Etisalat have finally joined the league's of 4G LTE network providers in Nigeria, this is coming after some days Glo launches their 4G LTE network making Airtel the only ISP that hasn't left out. 

There was an uproar between Etisalat and MTN some months back due to the purchase of visafone, which made MTN to be the first ISP to lauch it 4G LTE network

However, the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) have change the 1800Mhz spectrum to make it possible for ISP to lauch their 4G LTE network without owning a 4G spetrum. 

If you're an Etisalat subscriber, you must have already noticed the strong network connection in your area, that's if you're in Lagos because the 4G  network coverage is only available in some part of Lagos unlike Glo 4G LTE network that is available in 9 cities,though the telcom providers have promise to expand it coverage to all state soon. 

Unlike other ISP's, you don't need to activate your etisalat SIM to start using the 4G LTE network as all Etisalat sim cards are Universal subscriber Identity Module,apart from this Etisalat 4G support other older 4G smartphone, which means there's no need to worry if your phone is not compatible. 

While we are waiting for Airtel to join the league of 4G LTE providers in Nigeria, kindly share your experience with us via the comment box  if you're among the few currently using the Etisalat 4G LTE network.
