The MTS USB modem is a great way to connect your laptop, computer or any other device to the 3G/4G mobile Internet. The reason for the popularity of USB modems is very simple - absolutely no wires are needed to connect the modem. You simply insert the modem into the USB port of your PC, laptop or router, and enjoy high-speed Internet from MTS. Unlike Wi-Fi, you can use a USB modem anywhere, no matter where you are. With a USB modem, 3G/4G Internet will be available almost throughout Russia, in the same places where there is voice communication MTS. Access the Internet via 3G/4G from MTS with via USB You can use a modem at home, at work, in the country and even on the road. The MTS SIM card, which receives and transmits the 3G/4G signal, is inserted into a special connector inside the USB modem.

Any modem that you can buy in this section of the GSM-Repiters.RU website is guaranteed to work with the MTS network. This has been verified by numerous modem tests by our engineers.


Which USB modem is better - MTS branded or universal?

Are there any differences between universal USB modems and MTS branded USB modems, which can be bought in MTS branded stores? USB modems MTS are actually ordinary universal USB modems from Huawei and ZTE (which you can buy on our website) with the MTS logo printed on them. MTS branded USB modems are configured in such a way that they can only work with MTS SIM cards. This blocking allows MTS to be sure that only MTS subscribers will use the modem. This approach is not very convenient for modern users 3G/4G Internet. And this situation is not even corrected by the price of a branded modem, which is often lower than the price of a Huawei or ZTE modem, by blocking which this branded modem was created. We offer to buy a USB modem without being tied to a cellular operator. You can use such universal modems presented on our website with a SIM card from absolutely any operator. Why is this versatility so important?

  • With a universal USB modem, you can choose the operator that will offer you the most interesting price for 3G/4G Internet
  • When traveling or abroad, you will simply need to change your MTS SIM card to a card from a local 3G/4G operator (if this operator operates in the same frequency range)


Six great reasons to buy a USB modem:

  • 3G/4G USB modem no larger than a flash drive, easy to carry
  • All USB modems in this section of the site are guaranteed to work with the MTS network
  • You can change the MTS SIM card to a SIM card of any other operator, and the USB modem will continue to work
  • The LED indicator on the modem clearly displays the connection status
  • WITH USB installation Anyone can handle the modem - when you connect it to USB for the first time, the modem will install the software necessary for its operation
  • For SIM cards through which the USB modem connects to the Internet, MTS offers special tariffs at competitive prices. These prices differ markedly from regular prices for mobile internet MTS in tariffs for smartphones and phones.


MTS 3G/4G signal is not strong enough?

Distance from towers and MTS and buildings made of shielding materials lead to a drop in the 3G/4G signal level. Such a drop leads to a decrease in 3G/4G Internet speed or makes it impossible to connect to the network. In such cases, we recommend purchasing a special MTS signal amplification system. The easiest way to ensure stable and high-speed MTS Internet on a modem is to connect a compact antenna to it. If this is not enough, you will need to buy a more “serious” system, consisting of a USB modem, a powerful external antenna and special connecting cables. The external antenna will need to be placed in the place where the most stable and strong MTS signal is observed.

MTS offers customers many different options and tariffs. The operator has also developed special offers for the modem. Below we will consider what MTS tariffs for a modem exist, how you can connect to them and what is better to choose?

The operator’s official website presents not only tariffs with services, but also the range of available modems. At the moment, the client can choose a specific model depending on the category:

  • 4G modem. Provides access to the Internet, speed reaches 150 Mbit per second. Having purchased the device, you will receive a SIM card with the Connect-4 plan already installed. Special packages will also be available - 100 GB for a day, 60 GB for two weeks. It will cost you 2600 rubles.
  • 4G WI-FI router. Price – 3300 rub. In the kit you will find the router itself, a SIM card that gives the subscriber 100GB per day and 60GB for 14 days. The Internet is available at the same speed as on a modem - up to 150 Mbit/s.
  • 4G WI-FI USB modem. This is a newer and improved device that includes Wi-Fi. You can connect up to 10 gadgets at a time. The cost for this modem is 2900 rubles.

Please note that the first 100GB package intended for a day is automatically spent first. Then the second option will be consumed - 60GB.

All prices are approximate. The cost depends entirely on the location, namely the region. For example, in the Tyumen or Moscow regions, prices will vary. The same applies to tariff plans and additional services.

MTS tariffs for 3G modem

Connect 4 is considered the standard plan. But there are also other MTS Internet tariffs for a modem. First, let's look at the description of the offer.

Connect 4

It is an excellent solution for people who actively surf the Internet, listen to music from various resources, watch TV series, play or work. The plan itself is divided into two options:

  1. If you refuse auxiliary options, including the gigabyte package. Then 1MB will cost 9.9 rubles.
  2. Plan with activated services. It is recommended to immediately connect the necessary traffic packages - this way you will significantly save on Internet use. All options are renewed automatically, the main thing is that the balance must be positive.

A SIM card with a tariff can work in a modem for a laptop, tablet or phone. If the subscriber uses it on a smartphone, then the following costs are taken into account for calls and SMS:

  • Conversations that take place within the home region will cost 3 rubles per minute.
  • Calls to MTS numbers within the country are also 3 rubles. If you call subscribers using the services of other operators, then a minute will cost 12 rubles.
  • Sending one SMS – 1.05 rubles. If you send a message to another region – 1.95 rubles.

There is no charge for incoming SMS and calls. The tariff is included with the modems and is available for a separate connection. Let's see how to authorize a plan:

Hello. I used a SIM card in my phone. Now I want to use it in a 3g modem. How to switch to a modem tariff and connect the Internet with TV channels

Hello, through the communication salon.

As part of this review material, the MTS 3G modem will be considered. This device is universal and can work with both 2G and 3G cellular networks. When connected directly to a personal computer, it turns into a regular wireless modem. But if it functions separately, then it is a portable access point to the World Wide Web. It is this universal and at the same time accessible technical solution and our material is dedicated.

Equipment

The one discussed in this short review has the following equipment:

  1. Mobile hotspot with installed battery.
  2. Warranty card.
  3. Complete user manual in paper form.
  4. A proprietary interface cord, with which this device can synchronize system unit PC or charge via power adapter.
  5. Tray for installing a SIM card mobile operator.
  6. Starter package.
  7. Power adapter.

It should be noted that the above list does not include a CD. But the need for its supply automatically disappeared for the reason that the drivers, control software of the cellular operator and documentation are recorded on the memory chip integrated into the modem. As a result, there was no need to duplicate this same information on a separate medium. In addition to this, the majority modern computers are no longer equipped with drives for reading information from CDs.

Specifications

The MTS 3G modem with an integrated Wi-Fi transmitter, considered in this review, boasts the following technical specifications:

  1. Wired USB port Designed to charge the integrated battery. You can also use it to synchronize your device with any personal computer and thereby turn it into a regular Internet access point.
  2. List of supported standards cellular communications includes 2G and 3G. In the first situation, the highest speed can be 500 kbit/sec and the device operates successfully in both GPRS and EDGE modes. In the second case, the peak information exchange can already be 7.2 Mbit/s for downloading and 5.76 Mbit/s for uploading and UMTS technology is supported.
  3. Built-in Wi-Fi transmitter allows you to connect up to 5 mobile devices to this modem.
  4. The type of installed SIM card is micro (standard). If necessary, you can put a USIM card with 4G support in the tray, but this will not give much benefit for the reason that the list of specifications of this mobile device does not include LTE technology.
  5. Time battery life on one battery charge - 6 hours.

Modem functionality

Essentially, this solution can operate in one of two modes. The main one is the mobile point. In this case, the portable router turns into a kind of gateway. On the one hand it is connected to cellular network and with its help exchanges information with the Internet. Moreover, the choice of one or another signal occurs in automatic mode. On the other hand, up to 5 mobile subscribers can be connected to it, and the traffic consumed between them is distributed depending on their needs and capabilities.

An alternative use case is a fixed access point directly connected to the computing system. In this case, the hero of this review communicates with the cellular network, and the Wi-Fi transmitter is deactivated.

Internet tariffs for MTS 3G modems currently include a fairly large amount of traffic, but their monthly subscription fee is quite affordable. That is, such devices are excellent for widespread use. And both at home and in the office.

Setting procedure

The MTS 3G modem is configured as follows:

  1. Unpack the box and remove the device from it. Then you need to remove the tray from it.
  2. Next we extract from starter pack SIM card We install it in the tray and return it to its place.
  3. We turn on the mobile hotspot and wait for its initialization process to complete.
  4. Using WPS technology, we synchronize consumers and this model of a portable stand-alone modem. After this, the mobile network is configured and ready for use.

In case of connection with a PC, it is necessary to install an additional set of drivers and diagnostic software. Then, using the latter, a connection to the World Wide Web is established.

Checking the functionality of a mobile access point to the World Wide Web

Unlimited Internet, an MTS 3G modem and the presence of a cellular network signal allow you to access the Internet almost anywhere. After the previous setup, you need to check the functionality of the created Wi-Fi coverage. To do this, on any connected device, simply launch the browser and go to any information resource. The Wi-Fi transmitter must first be activated on the latter and synchronized using special WPS technology. Experience shows that today the operator has minimized human participation in the process of setting up the router. Therefore, the likelihood of an error occurring in this case is minimal, and no problems should certainly arise.

Tariff plans

The following MTS tariffs for a 3G modem are currently current:

  • The basic one is “Internet Mini”. In this case, the subscriber receives 7 GB of traffic per calendar month at the highest possible speed. The monthly fee is 500 rubles per month. Upon exhaustion of the previously given limit, 150 rubles will be debited from the account, in return for which 1 GB of traffic will be provided.
  • The mid-level segment is occupied by the Internet Maxi tariff. In this case, the monthly fee increases to 800 rubles, but in return the user receives 15 GB of traffic for the same calendar month. Moreover, from 00:00 to 7:00 the volume transmitted information not taken into account. That is, 15 GB are used only during the remaining time of the day. If you exceed the 1 GB limit, as before, it will cost 150 rubles.
  • The greatest opportunities in terms of the volume of transmitted data and information are provided by the “Internet VIP” tariff plan. When activated, the user receives 30 GB for a monthly fee of 1,200 rubles. Accounting, as before, is carried out from 7:00 to 00:00. In the remaining time, the amount of information is not limited. If the volume is exceeded, each additional gigabyte will cost the same 150 rubles, which are automatically debited from the subscriber’s account.

Price

You can also buy an MTS 3G modem. And even in new condition. Its price will be only 1,500 rubles. But again, it is no longer possible to purchase it in a company store, but only from third-party companies or individuals. In a used form, its cost will decrease even more and will amount to 500-900 rubles, depending on the condition and degree of wear.

Relevance of devices

Although you can still find an unlimited 3G modem from MTS different users, but now it has been pushed out of the shelves by new devices that are aimed at functioning as part of 4G networks and support LTE technology. In this case, the maximum speed can increase to 100-150 Mbit/sec. At the same time, the price is practically the same. Also, such new mobile routers are backward compatible with 3G and even 2G standards. That is, they are capable of completely replacing the previous generation models.

Therefore, those who use MTS 3G will continue to use them until they become outdated or fail. But when choosing a new access point, experts recommend paying attention to those solutions that can operate in 4G mode.

Today the popularity of application mobile networks Internet connections are growing throughout the world. They allow you to connect to the World Wide Web without using a Wi-Fi signal and at any time join an online game, watch a video in high quality or find the information you need. Mobile networks of all telecom operators support Internet connections and use information transfer speeds that are not inferior to wireless networks. Accordingly, devices that facilitate connecting to the Internet via networks have also received a new impetus. mobile operators. One of the most popular are the latest generation wireless 4G USB modems.

Model range of 4G USB modems from MTS

4G USB modems from MTS are currently among the highest-speed equipment offered by mobile network operator companies. Their most significant advantage is the speed of information transmission and a huge number of base stations located in almost every locality in Russia.

The Mobile Telesystems company is a leader in the number of LTE base stations designed for organizing 4G communications and operating on a new standard for wireless high-speed data transmission for mobile devices. In total, the company has about 30,000 stations, which is almost one and a half thousand more than its nearest competitor.

The range of 4G USB modems from MTS includes two products manufactured by Huawei Technologies.

Please note that the 4G USB modem “MTS Connect 4G LTE Wi-Fi” is different from the “MTS Connect 4G Wi-Fi router”. Despite the general similarity of technical parameters, the modem creates a network only if it is connected to a computer, and the router has a built-in battery and can work autonomously from other devices for six hours.

    View and record basic modem data

It is recommended to always set network selection to automatic. This will help avoid unnecessary steps to configure the modem. It is recommended to select a network according to one of the standards only if there is no 4G or 3G network.

Setting the maximum reception and transmission speed

There are several ways to configure the maximum speed of receiving and transmitting data over the Internet:

  1. Use a USB extension cable to extend the 4G modem to a higher point. This will enhance the reception of widespread waves, which, unlike surface waves, have greater noise immunity and propagation speed, which, accordingly, will lead to an increase in the speed of Internet signal transmission.

    Connect the 4G modem to your computer via a USB extension cable

  2. Use a homemade resonator antenna to place the modem. Due to the reflection of radio waves from the resonator, it turns out double effect strengthens the signal and achieves higher speed.

    Internet access speed can increase due to reflection from the surface of the resonator antenna

  3. Use a Kharchenko antenna (“eight”), which will be in contact with the 4G modem. The Kharchenko antenna works similarly to an indoor television antenna, creating a guiding circuit that amplifies the signal and the speed of its processing.

    The Kharchenko antenna works on a different principle - it creates a guiding circuit and amplifies the signal

  4. Connect the 4G modem to the USB router port. This will allow you to additionally use a router amplifier and a fiber optic network to relay the Internet signal. Since the speed of receiving and transmitting information from the router is quite high, the speed of the modem will accordingly increase.

    You can increase the speed of your Internet connection by using the resources of the router

  5. Remove torrent programs from startup that, when loaded along with Windows, take up a certain amount of space RAM, which immediately affects the speed of the modem.
  6. Do not run a web browser and a torrent program at the same time to download information. The reason here is the same as in the previous paragraph.
  7. In your web browser settings, disable unnecessary add-ons such as Jawa Script and the like. Add-ons also take up some of the RAM and interfere with the modem's speed increase.

What problems and errors may arise when operating a 4G USB modem?

The main problem that may arise during the operation of a 4G USB modem from MTS is the lack of access to the Internet. To eliminate it, you can use the following methods:

  1. Check the 4G network coverage area on the map. To do this, on the official MTS website, go to the tabs “Private customers” - “Help” - “Service areas” - “Our map” and determine by region where the 4G network base stations operate.

    Restart your computer and launch the Connect Manager application

  2. Uninstall the Connect Manager application by opening the Control Panel on the desktop and going to the Programs and Features section. Install it again as described above.
  3. Call the support service at 8 (800) 250–08–90 or 0890 and report the problem. Get advice from technical specialists or fix the problem remotely.

In addition, other problems may arise:


Video: troubleshooting 4G modem connection problems

In my personal work with a 4G USB modem, various problems arose that I had to overcome. Most often, there was a complete lack of Internet signal while in a building if it was located in a low-lying area. In this case, natural obstacles were added to the signal shielding due to concrete walls. The most effective way out of this situation turned out to be connecting a 4G modem via a USB extension cable and moving the device to a higher point. We also tried to create a contact between the modem and the television antenna using copper wire, but this method did not give the same result as using an extension cord. The greatest effect was achieved for the TV antenna, which was made independently, using a metal gasket from the engine. If the antenna is factory-made and does not have a wide reflective surface, then the efficiency of receiving an Internet signal increases by no more than 15–20%. The Kharchenko antenna or its analogues amplifies the Internet signal well and increases performance. If you mount an antenna of this type on a wooden pole 3–4 meters long and place it on the roof of a house or on a balcony, the level of radio signal power and the speed of the 4G modem will increase by 40–50%.

These methods have proven themselves most effective when working with low-power tablets, when the base station is not in line of sight and the power of the tablet’s built-in antenna is not enough to reliably receive the signal. Using a resonator antenna practically does not give the desired result. The signal using such a device can be amplified only if the distance to the base station does not exceed one kilometer and there are no obstacles in the path of the signal.

Advantages and disadvantages of MTS 4G USB modems

4G USB modems are relatively new devices that operate on the next generation of technologies after 3G. Compared to their predecessors, these modems have improved technical specifications and have both advantages and disadvantages.

  1. Advantages:
    • high speed of information transfer over Internet networks;
    • simple and quick software setup;
    • connection stability;
    • automatic switching between network standards when leaving the coverage area of ​​any of them;
    • presence of a slot for a microSD card;
    • availability of connectors for external antennas.
  2. Flaws:
    • bulky dimensions, which sometimes leads to overlap of adjacent connectors;
    • the coverage area of ​​LTE base stations is not always sufficient;
    • high cost of the device and subscription fee;
    • high energy consumption;
    • weak cooling system - when working in 4G networks, the temperature of the modem can reach 70 degrees.

Based on the advantages of 4G modems over their predecessors, we can say with confidence that over time they will completely displace their predecessors from the consumer market.

MTS tariffs for the modem are presented in a small number of options. Today the company offers only two solutions. It's worth reviewing the key parameters to help clients decide on a program.

There are currently two options available:

  • Connect-4.
  • Plan For laptop.

Programs from the operator are in definite demand. They have a number of advantages:

  • There is unlimited Internet, but there is a speed limit.
