You must set expectations. You will have reliable 4G/LTE coverage in the capital, Ouagadougou, and the main business city, Bobo-Dioulasso. However, once you travel into remote rural or northern regions, you must expect the signal to be intermittent (3G) or non-existent. This eSIM is for cities, not for deep field missions (for which you need a satellite phone).
