[QUOTE="Shamiso, post: 83073, member: 160"] Nigerian telecom bosses finally admitted cell towers fail constantly. The Nigerian Communications Commission opened a public chat regarding Satellite Direct-to-Device connectivity to patch massive coverage holes. This move aims to blast the internet from space directly into standard smartphones whenever local networks invariably collapse or simply do not exist in remote regions. Officials highlighted that bypassing ground infrastructure helps expand service into rural villages while providing backup whenever fiber cables snap. Keeping lines open for emergency responders during disasters also remains a primary selling point for adopting this orbital technology nationwide. Regulators released a paper outlining potential rules for spectrum allocation and sharing models between mobile operators and satellite providers. These proposals also touch on licensing requirements and technical standards to guarantee that consumer safeguards function properly within the new framework. The commission wants feedback from equipment manufacturers, industry operators, and regular citizens before finalizing anything. Interested parties can submit opinions via email or physical mail sent to the headquarters in Abuja ahead of the cutoff arriving next month. This push supposedly proves the agency intends to modernize the sector. Ensuring universal access to advanced telecommunications services seemingly remains the ultimate goal for the administration moving forward. [/QUOTE]
