Yota coverage area. Yota coverage area in the regions of the Russian Federation Coverage map of Yota, MTS, Megafon and Tele2 in Russia

What is good about the Yota operator is its unlimited Internet and flexible tariffs for services. It can be called a leader in its segment, since there are simply no similar offers from other participants in the cellular market. In order to get unlimited access to the network, you need to purchase a Yota 4G modem or any other subscriber device. A wide coverage area will provide the subscriber with communication almost anywhere in the city. Let's talk about the operator's capabilities in more detail.

4G connection and operator coverage area

First, we need to talk about Yota’s 4G coverage area. It completely coincides with the coverage of MegaFon, since the infrastructure of this operator is used to operate the network. In a word, where MegaFon works, Yota will also work. You can view the full coverage area on the operator’s website, where an interactive map is published, or on our website.

The map displays the following data:

  • 2G coverage area - there is no fast Internet here, since second-generation networks are more designed for voice transmission. But in general, the Internet will work, albeit slowly;
  • 3G coverage area – within the coverage area of ​​third generation network base stations, you can enjoy high-speed data transfer. In terms of its coverage, it is small; communications exist mainly in the territories of populated areas and at a short distance from them;
  • 4G coverage area - the coverage of fourth generation networks is the most modest; they operate only in large populated areas.

Residents of Moscow and nearby settlements are lucky - here 4G from Yota is available almost everywhere. When traveling around Russia, you can count on high-quality communications in almost any locality. In any case, 3G is available almost everywhere, while the situation with 4G from Yota is somewhat worse. The operator works in the Band 7 frequency range. If your device does not work in this band, then you will not be able to enjoy high-speed LTE. This situation often occurs when using devices designed to operate in other countries.

When purchasing mobile phones, tablets and modems officially imported into Russia, you can count on the fact that 4G will work correctly in them.

Any device is suitable for working with Yota 4G LTE networks. The operator itself sells exclusively modems and routers produced under its own brand.

The following types of devices are available for sale:

  • The simplest USB modems;
  • USB modems with built-in Wi-Fi access point;
  • Yota pocket routers running on batteries;
  • Stationary routers Yota;
  • Multifunctional Internet centers.

You can also purchase a separate SIM card for modems and routers. As for mobile phones, any handsets that support LTE Band 7 are suitable for working in Yota networks.

Please note SIM card incompatibility for individual devices. For example, if we insert a SIM card for a smartphone into a modem, then access to communication services will be limited in speed. This is done in order to stop the use of SIM cards with cheap Internet for mobile phones in modems and routers, where Internet access is much more expensive. The same applies to SIM cards for tablet computers.

Additional restrictions are on Internet distribution (if not provided for by the tariff) and on the use of torrents.

Yota tariff for smartphones

We have already talked about the Yota 4G coverage area and the subscriber devices used. Now we need to talk about tariffs. First, let's look at the tariff for smartphones. There is only one, but it is flexible and customizable:

  • 200 minutes of calls within Russia and 2 GB of traffic – the subscription fee is 370 rubles/month;
  • 500 minutes of calls within Russia and 6 GB of traffic – the monthly fee is 450 rubles/month;
  • 800 minutes and 12 GB of traffic – subscription fee is 780 rubles/month;
  • 2000 minutes and 15 GB of traffic – the subscription fee will be 1250 rubles/month;
  • 5000 minutes and 30 GB of traffic – costs 2850 rubles/month.

Many other combinations are available.

For another 50 rubles/month you can connect to unlimited SMS, and for 15-60 rubles/month you can connect to unlimited applications that allow you to get unlimited access to social networks and instant messengers. In domestic Russian roaming, the cost of services does not change. But if you spend more than 30 days in another region, the subscription fee will change in accordance with special roaming rates - they are 20-30 percent more expensive).

If the package of minutes is exhausted, you can connect an additional package - 100 minutes of communication will cost you 180 rubles. If the package is not needed, then the cost per minute will be 2.5 rubles. As for SMS and MMS, they will cost 2.5 rubles/piece.

Yota tariff for tablets

Tablet computers are not typically used for voice communication or sending messages. Therefore, the Yota tariff for tablets does not include any additional packages - it only has high-speed unlimited internet. The tariff plan is activated for a day, a month or a year. More details about tariffs:

  • “Day” - a day of access to high-speed Internet Yota 4G will cost 50 rubles. An excellent solution for those who need rare access to the network (for example, only on weekends);
  • “Month” - payment for this period is 590 rubles, the possibility of automatic renewal of the package is provided;
  • “Year” is the most economical access for 4,500 rubles. Suitable for those who need access to the Yota 4G Internet on an ongoing basis.

If you suddenly want to make a call, a minute of voice communication will cost 3.9 rubles/min. The cost of sending SMS or MMS is 3.9 rubles/piece.

To manage tariffs on smartphones and tablets, a special Yota mobile application is used, available for Android and iOS devices.

Yota tariff for modems

We come to the most interesting part - the tariff plan for modems and routers. After all, many subscribers use Yota 4G high-speed Internet only on computers. However, using a router with Internet distribution, you can access the network from any device. The tariff plan for routers and modems is very flexible– it provides a solid gradation in speed:

  • 64 kbit/sec – completely free access, albeit low-speed;
  • 512 kbit/sec – Yota 4G internet at this speed will cost you only 400 rubles/month;
  • 640 kbit/sec – the subscription fee for this channel will be 450 rubles/month;
  • 768 kbit/sec – for access to the network at this speed you need to pay 500 rubles/month;
  • 896 kbit/sec – the next gradation of speed for 550 rubles/month;
  • 1 Mbit is a quite comfortable speed for surfing, the subscription fee is 600 rubles/month;
  • 1.3 Mbit/sec – subscription fee will be 650 rubles/month;
  • 1.7 Mbit/sec – network access for 700 rubles/month;
  • 2.1 Mbit/sec – subscription fee is 750 rubles/month;
  • 3.1 Mbit/sec – good speed for surfing and watching videos for 800 rubles/month;
  • 4.1 Mbit/sec – monthly fee is 850 rubles/month;

  • 6.4 Mbit/sec – excellent speed for 1000 rubles/month;
  • 7.1 Mbit/sec – fast Internet Yota 4G for 1050 rubles/month;
  • 7.8 Mbit/sec – the subscription fee for the channel will be 1100 rubles/month;
  • 8.5 Mbit/sec – powerful channel for 1150 rubles/month;
  • 9.2 Mbit/sec – quick access to network resources for 1,200 rubles/month;
  • 10 Mbit/sec – such a channel will cost 1250 rubles/month;
  • 12 Mbit/sec – high speed access to Yota 4G for 1300 rubles/month;
  • 15 Mbit/sec – high-speed Internet for 1350 rubles/month;
  • The maximum available speed is 1400 rubles/month.

Please note that there are no traffic restrictions here. But the declared speed may differ from the real one for various reasons. At any minute you can set one speed or another - the subscription fee will be recalculated automatically.

In addition, Yota 4G Internet can be connected for 2 hours for 50 rubles or for 24 hours for 150 rubles. Annual tariffs are also provided - 5,400 rubles/year at a speed of 5 Mbit/sec, 6,900 rubles/year for 10 Mbit/sec and 9,000 rubles/year for maximum speed - the discount is quite significant.

Yota, MTS, Megafon and Tele2 cards can be superimposed on each other, comparing the availability of the network in the right place in the selected area.

Why is there no network zone

If the map has loaded in response to your request, but you don’t see Yota coverage, there may be several reasons for this:

Small or large map scale does not allow loading the layer.

Solution— use the mouse wheel to ensure comfortable operation of the map and complete loading of coverage images.

You are outside the network coverage area. Using the mouse wheel again and moving around the map, you can determine the nearest or possible signal areas of various mobile Internet operators.

There is coverage but the Internet does not work

If you are on the network and in an area of ​​reliable signal reception, then check:

Your account balance
- equipment performance
-signal parameters on your device

To clarify and determine if the network or device is not working, we recommend contacting the official support service.

How to buy Yota

In order to become the owner of a Yota SIM card and get fast, modern Internet in Moscow and the Moscow region on your device, you must first familiarize yourself with the availability of Yota network coverage in your region.
To do this, it is recommended that you first visit the provider’s official website where there is the latest information about all cities covered and locations where connections to the Yota network are sold.

It is worth remembering that Yota is part of the Megafon group of companies and in many places it works on the principle of a virtual operator - using the facilities of other providers with whom a cooperation agreement has been concluded. Therefore, in almost all places where there is coverage of any mobile operator in Russia, the Yota network will work.
In order not to guess about network coverage, but to know for sure, we have created a new 4G network coverage map. There are several zones with towers of operators (MTS, Megafon, Tele2) operating in Russia.

You can choose the tariff of your city in or on the official website Yota.ru

Yota is a “newbie” among mobile operators, founded four years ago. In the first year of its existence, Yota's subscriber base exceeded one million users. In 2018, as in the past, the company provides services under its own brand, but uses the cellular network and switches of another operator.

Advantages of the new Yota network

The new network has several advantages that distinguish it from other operators. Let's look at the most significant advantages of the Iota network:

  • unlimited Internet (100%) - there are no restrictions on traffic and speed, even if a certain limit is reached. You can watch many videos and films in good quality from your smartphone or tablet;
  • free calls within the network - you can now call loved ones and friends without any restrictions;
  • free messages - you can send SMS without restrictions throughout Russia;
  • lack of federal roaming - now you can call from city to city completely free of charge, you just need to connect a package with minutes;
  • minutes for calls to numbers of other operators - you choose the number of minutes yourself.

Thanks to its features, the young Iota network is of interest to travelers, Internet surfers, businessmen with frequent business trips, and simply all advanced people.

Network coverage

The coverage area of ​​the young operator extends to almost all regions of Russia. But not all residents of our country can use the services of the Yota network today. Therefore, for the convenience of customers, this mobile operator offers to use the Iota network card. Using this map you can find out the working coverage area of ​​the Internet provider Yota in a particular area.

Fans of modern smartphones and Internet users know that 3G differs from 4G in the way it transmits data. In the Iota network, packet data and voice transmission in 3G standards is excellent. The same cannot be said about the 4G coverage area; the fourth generation of wireless communications currently has a small coverage area. But Yota representatives promise to solve this problem soon.

Problems may also arise with purchasing a SIM card from a young operator. Today you can buy a SIM card only in certain areas of our country. To find out in which localities in Russia you can buy a SIM card, you need to visit the operator’s website.

Popularity of the Iota network map

Already today, the mobile coverage area extends throughout the entire territory of our country from west to east. Residents of 65 major cities can use the network services without any problems. As for small towns, the best wireless Internet is only in the Moscow and Leningrad regions.

To find out whether your city is in the Internet distribution zone, you need to go to the operator’s official website. In a special section you can see Yota coverage areas. The city you select will immediately appear on Yandex.Map. Each city has its own color, which corresponds to the quality of network coverage.

The Yota operator has the following coverage maps:

  • voice transmission and 2G - communication and Internet services in the 2G standard;
  • Internet 3G - high-speed Internet in the 3G standard;
  • 4G Internet - high-speed LTE Internet;
  • Possible coverage area - wireless network technologies are not yet available.

Where does Yota coverage work best?

The young operator cannot yet guarantee 100% quality communication. Despite the fact that all base stations operate in normal mode, the quality of communication may vary dramatically. No one keeps official statistics on the operation of the new network; it can already be seen that in St. Petersburg wireless communications work even better than in Moscow.

We kindly ask residents of the following cities: Moscow, St. Petersburg, Rostov, Vladimir, Kursk, Nizhny Novgorod, Astrakhan, Orenburg, Krasnoyarsk, Pyatigorsk, Tyumen, Ufa, Khabarovsk, Bryansk, Chelyabinsk, Krasnodar and Sochi, as well as other cities where it works new network operator Yota, leave a comment about the quality of communication in your region. Together we will improve the quality of the network.

For your convenience, we offer a Yota network map, with which you can see Yota LTE coverage areas in a given area.

The Internet is an important component of the life of a modern person. Its quality is assessed based on several components - speed, stability, coverage. When choosing an operator, the entire range of characteristics is taken into account.

Yota is one of the popular domestic providers, whose coverage area is becoming wider every day. The company announced the start of work in the telecommunications services market not so long ago. A few years later, the 2G, 3G, 4G (LTE) networks of this operator cover almost the entire populated part of the country. Yota subscribers can move around Russian regions without fear of being left without communication.

This article analyzes one of the elements of Yota’s communication quality – coverage area. Attention is paid to geographical distribution, regions with excellent quality are listed and those in which the operator is not well represented, and also talks about how to find out about the presence of networks in a specific point of the country.

The most complete and up-to-date information about the coverage area is presented on the official website of ETA. To study it, you need to select the “Coverage Map” section in the top menu. The interactive scheme works on the basis of Yandex.Maps with the ability to use all the accompanying tools - selecting a display mode, zooming in and out, and searching. The maps contain accurate information about where Yota towers are already operating or are just being built.

For convenience, the map is divided into zones. In addition, when you select your home region at the top of the page, it automatically centers on it.

On the interactive diagram you can view information about where a particular communication standard is supported, and the reception level is also marked. It is colored in different shades depending on the supported standard in specific territories. Thus, the coverage areas of this operator are highlighted in orange, where voice communications and 2G format are provided, blue – with 3G Internet, and blue – 4G. It is characteristic that the transitions between the regions practically merge.

The company's mission is to make mobile communications and the Internet from ETA accessible anywhere in the country; it is in this direction that the main work is being carried out.

Signal quality in different regions of Russia

Upon closer examination of the interactive map, we can conclude that the north and south are partially covered by communications. Thus, the coverage areas of this operator in 4G format include Krasnodar, Murmansk, Rostov-on-Don, St. Petersburg, Samara, Sochi. There are more and more places where it is possible to provide customers with access to the Internet in 4G quality from Eta.

Magadan, Vorkuta, Naryan-Mar and other large cities of the Far East with their surrounding areas belong to areas of reliable voice communication and broadband WSDMA Internet. As for the central regions, south, west and northwestern territories, there are only rare dots marking places where there is no 2G connection. The 3G standard has slightly less coverage, and LTE towers are located in almost all regional centers in the central, southern and western districts.

Voice and Internet coverage from Iota in Russia is becoming increasingly widespread. Anyone who wants to check the strength of the connection is given the opportunity to take a free test drive of the equipment. Speed ​​can be tested if the region is within the coverage area of ​​the standard of interest - 3G or 4G (LTE). There may be speed limits in some communities. This is due to uneven terrain, proximity to more powerful sources of radio signals, and distance from base towers.

Cities where Iota's LTE network has excellent reception

This information can be obtained on the company’s official website in the appropriate section. The diagram shows places that have already been tested for the presence and strength of the signal. The presented geographic coverage map provides information about the presence of communications in 2G, 3G and LTE standards.

Thanks to the systematic activities of the company, the number of base stations is constantly growing and, accordingly, the coverage of new territories with modern communication standards. Mobility is an important condition for both doing business and having a good rest, including outdoors. The presence of a signal is important not only within populated areas. Anyone who, for example, loves fishing outside the city also wants to stay in touch so as not to limit himself in communication, be able to receive up-to-date information about the weather or find out on the forums the latest information about the best biting places.

There are more and more settlements with excellent signals every day. If information appears on the website about the opening of a new Yota sales point, it means that there is already an opportunity to be online there. The lucky ones include residents of two capitals, resort cities, Kursk, Pyatigorsk, Nizhny Novgorod, Rostov-on-Don, Orenburg, Astrakhan and many others. This list is updated daily.

What towers does Yota use?

Any business requires start-up capital. If he is not there, then the support of a friend will come in handy. Since organizing mobile communications requires expensive equipment, new providers most often use the capabilities of companies that have been operating in this service market for a long time. The largest domestic operator Megafon has become an experienced and reliable “friend” for Eta. Yota is its subsidiary company.

Studying the area of ​​reliable reception, it is easy to notice that the towers of the Yota operator on the map are located in the same place as those of MegaFon. Therefore, Iota’s coverage of the territory is very decent.

Essentially Yota is a virtual operator. But, using the equipment of its closest partner, it also has its own base stations, so it is impossible to equate the territorial coverage of these two operators.

The main focus of MegaFon's subsidiary is unlimited Internet. It is the development of this service that receives the greatest attention from the young company, which tracks the preferences of modern users. The scope of Eta's towers to support industry-leading standards is continually expanding.

Regions where there is no 4G Yota coverage

A person wants to be free from wires that tie him to landline operators. Many people are waiting for high-speed technology to come to their area. In conditions of fierce competition, all major providers are rushing to cover as many territories as possible.

Although the network operator Yota is a recent participant in this race, it can already be considered one of the leaders of the domestic telecommunications market. The territory of Russia is huge. It requires a lot of effort and investment from everyone who wants to be the first in expanding the 4G network coverage area across the vast country.

Poor development of the new communication standard from Yota is still observed in the Far Eastern part of the Russian Federation. There are objective difficulties with expanding reliable reception zones in the Far North and most of the Siberian region. In the south and center of the country there are also places where there is poor coverage, especially in small towns and urban villages.

When will Eta appear in my region?

Knowing about the ambitious plans of the young telecom operator, we can say that if it is not currently represented in a certain region, this situation will soon change. The company's management has repeatedly announced its plans to fully cover the country's territory with 3G and 4G standards. The time is already approaching when Yota LTE reception areas will not differ in size and will blend in color on the map of Russia not only with the 3G, but also with the 2G standard. This will be achieved by increasing the number and power of transmitting towers and expanding the radio frequency range.

Yota plans for 4G network

Considering that broadband access to the network is becoming more and more in demand every day, the Iota service segment is increasing, and the operator’s coverage areas with the 4G standard are expanding. The company plans to fully master the LTE radio frequency range that meets the needs of target consumers. It is also possible to switch to innovative technologies if they appear in the future.

How to Determine Whether LTE Will Work

To make sure that there is an area of ​​acceptable 4G coverage in the region of interest, you need to refer to the interactive map functionality on the provider’s official website. If the terrain is displayed in orange, blue or blue, it means that the operator supports the 2G, 3G or 4G standard, respectively.

The next stage is checking the quality of the service provided. This can be done in one of two ways:

  • order a test drive;
  • rent a modem.

In the first case, you need to purchase a modem. Upon purchase, an agreement will be concluded and a Personal Account will be created, in which you can edit technical settings and control financial flows. The duration of the test period directly depends on the selected speed. During the trial period, you can decide on the connection conditions and select a package with the desired ratio of its cost and service parameters.

On average, the test is available within seven days, provided the device is kept in salable condition. When returning, you must have your receipt and passport with you.

  • equipment will not be accepted back without presenting a receipt;
  • For non-residents of the Russian Federation, refunds are made only by bank transfer;
  • It is better to clarify all test drive conditions in advance at the contact center;
  • A one-time trial period is permitted.

In the second case, when renting a modem, the equipment is provided for temporary use to the client in accordance with the price list valid at the time of conclusion of the contract.

Yota company provides high-speed Internet of a new standard in excellent quality, with a wide coverage radius and on favorable terms.

Unlimited wireless LTE Internet is confidently winning the sympathy of consumers, gradually displacing outdated landline (wired) connections. Convenient and inexpensive - it ideally meets the requirements of modern users, offering unlimited opportunities for work and entertainment on a virtual network. The wireless Internet coverage area is constantly expanding, covering more and more areas of Moscow and the Moscow region. The growth of Yota's service area is more than obvious. Already today, coverage extends to almost the entire territory of the Russian capital, as well as some nearby settlements.

Expanding the coverage area of ​​the Yota network is a natural and expected phenomenon: today LTE has many fans and every year there are more and more of them, since the advantages of wireless, high-speed Internet such as mobility, versatility, convenience and accessibility are more than obvious.

If when using a Yota modem , in some areas the coverage area will be insufficient, and the signal will be weak, then any subscriber can use additional equipment - amplifying antennas. With the combined use of a modem/router and a directional antenna, the coverage area of ​​the Yota network is significantly expanded, and the signal is completely stabilized even at a significant distance from base stations. Today, the Yota Internet coverage map in Moscow still has “blind” areas, but if you have a powerful antenna you can forget about them.

Yota network coverage map - a convenient informant for clients and potential users

Before connecting LTE, it is advisable for each user to become familiar with the location of base stations on the Yota map. For the convenience of our customers, in this section we have placed a map of Yota’s coverage area, with which you can easily track the range of the network and determine the signal level in the areas that are most important to you.

The subscriber should remember that the map of the Yota network coverage area was created by computer modeling, therefore, it cannot take into account the features of the local terrain and the radio environment at the point of equipment connection. If you cannot determine from the map whether your home/office is within the provider’s service area, then contact our consultants and find out whether the Yota network coverage extends to the address you are interested in.
