With the advancement in technology, wireless Internet connection should be very much possible through satellite transmission and we've seen Elon musk starlink building on such structure and although the undersea cables is still the backbone of the world's internet structure, wireless Internet connection is the only long lasting solution to the frequent break in internet connectivity.
I read recently that
Elon Musk's internet service company, Starlink, has slashed the price of its hardware by 45% in Nigeria. It sold around ₦800000 in this April but
now sold at ₦440000. The subscription cost ₦38000 per month for unlimited internet connection.
Let us see if the price will reduces further and which can encourage more people to buy. Also it will be good for those in areas that internet service through the water cables are poor. Also it will be good for those that have family and want them all to be using it. Aside that, I still prefer to use water cable networks. It will be good for those that use it for business, especially to provide Wi-Fi for people.
4.5 terabyte annually is ₦450000 for MTN, Airtel, and maybe others. That is ₦37500 monthly
Unlimited for Starlink is ₦38000 monthly
But some people do not need up to unlimited and which we reduce cost.
I do not think I will be able to finish using 2.5 terabyte annually.
I can send 5 gigabyte to anyone on MTN daily. Even if the person is another state in Nigeria
With Starlink, you can only use it where the Starlink router and Starlink satellite dish is.
