4G in Moscow and Russia

02 January 2014
Fourth generation 4G communications is the Internet at speeds of up to 100 Mbit/s. So far, smartphones and 4G modems provide no more than 20 Mbit/s, but the potential for network development cannot be underestimated. Currently, there are two technologies on which 4G networks are based: Mobile WiMAX and LTE Advanced.

The second is more promising, since it is the next stage in the development of 3G, WiMAX is rather a separate branch of the evolution of broadband mobile Internet. The main “troika” of mobile operators use LTE. Even Yota, which initially worked in the WiMAX standard, switched to LTE in the spring of 2012.

A user in a 4G coverage area can transfer files, watch HD movies online, participate in video conferences, and launch augmented reality programs on their smartphone. The network can be used by rescuers, doctors, firefighters, and other emergency services.

COVERAGE AREAS

Beeline's 4G network is deployed mainly within the Moscow Ring Road. Kaliningrad became the second city with fourth-generation communications in the company’s robot zone in October 2013. Beeline also has 4G in Maykop, Gorno-Altaisk, and Astrakhan. In 2014, the operator plans to cover all million-plus cities in the country.

MTS has a wider coverage area, but it covers the capital's districts fragmentarily - according to the map on the company's official website, throughout Moscow there are areas not covered by the fourth generation Internet. For example, in the area of ​​the Baumanskaya metro station there is 4G, but in Lefortovo Park you will have to use 3G. The federal 4G network serves 13 regions.

MegaFon has the largest 4G coverage area in Moscow. It includes not only the capital, but also the largest cities of the Moscow region: Serpukhov, Kolomna, Dmitrov, Sergiev Posad, Solnechnogorsk and other cities. MegaFon's 4G zone covers Novoryazanskoye, Leningradskoye, Yaroslavskoye highways and other highways. In Russia, the operator provides 4G Internet to the largest cities: St. Petersburg, Kazan, Omsk, Novosibirsk, Yekaterinburg.

WIRED INTERNET OR 4G?

Just as mobile telephony is gradually making the home telephone unnecessary, so with the advent of high-speed mobile Internet, an attractive alternative to a wired connection appears. If 4G coverage already extends to your home, place of work or cottage, it is worth considering its features:
  • wireless Internet operates throughout Moscow, and where the 4G coverage area is interrupted, you can use 3G Internet;
  • at the same speed and traffic volume, the price of 4G will be 2–3 times higher;
  • LTE users cannot get external IP;
  • As a rule, mobile operators limit the amount of traffic.

HOW TO SWITCH TO 4G INTERNET?

To use the latest generation network, you need to do the following:
  1. Exchange your old SIM card with a USIM standard card from your operator. The exchange is free of charge and the number is retained. The card allows you not only to use high-speed Internet from MTS, Beeline or MegaFon 4G in the coverage area, but also to fully communicate by phone, and outside this zone to use 2G/3G Internet.
  2. Purchase a mobile device that works online, a 4G tablet or a suitable 4G modem.
  3. Sign up for an internet plan from your operator. For example, Megafon 4G is optionally available on all tariffs, while prices for 4G and 3G are practically the same.
To switch to 4G Internet, you do not need a special connection, everything happens automatically. As soon as the 4G coverage area ends, the connection switches to 2G or 3G without interruption.

So, if you are not ready to wait for 4G prices to drop and want to use fast mobile Internet in Moscow now, don’t delay. Of the three mobile operators, Megafon looks the most attractive - the company's 4G Internet has the widest coverage area and a wide range of tariffs.

In this article we will cover the topic of what Beeline coverage area is, as well as how to find out about its status in a particular region and solve connection problems.

Beeline coverage map and its features

Having studied the map of the location of the operator’s communication towers, you can see that the entire country is covered by them. But communication is not always present where there are well-equipped mobile operator stations. Why so, you ask.

Many users who do not know about the features of mobile communications attribute problems with it to the service operator. But this is far from true.

Network quality depends on many factors:

  1. Insufficient signal emission power from the base tower or the direction of the antennas is incorrect.
  2. Uneven distribution of base stations due to the peculiarities of the geographical location and architectural development of the settlement, resulting in incomplete coverage of the territory.
  3. The quality of communication also depends on the building density of the area, the layout of the building in which the subscriber is located, or even the thickness of its walls.
  4. Weather conditions play an important role– so, rain greatly affects the throughput of communication channels.

Mainly about connection quality and coverage areas the subscriber wants to know in the following cases:

  • Buying real estate (most often outside the city).
  • When going on a trip, picnic or vacation.
  • Going on a business trip.

Below you can see the coverage map:

By the way, on the map, large cities are generally shown with the best signal, but remote settlements, so to speak, the outback, cannot boast of this.

But here a surprise may await you - although the tower may not be indicated on the map, the operator’s connection in this area can be quite tolerable.

For what reason does this happen? Most often, a reflected signal is involved in this, although small inaccuracies in drawing up the coverage map cannot be ruled out.

Where can I get 3g and 4g signals from Beeline?

Having carefully studied the Beeline coverage map, you will notice that the Internet of these categories is not available everywhere. The best signals of 3g technology can be received in the central part of the country, but in the eastern and northern regions the situation is worse.


Regarding the Internet using 4g technology, the coverage here is much more modest. Base stations with this signal are located pointwise, which means that not all operator users can receive the signal.

4g Internet can be used by residents of the Moscow and St. Petersburg megacities, as well as their regions. Residents of certain central regions of Russia also have this advantage.

In other regions of the Russian Federation, 4g signals appear only in the largest cities - administrative centers of the regions where Beeline LTE base stations are located. This service is provided in 11 regions of the country, increasing its volume to cover more and more new territories every year.

Signal reception problems and how to solve this problem


As mentioned above, the absence of a signal or its poor quality occurs everywhere. And the operator is not always the reason for this. Now we would like to tell you what you can do if you have a bad operator signal on your phone.

Of course, complaining about a small number of base stations or their insufficient power will not speed up the process of installing new ones or upgrading old ones.

But by sending a request to the operator indicating your location and the characteristics of the signal you are receiving, you can be sure that the operator will definitely consider this request and check the settings of its stations in this region, which may simply need additional correction. That is why feedback from its users is very important for Beeline.

In addition, the problem may lie in the gadget itself, which simply does not receive a signal due to the fact that it does not support this type of communication. To avoid this, when purchasing equipment, be sure to ask the seller about the functions of receiving communication signals.

To solve connection problems in remote areas of the region where the signal does not penetrate well, such as in the country, you can install special cellular amplifiers.

It is also worth paying attention to the time of registration on the network. The fact is that during peak hours, when the network experiences a large influx of users, the signal scatters and there simply may not be enough for everyone, or its quality begins to “limp”.

It will be useful to view:

Grand total

In order to be connected, users need to have an idea of ​​the quality of communication in the area where they are located. To do this, the Beeline operator has posted a very accessible map of its network coverage on its website. If the subscriber is not satisfied with the signal quality, the company is always ready to listen and help solve the problem. In addition, today the solution to many connection problems is not limited to adjusting antennas at base stations, but you can find out exactly what solutions to problems exist in this article.

Instructions for using the card

The network coverage area has been developing since 2005. A significant part of the Moscow region can currently use the wireless fast Internet provided by our company. Every year the network is modernized using the latest data transmission technologies and is becoming more and more popular, providing its customers with favorable tariffs. Omstel keeps pace with modern mobile technologies. The 2G generation is already becoming obsolete and is being replaced by 3G and the recently introduced 4G.

3G coverage

3G coverage provides subscribers with high-quality Internet thanks to the HSDPA protocol. It effectively uses its radio channel and increases connection speed. For reliability, several information transfer protocols are used. It all depends on the signal level on the subscriber’s device. Owners of a wireless channel get access to HSPA+ technology, while some modems only support 3G. 3G coverage operates in the decimeter range of 2 gigahertz. Data transfer can now be carried out at a speed of 20 Mbit/s. Thanks to this it is possible:

  1. watch movies and videos online;
  2. download video and audio files;
  3. communicate via video calling.

In the Moscow region, about 80% of the territory is available for 4G connection. In the city itself, this network covers 99 percent of the territory. The speed of the Internet connection is affected by the distance of the subscriber from the base station and network congestion. Even if the subscriber has unlimited Internet, the operator’s priority is regular voice communication. But this prevents you from continuously using high-speed Internet.

4G coverage

Our company connects the fourth generation of the Internet – 4G. The speed of using this channel reaches 50 Mbit/s. Now you can download heavy files or launch the latest applications even faster. 4G coverage mainly covers cities such as Moscow, St. Petersburg, Yaroslavl, Samara and others. The company is currently working to ensure that as many people as possible can take advantage of its offers and connect to 4G. We also offer routers capable of processing information at speeds of 100 Mbps. When connecting, you can connect a special USIM card. It works on any device and improves security. You can choose a favorable tariff plan from us.

Having decided to buy a SIM card from any mobile operator, we don’t even ask ourselves whether it will work in a particular region. We do not ask these kinds of questions because we are confident that the coverage area is everywhere. Beeline is also not immune to this.

The operator's cell towers are located in all regions of our large country. All of them are capable of transmitting a 4G signal. This type of network is new and much faster than its predecessors. But the company does not limit itself to this and is constantly expanding. This is done so that all subscribers of the cellular operator can always stay in touch.

Features of 4G from Beeline

To attract as many customers as possible, the operator began to actively upgrade its cell towers to 4G networks. This company was one of the last to begin updating its network to this type of communication. However, this gave huge advantages in terms of stable data transfer at maximum speeds of up to 100 Mb/s. Thanks to the installed Beeline LTE base stations, which allow operation at a frequency of only 900 MHz, it has taken the lead among competing companies.

The company is currently working on a new 5G connection that will allow data transfer speeds of up to 200-300 MB per second. The launch of this connection is planned for 2020. By this time, even the most remote corners of the Russian Federation will be equipped with base stations. If we compare the signal reception of the Beeline operator and any other operator indoors, it turns out that the company has a huge advantage in the frequency of signal reception and transmission, without any delays or interference.

Beeline operator network coverage area

The first city where the company launched a 4G network as an experiment was Moscow. Testing began to be carried out in the central part of the city, gradually expanding beyond this zone and spreading throughout the entire territory. The fourth generation of the network can currently be enjoyed in more than eighteen regions of Russia. Which gives the company the right to take first place among cellular operators.

If we look at the example of cities such as Elista and Maykop, it becomes clear that this type of network covers 80% of the territory of these cities, previously it was only 10-15%. The use of the 4G LTE network provided by Beeline operates even in the Yuzhno-Sakhalin region, which is the most remote region of the Russian Federation.

The company measured the highest data transfer speeds in most of Russia, during which it was found that the highest speed at the moment is 70Mb/s.

These measurements are a direct basis for the development and achievement of great results in data transmission.

A map of Beeline's coverage area is publicly available on the official website. To study it in detail and understand whether this type of connection exists in your region, just go to the “coverage and offices” section, where, by selecting one or another network option, you can see the signal coverage area.

If, when studying the coverage area, you notice an LTE network, do not be upset, this is the same 4G connection, only in a more advanced and lightweight format. Beeline has an active 4G+ option that allows you to use data transfer at speeds of up to 150 Mb/s. Which is undoubtedly another undeniable advantage of other operators. However, like most Beeline cannot be called ideal.

What to do if the connection has shortcomings or is completely absent?

It happens that there is no coverage area in a certain place in a populated area. This is not the company’s fault, but a large part depends on the geolocation of the cell tower, which can be caused by difficulties in receiving a cellular signal or its complete absence.

What are the reasons for this?

This happens due to the strength of the reflected signal. Such a signal is capable of appearing in places that simply should not exist. For example, on a mountainside or in a separate part of a forest. Such phenomena are explained by radio wave activity and the characteristics of its propagation.

Now let's talk a little about the disadvantages. All innovations or improvements have their downsides, and 4G LTE communication also has it. Such a network consumes a very large amount of energy. At the moment, there are not enough cell phones capable of operating in this type of network, as evidenced by the availability of only voice data transmission. Beeline continues to be one of the leading operators, despite the problems with communication in small settlements in several regions.

How to influence the solution of problems with cellular communications?

It is unlikely that we will be able to exert any influence on the cellular operator to install additional stations or towers. But it is quite possible to influence the ability to correct communication problems by adjusting antennas or new equipment measurements. To do this, if there is no connection in some sparsely populated areas of the Russian Federation, although it should be there, you should make a written request to adjust and correct this situation.

Modems and WiFi routers 4G LTE & 3G. Internet 4G LTE & 3G. 4G LTE & 3G network coverage

Attention! An overview of 3G / 4G LTE coverage in Crimea is at the bottom of the page!

Every day we see and hear in the media advertisements for 4G LTE 3G USB modems from the Big Three operators: MTS, Megafon, Beeline, but what exactly are they selling?

If you pay attention, operators, when advertising the services of providing wireless mobile high-speed Internet 4G LTE and 3G, do not declare the access speed, but the speed of the modem or router that supports this function. By and large, there is no deception - modems and routers advertised by MTS, Megafon and Beeline can indeed support high-speed data transfer functions up to 100 Mbit/s, up to 150 Mbit/s, and some - up to 300 Mbit/s, but can operators provide such speeds in reality and coverage area so that routers and modems “fly”, as they say and show in advertising?

We’ll answer right away: in 99% of cases - no, you will not get speeds of 100-300 Mbit/sec. But are such speeds needed by the average user, especially in the countryside, who is not spoiled by the availability of Internet access in rural areas? Also no: people want to get at least 10-15 Mbit/s for normal work on the Internet, with email, social networks and cloud technologies.

Let's take a look at the Big Three operators and the services they provide. Below are maps of 4G LTE and 3G coverage of Megafon, MTS, Beeline and Tele2 in the Moscow region.

On the MTS map, the coverage area in the Moscow region looks a little worse, but is very similar to the Megafon coverage area: if the capital is covered almost completely, then the Moscow region is covered by about three quarters, and the coverage is more “ragged”, which may be associated with real " holes" and with the map being closer to the practical coverage area of ​​4G LTE and 3G. Until recently, there was no question of any dacha Internet 4G LTE 3G with high speed, except for the main settlements, most of which were located within the Small Moscow Ring (the so-called “betonki”), but now most large settlements can afford 4G Internet, and almost all populated areas
kty - Internet 3G. I recently heard a friend say that MTS is “tweaking something all the time” - this meant that the coverage area of ​​MTS 4G LTE 3G is constantly increasing, and the speed is growing month by month, although residents of the Moscow region will not soon wait for the ideal network coverage, and this is precisely the coverage of MTS due to the peculiarities of the terrain and geographical locations of settlements. It should also be noted that MTS tariffs (as well as those of other operators) for data transfer (access to the Internet) still leave much to be desired, although they are gradually decreasing. When purchasing an MTS device, it will not be amiss to know that the 3G UMTS standard of this operator can operate not only at a frequency of 2100 MHz, but also at a frequency of 900 MHz - MTS UMTS 900 base stations are located in the Moscow Region, mostly from the Minsk Highway (and the surrounding area) to Kashirskoe Highway (and the surrounding area), although single BCs can be found in almost any area of ​​the Moscow region, and 4G LTE BSs are generally installed in 3 frequency bands: 2600 MHz (main) 1800 MHz and 800 MHz, which is extremely difficult, but you can try according to the MTS coverage map (like other operators, since the others also use all three 4G standards): 4G 2600 MHz BS coverage radius - 1.5-2 km, 3G 2100 MHz radius - 2-2.5 km, LTE 1800 MHz radius is 4-5 km, 3G 900 MHz radius is up to 10 km, LTE 800 MHz radius is up to 12 km.

Beeline was the last of the Big Three operators to provide mobile services.Internet in Moscowregion, therefore Beeline’s 4G LTE coverage area is the smallest: only large cities and certain areas of the Moscow region are covered, but there are still quite large areas where Beeline does not have 4G coverage, although 3G coverage, if you look at the map, is almost everywhere - in our opinion, this has more to do with the ability to draw than with the actual Beeline 3G coverage. It is difficult to understand the real 3G coverage, because... it is painted in yellow on a white background, which makes it very difficult to perceive, so you can understand from the map that Beeline’s 3G coverage is worse or better,
than competitors, it is impossible, but it is very easy to understand that the development of the fourth generation LTE network is the slowest. With all this we must pay tribute:on the borders of the Moscow region there are places where 3G works only for Beeline, and the other 2 players have gaps. Beeline also uses all available frequencies: 3G-900, 3G-2100, 4G-800, 4G-1800, 4G-2600, and does it as needed: in sparsely populated areas and where the frequency of 2100 is blocked by the military, it uses low frequencies , and in cities - high. It is also worth adding that Beeline does not have time to install towers behind its own advertising, so in some places there is an overload or inability to connect to the BS.

3G and 4G coverage in Crimea and Sevastopol.

Those who want to relax in Crimea in 2019, having high-speed 3G or 4G Internet access, will be pleasantly surprised: the peninsula is almost 90% covered by a third-generation network (in places where people permanently reside, 3G may not be available on wild beaches), therefore, if you cannot do without the Internet (due to work or because of addiction), you should choose a vacation spot in accordance with the coverage map, but compared even to the beginning of 2016, this is much easier to do. It must be said right away that LTE 4G in Crimea is still extremely poorly developed - a little more than 150 base stations have been installed by the operator K-Telecom (WIN mobile brand) in several large cities: Sevastopol, Simferopol, Yalta, Kerch,Alushte et al., installed about the same number of KTK-Telecom (Volna Mobile), which is where the 4G coverage ends. With 3G UMTS coverage, things are better: network coverage extends to almost the entire tourist area. Of course, large populated areas (cities and towns) are primarily covered, so if you want to relax in the private sector away from the main centers of recreation or on wild beaches, then be sure toYou are prepared to be left without 3G if you do not use a 3G antenna. 3G and 4G coverage from WIN Mobile and Volna are similar, like twin brothers, so it seems that they use the same BS.

3G coverage is tens of times greater than 4G coverage (small dark spots on maps are LTE), so when going to Crimea, you don’t have to take 4G devices - just buy a 3G modem or router, although all 4G devices support 3G.

Being in these coverage areas or no more than 10 km from them (an antenna will definitely be needed here), it is possible to use ultra-high-speed 4G Internet. If you live in Crimea or are visiting there for a long time, but you are not satisfied with the quality of 3G / 4G LTE Internet, we recommend that you consider ready-made 3G 4G kits for use in private homes, apartments and offices, which will help strengthen and stabilize the signal, as well as receive a signal where there is none.

For use in areas with a strong signal in shielded rooms, an amplification kit with an adjustable repeater 1800/2100 MHz is suitable - it will not only strengthen voice (telephone) communications, but also “raise” 3G mobile Internet, and in large cities - 4G LTE.

With a very high probability you will find 4G LTE in Sevastopol and Balaklava, Simferopol and Perevalny, on the Southern Coast from Foros to Gurzuf (only in large NPs), in Sudak and Old Crimea, in Kerch and other settlements:

Sevastopol and its surrounding area also have their own 3G operator - Sevmobile (Sevtelecom), which has coverage from Sevastopol (inclusive) almost to Alupka, and along the west coast to Vilino, covering the main part of Bakhchisarai. Unfortunately, it is impossible to understand where the operator’s BS is located, because The coverage area map presented on the official Sevmobile website is very specific and conditional. Based on it, we can conclude that 3G coverage from Sevtelecom is available in the following settlements: Sevastpol, Sugarloaf, Inkerman, Chernorechye, Foros (?), Parkovoe, Orlinoe, Rodnikovoe, Peredovoe, Rodnoe, Sokorlinoe, Golubinka, Kholmovka, Vernesadovoe, Fruktovoye, Bakhchisarai (part of the city - approximately 2/3), Dolinnoye, Solnechny, Ulovoe, Vilino and others.
