This bundle is now removed from *138# and the MyMTN app, but there's 92.88GB for 350GHS.
The 4G Bonus now requires that the bundle be bought with MobileMoney in the MyMTN app.
Place the device on 4G and do not gift the bundle.It is OK if it temporarily switched to 3G or 2G during the use of *138# or *170#.
If you are not given the 4G bonus, you will be given it later. Alternatively, contacting the network may have you granted the bonus earlier. Even without that, you'll eventually be given the bonus.
Even if it's purchased with 4G, the bundle can be used on 3G or 2G.
The bonus expires after 1 week, precisely 168 hours after purchase. Quite like how milk expires: after a week or so, you'll have to dispose of it all no matter how much is left.
The216.47GB part of the bundle no longer expires after a month. The bundle is valid without expiry and can be used as long as the number does not expire. Where inactivity is expected, you can request an extension here: *1390# *550#
The speed being experienced cannot be directly compared with other networks, speeds vary and due to how cellular networks work, sometimes your speed cannot be improved without damaging the speed of others. Other networks may then provide good performance to only the others.
MTN can operate up to three 4G networks at the time of posting with these maximum download speeds: 150Mbps, 112.5Mbps, and 37.5Mbps. Multiple networks can be combined, the device must support 4G+ for the signal used by MTN. This is the fastest maximum mobile network speed widely available in Ghana.
150Mbps is 18750KB/s (*1000/8). If no other phones or modems are nearby, by being on a specific part of the coverage, this speed is achieved. Sometimes, this "specific part" may not be available.

With phones or modems that are more expensive, a more up-to-date explanation of speeds is available here.
The tower includes a cable or dish (not aimed at the sky) that connects it to the Internet. Coverage has been at times preferred over the quality of this, at times the 4G cannot be used at its full capacity.
Net Neutrality does not apply to the network. The network will lower performance of non-https content when it is congested. It can be a significant reduction. This can include gaming and system updates. Restarting the device or restarting with Airplane Mode can lead the user to a part of the network that isn't congested.
Here are details according to a modem that supports viewing settings sent to the modem. It is not guaranteed that your modem would receive the same settings. Though all modems get sent these, it is rare that a modem would display these, don't expect to be able to view it. The bundle offers a high maximum speed.

Sometimes, an AMBR can be a suggestion instead of a true limit.
A NAT Type can influence gaming (especially on consoles) and voice. The NAT Type without any additional routers is: Independent Mapping, Independent Filter, random port, will hairpin. Consoles can show a NAT Type.
A DNS Cache is available. A Cache for some Google services is available. This can improve performance of the first website loading and Google services.
Speed, latency, and battery efficiency not based on the bundle can vary. This isn't a weakness of the network, but how all networks work. You are advised to buy a smaller bundle and try it in places you'll use it in before committing.
The bundle may also be known as 200GB for 400 Ghana Cedis.
APN settings: IPv4 Only, specify "internet" as the APN or other content.
