Connecting a 4G Beeline Modem via USB to a Computer or Laptop and Setting up the Internet on Windows

The Beeline modem provides a wireless mobile connection. The device allows you to take it with you and access the network wherever there is cellular communication. The choice of devices is quite wide. All of them support technical parameters: 4G and 3G modems from Beeline. To choose, the user should study the characteristics of USB products, features of use and select the appropriate tariff.

Active offers for modems

From April 2021, a new Beeline tariff for USB modems - Internet Pro - is open for connection.

The “Internet PRO+” tariff from Beeline is one of the most profitable and suitable for a modem.

This package replaced the archived “Internet for Computers”, which provided unlimited access from 01:00 to 08:00. In the new Internet tariff, while maintaining the subscription fee, the limit has increased (instead of 30 GB it became 60 GB), and it became possible to connect 4 additional numbers.

This package is currently not available for connection.

At the end of October 2021, the operator announced the launch of the new Internet Pro+. Internet traffic is also not taken into account at night; additional useful options have appeared.

Internet Pro

The Internet Pro+ tariff, the only one available for connection and suitable for modems, includes:

• 100 GB of Internet traffic during the day;
• no restrictions from 01:00 to 08:00;
• subscription to films (first 2 months free) and 155 TV channels;
• the ability to share the package with loved ones (connect up to 4 additional numbers).

A Beeline card can be used for a smartphone, but the cost of calls and SMS does not compete with more profitable Beeline offers.

Internet Pro+ Terms:

• calls within the network, to local numbers of other operators - 2.5 rubles/min.;
• outgoing long-distance calls - 5 rubles/min.;
• messages within the home region - 2.5 rubles/SMS;
• SMS to numbers of any operators, intercity - 5 rubles;
• outgoing messages abroad - 8 rubles/SMS.

The cost of services within Internet Pro+ is 900 rubles. per month. The price is indicated for Moscow.

Using a small device from Beeline and a favorable tariff. you can connect to the global network from anywhere.

Archived offers

Beeline regularly updates its product lines and introduces new packages to the market.

Therefore, the archive has accumulated quite a few tariff plans.

Tariff “For computer”

As part of the package, 30 GB of Internet is available for a laptop or PC, which is charged when you access the network between 08:00 and 01:00. At night, the Internet is provided without a gigabyte limit.

You can use a SIM card for calls and SMS under the following conditions:

Subscription fee in Moscow - 900 rubles. per month. In the regions, mobile Internet for a modem is cheaper.

All in one

There are several tariffs within the “All in One” line.

Package structure:

Such conditions were offered in Moscow. In other regions, the comprehensive package is available at the “All for 300” tariff. The scope and range of services differ in different cities.

The All-in-One tariff is also good for a modem.

All “All in One” packages are archived and it is impossible to connect to them. Now the convergent tariff has been replaced by the “Close People” line.

Setting up a 4G network for Beeline on a modem

Additionally, you do not need to enter any settings, since all the data for authorization on the network is already built into the USB modem.

We can see them in the “Settings - Modem Information” section.

By the way, if you want to change your provider, you can later flash this modem for SIM cards from any operator.

If these values ​​are not available, you must specify them manually:

• Profile: beeline
• Call number: *99#
• APN: internet.beeline.ru
• Name: Beeline
• Password: beeline

However, in order to start working on the Internet, unlike the MTS 4G modem, one action will still need to be done - activate your account balance. When purchasing a tariff plan, you deposited a certain amount, which will be credited to your account and which can be spent on mobile Internet services.

If the pop-up window does not appear, then open the menu “Account Management - Activate Starting Balance”. And click on the “Activate” button

Next, go to the “Connection” section and click on “Connect” to activate the Internet on the USB modem. After this, the computer or laptop will be able to access the World Wide Web. You can control consumed mobile traffic on the “Statistics” page

Is it possible to connect to the archive tariff?

It is impossible to connect a package through the website or buy a SIM card with an archived tariff in a communication store. But when transferring any service to the archive, the conditions for already connected clients do not change. Exceptions may be made for packages that are not valid for an extended period.

Such subscribers, having been notified in advance, are automatically transferred to one of the existing tariffs.

Despite the fact that it is officially impossible to connect to a package from the archive, there are several ways out of the situation:

1. Purchase a SIM card with the desired tariff connected directly. If such a SIM card is lost or blocked, only the person to whom it is registered can regain access to it.
2. Inform the consultant of your intention to change operator. To retain the client, the manager can offer a special tariff with favorable conditions.

Beeline tariffs for Wi-Fi routers
