Does The Latest Airtel 4.5GB At N2000 Zaps Data?

Image
Well I know that you all will want to know whether the latest Airtel 4.5GB at N2000 zaps data since Airtel has been notoriously known for zapping data within a twinkle of an eye. In case you still don’t know, airtel recently step up their former android data plan that formerly offer subscribers 4GB at N2000, and so now you can get additional 500MB, which then brings it to a total of 4.5GB at still N2000. In the current fastest browsing network ranking between MTN, Etisalat, Airtel and Glo , we talked about how stable and fast the airtel network appear these days in many locations when it comes to browsing, and this can be a major reason why you might want to embrace the airtel network again. Another reason that will recently want to make you fall back to the airtel network is because of the current instability being witness all over on the MTN BBLITE tweak. Back to major topic of the day; yes, it is an android plan but works on all other devices without any speci...

How to know if your phone is an MTK device

Image
Before we delve into the topic of the day, it will be very important for us to first identify what MTK stands for and what it truly mean for the benefit of those who it might sound alien to. What does MTK stand for? In relation to this topic, MTK stands for MediaTek , and MediaTek is a well-known chip manufacturing company based in Taiwan that mostly outsources their products, hence they are regarded as Fabless companies. They specialize in manufacturing the Central Processing Unit (CPU chips) for wireless telecommunications, HDTVs, DVD etc. Their largest demands come from the Chinese mobile tech market. From that little description of MTK, you can deduce by now that when we say MTK phones, we are talking of phones that make use of MTK chips. Since MTK are largest suppliers of their chips to the Chinese mobile tech markets, it now tells us that most of the mobile devices produced in China are MTK devices. Note: I said most and not all, because there ...

Banks To Start Charging N50 Monthly For ATM Card Maintenance Fee

Image
Still in line with cashless policies, commercial banks in the country will start charging N50 per month as Naira ATM card maintenance fee starting end of this month. But contrary to what many bank customers think that the charges are uncalled for and consider it a way of extorting money from their customers, it might surprise you that prior to now and according to standard, banks have always charged annual ATM card maintenance fee even to the tune of N1,000 annually but many are oblivious of these charges, probably because it is being accumulated and deducted once annually. And not only that, customers are also unaware that the new card maintenance fee imposed is actually a slash down from the previous fee being deducted annually since banks will now charge N50 per month, now entailing annual accumulation of N600 per month as against N1,000. But the little difference now is that customers might now notice monthly deduction of this N50 card maintenance fee as ag...

Simple Ways To Remove Stubborn Netalpha Virus From Android Device

Image
If you are using android device and have any means within your reach to avoid it getting attacked by Netalpha virus, then we urge to apply such means. Netalpha virus is such a stubborn virus that can actually be downloaded unknowingly when downloading unauthorized app that is not from Google Playstore and that comes attached with the virus.

What this stubborn virus does is that it finds its way into your android system files and lodges itself in there as system app and then begins to cause havoc to your device. It will download and install apps by itself; switch on your WiFi and turn data by itself; the virus will minimise pages that you open by itself and sometimes will not even allow you pick calls. If by any means the Netalpha virus has found its way into your android device and your device has started malfunctioning as described above, then we believe the only thi...

How To Accelerate/Quicken Delayed Bitcoin Confirmation Transaction

Image
As Bitcoin becomes more and more prominent in the crypto-currency world and its value continue to rise day in day out, more and more transactions are continuously being carried in the different Bitcoin Block networks. Whenever Bitcoin transactions are carried out, in order to verify the authenticity of the transactions, stakeholders in the Bitcoin world that often source/mine Bitcoins popularly called miners often confirm such transactions ranging in numbers of 1 confirmation to multiple confirmations. As such, a Bitcoin transaction that is yet to get at least a single confirmation from those miners cannot be conclusively tagged a successful transaction because there are some situations whereby after some period of non-confirmation, the transaction is reverted. Now, a concern or question might be raised on why some Bitcoin transactions are often delayed to be confirmed by miners, because sometimes these delays in confirmation can last for hours and in some occa...

FEATURES OF TCP/IP

What are the Features of TCP/IP?   Here i am going to explain about what are the features/applications of TCP/IP. The industry was using TCP/IP around 35 years. It is a tested and proved protocol suit. 1: Multi-Vendor Support. TCP/IP is implemented by many hardware and software vendors. It is an industry standard and not limited to any specific vendor. 2: Interoperability. Today we can work in a heterogeneous network because of TCP/IP. A user who is sitting on a windows box can download files from a linux machine, because both Operating Systems support TCP/IP. TCP/IP eliminates the cross-platform boundaries. 3: Error Control and Flow Control. The TCP/IP protocol has features that ensure the reliable delivery of data from source computer to the destination computer. TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) defines many of these error-checking, flow-control, and acknowledgement fuctions.

INTRODUCTION TO TCP/IP

What is TCP/IP? Here you will learn what is tcp/ip. TCP/IP is a set of protocols[protocols suit] that enable communication between computers. Protocols are rules or standards that govern communications. If two devices in a network need to communicate, they need to use a common protocol. This can be compared with how humans speak. A French person cannot communicate with a vietnamese person since they speak different languages.  You can select from different network protocols to use in your network, but TCP/IP is the industry standard. Almost all operating systems now support TCP/IP. Internet is working on TCP/IP. TCP/IP is known as the language of the internet. If you want a computer to work on the internet, you have to use TCP/IP.  READ ALSO FEATURES OF TCP/IP
