@Morris_Monye If you are ordering directly via https://t.co/QqTGdTTioi you can just pay the reservation fee and await when @Starlink contacts you to pay the balance to fulfill your order.
This way you donโt have activation issues.
@Morris_Monye They are out of capacity in most Nigerian urban cities, this means that they need to launch more satellites to be able to onboard more customers in certain locations. Although business or enterprise customers might have a different activation experience to residential customers.
@SawyerMerritt@elonmusk this product will be a hit in Africa if you can add a miniature power wall that can power Starlink mini As power is a major issue in some African countries.
Simple: just add a rechargeable lithium ion battery that can last 24 hours on a full charge.
@Fosudo@Starlink kindly confirm what Nigerian Local Cards work with this service based on your latest payment processing update.. For example are verve cards accepted or Naira Mastercards
@FinPlanKaluAja1 ISPs will have to improve their data speed to match Starlink or loose their high paying customers to starlink. They will be forced to adapt and improve their services. Maybe this might force MNO's and ISPs to launch their own LEO satellites. NCC did good here.
@FinPlanKaluAja1 People are still yet to grasp the scale of optimization starlink is bringing to the market. Not having basestations that require diesel 99% of the time plus reduced opex and truly fast download and upload speed spread across the country is truly amazing. ISPs will be disrupted
@FinPlanKaluAja1 Russia fears no sanctions, theyโve already weighed their options before targeting Ukraine. Crimea annexation was an experiment and the western allies failed the test.
