Regulating the speed of Internet access is only, at first glance, an unnecessary and useless procedure. In fact, its implementation will allow you to avoid any failures with logging into the network and minimize the risks of losing your connection at the most inopportune moment.
If computers independently cope with the regulation of high-speed flows, then this cannot be found in mobile devices. Today our resource decided to tell you what it is and how you can use the speed controller for Iota on phones and tablets. You can read more about the application for this operator and the features of its work below.
Yota modem tariffs
First you need to decide what the Yota Internet modem is for.
The simplest option:
- The modem is used for one computer or laptop with the operating system Windows, Mac Os, Linux.
- Such a modem costs 1900 rubles.
- The modem is connected to the USB port of a computer or laptop, which means that there must be one such free port on the computer (laptop)
- Can be tested within 7 days. If it doesn't work, you can return it in the packaging.
- 4G Internet, unlimited, but a simple Yota modem does not provide Wi-Fi.
- If necessary, you can install the Yota modem on another laptop, tablet, etc. But the modem only works with one device at a time.

Yota modem with USB extension cable
Of course, you can do without a USB extension cable. But it may not be possible to directly insert the modem into a USB connector on a laptop due to the non-standard dimensions of the modem; it is larger in size than a regular flash drive.
You can pay:
- month,
- for a day (24 hours) – 150 rubles,
- for 2 hours – 50 rub.
I mainly use the monthly option. In different regions the cost is different, for example, in Moscow the cost of Yota per month starts from 400 rubles. up to 1,200 rubles, in St. Petersburg from 300 rubles. per month up to 1,400 rubles.
What does minimum monthly payment mean? As can be seen below in Figure 1, with a minimum payment a small speed is provided - 320 Kbps for 30 days. With the maximum payment, maximum speed is provided for the entire month, around the clock.
But I don’t need fast internet 24 hours a day, so I pay the minimum price for a month and then manually adjust the internet speed.
If you move the slider to the right in your Yota account, then the Internet speed will increase. However, this will reduce the number of remaining days for using the Internet. The longer you use high speed, the fewer paid days will remain.
Rice. 1. Yota modem speed controller in your personal account
If you constantly use high speed, then the minimum fee paid for the month will end in about 6 days. The solution is simple: when you don’t need high Internet speed, move the slider to the left.
As can be seen in Fig. 1, in my case it is 320 Kbps for 300 rubles. per month. If you accidentally forget about this, turn off the PC and leave the slider at any other speed, then the paid period for a month will very quickly end, in about 10 days.
In fact, a lot can be done on a low Internet speed, fortunately it is available and unlimited. Therefore, you can move the slider in case of emergency, the main thing is not to forget to return it to the position corresponding to the minimum payment for the month.
Payment options for a day and for 2 hours are good because the Internet speed is maximum, the Internet is unlimited, but you won’t be able to move the slider, there is no such option. Exactly 2 hours will be provided and not a single second more.
It has been observed empirically that when using services that require high Internet speed, for example, Skype, the maximum speed of the modem is not the best solution. Because the modem may overheat, the Internet “falls off” and for some time the user is left without the Internet at all. You have to turn everything off, wait until the modem “cools down”, after which you can turn on the computer, start the Internet, life goes on...
Therefore, if it is possible to move the slider, the speed should be set slightly less than the maximum (not 1.400, but, for example, 1.200, 1.000 or 800).

The quality of communication usually does not deteriorate as a result, and provides great guarantees of trouble-free operation of the YOTA modem. And the modem does not overheat so much.
A nice bonus from Yota is the availability of the option of free Internet access, albeit at a very slow speed of up to 64 Kbps, but I have had cases when this opportunity was a big help.
Of course, not everything can be done at such a speed, but it’s still better than nothing at all.
After all, we were once content with a speed of 32 Kbps when we worked from telephone modems, but here it’s even 2 times more. And completely free, as well as unlimited!
Rice. 2. How to find out your Yota account number
There is another option on how to find out your number on Yota. When you pay for a Yota modem, you receive an SMS on your mobile phone indicating how much money has been credited to account number XXXXXXXXX.
How to check Yota balance?
To do this, you just need to go to your personal account. As can be seen in Fig. 1, you will see how many paid days are left and at what Internet speed.
As can be seen in Fig. 1, you can top up your Yota account in your personal account using. This is not always convenient.
In many
- Internet banks,
- in Yandex.Money,
- in WebMoney,
- as well as at terminals for paying for services
There is a tab “Payment”, or something similar. You can click on a tab, for example, “Internet” and look for the Yota icon (logo) there. And then all you have to do is enter your personal account number correctly, without errors, and indicate the amount to be credited to the account.
After this, you usually receive an SMS on your mobile phone stating that such and such account has been replenished by such and such amount. By the way, earlier, when I topped up my Yota account through the terminal, I found my personal account number in the previous SMS message about payment.
Yota support
By going to the Support section on the Yota website, you can find a lot of useful information. To do this, open the tabs of interest in the left column:
- "First steps",
- "Balance and payment"
- "Tariff offers"
- etc.
Each tab opens many questions with answers to them.

And I'll add a little tar to the barrel of honey. Unfortunately, the YOTA operator is not yet widely represented in our vast country. Not all regions yet have the opportunity to use the services of this operator. However, I already mentioned above about the Yota coverage map.
Now let's add honey again. In the same regions where YOTA is present, there is no concept of “roaming” for YOTA modems. Having started working, for example, in St. Petersburg, you can continue working in Moscow with the same cash balances in your account.

YOTA does not make any increase in fees for accessing the Internet for mobile users who are moving. This greatly simplifies life, which already has many other worries.

True, in Moscow Internet is provided at a speed of 512 Kbps for 400 rubles. per month, and in St. Petersburg 320 Kbps for 300 rubles. per month, so a small recalculation of the number of paid days still occurs. But it’s good that the account is not reset (I remember I was even surprised that this didn’t happen) and you can use the balance in your account.
In general, YOTA is a convenient service that provides a lot of opportunities for accessing the Internet without wires and other difficulties, but only in those regions of the Russian Federation where it is currently present.
Working baud rate
Yota provides high Internet speed to its subscribers, but even a good operator has problems and glitches. In order to make sure that data transfer is at a high speed level, you need to visit the “Personal Account” section on the company’s official website. In the section, select the required section and read the information that appears.
Important! If difficulties arise, you must contact a company specialist. Technical support will provide comments on the operation of the network and the current method of checking the frequency of the Internet connection. If the information displayed in your personal account does not correspond to the stated indicators, you must check the following factors that affect the speed of the Internet:
If the information displayed in your personal account does not correspond to the stated indicators, you must check the following factors that affect the speed of the Internet:
- The presence of virus programs on the device can lead to a loss of Internet connection speed.
- Disable all programs that automatically transfer data to the Internet.
- Make sure that the number of Internet users connected to the device does not exceed the norm specified by the provider.
How to distribute Wi-Fi with Yota
I used a simple modem for a long time, but life goes on as usual - I needed to distribute Wi-Fi with Yota.
Wi-Fi is convenient if you need to connect several gadgets simultaneously using the YOTA modem, including mobile devices that, moreover, do not have a suitable USB port, more details.
In order to distribute Wi-Fi, the Yota website offers different options. For example, there is an option with the ZyXEL Internet center. This Internet center is sold complete with a simple Yota modem.
To distribute Wi-Fi, you just need to insert a simple Yota modem into the ZyXEL Internet center. It turns out to be a mobile version of Wi-Fi distribution.
ZyXEL Internet center with connected Yota modem
YOTA also has a simpler version of the modem that can distribute Wi-Fi. This is a modem, similar to a modem that plugs into a USB port. And it looks similar, although it costs more (2,900 rubles). But this YOTA modem converts the received mobile signal into Wi-Fi, and computers, laptops and mobile gadgets access the Internet via Wi-Fi.
The USB port for such a YOTA modem with Wi-Fi is only needed to receive power. The port is used as a source of electricity. The signal from the modem does not reach the computer via the USB port; the computer connects to the Internet, I repeat, via Wi-Fi. Not a bad solution, but such a modem emits a rather weak signal that can only be received within one room.
That is why I chose for myself the option of using the ZyXEL Internet center. And for users who have enough Wi-Fi signal strength within one room, the option of using a YOTA Wi-Fi modem connected to a USB port will be quite acceptable. Including the price, since the price of such a modem is less than the cost of the ZyXEL Internet center together with the YOTA modem.
Additional options
When trying to increase the speed on a Yota modem, you can also test the operation of the modem in the application. Select "Statistics/Summary" from the pop-up menu. If you think that increasing the speed on a Yota modem is impossible, then we will tell you about antennas for strengthening the Internet.
These devices are usually purchased for a summer cottage or commercial building (office, store).
- Such an antenna is quite expensive, so it hardly makes sense to buy it just to use social networks or check email. At the dacha, such a device is justified, at least for watching movies on dreary evenings, but Internet companies, for example, are absolutely nowhere without high-quality communications.
- Its installation requires special preparation, and the equipment itself must be selected for specific conditions. That is, you can’t do it without a team of installers.
We hope our tips will help you!
On the computer
When using communication services via a modem, users are wondering how to remove the Internet speed limit. Using a modem, you can make it interact with a regular SIM card. To do this, you just need to change the IMEI values in the settings. Then, to bypass the limitation via a computer, you need to set the value TTL=65.
When the modem is connected to the computer, the value is decreased by one. The subscriber will be able to improve communication in this way by accessing the network via a modem. In addition, you can change the speed by installing an external antenna, which will serve as an accelerator. You can do it yourself by placing the modem in the center.

What is required to gain access to your Yota personal account
The most important condition is the presence of a SIM card from the operator. Your personal account (including your personal account) is a service for existing Yota clients. In the company's online store (https://www.yota.ru/store) you can place an order for a SIM card online. The operator offers SIM cards for:
- Tablet computer;
- Smartphone;
- Modems for using the Internet on computers.
Today, activating a card does not require any additional actions. After connecting the SIM card to the appropriate tray of the smartphone/modem, it will automatically work.
On the phone
The Internet provided by the Yota provider is high-speed, but subscribers are still trying to find a way to bypass Yota’s speed limits. As mobile internet usage increases every year, new ways to improve performance are emerging. To answer the question of how to bypass the restriction, you should first change your tariff plan.
In addition, an increase in indicators can be achieved in the following ways:
- configure your browser;
- use third-party software;
- optimize the connection.

Practice shows that it is possible to increase performance and circumvent restrictions.
Basically this can be achieved in the following ways:
- install an antenna;
- use special programs;
- change parameters.
Ways to bypass Iota restrictions for Windows
If you decide to learn how to bypass Yota restrictions via a computer or laptop, then you should first pay attention to the operating system, because each RAM has its own bypass methods. You can set up access to WiFi tethering distribution not from a smartphone or iOS device, but from a desktop PC, so it is quite possible to remove Internet limits on Windows. How to bypass carrier restrictions, step by step guide for Windows 2017:
- Go to the Start menu and type regedit into the search bar (standard launch based on administrative rights);
- Go to the registration section, which is called HKEY_LOCAL_MACYINE\SYSTEM;
- In the right corner of the panel, find the “Create” column (can be designated as DWORD);
- Set Default TTL to 65.
Restart your computer and you can start using unlimited mobile Internet via your PC.
Real indicators
The increase in Yota speed directly depends on the amount of the subscription fee. Users make their own decisions: how much to pay for the Internet and what speed is needed at the moment. You can change the terms of your tariff plan at any time using the Personal Account option. This is convenient: having paid for Internet acceleration, the client uses high speed for the required time, after which he switches back to economical mode.
You don’t have to pay for the Internet at all; the speed will be limited to 64 Kb/s, but the connection will not be lost. The flexibility of the tariff plan is the main advantage of the Yota operator. You can check your speed indicators around the clock using the Yota speed test.
Check Internet speed Megafon 4G
Megafon Internet speed can be checked or found out using several different methods:
- special programs and virtual measurement services;
- by calling Megafon technical support (the required data will be provided by the answering consultant);
- programs whose main purpose is not related to conducting tests (torrent).
The last approach is the least convenient and reliable, since the operator is able to set his own restrictions that prevent the use of high speed for downloading files through such programs. As a result, it will not be possible to obtain accurate, correct values.
The most convenient approach is 1, since it allows you not only to obtain reliable information about the conditions and quality of information transmission, but also to monitor the reliability of the connection over time. At the same time, subscribers will not have to waste time on testing, since the measurement process takes no more than a minute. The main thing is to properly prepare the equipment for the test so that potentially low performance is not influenced by third-party factors. A few simple steps aimed at preparing equipment for testing will significantly increase the accuracy of the results obtained.
Acceleration measures
How to increase the speed of Yota 4g? If the user is not sure about the signal strength and packet data transmission speed, Yota will provide a week-long test drive for any modem modification and guarantee a money back. During the testing period, the fast LTE network will show its full advantages.
Replacing the modem
If the modem refuses to receive a signal, you need to make sure that the model you are using supports LTE mode. The way out of the situation is quite simple - hand over the WIMAX modem and in return get a new one with an LTE network.
Iota for business: logging into your personal account
The mobile operator offers Internet and communication services to individuals and legal entities. Therefore, Yota has two personal accounts. For legal entities Personal account is located on the page https://b2b.yota.ru/. As such, legal entities do not need to register with the LC. To gain access to your account you must indicate:
- The name of the company, or its TIN (this data is in the Yota database);
- ICCID of one of the SIM cards, which is issued to the company.
What is ICCID? This is a unique card number. As a rule, you can find out the number in a smartphone with a connected SIM card in the “Device Information” section. The peculiarity of a personal account for business is that the legal entity. a person can specify a range of connected users. The head of the company has the opportunity to monitor the traffic of his employees and their calls.
