Characteristics of the router from Tele2

If choosing suitable network equipment is difficult without specific “numbers” and static information, then why not go through the important characteristics and operating parameters of routers and routers from Tele2:

• Tele 2 3 G . Cost – 1899 rubles. Data transfer speed is up to 42 megabits per second, a 1,500 mAh battery (can cope with the load during a work week or similar time-intensive entertainment), the ability to connect up to 10 devices at a time and full support for mobile and Internet networks and standards (including including GSM with different frequencies and UMTS/HSPA+).
• Tele 2 4 G . An analogue of the 3G model, but already a WiFi router with a 4g Tele2 SIM card with increased bandwidth and battery, and the ability to cope with searching for information on the network and interacting with entertainment resources many times faster. Problems will no longer arise when watching streaming broadcasts or launching game content: due to the increased speed of receiving and transmitting data, even Ping will decrease!
• wifi Keenetic . No longer compact, but an extremely popular option for those who prefer even more functions for a very modest budget. Among the advantages are several operating modes (Tele2 4G Wi-Fi modem is capable of working as a router for L2TP and PPTP networks, is familiar with connecting to ADSL2+ and 3G-4G and is equipped with USB ports), 16 megabyte Flash memory for downloading firmware and the use of non-standard working algorithms.

Specifications

The 4G router offered by Tele2 is intended for use not only in home premises, but also in the country, in offices and commercial buildings. You can take it with you on a trip or outdoors. Detailed Specifications:

The device supports SMS, MMS and USSD. The kit includes a router with instructions for use and a warranty card for a year of service. Also included is a USB cable and charger.

Why do you need a Tele2 Wi-Fi router?

The router is useful to users in the following cases:

• If a subscriber uses mobile data to access the Internet, the device quickly uses up battery power. In this case, the charge controller fails due to high energy consumption. There are no such problems when using a wireless network;
• not all operator tariffs can allow you to surf the Internet for an unlimited time. As a rule, they include the following restrictions: traffic limit, reduction in data transfer speed when the service package is reset. When using a router and a separate SIM card for it, you don’t have to worry about running out of traffic;
• When using 3G technology, it is not always possible to download large files. In some cases, this is due to low connection speed or exhaustion of the mobile Internet service package. When using a Tele2 Wi-Fi router, the download speed will always be high;
• if the subscriber uses an old phone, released before 2014, then there is no possibility of connecting to 4G. The router from Tele2 uses any network;
• If the wired Internet is unstable, then it is advisable to use a router. In this case, you can connect an unlimited tariff;
• You can install an access point anywhere: in an apartment, country house or industrial premises.

Is there a difference between a “Tele2” modem and a router?

Table of differences between the Tele2 Wi-Fi modem and the router:

Router and modem

Technical characteristics comparison table:

Important! The main difference in Tele 2 (a Wi-Fi router from a modem) is that you can distribute the Internet to several devices. The modem only works from the computer

It is identical to a modem only in that both require a SIM card from a mobile operator.

Advantages and disadvantages

The Wi-Fi router from Tele2 meets all the parameters that apply to modern equipment. Its price does not exceed the cost of similar devices from other providers. Other advantages of the router:

• distribution to a large number of devices;
• Wi-Fi Tele2 does not require pulling a wire;
• can be taken with you on trips;
• synchronization with any type of computer equipment is available;
• Wi-Fi Tele2 provides high data transfer speeds.

The disadvantages include the fact that the router does not consistently distribute the Internet throughout Russia. This indicator depends on the remoteness of settlements and coverage area.

Tele2 4G router: instructions for entering the configuration page

Before interacting with the already familiar web interface, located at the address (and in rare cases, it will do: the exact URL links are indicated by the manufacturer in the instructions for the purchased equipment), you will have to prepare.

First, find the label on the back cover of the mobile router or portable router and see what data the operator or provider provides. In addition to the network address (SSID), a password and login are often also specified for authorization in the proprietary web interface. Often information is displayed in the form of a combination of admin - admin, but there are exceptions. Therefore, it is important to take care of searching for confidential information in advance.

Important! If you can’t find any labels or instructions, you should contact technical support at 611 for help.

How to proceed further depends on the desired result. If you need information on the amount of traffic spent and remaining, the operator recommends looking at “Statistics”. To select the network name, change WiFi parameters and password, the “Settings” section is suitable. There will also be a subsection related to updating the firmware, unlocking regional restrictions and choosing a notification system.

Despite the empty assortment of the online store, the telecommunications operator Tele2 does not force subscribers to look for suitable network equipment from competitors or worry about missing functionality and low speed. Three models (a pair of Wi-Fi router Keenetic) easily cope with the tasks and can save you from boredom, help with work and provide access to entertainment content even far from the city and where there are problems with signal reception.

How to choose a tariff for a router

The Tele2 Wi-Fi router is one of the network equipment that cannot do without specially adapted tariff options. Within Tele2, providing access to the network on routers and routers is covered by the “Internet for Devices” tariff with a monthly subscription fee and per-second billing.

• 15 GB . Cost – 350 rubles per month. It is activated once in your personal account or on the official website.
• 25 GB . Cost – 450 rubles per month. Suitable for those who spend a lot of time online and often access streaming services, including those from the Tele2 provider.
• 40 GB . Cost – 600 rubles per month. Not unlimited, but the most capacious option, designed for those for whom every megabyte spent is important.

Note! Each of the tariffs assumes the availability of unlimited traffic at night (from 00:00 to 06:59) and the transfer of the remaining megabytes and gigabytes to the next month.

The provider offers to connect one of the listed variations depending on the tasks: if you cannot do without live broadcasts in Full HD and downloading files, then 40 gigabytes may not be enough. But for communication on the network, 15 is enough. But “Tele 2” 4G routers with unlimited tariffs still cannot be found - perhaps in the future the collection will be replenished with suitable offers, but for now we just have to wait.
