- connect the receiver and smartphone (tablet) to the network;
- configure the service;

The left side of the screen contains icons that have a corresponding theme according to the list. Center – list of possible broadcasts. Top bar: search bar, list of recommendations. The right side is the TV program.
Other options
In principle, you can duplicate broadcasts from a TV connected to Tricolor TV to a computer located in the same house without connecting to a special service. But for this you will have to do a small upgrade of your PC. You need to install a video capture card on it, popularly called a TV tuner.
This device is subsequently connected to the receiver via a standard cable. The order of connection and further settings will depend on the model of the board and the connectors available on it. If the user does not have enough experience in this area, it is better to entrust this to professional systems specialists. After connecting and installing the drivers, you will be able to view on your computer the same channels that the TV receiver broadcasts.
The ability to view different channels on different devices also exists. Only in this case it is necessary that the converter installed on the plate have two outputs instead of one. You will also have to purchase a DVB-S2 card, which is connected to a Tricolor smart card and installed in the computer. A cable is pulled from the converter to the card, and then the software necessary for viewing is installed on the PC (usually comes with the card).
However, these solutions can be called semi-legal, since their implementation requires equipment not approved by Tricolor. If any failure occurs as a result of this connection, you will not be able to receive support from the broadcast operator.

The only drawback is the need for a stable Internet connection. If Wi-Fi is weak, not all content can be watched in HD quality.
Other connection methods
In addition to receiving a signal from a satellite dish or via Wi-Fi, the receiver can operate from an Ethernet cable and a 3G\4G modem. To configure a receiver with such connections, you just need to select the appropriate type of “connection” and wait for all settings to be automatically applied. In rare cases, mainly due to software errors, you may need to enter data manually.
All data can be taken from the agreement with the provider. If necessary, call your Internet operator.

Who can use the service?
There are no strict restrictions preventing certain categories of viewers from watching online television. The only mandatory requirement that must be met is that the viewer must be a subscriber of the company.
At the same time, there are several ways to legitimize relations with a provider and conclude a subscription agreement:
- by contacting the nearest dealership;
- free by calling the contact number 88005000123.
The first approach is more convenient if the user has purchased a receiver to watch TV, the second is more profitable if the client has a smart TV. In this case, a prefix is not required, and therefore there is no point in visiting the dealer. At the same time, people who call the support service should be honest, since deception will be a reason to refuse to conclude a contract or terminate it in the future.
