Wi-Fi routers MTS

The provider sells modems that support modern communication standards. 2G-4G routers with Wi-Fi support are on sale. To access wireless Internet at home, simply connect the modem to a LAN (twisted pair) or ADSL (telephone line) cable. An alternative option for accessing the network is the use of mobile traffic. The choice of one connection method or another depends on the type of device.


The company sells devices that meet the basic needs of consumers.

A special feature of the MTS router model range is the software. The software content is selected according to the type of processor built into the case. Standard models are equipped with a user interface with a small set of functions. Routers with “intelligence” have advanced settings. In addition, the quality of communication on modems with smart hardware is maintained at the same level. The user receives a stable Internet connection without interruptions or freezes, and high connection speed.

For active viewers, MTS offers a special line of routers with IPTV tariffs. All models support wireless Wi-Fi for TV and have a port for connecting an Ethernet cable.

For those customers who need constant Internet on several devices, MTS offers to use multi-channel routers. Their body is equipped with ports for connecting to a Wi-Fi TV, computer or other device. The number of connectors can be increased using special adapters.

The main parameter of modems is the Wi-Fi standard. MTS uses 2 latest generation protocols:

  1. 802.11 "b, d, n". Operates at a data transmission frequency of 2.4 GHz. Standard modems are capable of picking up signals over a large area. Broadcast reception occurs with interference if there is a physical barrier (wall) between the router and the device. These types of routers can slow down internet speeds when other electronics and sensors are turned on.
  2. 802.11 "ac". Operates in a range with a more stable connection. A constant signal is maintained through an additional 5 GHz connection frequency. When the network is loaded, communication is redirected to the desired range. Routers of this type are actively used in apartment buildings, where everyone is connected to a common frequency of 2.4 GHz. Setting up ranges allows you to access fast Internet bypassing a busy network.

MTS offers routers that operate in 2 frequencies at once and automatically prioritize the network depending on the load. Such models are more expensive, but the quality of the connection received can be compared with cable Internet.

The range of routers is represented by a small assortment of devices popular in 2021.

Tariff for MTS Connect 4 modem

Before purchasing a modem or router, it is advisable to read the description of the MTS Connect 4 tariff, which is included in the package. The cost of MTS Connect 4, which is sold together with the modem, is 2,600 rubles . It is recommended to immediately select one of the options for the Internet, since without active services the subscriber pays 3 rubles for each MB of traffic.

The tariff plan is designed for data transfer, and making calls will be less profitable. Thus, outgoing calls to MTS numbers and other operators in your home region will cost 4 rubles per minute. Calls to landline numbers - 5.5 rubles per 1 minute, to other regions of Russia on MTS per minute - 5 rubles, to numbers of other Russian operators - 14 rubles per 1 minute.

Advantages and disadvantages

It is impossible to say with 100% accuracy that the “For Laptop” tariff will suit absolutely everyone. Of course, the option has both advantages and disadvantages. It’s worth discussing them in more detail when describing the services that are included in the TP, but for now we’ll just list the most noticeable pros and cons.

Pros:

  • Network access via any device with a USB Type-A connector.
  • There are no restrictions on the amount of traffic.
  • Possibility to use communication services.

Minus:

  • Data reception speed is limited to 4 Mb/s.
  • The cost of communication services is higher than regular tariffs.

This is what the main advantages and disadvantages look like. Next, let’s look at what a person gets by connecting to a tariff plan.

Tariff For laptop

This tariff is intended for a laptop or modem. Unlimited Internet, but with some reservations and restrictions.

The cost for the first 3 months is 590 rubles/month for Moscow and 450 for other regions.

How to disable

There is nothing complicated about disabling a tariff plan. Here, too, it will take from one minute to several hours, depending on how the person wants to deactivate. The fastest option is to simply switch to a different tariff. In this case, the client will remain with MTS.

To switch to another tariff, it will be most convenient to use the personal account interface. It is available on the operator’s website and in the operator’s mobile application. In the section of the same name you can find the tariff you are interested in and activate it with one touch.

Anyone who does not want to continue using MTS services can do one of two things:

  • Wait until the operator blocks the SIM card after 3 months of inactivity.
  • Personally contact the company office and terminate the contract.

Of course, the first option seems to be the most convenient. But within 3 months, while the SIM card is lying idle, attackers can get the number and connect paid services. Therefore, it is recommended to personally contact the MTS office to terminate the contract.
