Installing software - device drivers

When purchasing a device – a USB modem from Beeline – you can still connect this option to a new number, such as “Highway” in the store, with the help of the seller. This is a popular service that is installed on many communication devices to increase Internet traffic up to 20 GB per month plus overnight unlimited in addition to the basic offer. To make the modem work, you need to install it on your laptop. To do this, insert the flash drive into the USB connector and wait for it to be detected as a new device - optical disk . If the automatic appearance does not work, you can open it manually through autorun - the Autorun.exe file in a new, defined drive. The installation of the program will begin immediately. In the pop-up windows, you read the terms of the agreement, check the box to agree and indicate the installation path on your computer. The installation takes some time while the drivers are loaded. The procedure is intuitive and does not pose any difficulties for entry-level users.

Setting up a 4G network for Beeline on a modem

Additionally, you do not need to enter any settings, since all the data for authorization on the network is already built into the USB modem.

• Profile: beeline
• Call number: *99#
• APN: internet.beeline.ru

However, in order to start working on the Internet, unlike the MTS 4G modem, one action will still need to be done - activate your account balance. When purchasing a tariff plan, you deposited a certain amount, which will be credited to your account and which can be spent on mobile Internet services.

If the pop-up window does not appear, then open the menu “Account Management - Activate Starting Balance”. And click on the “Activate” button

Next, go to the “Connection” section and click on “Connect” to activate the Internet on the USB modem. After this, the computer or laptop will be able to access the World Wide Web. You can control consumed mobile traffic on the “Statistics” page

Setting the modem speed to maximum

If during installation you find that the Internet speed drops and constantly switches to more stable 2G networks, you can fix the problem by overclocking the modem. Increasing the speed will lead to better performance and the Internet will be more convenient. To perform better, you need a strong signal. Mobile devices work best where the network signal from the base station is most stable and strong . By default, the modem will connect to a 2G network if it detects one, even if it is initially marked as WCDMA, and this reduces the possible speed. To make the modem faster 3G in the settings of the modem program when the Internet is turned off . If your modem supports a 4G , then check the box - “Only WCDMA and LTE”. The modem should be registered with new parameters in the high-speed Internet network, which happens automatically in the windows that appear. Next, connect to the Internet and check the speed. Networks of the latest generations do not “catch” as well as 2G everywhere; this depends on the density of coverage by stations of the new level of communication. The devices will work better in open spaces, and in a room - near a window, where there are not many concrete barriers to the signal. To amplify the signal, antennas are also designed, which are purchased at points of sale of mobile devices and installed outside the premises.
