So, manually setting up an MTS Internet access point, its password, login and name is very simple. All information for popular operating systems is available on the official website.

Setting up an MTS access point on your phone

Usually, all Internet settings fall into place automatically when you turn on the SIM card for the first time. If the device is an outdated model, then it receives an SMS with the necessary parameters, which either download themselves or need to be installed manually. Modern smartphones do not require this, but sometimes crashes occur and the settings disappear or do not appear initially. So, for example, when changing a SIM card, the phone may remain configured with the same operator. If this happens, it will not connect to the Internet.

Android smartphones

To set the parameters on Android yourself, you need to go to “Mobile networks”, then “SIM card settings”, “Access points (APN)”. Enter the following settings here:

Name - MTS internet.
APN - internet.mts.ru.
Login - mts.
mts password.

In different phone models, the path to this section will be slightly different, as well as the names of the items themselves: instead of the name there will be “Profile”, login - “Username”.

No other settings need to be filled in; they remain unspecified. If after entering the data the Internet does not work, you should restart the phone.

iPhone

Instructions for Apple users:

Go to “Settings” in the phone menu.
Then follow this path: “Cellular communications” - “Data settings” - “Cellular data network”.
In the “Cellular Data” section, fill in all lines as follows:

APN: internet.mts.ru.
Username: mts.
Password: mts.

Save the changes. We check the mobile's access to the Internet - the corresponding button must be turned on. Reboot.

Windows Phone8

Let's go to settings.
Next “Data transfer” - “Add Internet access point”.
Here 3 points are filled in: APN internet.mts.ru, name - mts, password - mts.

For the changes to take effect, you need to reboot.

Setting methods

In fact, setting up the Internet on Android devices is quite easy. Moreover, it does not require special skills and knowledge. First of all, it is worth noting that there are two options for how to set up mobile Internet on MTS on Android:

Automatically.
Manually.

Both options are very simple. Of course, automatic settings are simpler than manual ones, but in any case you will have to call your mobile operator and find out how access to the Internet and MMS is configured.

Automatic access setup

As a rule, modern smartphones initially accept automatic network settings. That is, when you connect a SIM card for the first time (in our case from MTS), you receive a notification that the phone is automatically configured.

In some cases, you need to call the support service of your mobile operator, name your phone model and ask them to send you automatic settings. The support worker will tell you what to do.

Automatic MTS Internet settings on Android will not take much time. Within a few minutes the settings will be sent to your phone via SMS. When you open this SMS, a message will appear indicating that the network parameters will be changed. You need to agree to the terms and confirm the installation of new parameters. After this, it is advisable to reboot the device.

Setting up the Internet manually

Manually setting up MTS Internet on Android is a little more complicated. But before you find out the phone parameters, you should find out what data you need to enter.

Typically, setting up access requires several basic elements:

MTS Russia:
Name - MTS Internet
APN - internet.mts.ru
Login - mts
Password: mts
Everything else is unchanged.

Since the tariff is paid by phone number, the login and password are the same for all subscribers.

Now let's look at where to enter these parameters. To do this you need to follow a few simple steps:

Go to the application menu, find the “Settings” shortcut and launch it.
Go to the “Other networks” section.
Select "Mobile networks".
Go to the “Access Points” section.
Here, as a rule, there are already automatic access points. If you need to add a new one, click on the plus sign in the upper right corner.
Enter the above data and leave the remaining points unchanged. After entering the required information, save the changes and restart the device. As you can see, the question of how to set up an MTS access point on Android does not require any special knowledge or skills.

MTS Belarus Internet settings: automatic and manual

Automatic Internet settings MTS Belarus

The easiest way to access the mobile Internet is to get automatic settings. For this you will need:

call 0870221;
follow instructions.

As a result, the subscriber will receive the necessary parameters for cellular communication and will be able to use the Internet. If this does not happen, you will have to proceed to manual configuration and enter standard network parameters into the phone yourself. Users will have to fill out several fields, indicating the data provided by the provider (presented on the company’s official portal).

Changing the password on the MTS Wi-Fi router

Changing this setting will help avoid many unpleasant surprises. The company's specialists strongly recommend using a complex access key for the following purposes:

limit the use of traffic by third-party devices;
improve the quality of your home network;
reduce the load on the signal source;
keep personal data secret.

The absence of a password opens access to attackers who can:

steal personal information;
use the user’s computer to automatically send information prohibited by applicable law;
use payment card data for personal purposes.

The password can be changed in the modem settings. To log in, you must use the device’s IP address, which is indicated in the address bar of any browser:

For a D-Link router you need to use 192.168.0.1.
For TP-Link, Zyxel, Asus modems, enter the address 192.168.1.1.

Once on the login page, you must enter the correct username and password. The main page of the modem web menu should open. Find the Wireless Settings section and go to it. Find the WPA2 Shared Key item and change the key.

Similar actions are necessary in the following cases:

when suspicious connections appear;
to prevent uncontrolled use of traffic by children;
if the owner of the device changes.

Setting a complex password will protect the router owner from unpleasant surprises, including loss of payment card information.

Automatic Internet settings MTS

To gain the right to connect to the mobile Internet, you will have to request automatic network settings. They will arrive on the specified SIM card moments later, after which the user will receive (or restore) the ability to load sites and use mobile applications. And in the most difficult situations, when it is not possible to cope with the existing task on your own, you can contact the contact center and use the services of consultants who will perform the necessary actions for the client who contacts them.

Ordering automatic settings

The most convenient way to order Internet settings on MTS is through the company’s website. For this you will need:

Visit the page mts.ru/personal/podderzhka/mobilniy-internet/nastroyki-telefona-modema/avtomaticheskie-nastroyki-telefona.
Indicate in the special field the phone number where you want to send the operating parameters.
Pass the robot test by specifying the required pictures.
Click the “send” button.
Wait a little for the response message to arrive and use the instructions received.

Nothing additional is needed.

What should I do if the settings do not arrive/are not saved?

Sometimes automatic settings do not arrive or are not saved. Such difficulties are rare, but it is impossible to completely exclude their occurrence. The only way out in such a situation is to introduce manual settings. How to set the necessary parameters on Android (and devices with other operating systems) will be discussed later.

An alternative solution would be to go to the nearest MTS branded communication store and get help from an employee working there. But this approach is inconvenient and time-consuming.

Modern tariff plans include a special. It allows you to use the mobile Internet with incorrectly set connection parameters. The only condition that must be met for connection is the presence of an active one. Without it, it is impossible to visit websites and use online services.

If the subscriber does not have the listed options, it is worth connecting them:

in your personal account;
through the “My MTS” mobile application;
using requests *111*18# and *111*2156#.

iOS fans

Now pay attention: which generation of network does your mobile phone connect to? 2G/3G/4G? If you are still not enjoying the privileges of 4G waves, the following instructions are for you.

However, if instructions do not arrive on your device or the phone refuses to accept them, you will have to resort to manual control.

Step 4. Select LTE from the proposed options.

Switching from third-generation to fourth-generation waves is very easy, and after the transition you will experience significantly increased Internet connection speeds.

I didn’t send an SMS with the letter A in time to connect. I followed the above recommendations, rebooted the phone, but there was no connection.

Irina, apparently, you are not connected. Write to us in support using the “Send request” button - we will check.

We installed a microchip with an Internet mini plan on a Lenovo Yogo Tablet8 tablet (there are no call or ussd functions). After 15 years, a message came that the balance was 300 rubles. How to check the balance without ussd (we tried the buy balance, it doesn’t work - you also need to enter ussd there)?

Olga, install our mobile application “My MTS” - you can register without USSD https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=by.mts.client

I recently formatted my phone and the mobile internet stopped working. I did everything according to the instructions, but the Internet still does not connect. I noticed that in addition to the examples given for filling out lines, there are some about which nothing is said about what to fill in like: Server, MMSC, MMS procs, MMS port and channel. Tell me, do I need to fill them out? If so, what exactly, if not, then what to do?

Andrey, these fields are intended for setting up MMS. If the Internet does not work, use the article https://help.mts.by/hc/ru/articles/201850151

Shouldn’t it be necessary to enter the server name in the settings, after entering the login and password? In this case mts.by And another question - I changed my phone. After I inserted the SIM card into the new one, I received the message “Settings will now be sent to you. on the Internet”, which have been running for ten days. Do I need them? Or is this not necessary after entering the real settings? Thank you.

The BIT service is connected, everything is installed correctly, but the Internet is working very slowly. Tell me what to do please

Yuri, we apologize for the late response. To quickly receive information, we recommend using the “Send request” button. You do not need to enter a server name. If you entered the settings manually, then receiving automatic settings is also not required.

Roma, you probably do not have 3G coverage or your high-speed traffic quota has been reached. If speed problems are observed in a certain location, we recommend sending a request for verification using the “Submit Request” button.

Write somewhere a password (PIN) to automatically apply settings from configuration messages for Android. There is NO accompanying SMS with the code, PIN 1234 does not go through, the operators are not aware. The phone supports 100%, Velcom PIN 1111 - checked everything is OK. Of course, you can enter the APN data manually - no problem, but why do you need the “SETUP-KA” service at all?!

Andrew, please write to us by sending a request with your subscriber number and phone model, we will pass it on to specialists to check the settings for your device. There is currently no information on the PIN code for settings from the developers - we are clarifying this information, but we need a specific example to check. Thank you!

Using an MTS modem and setting it up

For many people, the phone is still not the most convenient way to surf the Internet, so they want to use the mobile Internet on a personal computer, laptop or tablet (without using a SIM card). This may be due to modems and routers, into which a chip is also inserted that requires certain settings.

Most modern gadgets have the function of distributing the Internet. This means that the device, through certain settings, begins to work as a simple modem or router and distribute the Internet to any home client devices.

Important! Unfortunately, this function is often blocked by operators or provided for a fee, even on those tariff plans that are connected to unlimited Internet. Companies simply don't want people using their services who haven't paid for them.

The mobile device can also be used as a network modem by simply connecting it to a personal computer. To set up such a connection, you will need to log into the control panel and run the Quick Connection Setup Wizard. More details about this procedure can be found on the official website. Connecting a phone to a PC is no longer in demand due to the active development of wireless and compact modems and new functions that allow phones and tablets to be used as wireless access points.

Ordering automatic settings for a modem is as easy as ordering for a telephone. To do this, you do not need to contact the operator or come personally to the support center. This is done only in extreme cases. You can also log into your personal account and find out all the data that you need to enter in the Connect Manager.

Thus, it was described here how to configure the Internet on MTS manually or using automatic configurations. You can request them using the service USSD code or any other way (SMS message, personal account). The company also offers the “Access without settings” option, which allows you to log into the network without specifying access parameters. It is available only for tariffs that require access to the network using GSM, 3G or LTE. The most popular among them are: “Tariffische”, “Unlimited”, “Smart”.

How to get automatic settings?

You can request automatic settings in the following ways:

send an SMS message;
call a short number;

If you need more precise settings, you can send not an empty message, but specify the parameters below:

Internet—the GPRS Internet service will be configured;
MMS—you will receive settings for MMS messages;
WAP - activation of Wireless Application Protocol (older version of access);
CSD - protocol settings for older devices that do not support the GPRS standard.

Call 0876

What models of WiFi routers does MTS provide?

DIR-615

Our traditional router has proven itself over many years to be a reliable and trouble-free device. This is the router that was previously installed by most MTS subscribers.

Dual-band router Sercomm S1010.MTS

The newest model among MTS routers.

A dual-band router is a router that broadcasts two Wi-Fi networks (that’s why it is also called Dual-Band). This router, like regular routers, distributes the Internet at a frequency of 2.4 GHz. This frequency is now the most common; almost all Wi-Fi routers operate on it. At the same time, it broadcasts a Wi-Fi network at a frequency of 5 GHz. This is what distinguishes a dual-band router from a single-band (regular) router.

How to choose a 4G router

When choosing a device, it is important to consider the following characteristics.

Wi-Fi standards

Modern routers use 802.11b, 802.11a, 802.11g, 802.11n, 802.11ac standards, this will determine the maximum Internet speed on the end device connected to Wi-Fi, the range of operating frequencies (higher frequencies have less interference) and range .

802.11b (legacy) speed 11 Mbps range 2.4 GHz radius up to 50 m.

802.11a (legacy) speed 54 Mbps 5 GHz range up to 30 m radius.

802.11g (new) speed 54 Mbit/s range 2.4 GHz radius up to 50 m.

802.11n new speed up to 480 Mbit/s range 2.4 and 5 GHz radius up to 100 m.

802.11ac (advanced) speed up to 1.3 Gbps 5 GHz range over 100 m radius.

Maximum number of clients

If it is important for you that many devices can be connected to the router at the same time, for example, if you want to use it as a backup access point in the office, then pay attention to this indicator.

Battery capacity and battery life

Do you plan to use your device a lot outside the home and want to stay connected even while fishing? This means that the capacity of the battery is important, that is, how long it works without recharging. Pay attention to models that work as a power bank - for example, from MTS.

Why do you need a 5GHz Wi-Fi network?

Due to the fact that most routers operate at the 2.4 GHz frequency, it is heavily loaded - many devices operating at the same frequency conflict with each other. You've probably paid attention to how many neighboring WiFi networks your apartment can connect to. The more of these networks, the greater the load on the frequency, the slower the Internet works. Using a 5GHz WiFi router allows you to almost completely avoid interference, and as a result, the WiFi connection will be more stable and the connection speed will be higher.

How to use the 5GHz network?

The Sercomm S1010.MTS router simultaneously broadcasts 2 networks – 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. The vast majority of devices sold in recent years (and many released earlier) support the 5GHz frequency, so it is better to choose this network when connecting the device for the first time. If you also want to connect an old device, it will not see the 5GHz network, so it will offer you to connect using the 2.4GHz frequency.
