Probably, in the twenty-first century no one can live without the Internet. Therefore, if you need a high-speed connection anywhere in the city, then modems from are the ideal solution. It is worth adding that they can connect not only to personal computer or laptop, but also to tablets and routers.
Not everyone knows how to configure and connect a modem, so we have written a training article especially for people like you, which describes the entire operating process in detail.
We connect the MTS modem to the computer
The very first step is to connect the modem to the computer. This is quite simple to do, just plug it into a free USB port and install the drivers. Initially, the equipment will detect the device as a CD, but after a few seconds the computer will automatically start installing components and the main management program - MTS Connect Manager. Here the user does not need to do anything, because the technology will do everything for him in automatic mode, and you just have to wait. Upon completion of the installation process, the modem will no longer be reflected as a CD-ROM, but as a full-fledged flash drive. A MTS Connect Manager shortcut will also appear on the desktop.
Immediately after this, click on it, the program will start, click on the “connect” button and that’s it. Great, now you have a high-speed connection that you can use anywhere in the city. Launch your browser and feel free to use the World Wide Web.
Perhaps that's all that needs to be done. Some users may have connection problems, in which case try plugging the modem into another USB port, restart your computer and clean the system of various debris.
If you want to work with a modem from MTS, but at the same time use the services of another operator, then reflash the device.
How to connect an MTS modem to a router?
Many people know that all routers are different, and their price directly depends on their capabilities. So, to some models you can connect a USB modem, which will “inflate” the Internet throughout the room. But the price of such a device will be slightly higher, because not every router will be able to support 3G or 4G connections. So, how to connect a modem to a router?
- Make sure your devices are compatible.
- Install the modem in the router.
- Install necessary settings in the web interface.
If you specify as a dial-up number *99# and the address of the access point internet.ms.ru, then a 3G or 4G connection will be automatically created in the settings. Or you can simply install automatic setup connecting the router immediately after turning it on. Some models provide pre-set settings for all Russian operators.
If you encounter problems connecting the modem to the router, try updating the software or purchasing more new model router.
The process of connecting a modem from MTS to a tablet
In this case, everything is somewhat more complicated, however, almost every user manages to cope with the task. Otherwise, just seek help from a professional. So how do you connect a modem to your tablet?
On at this stage there are two possible options developments: if the tablet has a USB connector or if not. In the first case there will be no problems. Plug the device into the port, create a high-speed connection, specify the dial-up number *99# and access point internet.mts.ru and enable data transfer. Ready.
In the second case, you need to dig around. Install the program " Hyper Terminal» on the computer to get through it to the tablet. Immediately after starting the program, select the desired device, enter the command ate1, and then AT^U2DIAG=0. Click OK.
Attention! Combination AT^U2DIAG=0 created for modems from HUAWEI. If yours is from another company, then find the appropriate command specifically for it.
Many Chinese companies require the connection of a USB modem, so our main task is to change the perception of a flash drive as a CD-ROM to USB. Next you need to configure the connection.
The process of disconnecting the modem from MTS
If the user decides to stop using the MTS modem, then he needs to turn it off. This is done very, very simply. We interrupt the connection in the MTS Connect modem management program (if on a PC) or stop data transfer (if on a tablet). We remove the modem from the USB port.
Modems from MTS are a great way to connect to high-speed Internet from anywhere in the city. And few people know that the modem can be connected not only to a computer - it easily connects to tablet PCs and routers. And in order to figure out how to connect an MTS modem to a particular device, we wrote this educational review. In it we will take a detailed look at the process of connecting USB modems to all Internet devices.
Let's start the review by connecting the MTS modem to the to a regular computer. And it doesn’t matter at all whether it’s a laptop or a desktop PC. Connect the modem to a free USB port and we are waiting for the results. As soon as they are installed necessary drivers, we will find that a removable optical CD-ROM media has been connected to the system - this is how the modem equipment is initially determined.
Immediately after detecting the media, autorun will work, which will begin to install the MTS Connect Manager program. During the software installation process, all necessary components and drivers will be installed, after which the modem will be recognized as a composite USB device - a drive and, in fact, the modem itself. The installation is extremely simple, the user will only have to click on the Next button a few times - the installation process will do the rest itself. As a final result, we will find a shortcut for the MTS Connect Manager program on the table.
We launch the program, wait for the modem to initialize and click on the connect button - the connection will be established in a matter of minutes, after which you can launch the browser and start going about your business on the World Wide Web. That's all - there is nothing complicated in the process of connecting the modem to the computer. If something goes wrong, try installing it on a different port. If this does not help, you should clean the system of accumulated garbage with some kind of cleaner (a program for cleaning the operating system).
Try to connect the modem to the same port, which will save you from waiting for re-installing drivers on the device.
If you want to use the services of another operator without changing your existing MTS modem, then you can reflash your MTS modem.
How to connect a modem to a router
Some routers have the ability to connect USB modems. Thanks to this, they can “distribute” network access to other users (via Wi-Fi or cable). For this purpose, it is best to choose the most advanced router model that supports all modern 3G and 4G modems.
How to connect an MTS modem to a router? Everything happens in a few steps:
- We make sure that the equipment is compatible;
- Install the modem into the router’s USB port;
- We go to the web interface of the router and make the necessary settings.
In the settings we need to create a connection to 3G and 4G networks by creating the appropriate profile and indicating in it the dial-up number *99# and the address of the access point internet.ms.ru. If necessary, indicate automatic installation connections when turning on the router (the most convenient option). By the way, some routers already have settings built into them for all Russian operators.
If your modem is not compatible with the router, you need to update the router software or replace it with a more advanced and modern model.
How to connect an MTS modem to a tablet
Here everything is somewhat more complicated, but 90-95% of users will be able to cope with the task. If something doesn’t work out, you’ll have to contact specialized specialists. So, how to connect an MTS modem to a tablet? Two options await us - if the tablet supports connecting USB modems, then everything will go smoothly.
We take the modem itself and a special cable for connecting external devices(OTG cable), connect the device to the micro-USB port. A 3G symbol (or a scale showing the network signal strength) should appear next to the clock. Next, create a connection in the tablet settings (in the settings wireless networks), indicate there the access point internet.mts.ru and the dial-up number *99#. We activate data transfer and enjoy the result.
The second option is that the tablet may not see the modem - this is due to the fact that it is defined as a removable device (CD-ROM). In this case, you need to connect the modem to the computer and get into it using the program "Hyper Terminal". When you start the program, a window will open asking you to select the device you want to connect to - select our modem. After establishing the connection, enter the command ate1, after which we enter the command AT^U2DIAG=0. Entering both commands should result in an OK response.
The AT^U2DIAG=0 command is intended for most modems from HUAWEI. If an error occurs while entering the command, try searching for the AT command for specific model modem
The essence of all the above movements boils down to the fact that we must get rid of the definition of a modem as a composite device (modem + CD-ROM), since first of all it is defined as a CD-ROM. And many tablets (especially Chinese) require that it be identified as a modem. After this, you can connect the device to the tablet port and configure the connection.
How to disable MTS modem
Disabling modems is very simple - interrupt the connection in the MTS Connect program (or disable data transfer on the tablet PC), and then remove the device from the USB port. Perhaps you do not want to disable, but unlock your MTS modem. In this case, read the article at this link.
Using USB modems is easy and simple. Installing drivers and software occurs automatically after connecting the modem to the computer and takes a minimum of time. Ingoda, however, some user participation in the process is still required. But first things first.
Remove the cover from the modem and install the SIM card into the slot. Close the lid and plug the modem into the USB port of your computer.
The operating system should automatically detect and recognize the new device and begin installing drivers. All information is displayed in the taskbar in the form of pop-up messages.
After installing the drivers, the software installation will begin. When the software autorun window appears, launch the installer wizard by clicking the “Run AutoRun.exe” button.
If the installation wizard does not start automatically, locate the AutoRun.exe file and run it manually. To do this, open “My Computer” and the CD drive with the Connect Manager program recorded on the modem’s flash memory, and double-click on AutoRun.exe.
In the installation wizard window that opens, select the desired language, click “Ok” and follow the installer’s instructions.
Once the installation is complete, launch Connect Manager using the desktop shortcut. A few seconds after launch, the program will record the presence of a signal. Pay attention to its strength, characterized by the indicator reading in the upper right corner of the window.
For some modem models, the signal strength depends on their orientation in space. If the signal is not strong enough, you can try connecting the modem via a cable that allows you to change the orientation of the modem. After each position change, it takes a few seconds for the modem to display the signal strength corresponding to the new position.
All necessary USB modem settings are set by default. To access the Internet after launching the program and detecting a signal, you only need to press the “Connection” key in the “Connect” menu. The connection setup is accompanied by a melodic sound signal and the appearance of graphical display of traffic.
For manual settings modem, you need to open the “Settings” menu. In the “Network” option you can set the network and signal format – EDGE/GPRS or 3G. By default, network and signal selection is set to automatic. To set the parameters manually, you need to click on the name of the network (MTS RUS 3G in the picture) right click mouse and select the “Manual” option. After this, the signal will be scanned and a list of all networks detected by the modem will be displayed. All that remains is to select the required one (MTS RUS 3G in our case) and click “Select”.
In the “Operations with PIN” option, you are prompted to enter a PIN code. By default it is not required.
In the “Modem setup” option, you set the APN access point (internet.mts.ru), dial-up number (*99#), password (mts) and login (mts) for the connection. The password and login fields can be left empty.
In addition to the “Connect” and “Settings” options, the program also contains the “SMS”, “Balance” and “Calls” options. From the Calls menu you can make voice communication. To do this, you will need a headset with a microphone and headphones or speakers with a microphone.
From the “Balance” menu, the current balance is checked. To do this, click on the “Check Balance” button.
In the “SMS” menu, you can send and check incoming SMS.
Some additional settings modem can be configured in Device Manager. To do this, open the “Control Panel” and launch the “Device Manager”. Right-click on the modem (in this case ZTF Proprietary) and select “Properties”.
It seems that in the 21st century many people cannot imagine life without using the Internet. Due to such circumstances, if you need a high-speed Internet connection in all parts of the city, then modems from Mobile TeleSystems are an excellent choice. It is worth noting that they can be connected to a PC, a laptop, as well as a tablet computer or router.
Not everyone knows about connecting a modem and its settings, therefore in this educational article below we have thoroughly described the progress of the work.
We connect the MTS modem to the computer
The very first step to take is, of course, simply connecting it to a device, such as a PC. This is easy to do. Place it in the hole of a free USB connector and install the drivers. At first the PC will detect it as a CD, however, within a couple of seconds the PC will automatically will begin installing components and special program for management – “MTS-Connect Manager”. At this stage, the user is not required to perform any actions, because the PC will do all this automatically, you just need to wait. When the modem installation process is displayed as a CD-ROM, it will become a full-fledged flash drive. A shortcut called “MTS-Connect Manager” will appear on the desktop screen.
After completing these steps, click on the shortcut, the program will be launched, click “Connect”. That's all! From then on, you will have a high-speed connection that you can use in any part of the city. Once you launch your browser, feel free to access global network.
In general, these are all the actions that need to be performed. However, some users may encounter problems connecting. The solution is this: place the modem in the hole of another USB port, restart the computer and clean the system of various debris.
We strongly recommend that you use one port consistently to avoid having to re-install drivers.
For those who want to use a modem from the MTS operator, but at the same time use the services of another cellular company, then it needs to be reflashed.
How to connect an MTS modem to a router
Most people know that there are various routers, the prices of which depend on the capabilities of these devices. It is possible to connect USB modems to some of the models, which will allow you to distribute the Internet throughout the entire room.
