Vodafone 3G: Internet tariffs in various packages

You can read here how beneficial it will be to use mobile Internet from Vodafone compared to offers from other operators.

In general, Vodafone offers mobile Internet at prices included in the following tariff plans:

Vodafone Ukraine: 3G tariffs

Please note that in Vodafone Red packages, unlimited use of social networks and instant messengers means sending only text messages when using mobile versions or official applications. Clicking on any link from them will be charged as the rest of the Internet within the package (or beyond it).

You can find out the rest of the package Internet, as well as other package services, using a USSD request:

For prepaid subscribers: *101*4#☎ or *101*04#☎

For contract employees: *110*20#☎

As you know, Vodafone has not yet provided 3G coverage everywhere, and therefore in those places where only 2G is available, users automatically switch to it.

Once again, we advise you to go to the official Vodafone website - the 3g coverage map is given there with all the details.

APN access point of Kyivstar, Vodafone, lifecell operators

APN access points of 3G/4G operators in Ukraine. To set up Mobile Internet on your device, you must enter an access point (APN).

The operators Vodafone UA, Lifecell, and Kyivstar have a very simple access point: Internet

Kyivstar previously had a little more difficulty:

  • www.ab.kyivstar.net — prepaid subscriber
  • www.kyivstar.net — subscriber contract
  • Contract: internet
  • Prepayment: internet

What is APN?

Access Point Name (or APN for short) is the name of the settings that allow your device (phone/modem/router) to establish a connection to the gateway between your operator's network and the public network.

Your operator reads these settings to allocate an IP address.

Depending on the network design of a particular operator, different settings may be required. In most cases, you only need to change a few settings, but you should still save the existing settings from your carrier. The majority of users will never need to manually change the APN, since each phone comes pre-loaded with several standard APN settings, so in most cases the device will be able to configure itself to make calls automatically. This is very convenient if you suddenly need help from your operator’s technical support, if some network settings in your device are not working correctly and you have to set the APN manually.

Dialing number for all operators: *99#

Manual settings

Manually setting up a smartphone supporting 2-4G technologies should not scare you, just 2 points.

  1. It all starts with choosing the appropriate network mode depending on the operating system, phone model or manufacturer:
Network mode
For iOSLTE/3G
For Windows Phone4G/2G/3G
For Android4G/3G/2G
For BlackBerry4G/3G/2G
  1. The next step is to request a package of settings for Internet access from your operator. Almost all new MTS subscribers have encountered this procedure. You need to send a free SMS with the number “0” to service number 1020. In a couple of minutes you will receive a message with the settings; you should save them. Installation occurs automatically.

For those who like to do everything themselves, we offer an alternative in 2 steps. You should create another profile on your phone; of all the columns, you should only be interested in the APN access point. Set it to internet, other fields should remain unchanged.

When network registration is complete, one of the following icons will appear in the upper left corner of the screen:

The appearance of a particular icon depends on the OS on which the device operates and the firmware version.

Additional Information

Unfortunately, some regions of the country can only dream of good Internet on mobile phones, since even 2G coverage is patchy, let alone 3G and 4G technologies.

We invite you to familiarize yourself with the coverage of all types of mobile Internet from Vodafone Ukraine:

If you are one of the lucky ones living in areas with 4G coverage, quickly complete the settings on your smartphone and enjoy the speed and signal. Subscribers with a 3G connection are a little less fortunate, but the coverage area exceeds that available in 4G. We sympathize with users with 2G, but we are sure that civilization will soon reach you.

However, this method can be used by owners of quite modern digital mobile devices if the methods listed above for some reason did not allow them to achieve the desired result.

We are talking about such a time-tested method as contacting a technical support specialist. Vodafone pays close attention to each subscriber. The qualifications of operators allow you to connect mobile Internet manually, even if the subscriber is a complete amateur in the field of digital services.

In order to take advantage of this opportunity, it is enough to call the number “111”.

Here you need to know a few USSD requests:

  • To block mobile Internet, online television, sending MMS and other functions, you need to send the command *109*81#. The action is canceled by request *109*82#;
  • Disabling the Internet while roaming is carried out using the combination *109*102#, and you can cancel it by requesting *109*103#.

Each request will be processed within 24 hours. The Vodafone subscriber is notified via SMS that the action has been completed.
