Airtel Nigeria is enhancing home entertainment with the launch of its Smart Router, a 4G router that connects up to 10 devices.
The Airtel Smart Router uses both wireless and ethernet connections to provide users with a smart TV experience directly through their television screens.
With built-in applications, users can easily access popular streaming platforms such as Netflix, Hulu, and Showmax, enhancing their viewing experience with personalised and current content.
Commenting on the launch, chief commercial officer, Airtel Nigeria, Femi Oshinlaja, said the new Smart Router represents a major leap forward in how people experience entertainment at home.
“With the Airtel smart routers, we can now deliver affordable and superior entertainment content from multiple streaming services to the home of many Nigerians without a non-smart TV set. By integrating advanced connectivity and a user-friendly interface, we are offering our customers the ability to unlock a world of digital content directly on their TVs,” he said.
Offering seamless connectivity and access to a wide range of digital content, the Smart Router, which is SIM-based and 4G capable, can support a mix of entertainment, security, work, and leisure devices all on the same internet subscription.
“Users can connect smart cams, smart doorbells, tablets, smartphones, laptops, and TV at the same time,” Oshinlaja noted.
Prospective users can purchase the Smart Router online for N25,000. The purchase includes unlimited data for 30 days and a 100% bonus for six months when they recharge the N10,000 – N15,000 bundle.
These bundles can be purchased via Airtel.com.ng/HBB, *370#, bank apps, Quickteller, or any other airtime/data purchasing apps.
