What is Airtel Router bundles ?
According to Airtel Nigeria, Airtel Router bundles are special data plans designed specifically for routers to deliver super fast internet experience on 4G network in locations that have 4G coverage. The bundles are locked to Airtel Router on 4G network, meaning that the data cannot be consumed outside of Airtel 4G coverage area.
So if you paraventure happens to purchase this you should be aware of it's limitations hence the need for this post
As defined whenever you are outside the perimeter or zones having the Airtel 4G network then your subscription and Router becomes useless and valueless.
The Question you need to ask your self is this; How many states in Nigeria are currently having the Airtel 4G network coverage no to mention Globacom, Etisalat NG and MTN Nigeria that are all struggling in terms of upgrading to 4G network too?
Additionally, even the 3G network coverage in Nigeria is nothing to write home about. If it's available, then there will be poor signal strength. Most times 3G speed from all the Service providers in Nigeria is very poor. Hardly would you get at least 1 megabytes per second speed.
My point is when purchasing this Router ensure you strictly follow the instructions and read the terms attached to avoid stories that touch.
In all this Router will assist those with heavy task on the internet that involves streaming or uploading data's and files of very large size.
