For a long time, many companies have been providing Internet access services via USB modems. If you have chosen the MegaFon company, then consider a few subtleties of using these devices.
Instructions
Step 1
First, choose the plan that's right for you. If you rarely use mobile Internet, then it is not always rational to use an unlimited tariff with a fixed monthly fee. Perhaps it would be wiser to choose payment for the spent traffic. Purchase a MegaFon USB modem and a corresponding sim card.
Step 2
Turn on your mobile computer and connect the MegaFon modem to it. If after a while the startup window appears, then select the Setup.exe item. Install the proposed program. It will be required to configure the modem parameters and to connect to the Internet.
Step 3
Run the installed application. Open the Options menu and navigate to the Network submenu. In the Network Type tab, set the WCDMA Only option if you want to always connect to 3G networks. In the next paragraph, specify the parameter "All ranges". If the 3G network signal is too weak in a certain geographic area, then change the WCDMA parameter to GSM.
Step 4
If, during connection, a failure occurs at the stage of determining the IP address for the desired network card, then open the program and go to the "Settings" menu. Click the General tab. Check the box next to the "Run at the same time as Windows" option, so as not to manually start the program. Now activate the item RAS (modem). Click the "OK" button and try to connect to the network.
Step 5
Remember that the speed of Internet access using a USB tethering can sometimes be poor. Try additional software such as Traffic Compressor. Sometimes such utilities can give a tangible increase in the speed of loading pages. Install the Traffic Compressor application and launch it. Specify the nominal speed of your Internet connection and let the utility work in automatic mode.
