The MTN Turbo Net is a new device that was introduced by MTN Ghana to its customers in the country.
The device was launched by the telecom company to provide its customers with faster and less expensive 4G internet access in their homes.
The device was released as an alternative to the MTN fiber broadband which was already in existence.
The device was released in 2019 after it had been on the market selling for some time already.
