MTS: what is it, how to disable it and how much does it cost

MTS content ban - what is it and who is it for? According to statistics, every second user has encountered the problem of uncontrolled systematic debiting of funds from the main balance. What made the situation difficult was that the subscriber didn’t even know what he was paying for. Sound familiar? It was viral content. That is, information that comes to your phone via SMS, system windows when typing combinations, and more. Next, the user accidentally or specifically agrees to receive mailings from dubious resources, which costs him from several tens to several thousand rubles a day. Fraudsters are willing to do anything to make money. And MTS has developed a special service for clients so as not to be fooled by this and save their money and nerves.

Traffic correction and tariffication

When changing parameters, a corresponding text notification will be sent to the subscriber's number. A one-time SMS message is sent if a new card is activated or it is moved to another device.

The company’s special device recognizes and processes customer requests in three areas:

• "Internet traffic":
• "MMS traffic";
• charging in accordance with the activated access point.

• Attention
• Promotions and options that reduce the price of traffic that are valid on the subscriber’s tariff plan will be retained.

Discounts and additional services that reduce the cost of traffic, valid on the number or available on the tariff plan, are preserved.

What is this?

This is the most popular question among MTS clients, so its essence should be revealed first.

This service is widespread; all subscribers of the big three cellular operators in Russia can use it. Access without manual settings MTS covers services: Internet, MMS, WAP.

After installing a new SIM in the phone, the network parameters are set automatically. The user is not required to manually configure anything. The service works on all cell phones with GPRS function.

The service provides access to the World Wide Web and MMS service. It is active by default and runs in the background. Many people are not even aware of its presence, but simply take advantage of the opportunities provided.

The main thing is that the “Mobile Internet” function is active on the telephone. At the same time, the MTS tariff used by the subscriber does not matter, because in almost all of them the service is activated initially.

The exception applies only to “TP” (tariff plans) connected by parents to their children, as well as corporate ones.

MTS was forced to take this step in order to protect customers from financial costs due to accidental consumption of traffic. It’s just that children, often unintentionally, when they get to various Internet pages, can uncontrollably spend a significant amount of traffic, for which adults have to pay.

Unfortunately, some employees of enterprises also behave like children when using corporate communications, which leads to unjustified financial expenses for employers.

Cost and connection features

The service is available to all communication consumers, as it is included in the general package of services. Used traffic and used multimedia messages are paid in accordance with the connected tariff.

You can connect in the following ways:

• dial the digital combination *111*2156# from a mobile phone;
• installation in your personal account;
• by calling customer support;
• by sending an SMS with the digital code 2156 to the short number 111;
• Apply with your passport to the representative office of the company’s network (you can find out the addresses and work hours on the MTS website).

There is no need to activate the service regularly; after a one-time activation, it will remain as long as the subscriber uses the same SIM card and mobile device.

• For your information
• If the user completes the connection procedure correctly, he will receive an SMS notification on his phone about the successful activation of the service.

If the mobile phone does not have access to a network with GPRS data transmission, the subscriber will be notified that connecting to the Internet service is impossible. In this case, you can make an outgoing call to the MTS hotline, where the first specialist to answer will help you connect the proxy. Consistently performing the necessary actions, after a couple of moments the settings are activated on the phone, and the subscriber will have access to the network.

Description

Access without settings allows subscribers to use the Internet or exchange MMS messages, even if the settings on the phone are not saved or are not working correctly.

The service works on all mobile phones and almost all MTS tariffs. The only exceptions are plans from the “Cool” family, as well as the corporate tariff “Nika”. The option applies throughout the country. The main thing is that such a service should be available in certain regions. This information can be obtained from your telecom operator or on the company’s website.

Access without settings will work if GPRS is available. The service cannot be used if there is no GPRS. In addition, the service will be automatically deactivated if GPRS is turned off.

The cost of using the option is provided free of charge. Subscribers will not need to pay for connection. In addition, the service does not charge a subscription fee.

Deactivating the option

Disabling is carried out in a similar way as activation. Few subscribers will decide to refuse this option, given how much it simplifies the activation of Internet network parameters and MMS messages. The exception will be sending SMS to number 111. The changes concern the text, the user must replace it with the following digital combination - 21560.

Affordable and fast Internet without installing additional parameters is the reality offered to customers by MTS. By activating the service, you can start using the World Wide Web and multimedia messages almost instantly.

Manual Internet setup

As was said, installing all the necessary Internet parameters with your own hands does not take people a lot of time and does not require special knowledge or skills. The only thing you need to keep in mind is the differences in the operating systems of smartphones and tablets. The actions that were performed in a gadget running Android OS may be very different from similar steps in iOS on an iPhone. Don't forget about Windows Mobile from Microsoft. If the location of the configurations differs, the final parameters will not change.

iOS (on iPhone, iPad)

How to connect and configure 4G Internet from MTS

If you couldn’t accept the automatic settings on your iPhone or iPad, you should enter them yourself. For this:

• Turn on the phone or turn off the lock on it.
• Go to its main menu and select the “Settings” icon.
• Select the “Cellular Communications” item and the “Data Transfer” sub-item.
• Click on the cellular network parameter and indicate the following values: APN: internet.mts.ru, login and password – mts.
• Save changes and exit the active menu.

Important! You should not change or delete values ​​in other fields. You only need to specify the APN and login with password. Otherwise, the phone will not be able to access the network, despite the seemingly correct parameters. It is worth saying that 4G and modem mode can be configured in the same way.

Setting up MTS Internet on Android

Android is unique in that each phone or tablet that runs on this operating system can have a different configuration path. They may even have different names. The same thing is observed in different OS versions. All this is due to the fact that each manufacturer has the right to add its own shell, interface and change the location of parameters.

In general, you will have to:

• Turn on your phone or unlock it.
• Go to the main menu of the gadget.
• Select the “Settings” or “Options” icon.
• Find the item “Mobile data”, “Data transfer”, “Mobile Internet” or something similar.
• Create a new APN access point via the context menu.
• Specify the following parameters: Name – MTS internet, APN – internet.mts.ru, login and password – MTS.
• Save changes and exit the application.

Important! All lines that have not been filled in or changed do not need to be touched. Adjusting them may result in the gadget not being able to access the network even if all of the above data was entered correctly.

Windows Phone 8

The same action can be done in the Windows Mobile operating system. You just need to follow these instructions:

• Turn on your phone or unlock it.
• Go to "Settings".
• Select the item “Data transfer”.
• Find the “Add a new APN access point” section.
• Enter the following values: APN: internet.mts.ru, login and password – mts.
• Save changes and exit the application.
• Reboot your phone.

Important! It is worth noting that not only phones running Windows Mobile require a restart to apply the settings. Any phone after such a setup needs to be rebooted. This is due to the fact that the gadget is re-registered on the network, but with new parameters that allow a person to access the network.

Other phones

The remaining category of devices is represented by a few phones from foreign and little-known manufacturers or outdated push-button devices. They are configured in the same way using standard GPRS and EDGE settings, which are completely identical to the configurations specified for Android, iOS or Windows Mobile. The only caveat is that you need to specify an additional GPRS transmission channel.

Important! If any difficulties arise, you can always call an MTS consultant on the hotline or come to the support salon in person. Experienced specialists will find and enter all the necessary configuration records in a few clicks.
