Gradually, classic MMS messages are fading into the background. They are being replaced by more advanced and, moreover, free messengers such as WhatsApp, Telegram, Viber and others. However, subscribers continue to use multimedia messages. Let's see how.
Conditions for successful setup
In order for sending MMS to be successful, it is important to comply with some conditions:
- The balance of the number must be positive and sufficient to send at least one MMS.
- The number must not be blocked in any way.
If these simple conditions are met, then you can safely start setting up the reception and sending of MMS.
Automatic configuration request
At a time when there were no modern instant messengers, and the only ICQ at that time on the phone worked with varying success, subscribers quite often used MMS to exchange pictures, melodies, congratulations and so on. The operator's contact center received a lot of calls related to and MMS. Automatic settings have been designed specifically to minimize these queries.
- Tele2, like all other providers, made sure that the settings were sent to the subscriber immediately automatically as soon as he inserts the SIM card into his phone. For most modern models, settings are not needed in principle. The device receives them from the network and is saved in its profiles. For devices of previous generations, they can come in the form of a profile file. All you need to do is save them and reboot your device. Customize, and thus in the specified way, you can completely free of charge.
- If the configuration has not arrived in auto mode, you can request the settings yourself in several ways:
Some telephones do not want to receive the configuration in the automatic mode in any way. This is especially true of the gadgets that came to us from China. In this case, it will be useful to know the parameters of manual adjustment of MMS.
Change settings by hand
The manual settings for all telephones are absolutely identical:
All other parameters can be left blank. This is more than enough to make MMS work on your phone. After you have entered all these data, you need to make the profile active. For the changes to take effect, you must reboot the device.
Android
Most modern models of telephones run on the Android platform, including the popular Samsung. All these models pull settings from the network automatically. If this did not happen, then setting up MMS on Tele2 for Android is very easy: go to the data transfer settings and turn on mobile data. Next, you need to click "More" and find the APN - create a new access point. Configuration data can be useful for this.
You don't need to fill out anything else.
iOS
Let's figure out now how to set up MMS on iPhone. In principle, all models are identical in settings: 4 / 4S, 5 / 5S, 6 / 6S.
The first condition is that cellular data must be active in the network settings. If they are enabled, but sending does not occur, you need to fix it.
Next, go to "Cellular" - "Cellular data network" - here will open profiles for the Internet and MMS. As a rule, the profile itself will already be completed. Here, for example, data on the previous operator may remain. In this case, you need to fix:
Windows
As you know, some hardware manufacturers are based on Windows OS. For example, you can set up MMS on a Nokia phone, knowing some of the subtleties. In addition to the parameters that we considered for Android, here it is also necessary to set "IPv4" in the network type, and put a negative (NO) in the "Authentication" line. That's all that distinguishes Windows from other platforms.
In your personal account
The parameters for MMS can be found in your personal account. To do this, from any computer we go to the website of the personal account. In the section "Tariffs and services" there is an item "Phone settings". If you go here, then there you can choose your phone by the name and independently throw off the parameters, which then you will only have to save. This is very convenient if you continue to use gadgets, which in 5 years can be seen in mobile museums.

To enter the settings, you need to create a network profile and register the following items there:

Other items should be left blank. Then we press Menu and Save, after which we try to go online. Don't forget to activate data transfer. Is your smartphone running Android 3.0 or higher? Then the settings will be different. We pass along the following path: Menu - Settings - More - Mobile network - Access points (APN). We call the menu with a button or a virtual button in the corner of the screen (it all depends on the design of your smartphone) and select the New access point item. At the point we create, we write two single settings:

- APN - internet.tele2.ru (without http: //).
We save the settings and try to access the Internet, having previously activated the data transfer. Also, in the smartphone settings, you need to register automatic or forced operation in 3G networks. Don't want to bother with manual settings? Call 679 and order automatic settings, which will remain to be activated and saved.
How to enter Internet settings on Tele2 in iPhone
It all depends on the version of the operating system installed in the smartphone. If your iPhone is running iOS 7.x.x, you need to go along the following path: Settings - Cellular (here we turn on the Cellular data and Turn on 3G toggle switches) - Cellular data network. If the smartphone has iOS version lower than 7.x.x, then the path will be as follows: Settings - General - Network - Cellular data network. Next, you need to register the APN access point - internet.tele2.ru (without http: //), and leave the username and password blank. After that, you can try to launch a browser and open a website.

How to set up the Internet on 3G and 4G Tele2 modem
As a rule, Tele2 modems are supplied already configured. But if there are no settings for some reason, then they need to be registered manually- for this, a profile with an arbitrary name is created (for example, Tele2 Internet), the dial-up number * 99 # and the access point internet.tele2.ru are indicated, the username and password remain empty. We save the profile, set it to the "default" profile and try to establish a connection.
Despite the fact that we have long entered the era of the mobile Internet, some subscribers find it more convenient to use the MMS function on their phones to transfer audio or video files. Therefore, the topic of how to set up MMS on Tele2 remains relevant for the clients of the TV system. Subscribers can configure the reception of multimedia files in two ways: by manually entering the configuration or automatically. We have described each of the methods for connecting the service in all details.
How to set up MMS on Tele2 automatically
Often, the operator provides MMS autotuning to its customers immediately after activating the tariff plan. In standard situations, you don't have to do anything special to get the MMC settings. The subscriber only needs to insert the card into the assigned slot, the rest is a matter of technology.
If for some reason the MMS service was not installed on the phone automatically, you will have to download it yourself. We have described below how this can be done.
You can set up MMS on Tele2 yourself:
- through your Personal Account;
- call to technical support;
- self-entry of the network configuration.
The first two methods of setting up MMS are quite easy to get, and a few seconds after the application, a message will be sent to the mobile phone about the activation of the service on the number.
The third option for establishing a multimedia function involves a completely manual setting. That is, the subscriber will have to enter the MMS parameters for Tele2 manually.
It must be said that the input parameters for any cellular devices are identical, but the procedure itself will differ depending on the type of mobile gadget.
Let's take a closer look at each of the connection methods.
If the MMS service has not been activated on the mobile in automatic mode, you can order MMS settings by calling the operator to a single number 679.
After connecting, inform the manager about your desire to connect the service. To enable the function, you need to tell the company employee the brand of the cell phone and the SIM card number. After that, your application will be processed, and the necessary settings will be sent to your phone within five minutes.
You can also request MMS settings through your Personal Account. If you do not yet have your personal computer in the TV system, then registration will not take much of your time.
To log in to the system, go to the official Tele2 website and click the "Register" button in the appropriate section. After that, fill in the blank fields, come up with a password and login and press the confirm key.
The process of ordering a function itself is as follows:
1. Once in your personal account, go to the "Tariffs and options" category and select the "Phone settings" section.
2. Next, you will see empty columns in which you will need to enter the following information: the brand and type of the cellular device, the name of the option to be connected.
3. After filling in all the fields, save the data and press the "Send" button.
4. After sending the request, the MMC configuration parameters will be sent to your mobile.
Advice! Restart your cellular device for the option to work correctly.
As mentioned above, in some cases the MMS configuration parameters on Tele2 will have to be entered manually, for example, on gadgets such as the iPhone.
So, to get a multimedia service on your iPhone, do the following:
1. Go to the menu of your cellular device and go to the "Settings" category.
2. Next, select the "Mobile communications" item and put the slider in the "ON" state.
3. Next, go to the MMS section and enter the following data (you do not need to fill in the remaining blank lines):
- APN - mms.tele2.ru;
- MMSC - http://mmsc.tele2.ru;
- Proxy server - 193.12.40.65:8080.
4. Restart the gadget.
How to set up MMS on Android
For those who do not know how to set up MMS on Tele2 on "Android" with their own hands, we hasten to inform you that this is as easy to do as in the previous case.
So, if you are the happy owner of a smartphone or tablet running on the Android platform, then activate MMS according to the following algorithm:
- APN type - MMS;
- MMSC - http://mmsc.tele2.ru;
- APN address - mms.tele2.ru;
- Authentication - disabled;
- Port - 8080;
- Proxy server - 193.12.40.65.
MMS is an excellent Tele2 service for those who, when communicating, often share with their interlocutor various files of a photo and video format, as well as music. Moreover, sometimes this is the only way to send data. An important point is the fact that for a full-fledged exchange of messages of this type, you must be sure that you and your interlocutor have already connected MMS. Otherwise, the recipient will see only a notification about the pending message, which he can see only in a special gallery and the corresponding link. Therefore, we recommend that you first check the status of the service and find out how to activate it.
Of course, by activating a new Tele2 SIM card, you can be sure that within a couple of minutes you will receive a message with automatic settings, which you just have to activate. However, what if you are the owner of an old Sim, or some technical glitch has happened? Below you will find information that will help you in solving this issue.
Of course, you can connect MMS by contacting an operator for help or by visiting a communication salon. But this can be a rather lengthy process. Therefore, we offer you two options development of the situation.
Automatic connection
The Tele2 operator offers to connect the MMS service by ordering the sending of automatic settings to 679.
The second method requires the use of the "Personal Account". Having logged in to the service, you can easily leave a request to receive settings.
Manual setting
If for some reason the long-awaited message still does not come, there is only one thing to do - connect MMS on one's own. Do not be afraid, the procedure is not complicated at all and does not take much time. All you need to do is enter the correct information in the required section.
First of all, in the settings of your phone, find the item "Mobile networks" (possibly a different name depending on the brand), then select the desired access point to change. We present you all the information that you may need when filling out the fields:
- The name is a point that is not fundamental, it was created only so that you yourself do not get confused in the future.
- ММС server - mms.tele2.ru.
- Set the proxy server to "enabled" mode.
- IP - 193.12.40.65.
- Port - 8080 (if the setting is carried out in the phone since the "unkillable" Nokia, then enter 9201).
- The access point is mms.tele2.ru.
- Password and login - these fields should be left blank.
After entering the data, it is advisable to restart the phone to prevent any malfunctions from occurring.
Further, Tele2 recommends sending MMS of any content to anyone. This will register you in the system and protect you from getting messages into the Gallery. This means that now you can safely not only send, but also watch MMS.
How to find the received MMS?
In the event that the MMS was sent to you before you had time to set up the service, do not worry. For several days, the message will be stored on the Tele2 website in a special gallery... The link to the page with your message will certainly be indicated in the notification, which, among other things, includes the access password. After visiting the site and entering the requested information into the window, you will finally be able to view the message.
How to send MMS?
In order to send MMS from regular phones, you need to find the item of the same name in the messages section. Smartphone owners are in luck, the message will be automatically converted when attaching media files to it, or after exceeding the limit for the amount of text you are typing.
The cost of each message on most tariffs is 6 rubles... Sending more than a dozen MMS per evening is easier for you? Unfortunately, packages for this service are not provided by the operator. But there is good news as well. Tele2 invites you to send MMS from its official website absolutely free of charge. What actions need to be taken for this?
First, you need authorization. If you are already registered in the "Personal Account", you can use this account in this case. Next, fill in all the fields without errors (recipient number, message subject, etc.), attach the desired files and click "Send".
Please note that after the limit of free messages has been exhausted, you can send the next one only by paying 50 kopecks, which is much cheaper than normal data transfer.

The MMS function allows phone owners to exchange vivid pictures and photos, in addition, it is possible to send videos and melodies. But there are some restrictions that are imposed on sending MMS. They are contained in the size of the files. For older devices, this is certainly a problem, but newer gadgets automatically compress files to the required size.
To use mms messages, you need to set the parameters, which can be either manual or automatic. Without setting it will not be possible to send and receive mms. In addition, the mobile phone to which such a message will be sent must support such a connection. If such a connection is not supported, then the subscriber will receive only a link to mms, as well as an access code. You can open the message by going to the gallery from a PC.
Today, almost all telephones receive and send mms messages. But sometimes automatic tuning does not help, which means that you need to carry out manual adjustments. If manual configuration seems difficult, then you can use the help of specialists in tele2 communication salons. But using a connection using a similar method, it will cost some money.
In addition, there is a method to get the settings by calling tele2 operators, who will provide all the necessary information on the configuration. This method is bad because it can take quite a long time to wait for the answer from the tele2 operator. It is better to use the automatic settings, which you can get yourself.
Of course, any tele2 subscriber wants the phone to do the necessary autotuning when activating a SIM card. As a rule, such a procedure takes place, you just need to insert a SIM card and after a couple of minutes a message will be sent to the device with automatic settings. But it happens that messages of this nature do not come, then you need to order them. There are a couple of possible ways to do this:
- Dial 679 short number and place an order;
- Using the tele2 website and personal account, make an order of the necessary parameters.
It is worth noting that sometimes you need to restart the phone for the settings to take effect.
Setting up MMS messages on the Android platform, as well as on the iPhone
Almost all Android smartphones set the necessary parameters themselves, otherwise you should configure sending and receiving mms manually. To do this, you need to go to the phone menu and find the tab with access points, where you can create a new one using certain properties.
When the settings are registered, you should check the receipt and sending of mms. If nothing happens anyway, you need to restart the gadget.
