Modem "MTS Connect": modems, drivers, tariffs, installation and configuration

We all know that mobile operators often, in addition to basic telecommunications services, also promote technological products. It can be, for example, mobile phones or communication modems, issued under the order of an operator company and equipped with its logo.

An example of such a course will be discussed in today's article. We will talk about what the MTS Connect modem is like, what are the advantages of the package of services, what are its features, how to configure the modem and use the Internet with its help.

Mobile Internet from MTS

To begin with, almost all operators provide mobile Internet services through their network, using dedicated frequencies to transmit the signal in 3G or 4G connection format. MTS is no exception. At the same time, the company already has a developed network of tariffs, which millions of subscribers have been using successfully and for a long time.

In addition to the fact that the signal from the provider is perfectly distributed throughout the coverage area, the company can also be praised for the qualitatively developed tariffication of services, thanks to which it is possible to enjoy the possibilities of mobile Internet connection at an acceptable price for most users.

Internet + modem

Another advantageous offer from the company, in addition to the available tariffs, is a comprehensive package of services, including a device for receiving a signal (modem) connected to the MTS network. Due to the fact that the company, along with the buyer of the modem, also receives a permanent user with its services, the cost of such a modem is significantly reduced. In particular, now there is even a constant discount that allows you to purchase a modem along with a customized package at a price of 1 ruble. Obviously, this can not but attract users and does not force them to purchase the MTS Connect modem. On what conditions mobile Internet services are offered to such subscribers, we will tell further.

3G or 4G rates

The company MTS in the set has several tariff plans, designed for one or more devices. These are plans for working on the phone, tablet PC, as well as tariffs for sharing on a Wi-Fi router, which will transmit the signal to other gadgets. Each of the plans assumes the availability of a certain amount of data available to the user for spending on the mobile Internet network for a fee.

Tariff "MTS Connect"

One of the tariff plans serviced by the company is MTS Connect. This is a universal solution, because in itself it includes several options that can be enjoyed by every subscriber. Accordingly, the fee and the capabilities of the participant of each of these plans are different. More details about tariffs read further.

Now the tariff plan is provided with the ability to work in 4G-networks. Thus, by connecting it, the user can only count on the most favorable terms of service.

The operator of MTS also, in addition to the promotion for those who want to buy a modem "MTS Connect", introduced a bonus recovery system. Within its framework, each user receives 20 percent of the cost of the communication services consumed by him for a month on his mobile account. Thus, we can talk about a small economy.

«For a Day», Mini, Maxi, VIP

Now we will examine in more detail the options that are offered within the tariff. There are four of them, the first is the "Internet for the day". As you can already guess by the name, with it your modem "MTS Connect" will provide access to the network for 50 rubles per day. The tariff will be beneficial for those who use the Internet access infrequently, because for those days that you did not work with him, you do not need to pay.

The second plan is "Internet Mini". The conditions here are extremely simple: pay 350 rubles per month of use, and in return receive 3 GB of Internet traffic without any connection speed limitations. After this limit is exhausted, the speed drops significantly.

Next are "Internet-Maxi" and "Internet-VIP". Within the first subscriber receives 12 GB of traffic at night and day, which are considered separately, for 700 rubles per month. The tariff is calculated for those who will use it round the clock, because it is most profitable to do so. As for the VIP option, its cost is 1200 rubles per month of use. As part of this plan, the subscriber receives an unlimited nightly rate and 30 GB of traffic for daytime work.

Modem for 1 ruble

As a special offer, the operator offers subscribers to buy a wireless USB modem that receives a 4G signal. According to the final account, its value will be 1 ruble. In this case, in fact, the modem MTS 3G "Connect" will need to pay 949 rubles. Of these, 948 will be written off as a payment for the "Internet for 14 days (VIP)" service. This means that for the next 14 days the subscriber can use the device without paying a surcharge. In the future, he has the right to switch to another suitable tariff plan (the features of each of which we have already described above).

Now let's try to figure out which settings of the MTS Connect modem need to be run in order to start using it immediately after purchase.

Customize

To work with the device you need drivers for the MTS Connect modem. You can download them on the official website of MTS, pre-selecting the model and brand of the device. Due to the fact that each of the modems has individual software.

After the drivers have been downloaded, we also need a compatible modem program for MTS Connect. With it, and will control access to the network - connecting and disconnecting the device, you can change some of the settings necessary for the modem to work.

It is important not to forget that as the new versions of the firmware are released, the device will need to be updated. This is also done with the help of software that can be found on the MTS website.

Capabilities

You can use your modem "MTS Connect" as you like. Tariffs show that it is possible not only to connect an Internet connection to your laptop, which will allow you to work in absolutely normal mode, as if it is a stationary network access.

First, this is due to the 4G data transfer format. Unlike third-generation communication, it provides for faster device operation. For example, this modem is capable of transmitting data at a speed of 100 Mbps. Thanks to this indicator you can download movies and serials in minutes, not to mention watching less cumbersome videos.

Secondly, a huge advantage of the VIP tariff plan, which connects for 14 days immediately after the purchase of the device, is unlimited Internet at night and 30 GB of traffic for use by day. This allows you to leave large file downloads at the time of sleep with the huge speed that 4G guarantees.

Thirdly, you can purchase an additional Wi-Fi-router and distribute the Internet to several devices at the same time. So you can, for example, in addition to a personal computer, synchronize the work of the phone and tablet.

«MTS Tablet»

Together with the USB modem, which we described in this article, users have the opportunity to get another tariff plan - "MTS Tablet". With it, the user receives mobile traffic of 4 GB, as well as unlimited access to television for 400 rubles a month.

In order to use the option, you will need to install the "MTS Connect" modem. You should also pay attention to the fact that such a service excludes the possibility of being on other tariff plans. And since it's a mobile Internet for working with a tablet computer, its volume may not be enough for a full user's work. Again, under its conditions, there is no unlimited Internet at night.

SIM card binding

An important nuance when buying a modem "MTS Connect" is a tight binding device to the cards of the operator MTS. You need to remember that when you buy it, you can only work with this provider - the modem is blocked to receive the signal from other networks, as this is unprofitable for the operator.
