Rostelecom Internet, television and mobile communications

Several years ago, the largest Russian provider Rostelecom launched its services on the mobile communications market. This happened as a result of the purchase of the largest provider providing its services in Russia. The main feature of the company is that it provides its services even to the most remote parts of the country. Thus, you can use home Internet or other services even in the smallest localities.

Today, Rostelecom clients have access to the following digital products:

  • Access to broadband Internet through several different technologies;
  • Mobile connection;
  • Interactive or digital television;
  • Wink online cinema;
  • Subscriptions for antivirus programs, parental controls, cloud storage and Office 365;
  • Video surveillance for your home or business;
  • Gadgets for implementing a smart home;
  • Column for managing your services using commands;
  • City phone;
  • Cable TV;
  • Cloud gaming;
  • Lyceum and audiobooks for your children;
  • Public Wi-Fi networks for clients in many cities;
  • And so on.

What is ADSL technology

Many users of the World Wide Web remember ADSL as a modem connection via a telephone. However, technology has changed significantly since then.

Let's look at the main advantages and disadvantages of ADSL:

Advantages and disadvantages

Cheap subscriber connection Saving user space Virtually no connection interruptions, unlike other types of connections

Limitation of Internet connection speed to 24 Mbit Strong dependence of the connection quality on the cable used by the subscriber The modem can only be used by a certain provider

Despite the fact that from a technical point of view, technology of this kind can be considered outdated, there are places in Russia where other connections other than the ADSL format are impossible. Moreover, unlike similar forms of connection, an asymmetric digital line will cost the owner much less, both in connection and in maintenance.

Tariffs for Internet, TV and mobile communications in Moscow

Now let’s look at Rostelecom’s tariff plans, which, in addition to a SIM card with mobile communications, include other company services. Such offers are considered much more profitable and attractive. Especially for residents of the capital. You can familiarize yourself with them in the visual table below.

Buy a smartphone from Rostelecom

PJSC Rostelecom has its own store where you can purchase many devices, including mobile phones. At the same time, many products have discounts and promotions. For example, in December 2020, you can buy any smartphone and receive headphones as a gift. Today Rostelecom cooperates with the following brands:

  • Apple;
  • Honor;
  • Huawei;
  • Samsung;
  • Xiaomi;
  • ZTE.

In addition to phones, the Rostelecom store sells accessories, home phones, smart home products, TVs and routers. You can go to the online store and view the list of products using the following link: https://shop.rt.ru/ .

What equipment is needed

The Internet is a complex technology. Especially when it comes to connecting to the network via ADSL. The following elements are involved:

  • Landline phone.
  • Splitter.
  • Modem.
  • Connecting cables.

Rostelecom will be able to rent everything except the telephone. Moreover, you will only need to pay for the modem. If desired, the equipment can be purchased. And if you already have a modem at home, you won’t have to buy or rent anything.

The company itself offers the following modems:

  • Rotek [email protected] 1704 RT.
  • D-Link DSL-2640U_AnnexB.
  • TP-LINK TD854W.
  • Upvel UR-344.
  • ZTE H108N.

The cost of each modem is 1890 rubles. This is a very affordable price, which is significantly lower in comparison with fiber optic devices.

You can find a modem cheaper in retail stores or on the Internet. Rostelecom does not have any requirements for the brand of the device.

Additional features

Now we propose to analyze all the additional features that are relevant for Rostelecom mobile communications. For convenience, we will divide them into categories.

Transfer minutes, GB and SMS to the next month

Since Rostelecom SIM cards operate on the basis of the Tele2 operator, both companies have implemented the preservation of all remaining packages for the next month. This means you don't have to rush to spend all the services to justify the subscription fee. Gigabytes will be transferred to the next billing period automatically from the 1st. To do this, you do not need to connect additional options and pay for them.

Unlimited options

If the selected tariff does not include unlimited traffic in some applications, you can activate it separately. The following prices apply:

  • Yandex.Maps, Yandex.Navigator, Yandex.Transport - 2.5 rubles per day;
  • Facebook, VKontakte, Odnoklassniki, Instagram - 2 rubles per day;
  • WhatsApp, Viber, Telegram, TamTam - 2 rubles per day.

Additional Internet packages

If you do not have enough traffic allocated for the month, you can purchase additional gigabytes. The following options are available:

  • 500 Megabytes - 50 rubles;
  • 3 Gigabytes - 200 rubles.

Exchange minutes to GB

Another opportunity to expand traffic if it is not enough is to exchange gigabytes for call minutes at the following rates:

  • 1 minute = approximately 10 Megabytes;
  • 10 minutes = approximately 100 Megabytes;
  • 100 minutes = 1 Gigabyte.

Of course, this amount of traffic may not be enough, for example, to watch videos or download applications. However, this is a great option if you need to quickly get online for simple purposes.
