But the basic conditions cannot be ignored - in addition to a large selection of options, the MTS Connect 4 tariff has quite standard capabilities - a SIM card can be inserted into the phone or used as a phone via a USB modem. Main characteristics of the tariff:

How to connect and disconnect MTS Connect?

The cost of switching to a tariff is 100 rubles (0 rubles if more than 30 days have passed since the change, as well as when switching from MTS Connect tariffs of previous generations). To connect to a tariff plan, you can use one of the following methods:

• Change the tariff on your SIM card - to do this you need to send the command *111*307#.
• Purchase the MTS Connect kit, which includes not only a SIM card with the connected MTS Connect 4 tariff plan and one of the options, but also a 4G modem.
• Connect to a tariff plan through your personal account on the official website of the mobile operator MTS.

You can connect options separately, after switching to a tariff, using USSD requests:

• Option “Internet Maxi” – *111*161#
• Option “Internet VIP” – *111*166#

In order to disable a tariff, just change it to any other tariff plan.

How to find out the remaining traffic on MTS Connect?

Unfortunately, not all subscribers know how to check spent traffic, and therefore often encounter “unexpected” activation of speed limits. To prevent this unpleasant situation, you should use the commands *217# and *100*1# - the first allows you to find out the amount of remaining traffic on MTS Connect, and the second - the balance of paid traffic, SMS packages and free minutes, if any.

If you have already subscribed to the tariff, do not forget to leave your reviews and share your opinion about it, and if you are just planning to do so, read what those who have already subscribed think about it!

Internet

Internet traffic on this package offers unlimited Internet access at a speed of 4 Mbit/s. File-sharing networks only pass at a speed of 512 Kbps.

If the subscriber is not satisfied with the speed, he offers several solutions to this problem. Each solution involves connecting additional options:

• "Internet Mini"

This option offers the subscriber 3 GB per month, but does not in any way limit the speed of access to the network. If 3 GB is not enough for a subscriber, it is possible to connect additional services for an additional fee. The cost of “Internet Mini” is 350 rubles per month.

• "Internet Maxi"

The option is interesting not only because of the large traffic of 12 GB. By choosing “Internet Maxi”, the subscriber receives a separate 12 GB for using the Internet at night (from 01.00 to 07.00). If the traffic exceeds, you can always “press” the “Turbo button” and take advantage of additional gigabytes for a fee. The cost of “Internet Maxi” is 700 rubles.

• "Internet VIP"

By enabling this option, you don’t have to worry at all about the amount of remaining traffic, because the subscriber is given as much as 30 GB per month. And that is not all. From 01.00 to 07.00 you will find free and absolutely unlimited Internet. The cost of the package is 1200 rubles per month.

• "Internet for a day"

If you are not such an active user, but you still need the Internet once every few days, then the “Internet for a day” option is for you. You only need to pay for those days when you go online. You are given 500 MB per day. Internet fee per day – 50 rubles.

If you purchase a new card at the company’s showroom, then it is worth considering that the “Internet Maxi” option will be activated automatically.

How to activate the MTS Connect-4 tariff

In the Connect Manager utility, you can check the remaining balance, check the remaining traffic, and also send commands in ussd and sms format.

With a WiFi router, you first install a SIM card and connect the router to power, after which you connect to the access point through the control panel. In the appropriate line, enter the access address – 192.168.1.1. The default username and password is admin. After installation, change your password and name for security.

To switch to a tariff plan, use the following methods:

• Personal Area .
• Smartphone application "My MTS".
• Purchase a SIM card complete with or without a device at a communication store in your locality.
• Dial the short command *111*307#.

Creating a connection using a kit

To connect to the worldwide network, the owner of MTS Connect 4 should use equipment that supports 4g technology. One of these devices is usually offered in mobile phone stores as part of a starter package.

4g modem

If a 4g modem was purchased when purchasing the starter package, then the kit should be activated in this order:

• First, insert the SIM card into the slot intended for it, located inside the modem;
• Then connect the modem to the USB port of the PC;
• Wait until the drivers for the connected equipment and the Connection Manager program are installed;
• Click the “connect” button in the interface of this program.

In addition to the ability to connect to a 4G network, Connect Manager allows you to send SMS and USSD commands from your computer, as well as control the balance and traffic consumption.

Internet access via Wi-Fi router

Another suitable equipment for activating this tariff in order to obtain network access may be a Wi-Fi router. The connection procedure in this case involves the following steps:

• A SIM card is inserted into the router;
• The device is connected to the mains;
• The steps are performed to connect to the access point using the control panel, for which the standard address is used - 192.168.1.1, as well as the word “admin” as the password and login.

The advantage of using a router is that everyone who is within range of radio waves and has a Wi-Fi function on their device can connect to the network at the same time.

Other ways to connect to 4g

For the fourth MTS connection, there is also combined equipment that provides a high-speed connection. This device combines a modem and a router. Activation of the kit using it is carried out in the same way as in the case of a modem.

MTS Connect 4g is the basic technology with which the mobile operator provides the subscriber with a fast connection and maximum data transfer speed. It is worth noting that the owner of one of the latest tablet computer models that supports 4g technology does not need to purchase modems and routers. To access the Internet from such a tablet, just place the SIM card in the designated place and activate the appropriate option.

Tariff description

The MTS Connect 4 tariff assumes working with the Internet. Such SIM cards are primarily intended for a modem or router. Although the offer allows calls and SMS messages, the price for them is quite high. For smartphones and tablets, package tariff lines will be beneficial, although the SIM card will work smoothly on them too.

The offer price starts at 2,600 rubles, since it involves the purchase of additional equipment and starting traffic of 60 gigabytes. Without any other expenses, the user joins a tariff where each megabyte costs 3 rubles. To make using the Internet more profitable, you should enable one of the options.

Types of Internet packages

MTS Connect 4 users can afford to connect to one of the following offers:

You can connect one of these options using the USSD command. For mini, maxi and VIP tariffs, the commands are *160#, *161#, *166#, respectively. To activate the Internet for a day, you must use the combinations *111*67# or *111*1824*1*#.

Cost of additional equipment

Persons becoming MTS subscribers for the first time should take care of purchasing a starter kit, which, in addition to a SIM card, includes equipment, a tariff plan and one of the Internet packages. Available for sale today:

• 4G modem MTS for 2600 rubles;
• 4G router for 3300;
• 4G + router for 5900, which has the highest data transfer speed of 350 Mbit/s;
• 4G Wi-fi modem for 2900;
• universal Internet kit for 4900, providing only 30 GB of starting traffic.

To connect the router, you need to insert a SIM card into the device and connect it to power. The first connection to the access point is made through a standard login and password. However, for future use, it is worth changing the login word to a more complex combination in order to protect the limited traffic from random users.

Available internet options

To use the Internet profitably, you should enable one of the following options:

1. "Internet Mini". The option offers 7 GB of traffic at a price of 500 rubles per month. This is a small volume, because if you have high-speed access, you will want to download and watch movies, listen to music. This offer is for the most economical users.
2. "Internet Maxi". This package costs 800 rubles and has 15 GB. Plus, there is absolute unlimited access at night. This is more profitable and convenient, because “heavy” files can be downloaded at night.
3. "Internet VIP". For a monthly payment of 1,200 rubles, you can use the Internet with virtually no restrictions. 30 GB of traffic is provided for daytime use, unlimited at night. Plus, the subscriber can watch MTS TV with a 50% discount.
4. "Internet for a day." This service is suitable for those who do not visit the Internet every day. The price of a package of 500 MB is 50 rubles. The day in this option is counted from 3 am of one day to 3 am of the next.

Important! In options where night unlimited is provided, it is turned on during the time period from 00:00 to 6:59. To activate unlimited, you need to reboot the modem, that is, interrupt the current session.

Description of the tariff "MTS Connect 4"

The MTS Connect tariff itself is not very interesting. It does not include any packages, and communication prices are far from ideal. First of all, the options that work on this tariff are of interest. The fact is that these options will only work on the MTS Connect 4 tariff plan (some options are available for connection on other tariffs, but in this case the subscription fee will be higher).

The following options are of greatest interest:

• “Internet for a day”;
• "Internet Mini";
• "Internet-Maxi";
• "Internet VIP";
• “Internet 4 Mbit/s.”

Options vary in cost and amount of available Internet traffic. We will return to the mentioned options and make a detailed review of them, but now we will look at what the MTS Connect 4 tariff itself is. It is unlikely that anyone will use it without additional options, but it is necessary to know its conditions and typical prices.

Cost of communication services on the MTS Connect 4 tariff

The MTS Connect-4 tariff plan comes complete with an MTS modem and router. Depending on the device model, one of the previously mentioned options is connected. If you received this tariff together with a modem or router, then you are unlikely to be interested in prices for cellular services, because the tariff plan will be used exclusively for accessing the Internet. However, the MTS Connect tariff is not always used only in a modem or router. Many subscribers use it on their phones and tablets. If you are one of these subscribers and there is a possibility that a SIM card with a tariff will be used to make calls or send SMS, then you should definitely familiarize yourself with the prices.

The MTS Connect-4 tariff is characterized by the following prices:

• Subscription fee – 0 rub;
• Incoming calls – 0 rub;
• 1 MB of Internet traffic without additional options – 3 rubles;
• Calls to mobile MTS in your home region – 4 rubles;
• Calls to other networks in your home region – 4 rubles;
• Calls to landlines – 5.50 rubles;
• Calls to mobile MTS Russia – 5 rubles;
• Calls to numbers of other operators outside the home region – 14 rubles;
• Outgoing SMS to subscribers in the home region – 1.95 rubles;
• Outgoing SMS to subscribers in other regions of Russia – 3.80 rubles.

Please note: Prices may vary depending on the region. The data presented in the article is relevant for Moscow and the Moscow region

You can find out more information on prices relevant for your region on the official MTS website.

As you can see, the prices are not the most pleasant and without additional options the tariff plan is completely uninteresting. It is definitely not suitable for communication and there are other tariff plans for these purposes. We have already reviewed all MTS tariffs in a separate article. The picture changes dramatically if you connect one of the Internet options.

All about high-speed Internet on the MTS Connect 4G tariff

Improving services is the main goal of large mobile operators.
One of these, keeping pace with the development of progress, is MTS. Many people liked the opportunity from the operator for high-speed network access using the LTE standard. And we will tell you about all the features of the offer: modem, tariffs, conditions. Content:

• A few words about technology
• Set contents and features
• Available internet options
• Advantages and disadvantages

About the program and who it is suitable for

A modem is a convenient device for use with a laptop or computer. Sometimes a similar technique is used with tablets. But this option is very inconvenient and is rarely implemented.

A special plan was created for the modem. It has optimal conditions and is easy to use. Who is this program suitable for?

• People who actively use the services.
• You need to ensure stable Internet access.
• There is no output via the wireless network.
• You often use your laptop on the street, at school, in a cafe, and you want to have stable access.
• A special tariff is required for use in this technique.

There are many possible applications. Some people use the device as a backup solution. This comes in handy when your broadband goes down or when you're traveling.

There are other programs to use. For example, a company offers a plan for a laptop. Traffic on it is not limited, but the maximum speed does not exceed 4 Mbit/s. The downside is that the option is not available in all regions of the country.

Conditions and cost

Connecting to a tariff plan is free, you only need to pay for using mobile services and options. When purchasing a kit that includes a high-speed modem and a SIM card from MTS, the subscriber needs to pay 2,600 rubles.

Calls

There is no need to pay anything for incoming calls. The remaining prices will be as follows:

1. Calls to any numbers in your home region – 2 rubles/min.
2. Outgoing call outside the home region to MTS numbers – 3 rubles/min.
3. Conversations with subscribers of any operators in the country throughout the country – 12 rubles/min.

The tariff was created for the Internet, so you need to take a closer look at the main options that can be activated on the tariff.

SMS and MMS

Prices for SMS and mms messages are almost the same as standard tariff plans. The price for each message will be as follows:

1. Text message to MTS numbers within the home network – 1.7 rubles.
2. SMS to numbers of other mobile operators in your home region – 1.95 rubles.
3. SMS within the country, regardless of phone number – 2.5 rubles.
4. Message to other countries – 5.9 rubles.
5. Multimedia message – 9.9 rub.

How to bypass the speed limit on MTS Connect 4 torrent

One of the main problems for the company is the load on the networks. The number of subscribers using mobile Internet is increasing. Therefore, the company introduces additional restrictions for clients.

For example, it is impossible to download from torrents on the operator’s network. The system detects connections to sources and blocks access. Is it possible to cope with this problem?

There are a number of ways to bypass the blocking:

1. Encryption.
2. VPN.
3. Proxy.
4. Software

The simplest method is to use encryption systems. You need to open the application to download files, go to settings and activate the function. It’s not a fact that the operator won’t find a way to determine where the traffic is going.

VPN is a good option. The traffic is sent to a foreign server, and through it the site is entered. The disadvantage is low access speed; it will take longer to download files.

You can use a proxy. The HideME website has a list of currently available servers. Select the appropriate one, open the connection settings in the torrent client and enter the address. Most often, clients use this method.

There is third-party software for downloading files without restrictions. It allows you to quickly download and avoid torrent blocking. The downside is that the programs are not very secure. An unknown developer can embed malicious processes into the software.

It is better to use a VPN or proxy. The operator will not be able to determine the direction of traffic and limit it; it is possible to download torrents comfortably. But the speed may decrease, it depends on the selected server for connection, reliability of operation and distance from you.

Tariffication and prices MTS Connect 4G

With the launch of 4G networks, MTS Connect 3G was replaced by a new tariff that provides access to the Internet within a certain package. However, its essence has not changed at all - it allows you to access the Internet within the framework of one of the proposed tariff plans, which differ in volume and cost. The user himself can choose a package that is suitable in terms of volume, thanks to which he can spend his money rationally and not overpay for an unused amount of information. Users are offered different options - from ordering a service for a day with payment only on the day of using the Internet, to almost unlimited options designed for active and advanced network users.

There are several varieties of the MTS Connect 4 package - the description of the tariff will allow you to make the right choice:

• “Internet for a day” is convenient for periodic, not constant use. As part of the proposed tariff plan, the user is provided with 500 MB of traffic daily - if they are used up, Internet access stops. If necessary, you can use the Turbo button, which allows you to increase the amount of data used for an additional fee.
• “Internet Mini” allows you to use 3 GB of traffic for a month for a very modest fee - 350 rubles. This is quite enough to cover basic needs - visiting pages on social networks, studying news, watching short videos and photos, as well as searching for the necessary information.
• "Internet-Maxi" offers the user 12 GB of traffic to access various sites at any time convenient for them. 700 rubles is the monthly payment for the cost of the package.
• "Internet VIP" provides unlimited access to the network during the daytime. The allocated volume of traffic is 30 GB per month, the cost of the package is 1200 rubles.

To ensure periodic or permanent access to the Internet, it is best to use any of the MTS Connect 4 packages - the cost of the tariff depends on the selected package, which can be easily changed using the voice information menu.
