Mobile routers 4G "MTS": tuning, features, reviews

Once again, mobile equipment manufacturers are offering buyers to plunge into the world of digital technology. This time, mobile 4G MTS routers are on the market, whose tasks are to provide the user with high-speed access to the Internet in any corner of the globe. However, it is immediately specified that the router works only in the coverage area of the LTE 4G network. Setting, characteristics, user reviews and expert recommendations will allow you to get acquainted with the novelty more closely.

General information

It's better to start from the gadget itself. Manufacturers managed to install a 4G receiver with a powerful antenna, a Wi-Fi module and a large battery in a small box (palm size). This router "MTS" 4G can be purchased for 2-3 thousand rubles.

There are many manufacturers in the modern market of mobile routers, but not all of them work with Russian mobile operators. This creates problems for some users who often visit other countries. In this article, the review will affect equipment that works without problems in LTE 4G networks of the operator "MTS".

Brand technologies

By purchasing a 4G LTE Wi-Fi router from MTS, the customer will certainly notice that for different models of devices there are several different markings. The fact is that the operator's network in Russia is the same, but different standards are used in each region. Accordingly, before buying a router, the user should check with the service provider, which standard is his equipment. In general, experts recommend buying universal devices that will work 100 percent in any Russian city, including Moscow, with the MTS communications operator.

Another problem that each user may encounter is the incompatibility of equipment for different mobile service providers. After all, each operator, trying to keep the client, does so that the wireless router does not work with 4G-cards of its competitors. Therefore, it is recommended to give preference to equipment that is amenable to modernization.

A simple solution

Routers 4G "MTS" modifications 823F are often offered to users in the form of a gift to a contract package with a VIP rate. In fact, in retail, in the windows of electronics stores, you can find the same device under the Huawei brand, which has a price of about 3000 rubles. The router is considered the best purchase for users on the basis of the "price-quality" ratio.

Mobile router "MTS" 4G supports all existing standards of mobile communication: 2G, 3G, 4G LTE. The device implemented the standard Wi-Fi 802.11n. The router supports WEP, WPA2 and WPA encryption. On the case there are two connectors for connecting amplification antennas, and a battery with a capacity of 1800 mAh is removable.

Functional deserving product

We continue to consider the router from "MTS". The WiFi 4G router demonstrates uninterrupted operation in the operator's networks regardless of the region. Some customers are confused by the lack of support for LTE-TDD Band 38 technology. A small loss in speed will be for Moscow users with a router "MTS" 823F. Unless the owners using the old mobile technology working on 802.11 a / b / c technology, this router may not be suitable.

As for the merits, they have a lot of mobile router. First, the body design. The power button, unlike the competitor's devices, is deeply embedded in the plastic case - this solution completely eliminates the accidental switching on and off of the router. The built-in card reader, which supports memory cards of up to 64 gigabytes, deserves positive feedback. In fact, this is a full-featured file server. The router works perfectly with Apple's hardware and has a built-in controller that can calculate the used traffic.

Above - only stars

As the king of all mobile routers in the domestic market is recognized a device from the company "MTS" - a router WiFi 4G "Connect-4". The device supports the operation of all existing wireless standards in the world. In addition, the router allows you to connect to a Wi-Fi network to all devices, regardless of the 802.11 standard. It is possible to talk about encryption and support of network protocols for hours. It's easier to note that there are no standards with which the router is unfamiliar. And if this happens, the firmware update will solve all the user's problems.

Unlike competitors, the device is able to send and receive messages in GSM networks if there is an appropriate card. At the hardware level, the router supports all known operating systems. The built-in 3000 mAh battery allows the router to work autonomously for at least 6 hours in a row. Confuses only the cost - 5000 rubles for a mobile router, a little expensive.

Chinese representative

In the domestic market, you can meet the products of the company ZTE, which many sellers offer as a 4G Wi-Fi router "MTS". Feedback from owners about this device is only positive. However, in order for the device to work in the networks of the mobile operator, it is necessary to solve the compatibility problem. The fact is that such devices are often programmed for a specific provider. Therefore, the router at the hardware level must support unlocking with a special code.

With the products of ZTE in this regard, complete order. The owner of the device can use the services of "MTS", "Megaphone", "Beeline" and cards of little-known operators. Only before installing the SIM card is required to constantly enter the unlock code, which can be obtained by using a special utility. Details about the application for obtaining the unlock code can be found on the Internet.

Choosing the Right Mobile Router

As practice shows, the majority of buyers purchased their 4G Wi-Fi router "MTS" from the operator in addition to one of the proposed packages. However, not all users initially understand what functionality they need from the device, and accordingly, they buy what the seller indicates. Only in the process of exploitation is found a lot of unpleasant little things that the work of the mobile router delivers:

1. Portability of work. In their reviews, experts recommend not chasing the large capacity of batteries in the device, because the price for a router is directly proportional to the size of the battery. If you need portability, it's better to look for a mobile charger. It will be able to charge not only the mobile router, but also the phone with the tablet.
2. Support for Wi-Fi standards. Not all smartphones and other mobile devices support 802.11n technology. This should be taken into account and select a router that supports the old standards.
3. Routers 4G "MTS" are often equipped with additional functionality that affects the price of the product. As practice shows, users rarely use such functions in their work.

Reviews

Acquaintance with the technical characteristics and review of popular models of devices are only able to tell the user what they should pay attention to when buying. But to decide whether to take this or that technique, only the recommendations of the customers who have already purchased the mobile router will help and have time to reveal all the advantages and disadvantages. Quite interesting is the router "MTS" 4G отзывы:

• Modification 833F because of a weak signal constantly goes into a sleeping mode (most likely, the big delay in the response of the remote server is recognized by the device as simple);
• Purchased mobile phones MTS mobile routers distract users of unnecessary advertising (it works at the level of firmware, so the need for help professionals in the field of IT to eliminate obsessive messages);
• The availability of WPS technology in the router significantly saves time for all users who want to quickly connect to a secure wireless Wi-Fi channel;
• When building a local network on the basis of several mobile devices, it is not recommended to use the maximum data transfer speed (the controller built into the router overheats and the device spontaneously turns off).

Finally

Judging by the feedback of the owners, 4G "MTS" routers are quite suitable for full-fledged work in mobile networks of operators throughout Russia. There are a few comments, but they are more organizational in nature and do not have a big impact on providing the user with broadband Internet access. At the moment, the mobile device market can not offer anything better, that's why the 4G "MTS" devices can be safely called the best purchase for all Internet users.
