Why Your Glo BIS/Android Browsing is Slow and Possible Solution

The way people are complaining these days about Glo network being extremely slow and sharp network disappearance is alarming.

And I am already beginning to see that Glo is on the verge of taking over Airtel as the slowest browsing networks amongst the major four if it has not even taking over as we write.

You and I know that there is nothing very annoying as to browsing with a very poor and slow network, and for me, sometimes I just feel like breaking the SIM or even smashing my phone on the floor when the poor network persist.

Now, have you sat down and ask yourself why Glo network is becoming very slow these days, because I know that formerly it wasn’t this way, but as day goes by, Glo network gets people extremely frustrated.

Ok, let’s look at it this way; about 2 years ago, when people started discovering that Airtel BIS works on all devices without any special tweaking, during those period, undoubtedly, Airtel was one of the fastest network for browsing, to the extent that I even had to get myself unhackable Airtel modem, because I thought Airtel will blaze forever.

But what happened as time goes on? More and more people came in and started using Airtel BIS for browsing on all their devices, after which we all gradually started noticing a decline in its blazing speed, and when it became saturated with users, the speed now fell to zero level, until almost everybody then confirmed Airtel as the slowest network in town.

And again, not until Airtel finally nailed to the coffin their own network all by themselves last year when they started using mal-functioning calculator to calculate data rate and hence zaps internet data like hell and  immediately, mass porting away from Airtel network to other networks began.

Unable to withstand Airtel sluggish network and excessive zapping of internet data, almost everybody began to port and I myself was not left out as I joined the band-wagon of porters.

As I talk to you now, I am not sure that Airtel has recovered and till today many still dread the Airtel network and still see them as King Zappers.

Now, for that of Glo which is our major topic of discussion, ever since last year that the tweaking of android IMEI to that of blackberry IMEI emanated, the number of people that are now tweaking their android IMEI to BB IMEI in order to take advantage of Glo monthly BIS on Android is just alarming, and the network has no choice now than to slow down.

It is due to this massive congestion and over saturation of the Glo network by Android IMEI tweakers that is now causing the whole problem on Glo network and making it to be slow like snail.

If you could remember the initial time of Android IMEI tweaking to BB, when lots of people have not started tweaking, the Glo network when used with the tweaked android IMEI was very fast and if you dare tether it then to PC, the speed you get on your PC was out of this world.

But now that every Tom, Dick and Harry, including me are constantly tweaking and re-tweaking their android IMEI, Glo network speed is now an apology.

One funny thing now is that many folks then that ported away from Airtel, don’t know now that the Airtel browsing speed has picked up and blazing at considerable speed.

The possible solution to that of the now snail-like Glo network is when we begin to see many folks start porting away from Glo to other networks, then decongestion will take place and the network speed will pick again.

Another question now is; are people even ready to port away from Glo to other network as it stands now?

They will port only if other loophole on other network is discovered and if there is a kind of guarantee that it will last on those networks, because undoubtedly the Glo IMEI tweaking has really lasted.

Though with the emergence of MTN unlimited browsingon PC and Android for only N70 and also the newly discovered Etisalat unlimited browsing at N15 for 3hours, if they both last, hope is that there will be some migrants from Glo to those other networks and hence there will be evenly distribution of the population to these networks, and decongestion will occur on Glo network, which will definitely lead to increased speed.
