Greetings, friends. In this note I will gradually compile a short list of common questions and answers regarding the Beeline Smartbox router. Please indicate in the comments what general questions you think should be added here. Do you have a question? Check if this post contains an answer to it.

Question:
What kind of Beeline Smartbox device is this? Answer:
Beeline Smartbox is a branded router from the Beeline provider, originally designed to work only in Beeline networks.
The router itself is manufactured by Sercomm in Taiwan by order of Beeline. The router is based on a reference board based on Realtek 8197D
. The router has support for IPTV (via wire, the port is selected in the settings) and the ability to use it as network storage

Specifications:

Chip: Realtek 8197D (600 MHz) RAM: 64 MB Wi-Fi: 802.11b/g/n 300Mbps, 2 internal antennas: 2×2 MIMO Interfaces: 5 RJ-45 connectors with auto-detection of cable type, USB 2.0 port.

Question:

Is it worth buying this router?
Answer:
It all depends on your needs, but I would not recommend buying a router at the official Beeline price (1200 rubles), since for this money you can buy the more technically interesting and problem-free Zyxel Keenetic Lite 2. This router works well with Beeline networks and is well suited undemanding user.
It makes sense to buy if you get the router significantly cheaper than its official
price.

Question:

Is it possible to make the router work with another provider?
Answer:
In a number of cases, when the provider provides the Internet directly via DHCP (without any tunnels, “insert a wire - it works”) or using a PPPoE tunnel, configuration is not difficult and is done under a superuser account. Instructions for obtaining privileges. Detailed instructions for setting up the Internet from another provider are described.

Question:

The router has a USB port.
What can it be used for? Answer:
via USB to the router you can connect flash drives, external hard drives (subject to additional power supply) to provide access to them over the network (for organizing network storage, for example), and also some usb modems.

Question:

Is it possible to use a router with 3g modems?
Answer:
Yes, starting with firmware version
2.0.25
, the ability to work with 3g modems in Wi-Fi distribution mode has been added. To configure, you need to log in as a superuser and go to: Advanced settings - Other - Wan, select the item with 3g and make the necessary settings, and also mark the interface as active (checkmark) The list of working routers is not yet known, but most likely it is similar to the same for Zyxel. The main thing is that if the 3g modem does not work, do not forget to switch it to “modem only” mode (there are enough instructions on the Internet).

Question:

The Wi-Fi connection is unstable, despite
the high signal level
. What should I do? Answer: Change the Wi-Fi channel in the router settings and also try to reduce the Wi-Fi power (paradoxically, high power does not always give satisfactory communication quality) and also rearrange the router.

Question:

Wi-Fi is unstable.
Signal level is low
.
What should I do? Answer:
This is a common problem with routers with built-in antennas (especially those with low gain). First, try moving the router and removing obstacles between the router and wi-fi clients. Then, if the result is still unsatisfactory, try replacing the built-in antennas with external ones. To do this you need 0): 1) Replace the wires going to the antennas with a U-fl – SMA wire (on one side there is a ufl connector for connecting to the wi-fi board, on the other there is a sma connector for connecting an external antenna) and it looks like this:

Its cost on Ebay is in the range of 30-100 rubles, depending on the length, quality of workmanship and the impudence of the seller (I took around 70 rubles). This also happens in Russian online stores, but extremely rarely 2) Take the connector out of the case and connect any Wi-Fi antenna you have. You can use an antenna from any popular router, for example dlink, or purchase it at a computer store for 100-400 rubles. The antenna looks like this (for those who don’t know). If after this the signal is still unsatisfactory, then most likely you should change the router to a more powerful one.

Question

: Can I use the router in repeater (repeater) mode?
Answer
: Yes, it is possible. To do this, switch the hardware switch on the router case to REP mode and make the necessary settings.

Question:

I want to help/tinker with the firmware.
How can I do this? Answer:
Great. Use the following.

Question:

Is it possible to install alternative firmware on the router?
Answer:
Yes, it is possible to install OpenWRT firmware on the router, but this currently requires disassembling the device and soldering it to the UART connector (you must use a usb-uart adapter for connection). There is also a risk of “killing” the device. Think about whether it's for you. Detailed instructions will appear on the website a little later.

Question:

One USB port is not enough for me.
Is it possible to add another usb to the device. Answer
: Yes, it is possible, but it requires certain skills and straightness of hand. (difficult and precise soldering) The board was originally designed to use 2 USB ports, but one was removed to reduce the cost. You can solder it and use it. Instructions will come later.

Understanding routers


You can use special routers to connect a Beeline smart box and enjoy your favorite shows and movies at any time of the day at an affordable price.
In order to connect a smart box from Beeline, not every router is suitable. Some of the models are not supported at all, others are already outdated and will not be able to fully cope with all the necessary functions. Therefore, it is best to install the choice on those routers that are recommended by the company representatives themselves.

Recommended routers for Beeline smart box

In order to easily connect your Beeline home Internet, experts recommend choosing one of the four best router models. They have a huge number of capabilities, so they can easily cope with their goals and provide users with truly high-quality Internet.

You can purchase SmartBox Turbo-Plus at an affordable price. This router has a high-performance process and sufficient memory. At the same time, it has a fairly high throughput, which reaches 2 Gbit/s. The module, which has multiple antennas, operates in two different bands. 19 different devices can connect to such a router. In this case, each frequency will have its own individual network. The router has established itself as a reliable and proven device with a long service life. Perfect for connecting home wireless Internet from Beeline.

Smart Box One is considered a budget model and can transmit the necessary data at a fairly high speed - about 100 Mbit/s. The router is designed in such a way that it works perfectly with the BeeLine TV service. Ideal for connecting tariffs such as “Bombic” or “Fantastic”. There are several ways to establish a connection and each user can choose the most suitable option.

Smart Box Professional differs from other models of recommended routers in that it contains a new generation module. Due to this, it was possible to significantly increase the range of the wireless Internet. In this case, operation is supported simultaneously in two different ranges. A huge advantage of this router model is the presence of two USB ports. Additionally, the device has a modern, attractive design and can be easily mounted on a wall, where it will be completely safe from mechanical damage.

Supported Models

Not only recommended router models can work with Beeline, but also those that are no longer on sale. It is worth noting that in such a situation it is advisable to either download or update the firmware for them, which is provided directly by the employees of the telecommunications company. The following router models can be used to connect to Beeline Internet.
