Internet to a private home Rostelecom: how much does it cost

The Rostelecom company offers its clients the following services for connecting a network to a private home:

fiber optic communications;
satellite Internet to a private home from Rostelecom;
using your home phone network;
via a fixed wireless connection point (Wi-Fi).

However, Rostelecom no longer provides satellite Internet services. This service is provided by their subsidiary, RTKOMM.RU, which, in turn, created its own satellite communications operator SENSAT.

This connection method should be chosen only if the private home is remote from other types of communication. Since installing satellite Internet will cost the user from 30,000 to 50,000 thousand rubles.

Moreover, the speed provided by the operator is limited and cannot be compared with analogues. Therefore, it is worth considering other options for how to connect the Internet at home.

Optical fiber (PON)

Conducting the Internet through a fiber optic cable to a private home is one of the most acceptable types of connection. This method provides the client with the highest speed of receiving and transmitting information, which reaches up to 1 Gbit per second.

Installation specialists do not connect the fiber optic cable directly to the user’s computer or Wi-Fi modem. Therefore, to receive the signal you will need a special decoder. In apartment buildings, such a set-top box is installed by the operator itself, but when connecting in the private sector, the decoder must be purchased independently. And only from this set-top box will there be standard Ethernet cables that are directly connected to a computer or Wi-Fi modem router.

The cost of installing a fiber optic cable is the highest of all possible methods of connecting the Internet to a private home. The cost will depend on several factors:

level of required installation work;
connection equipment;
distance for the nearest connection station.

You can find out the current price of fiber-optic Internet to a private home exclusively from specialists from the company. Despite the high cost of connection, the quality of fiber optic communication is the most impeccable.

Wired connections

xPON (fiber optics) is the best option in terms of speed/cost, but this technology is practically not used by providers for providing Internet in private homes. This type of connection makes it possible to immediately connect television and the Internet through one cable.

ADSL – here the telephone cable acts as a traffic conductor. In this case, the phone itself can be used in parallel to make calls. The company provides a speed of about 8 Mbit/s. In addition, it is possible to transfer data via Wi-Fi technology. Additionally, you will have to buy a splitter and a router.

Telephone line (ADSL)

Connecting to the network via a telephone line is carried out by Rostelecom specialists according to the same principle as in the absence of fiber optic cable. Although ADSL technology has lost its relevance and relevance when connecting to the Internet in an apartment, a telephone line can be an excellent budget option for connecting a private home.

Naturally, to connect to the Internet via a telephone line, the user must be a landline telephone subscriber from Rostelecom.

Connection principle and cost:

The Internet signal is carried through the same cable as the telephone connection.
In order for a subscriber to simultaneously use network access and a telephone, it will be necessary to purchase a special frequency limiter. The cost of this device varies from 200 to 300 rubles.
You will also need an ADSL router to connect. This device receives and decodes the main signal, and also uses it as a Wi-Fi router. The price of a router depends on its quality. The cost of optimal options is 2000-3000 rubles.

The price of a full connection will cost a Rostelecom subscriber an amount approximately equal to 4,000 rubles. Which is much cheaper than installing cable internet in a private home.

Connection via a telephone line provides its users with speeds of up to 24 Mbit per second. However, in reality it may turn out to be several times less than stated. Since the speed will depend on the quality of the telephone line.

The main disadvantage of this method of Internet access is possible problems with communication and network connections. The telephone line practically does not work in bad weather conditions.

Tariffs for digital TV

Rostelecom in the Lipetsk region offers subscribers two versions of digital television. The first is called “Interactive TV” and provides for connection via Rostelecom channels with a guarantee of image quality. The second version is called “Interactive TV 2.0” and does not oblige you to use the Internet channel from Rostelecom, working with channels of any providers (including via Wi-Fi).

Tariff plans for:

“YOUR STARTER” with a subscription fee of 320 rubles/month – 127 TV channels included.
“YOUR Optimal” with a subscription fee of 420 rubles/month – 159 TV channels included.
“YOUR Advanced” with a subscription fee of 620 rubles/month – 192 TV channels included.
“YOUR Maximum” with a subscription fee of 1,700 rubles/month – 234 TV channels included.
“YOUR Premiere” with a subscription fee of 620 rubles/month – channels with film premieres and blockbusters are included.

Tariffs for:

“YOUR Starter 2.0” – more than a hundred channels are included for 320 rubles/month.
“YOUR Optimal 2.0” - an expanded set of TV channels for 420 rubles/month, there are more than 120 of them.
“YOUR Advanced 2.0” is a tariff plan with more than 140 TV channels, the subscription fee is 620 rubles/month.
“YOUR Maximum 2.0” is the most voluminous package of more than 190 TV channels for 1,700 rubles/month.
“Easy 2.0” – only the most necessary channels, there are 35 of them in total. There is no subscription fee, but there is a one-time payment of 1000 rubles.

Viewing control and additional thematic channel packages are available on all tariffs.

Mobile Internet

If the subscriber uses exclusively portable devices (mobile phones, tablets and other gadgets), then it is more advisable not to connect the Internet through expensive fiber-optic networks or telephone communications.

An excellent option may be to use a mobile connection - without a home phone. Sim cards will cost users much less than other methods of connecting to the World Wide Web.

Tariff plans from Rostelecom offer their customers Internet traffic from 70 megabytes to 25 gigabytes per month. The price category of tariffs will differ depending on the amount of Internet data provided.

However, before choosing traffic, you should pay more attention to the components of the tariff plan. Some tariffs from Rostelecom still use exclusively 3G communications, ignoring the more advanced LTE 4G.

Rostelecom Ivanovo

I would never recommend connecting to Rostelecom's Internet.
Ivanovo is full of other providers working normally, according to the usual pattern. A countless number of tricks of fraud have been invented here that no one has ever encountered. I don’t have enough dexterity to describe all the paper, so I’m leaving out the slimy part (don’t be surprised that it comes out a little strangely unrelated). The first rule of ALL PROVIDERS: if you didn’t pay, you were immediately disconnected. It doesn’t work here, they will add tidy sums to their pockets, without wondering what happened there, maybe you are already using a completely different Internet. No! You need to tear off the completely unnecessary router they imposed on you (unnecessary not only because you don’t use it, but because it was imposed on you when you connected voluntarily or compulsorily for additional income, although you already have your favorite, good one. other, less economical providers do not reject it). Then you take this router to their terrible office and after much suffering (whoever has been there understands what I mean) you finally get rid of it. But that is not all. After all, due to inexperience, you have been using the services of another provider for several months, and you pay him accordingly. This is where you came!!! No amount of paper with Beeline or MTS contracts will save you. That's how I got there. I didn’t want to bother and paid exactly as much as they calculated for me and forgot (nerves cost more). And I left them for a very, in my opinion, good reason. Before I had time to take advantage of the joys of their Internet, it was gone. A disruption can happen to anyone – technology. But when the outage drags on, everyone calls to find out what it is. And there they politely answer and apologize. The smartest ones use a talker (bot) to answer and apologize and don’t worry. I'm not local, I have the best provider, Speedyline. When they had a terrible accident, they not only apologized and provided time for repairs, but also did not defend payment for this time... Rostelecom did an extraordinary thing in their characteristic manner... They turned off their phones so that they would not be pestered with their questions. This did not suit me, and I quickly connected MTS. Let's get back to the sad stuff. About a couple of months after I paid the required amount and was satisfied with the operator’s assurances that I was free and didn’t owe them anything else, Rostelecom decided not to rest on this. After all, his revenge must be terrible. I received a message on my phone, apparently as a Happy New Year greeting, but not from Grandfather Frost, that the amount of 100 rubles was collected from my bank card by court. for Rostelecom. There is still a balance of debt, also 100 rubles. Here, too, questions arise. “Where did the firewood come from?”, because I immediately and resignedly gave them as much money as they wanted. The trial is now being organized without the presence of the defendant, otherwise God forbid they will have to return the money. And the funniest thing in my opinion is that they decided to spread such a ridiculous amount over two terms, apparently so that she would remember longer and enjoy the most important holiday of the year less. And then, you see, they’ll prepare something even more interesting, “So that everyone will tremble, so that they will respect!”, and not brush away their machinations like flies, like I, your humble servant.

WiFi

In addition to paid options, Rostelecom also provides its subscribers with free Internet use through the distribution of a public Wi-Fi signal. According to the government program “Eliminating the Digital Divide,” adopted in 2003, Wi-Fi routers should be installed in settlements whose population varies from 250 to 500 people, to which anyone can connect.

The connection speed of such a network is 10 Mbit per second, however, due to the large connection to one Wi-Fi source, the signal can be significantly reduced. At the moment, many settlements have already been connected.

Landline telephone - tariffs

Let's move on to home phone tariffs. Landline telephony services will be in demand among Tula residents for a very, very long time. Moreover, Rostelecom has prepared a lot of tariff plans for existing and potential subscribers - limited and unlimited.

For a long time, there was only one tariff on the market, providing local unlimited tariffs in Tula. It was impossible to put up with this in conditions of fierce competition with mobile operators, so Rostelecom significantly expanded the number of tariff plans. For example, limited offers appeared:

“Time-based” – there are no included minutes, per-minute billing is 50 kopecks/min. Subscription fee – 180 rubles/month (in fact, this is a fee for using the communication line).
“Social” – includes a minimum set of 100 minutes for 213 rubles/month. The cost of services above the package is 54 kopecks/min.
“Combined” – 350 minutes in Tula for medium-active subscribers. The subscription fee is 320 rubles/month, the fee above the package is 44 kopecks/min.

Please note that minutes are not carried over to the next month - they expire.

Now let's look at tariff plans with local unlimited limits:

“Unlimited” is a descendant of old times, classic unlimited for calls within Tula. The subscription fee is 442 rubles/month.
“Subscriber” is a similar offer valid on older PBXs. The subscription fee is 320 rubles/month.
“Unlimited Russia” is a new tariff from Rostelecom that allows you to make unlimited calls not only in Tula, but throughout Russia. The subscription fee is 490 rubles/month.
“Weekend” is another modern tariff plan created for chatting on weekends and holidays. Subscription fee – 320 rubles/month. Tariffing on weekdays is 50 kopecks/min.

Long-distance calls on all tariff plans are paid separately.

How much does it cost to connect a private house?

The cost of connecting to the Internet in a private home depends on the Internet access option.

The options are as follows:

The most expensive installation of equipment is for fiber optic cable and satellite Internet. Connections of this type require a lot of installation work not only at the subscriber site, but also at communication workstations. Therefore, the user will have to pay from 20,000 to 70,000 rubles for installing cable or satellite Internet.
Conducting a network through a telephone line costs about 5,000 rubles. However, this figure is only possible if there is a connected landline telephony connection.
Mobile communications will cost the least for the client. In this case, the cost is equal to the subscription fee for the first month of using the tariff plan.
Using a public Wi-Fi network is absolutely free. You just need to register on the Rostelecom website using your mobile phone number.

It is also worth understanding that, in addition to the connection cost that the user pays for installing the Internet, there is also a monthly subscription fee, which depends on the tariff chosen by the client.

Tariffs for video surveillance

Rostelecom’s unified video surveillance system will provide complete control over subscribers’ homes, including at night. For this purpose, cameras that connect to the Internet are purchased. Data is stored on the operator’s servers and is stored for seven days. You can download up to 5 recordings from storage per month, each up to 30 minutes long. Tariffing:

Free for a year when purchasing a camera before December 31, 2017. The cost of the camera is 4990 rubles.
300 rubles/month for two years when connecting to the “Video surveillance + camera” package until December 31, 2021 (for those who use).

It is unknown what the service conditions will be from 2021.

How to submit a connection request

You can submit your application in the following ways:

You can leave a request on the official website of Rostelecom. To do this, in the “Internet” tab, you need to open the “Connect” option. The site will require you to select a locality and offer possible types of communication in this area.

How does the procedure for connecting the Internet from Rostelecom to a private home take place?

After reviewing the application, the operator will call the client back to confirm the service provided and the date of its implementation. The procedure itself depends on the method of Internet connection chosen by the user.

The fiber optic method requires large-scale work; for the Internet via telephone communication, special set-top boxes are required. The connection specialist will also enter into a service agreement with the company. From this moment on, the user will be a client of Rostelecom.

When choosing the most convenient way to connect to the Internet in a private area, you should proceed from financial capabilities, the required speed and the location of the private home.
