Tablet PC owners need wireless Internet access. Where there are no free points Wi-Fi access, they will have to use mobile networks. MTS is ready to offer its subscribers a range of tariff plans and options that you can use on your device. In principle, nothing prevents you from using laptop options on tablet PCs and vice versa.

It is also possible to use tariff plans aimed at Cell phones and smartphones. However, MTS has provided a specialized option for tablet PC owners - “MTS Tablet”. It includes not only a portion of traffic, but also access to mobile television. Thus, tablet owners will be able to use the services of the World Wide Web and watch various TV channels - an excellent opportunity for those who are rarely at home and prefer to receive information while on the go.

How much does the MTS Tablet option cost?

The cost of the MTS Tablet option is 400 rubles per month. At the same time, the size of the subscription fee may change - operators quite often play with numbers and with the content of their tariffs and options. For example, during the promotional period, when the MTS Tablet option was just starting to work, the subscription fee for its provision was only 5 rubles per day. Subsequently, the subscription fee was increased to 400 rubles per month.

By the way, for almost the same money you can subscribe to the MTS “Smart” tariff, and in addition to approximately the same amount of Internet traffic, it will also include free calls and SMS! You can read more about this in the article at the link. In order to receive up-to-date information about the cost of the option, check out the official website of the MTS operator, or contact the support service.

Terms of service

The MTS “Tablet” option can be used practically on any tariff plans. The list of exceptions includes package tariffs like “Ultra”, children’s tariff “Cool”, tariffs “Online” and “Super Online”, as well as some other tariff plans. When you try to connect an option, it simply will not connect, and the user will be notified about it via an appropriate SMS message. It is best to activate the “MTS Tablet” option on the “MTS Connect 4” tariff plan - this is the official recommendation of the operator.

The MTS Tablet option provides subscribers with 4 GB traffic, which can be used within a month. The billing period is the connection date. For example, if the option was enabled on March 14, it will be disabled at 3 a.m. on April 14. Traffic can be spent in any networks – 2G, 3G or 4G. In this case, the subscriber may be in any region of Russia. In distant regions, network access speed is limited to 128 kbit/sec - these are the Far East, Yakutia, Magadan and some other regions.

What happens if the allocated traffic quota is exceeded? Everything is simple here - Internet access will be suspended. To resume access, you must use the option to remove restrictions. Information about this option will appear on the tablet screen immediately after reaching the threshold. To watch mobile TV you need install the MTS TV application from the store that matches your tablet platform. Any additional settings are not needed here - everything will work itself. By the way, you can use Wi-Fi to watch TV channels, and not just 3G and 4G networks.

On mobile networks TV traffic is not charged– this is the main advantage of the service. In total, subscribers can choose from more than a hundred television channels. In addition, the MTS operator has a home cable Internet service using modern GPON technology, which includes the Internet, digital television, landline telephone and a free modem. And you can get all this at very affordable prices! You can find out more about this by following the link.

How to connect MTS-Tablet

The “MTS Tablet” option has been archived. Instead, there is a full-fledged tariff of the same name with slightly different terms of service.

How to disable the “MTS-Tablet” option

To disable the “MTS Tablet” option, almost the same set of commands and capabilities is provided. If the option is no longer needed, dial USSD command *111*835#, or send SMS with text 8350 to number 111. The most advanced subscribers can take advantage "Personal account".

Unlimited Internet via mobile networks many subscribers would like to receive. But for a number of reasons this is impossible - cellular operators deliberately “cut” the speed so as not to create a load on their networks. And this is quite understandable, since overloaded with Internet traffic base stations They will simply stop transmitting voice traffic, which will cause a storm of indignation among subscribers.

The same is true for the MTS operator - it also “cuts off” the speed when the traffic threshold is reached. Nevertheless, unlimited Internet from MTS still exists, only access to it is provided at a minimum speed. In this review we will look at options and tariffs for three groups of devices:

  • For phones;
  • For tablet PCs;
  • For computers.

By the way, there is no ironclad connection to any devices (with some exceptions) - tariffs and options intended for use in modems can also be used on tablet PCs. You can do the same with other groups of devices, tariffs and options.

Review of unlimited Internet from MTS

As part of this review, we will consider the following options and tariff plans:

  • For phones - “BIT” and “SuperBIT”, as well as tariff plans of the “Smart” line;
  • For tablets – “MTS Tablet”;
  • For computers – options “Internet-Mini”, “Internet-Maxi” and “Internet-VIP”.

All presented options and tariffs can be called unlimited, but only with certain conditions, which will be discussed below.

Unlimited Internet on your phone from MTS

For communication on social networks, instant messengers, and short-term surfing, the “BIT” and “SuperBIT” options are quite sufficient. The “BIT” option will provide us with 75 MB of traffic per day for 200 rubles per month. This traffic can only be used in the territory of Moscow and the Moscow region. This amount of traffic is more than enough for a phone.

More active subscribers are recommended to use other options. The “SuperBIT” tariff option is aimed at those who are not satisfied with the daily traffic limit. Here we can get 3 GB of traffic for only 350 rubles per month. And this traffic can be spent even in other regions. In addition to the option, we provide free access To cloud storage – there we can store our photos, videos and music tracks.

In both options, the included traffic is provided at maximum speed. If we exceed the allocated limits, then MTS will set a limit. For the “BIT” option, the restriction will be valid until the end of the day, for the “SuperBIT” option - until the end of the month.

If you are interested in unlimited Internet on your phone from MTS, and you do not need a lot of traffic, then the options presented will be optimal. If you need calls and SMS in addition to traffic, you should pay attention to the tariffs"Smart mini", "Smart", "Smart+" and "Smart Top":

  • “Smart mini” provides us with 1 GB of traffic;
  • “Smart” will offer slightly more – 5 GB;
  • "Smart Zabugorishche" includes 7 GB of Internet traffic in Week(here it is assumed weekly allocation of limits);
  • “Smart Unlimited” - 10 GB of traffic;
  • The expensive “Smart Top” tariff will provide us with 20 GB of traffic.

But there is no unlimited here - if the traffic exceeds, we will be offered the “Turbo button” option.

Pay attention to the newest tariff plan “Hype” - it’s 7 GB of total Internet traffic and unlimited for social networks, video services and online games.

Unlimited Internet for tablet from MTS

There is no real unlimited here, but there is an MTS Tablet tariff that provides 10 GB/month for 5,500 rubles along with free traffic for one of four directions - mobile TV, YouTube, social networks or video calls for Skype, WhatsApp and Viber.

Internet traffic within both options can be used in all regions of Russia.

Unlimited Internet for computer from MTS

Do you need unlimited Internet from your computer? It exists, but the conditions are very strict. To access the World Wide Web from a PC, you should consider the “Internet-Mini”, “Internet-Maxi” and “Internet-VIP” options:

  • "Internet-Mini" gives us 7 GB of traffic per month;
  • "Internet-Maxi" gives us 15 GB of traffic per month;
  • "Internet VIP" gives us a package of 30 GB of traffic during the day and unlimited night time. A “night” is considered to be the period from 01:00 to 07:00.

If you want to use full-fledged home Internet, then the operator provides such a service as connecting MTS home Internet via a high-tech and modern fiber optic cable, by the way, at very affordable prices. Read more about this on our website.

Let's go back to mobile internet for a computer from MTS. What happens if we exceed the traffic volume? First, we will be redirected to a page prompting us to use the “Turbo button” option. By the way, this same option is available on almost all of the options described above. If we give up additional option, then the speed will be limited to 16 kb/sec - this is negligible even for communication in instant messengers.

The specialized tariff option “MTS Tablet” is ready-made solution for tablet computers. The option includes an Internet package and the ability to watch MTS TV without taking into account traffic. The “MTS Tablet” option is available for connection on all MTS tariff plans, with the exception of the “SIM”, “Online”, “Super Online”, “Caring”, “Cool”, “Smart Top” and “ULTRA” tariffs. It is recommended to use the option on the tariff.

Description of the “MTS Tablet” option

The “MTS Tablet” option is notable for the fact that when watching television channels in the “MTS TV” application, traffic is not charged. That is, after activating the option, you will have the opportunity to unlimitedly watch more than 100 channels, and it does not matter in which region of the country you are located. The option also includes a small Internet traffic package. In most regions, 5 GB is available as part of the MTS Tablet option; for subscribers in Moscow and the Moscow region - 4 GB. It is worth noting that for active users there are more internet profitable offer, for example, a tariff or actively gaining popularity.

The MTS Tablet option includes:

  • Monthly fee - 400 rubles for Moscow and the Moscow region, 350 rubles for most regions of Russia;
  • 4 GB of Internet for subscribers in Moscow and the Moscow region, 5 GB for most regions of Russia;
  • Opportunity free viewing"MTS TV" through the "MTS TV" application (traffic quota is not taken into account);
  • The “MTS Tablet” option applies to all regions of Russia (When located in the Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Magadan, Yakutsk, Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk, Norilsk regions, as well as Chukotka Autonomous Okrug the maximum speed is limited to 128 Kbps within the monthly traffic quota).

This is all you will receive as part of the MTS Tablet option. If you consider, you can find more attractive offers with a similar cost.

Do not forget that “MTS Tablet” is a separate option, not a tariff. That is, it does not include packages of minutes and SMS. If you choose to send a message or make a call, you will be charged for these activities according to the terms of your service plan. If you use the recommended MTS Connect tariff plan, then the cost of one minute of conversation with subscribers of MTS and other networks will be 4 rubles per minute. If the called party is outside your home region, the call will cost even more. That is why, before connecting the option, it is necessary to choose the most profitable option.

How to activate the “MTS tablet” option

Undoubtedly, MTS Tablet is not the most profitable Internet option. However, few people connect it solely for the Internet. Many subscribers are attracted by the opportunity to watch television channels for free without taking into account the traffic quota.

If there are insufficient funds in the account at the time the monthly fee is charged, the option fee is debited daily until the balance is sufficient to charge the full monthly fee at once.

How to disable the “MTS Tablet” option

The “MTS Tablet” option appeared quite a long time ago, but the conditions have remained virtually unchanged. During this time, MTS has opened many other tariffs for switching and connecting, some of which may become a profitable alternative to the MTS Tablet option.

This is where we will end this review. We hope you have received a complete understanding of the MTS Tablet option. Don't forget to leave reviews.

Services market mobile communications gives its users more and more opportunities. The 4G standard has speeded up connections to the Internet and expanded the range of services provided by mobile operators. It has become common to watch videos from your mobile devices. An increasingly expanding network and competition in the market are gradually reducing the price.

To expand the capabilities of your tablet or smartphone, connect to the MTS Tablet tariff. However, this is not a tariff, but an option to your package, which for 400 rubles per month gives 4 GB of traffic and access to basic package"MTS TV".

Let's look at each feature of this offer for different gadgets.

If your tariff already provides access to the Internet, then an option such as “MTS Tablet” will not add additional traffic to the existing volume, but provides for reconnection, during which access to the “old” package is suspended, and only those specified in this offer will be available - 4 GB. This condition is valid if you enable this option on the following packages:

This tariff has priority if the following options are connected in addition to it:

  • "BIT Smart"
  • "SuperBIT ULTRA"
  • "All that is needed",
  • "BIT ULTRA"
  • "BIT MAXI"
  • "MiniBIT"
  • "Internet for a day."

Please note that you cannot connect any services to the “BIT Smart” or “SuperBIT Smart” tariff additional functions, if an option such as “MTS Tablet” was previously installed. It may be more convenient to switch to another package.

If you have used your limit in less than a month, 500 MB will be automatically added for 75 rubles, if the funds in your account allow. After using them - another 500 MB and so on up to 15 times. We advise you to pay attention to this and control the consumption of funds and traffic through Personal Area.

If you need to get an additional limit after using these packages, you can use the “Turbo button” - a paid one-time function that also gives access to the Internet.

Incompatibility is not always justified, and even at an additional cost, but it is the next feature of this option that makes it quite popular.

Watching TV channels

The idea is to give customers an inexpensive opportunity to use their device to watch their favorite TV channels, movies, and series anywhere there is 3 or 4G signal coverage and no access to a TV. A city traffic jam, a trip to nature or to the countryside will not deprive you of the opportunity to watch the desired program on time (for example, news or sports) or just some movie to pass the time.

True, there is a small nuance. By paying 400 rubles per month, you only get access to a small list of TV channels, movies and only from one device. The company calls this "limited functionality."

Characteristics and description of TV content are available on the website http://www.mts.ru/. Please review them before signing up to make sure you get access to the channels you need.

The peculiarity of MTS TV is that this function connects free of charge, by default when using MTS Tablet. At the same time, traffic is not consumed while watching TV programs and movies.

Use opportunities 100%

If you want to use the MTS TV service in full, then for an additional 300 rubles per month or 15 rubles per day, you will be able to view:

  • many films, educational and entertaining television programs;
  • cartoons,
  • TV series,
  • 130 television channels.

This is the content that is included in the full package of this service. You can view all this from 2 mobile devices simultaneously, and you can connect up to 5 devices to one account.

There is no network connection in the basic (free) and full (paid) MTS TV packages. That is, the only requirement for everything to work is the presence of a 3G signal, or even better, 4G or WiFi with a transmission speed of at least 150 kBit/sec. Exactly this minimum requirement to the speed for watching TV shows from your tablet. Stable, without jerking or freezing, the broadcast is guaranteed to go at a speed of 300 kBit/sec. If you know where you will use these services, check the Internet speed there in advance, if possible. Many have been developed for various gadgets free applications who will do it quickly.

You can watch television channels in full and for free only in the Russian Federation.

If you are abroad, then only some channels will be available at roaming rates, which, of course, are expensive. Therefore, take this into account when traveling abroad.

Connection

So, you have decided that you cannot do without TB in a tablet. We learned that:

  • along the route to work or to another city, coverage allows you to transfer data at sufficient speed to watch your favorite movie without problems;
  • at the dacha or somewhere in nature there is also 3 or 4G;
  • decide whether the price is acceptable for you,
  • the necessary TV channels or videos are included in the package;
  • dealt with incompatible tariffs.

To connect this use:

  1. personal account, where you can not only connect or refuse any options, but also control the expenditure of funds;
  2. dial the combination *111*835# and press call;
  3. send the message “835” to number 111.

For example, if at the end of the month it’s time to pay for the option, but you haven’t topped up your balance, then every day you will be charged 17 rubles until you top it up. You will receive an SMS message about this. And if you don’t pay attention to it or don’t log into your personal account in time, then in the end you may be in for an unpleasant surprise in the form of a zero or negative balance.

Shutdown

The operator offers 2 ways to disable the “MTS Tablet” option. You can refuse it:

  1. in your personal account;
  2. by typing the combination on the keyboard: *111*835*2#.
  3. Sometimes you need to know how to disable the provision service additional traffic. Just type a message with the text “1” (without quotes) and send it to number 8353. Reconnect – dial “2” and send it to number 8353.

Considering all of the above, this proposal can be recommended to those who want to have a relatively inexpensive and permanent mobile access to TV content. Provided you control your balance, you will receive excellent service, enjoyment in your free time and will not miss important events in the country and the world.
