher jitter in the peak evenings due to congestion on multiple fronts, but that depends too. It's very sporadic for me

How long does the upgrade process take? Is it like a month, or instantly? I just ordered the 150/150GB option from Supersonic for R799, but I will upgrade to uncapped if necessary. I get +- 100Mbps when doing a Speedtest on my Cellphone.
