Home Internet and Beeline TV: tariffs and connection

Interactive TV Beeline is a breakthrough in the digital field. The main feature combines two components needed today - digital TV and widescreen, high-speed, secure Internet. IPTV will allow you to access the Internet directly from a wide TV screen. What’s better than watching a movie in the evening on the TV screen or listening to background music in the morning before work?

Beeline tariffs - Internet + TV

The mobile operator offers its customers various tariffs for home with interactive TV and Internet. Some of them include free calls, SMS and mobile data on all devices, which is ideal for family customers. Others will be convenient for those who like to while away the evening watching TV. Let's look at them in more detail.

Line of tariffs “All in one”

By connecting to one of these packages, the subscriber receives not only mobile communications, but also free digital television and the Internet . Some of them contain from one to three family numbers with which you can share, as well as free minutes and messages, and gigabytes of mobile traffic. And all this is included in the subscription fee, meaning there are no additional costs for services.

Line of tariffs “Home with TV”

This line includes tariffs that include only home Internet and Beeline TV. When connecting any of them, the subscriber receives from 76 to 151 television channels, which will completely satisfy any movie fan.

Tariff “Bombic+”

“Bombic+” is a tariff specially designed for newcomers to the company. It has favorable conditions, which undoubtedly attracts customers. When connected, the user has access to the Internet at speeds of up to 100 Mbit/s and 104 channels of interactive digital television. And all this for 600 rubles a month. If necessary, you can purchase a Wi-Fi router that costs 150 rubles per month.

In addition, the company offers to connect wireless digital television , thanks to which you can watch high-quality Beeline TV anywhere in the apartment without the use of wires. To do this, you will need a Wi-Fi bridge, which must be connected to a TV set-top box and a Wi-Fi router. After this, you can watch TV without any additional settings.

Connection

Today, smart TV technologies are superior to the cable or public home antenna that many are accustomed to. All this is slowly but surely fading into the background. One of these innovations in the field of telecommunications is the previously described set-top box.

To make its use comfortable and convenient, you need to carry out the connection procedure correctly, in this case we will consider Beeline TV for one TV. But first, it is important to make sure that the Internet is connected to the house at a speed of at least 10 Mbit/sec, otherwise a successful TV connection will not be possible.

The set-top box is connected to the TV via an HDMI cable. If the TV is old enough, then they resort to using so-called tulips (several cables of different colors). Then there are two developments depending on the type of cable:

1. We connect hdmi with one end into the connector located on the back of the set-top box, and the other into the input intended for it on the TV.
2. Tulips are also connected to the router and TV, but not just one, but several corresponding outputs.

That's all for connecting smart equipment; after turning it on, the update process should start and after 15 minutes you can start configuring the existing set of equipment.

How to connect home Internet and TV on Beeline

Connecting to the Internet and television is possible in several options:

• in your personal account on the provider’s official website;
• by calling technical support;
• directly at the company office.

The simplest is the first method. In this case, you must submit a connection request by selecting the tariff you are interested in. In a few minutes, the operator will call you back, with whom you need to agree on the date and approximate time of connection. At the agreed time, the company’s installer will set up and connect the Internet to digital television, after which there will be one day left to pay for the service, which can be done through your personal account on the Beeline website.

Before submitting an application, you should check the house for the possibility of connecting to the Beeline network.

If desired, you can connect a second TV using the free Multiroom service. To do this, you will need a separate set-top box for each TV. In total, you can connect up to four devices, and they will all sync with each other. In this case, you will only need to pay for the main TV receiver, which you can configure yourself or with the help of a company technical specialist.

The mobile operator provides equipment for connecting the Internet and Beeline TV either as part of the tariff or in installments. This includes a Wi-Fi router that uses the ZigBee wireless protocol, allowing you to connect various cameras and sensors necessary for a smart home system. It is also designed for wired connection of a computer, TV set-top box and other devices. In addition, the company carries out all configuration of the equipment provided.

The customer can also use their own Wi-Fi router, provided it supports the 802.11n standard.

Additional service packages

When connecting to the Beeline Internet with digital TV, a number of additional services become available to the subscriber. For example, by using it you can borrow an amount on Beeline that allows you to extend the use of the Internet and TV for another week. Payment of the debt is possible either in full or in installments. The main condition is to pay the debt before the end of the current period.

Description and activation of the “Be at home” tariff from Beeline

The company provides a WI-FI router in installments, if it is not provided for free under the terms of the tariff package. Its cost in this case will be 150 rubles per month.

If you need to watch TV on two or more TVs, the provider provides an additional set-top box for rent, the cost of which is 230 rubles per month.

You can also use the “Move” option, which allows you to save all network settings, current tariff, equipment and additional services when changing your place of residence. This is possible provided that the new home is already connected to the Beeline network.

With the additional option, it is possible to adjust the speed of the Internet channel up to 100 Mbit/s, while remaining at the current tariff.

Active offers for modems

From April 2021, a new Beeline tariff for USB modems - Internet Pro - is open for connection.

The “Internet PRO+” tariff from Beeline is one of the most profitable and suitable for a modem.

This package replaced the archived “Internet for Computers”, which provided unlimited access from 01:00 to 08:00. In the new Internet tariff, while maintaining the subscription fee, the limit has increased (instead of 30 GB it became 60 GB), and it became possible to connect 4 additional numbers.

This package is currently not available for connection.

At the end of October 2021, the operator announced the launch of the new Internet Pro+. Internet traffic is also not taken into account at night; additional useful options have appeared.

Setting up and installing a TV set-top box

Instructions for setting up the Beeline set-top box directly depend on the model of the set-top box itself. Any of them can be found on the mobile operator’s website.

In order to use television, you must connect the set-top box to the TV using an HDMI cable . For older models, colored cables - tulips - are used for these purposes. After this, the set-top box needs to be connected:

• directly to the Beeline Internet line connected to the apartment;
• to the switch.

When you turn it on for the first time, the device's firmware will be updated, and it may also need to be activated. You can activate the set-top box in your personal account on the operator’s website.

The device allows you to block some channels, after which you can unlock the set-top box only using the PIN code specified in the instructions.

Is it possible to connect to the archive tariff?

It is impossible to connect a package through the website or buy a SIM card with an archived tariff in a communication store. But when transferring any service to the archive, the conditions for already connected clients do not change. Exceptions may be made for packages that are not valid for an extended period.

Such subscribers, having been notified in advance, are automatically transferred to one of the existing tariffs.

Despite the fact that it is officially impossible to connect to a package from the archive, there are several ways out of the situation:

1. Purchase a SIM card with the desired tariff connected directly. If such a SIM card is lost or blocked, only the person to whom it is registered can regain access to it.
2. Inform the consultant of your intention to change operator. To retain the client, the manager can offer a special tariff with favorable conditions.

The application can show TV channels via the mobile Internet. A television program is available there. But the main thing for us is the ability to use the application as an interactive remote control. You can switch channels, increase or decrease the volume, record or pause the broadcast. The program has many other features.

Troubleshooting

In the process of using the Internet and Beeline television, users have a question: where to call if the set-top box or high-speed Internet does not work. Therefore, each subscriber, when connecting to any service, must know how to behave in the event of various types of problems, such as:

• does not show Beeline TV;
• Internet speed does not correspond to the tariff plan;
• the channel list does not correspond to the tariff;
• lack of sound or image and others.

In most cases, all these problems are associated either with technical malfunctions on the server or with insufficient funds on the balance.

In case of any malfunction, you should undergo self-diagnosis on the company’s website. For this purpose, an online consultation is provided, during which you need to answer several suggested questions in order to identify the cause of the problem and eliminate it.

If your home television malfunctions, the cause may be a broken TV set-top box. If problems with the device appear quite often, it can be replaced or returned. Replacement or return of a rented TV set-top box takes place at the company’s service center. In this case, you need a complete set, with all the adapters, cables and remote control that you received when connecting the television. If some components are missing, you will have to purchase them yourself.

In any case, if problems arise with television and the Internet, you need to call the support phone number and explain the problem to a specialist. Qualified personnel will help find and eliminate the cause of the breakdown, or send a technician to the client’s address.

Description of television equipment

Almost every person in the house has a TV. But public channels are often not enough: their number is limited. If you connect a set-top box from Beeline, the selection of films and programs in high quality will expand.

Key Features

An analog connection is a continuous wave signal that can be easily disrupted. This causes interference and poor sound. The image quality decreases. Digital television is transmitted not by a wave, but by a special numerical code, which is more difficult to break. As a result, the video displayed on the screen is of higher quality - a bright picture, clear sound, and no distortion. Because of this, people are gradually abandoning analog TV.

The provider provides subscribers with TV equipment to receive high-quality digital TV through the network.

In addition to quality, the advantage also concerns the equipment. Digital encryption is a binary code that does not require complex chips to convert like an analog signal. This increases the wear resistance of the equipment and reduces its cost.

Thanks to compression standards, additional useful information can be transmitted - for example, an interactive TV program. This cannot be done with a wave signal.

With the help of a set-top box, the capabilities of a simple TV are expanded.

The user receives:

• more channels;
• high quality video and sound;
• access to additional functions - video rental, for example;
• Internet access, etc.

The exact list of functions depends on the characteristics of the selected set-top box.

How to turn off the Internet and TV

A complete shutdown of Beeline Internet and television is possible only at the company’s office, while paying off existing debts.

You can temporarily refuse cable TV and home Internet by using it, thanks to which you can suspend access to the network for ninety days without charging a monthly fee. You can activate such a service by calling the provider’s technical support service by number, or through your personal account on the official website.

The provision of services under most Beeline tariff plans can be suspended.

Voluntary blocking is free and lasts up to 90 days.

There are several ways to block an account:

• in “Personal Account” go to “Internet” - “Management” - “Temporary blocking”;
• Call the hotline number and voice your desire to the operator.

Features of the service:

• “Voluntary blocking” can be activated only with a positive balance;
• clients who use the prefix under the “Rent for 0” promotion can block the account for a maximum of 60 days;

Reviews about digital TV and the Internet

Most clients are satisfied with the services offered by the company:

• many note good Internet speed and connection quality;
• You can often read positive reviews about the technical support service: subscribers praise the politeness of the operators, their friendliness and quick resolution of problems;
• The advantages are a large number of channels offered and a huge film library, which is especially appreciated by those who like to while away the evening watching TV.

Complaints are mainly about the company's pricing policy, as well as network outages for some subscribers.
