Today weâll talk about how to find out the traffic on Megafon. It is not at all difficult to obtain information regarding how much data was transmitted over a specific period of time.
BY
If you are interested in traffic on Megafon, how to watch it, the software will help you figure it out. It is created specifically for such purposes. Information of this kind can be especially valuable if the selected tariff package for working on the Internet involves payment for each received megabyte of traffic. We will need to configure the "Firewall" so that it allows you to work with the installed software. Also, all the actions related to applications described below must be performed on behalf of the administrator. This manual is ideal for users of the Windows operating system.
Instruction manual
We turn to a direct solution to the question of how to find out the traffic on Megafon. First of all, free download to your computer from trusted sources a program for working with relevant statistics. As such an application, we can use NetWorx. This solution is distributed in two versions: Installer and Portable. If you select the second option, the program can be launched without installation. If you download Installer, you will need to install the application on your computer. For convenience, download Portable.
First start
In order to find out the remaining traffic on Megafon, we create the NetWorx directory in any of the folders in the section where the user documents are located. If you intend to run the program on different computers in the future, we use a flash card. It is on it that we create the necessary folder. We extract all the files from the received program archive into a separate directory. We go into it and start the component networx.exe. We configure the necessary parameters for work during the first launch of the program. Choose the language in which the text will be displayed. We indicate the network adapter whose traffic estimation is necessary. If you need to get information about the operation of several devices, select the item called "All Connections". This option allows you to control all traffic. Click on the âFinishâ button and thereby confirm the saving of the performed actions.
Data view
In order to solve the question of how to find out traffic on Megafon, we pay attention to the system tray. This is where the NetWork program icon appears. Double-click on it with the left mouse button. The main application window opens, which contains all the statistics. We pass to the necessary tab for detailed information. Note that the NetWorx program displays traffic only after its launch. It does not support working in the background with standard settings. Therefore, if you do not immediately activate it when connecting to the Internet, some of the traffic may not be taken into account. The fact is that the update of some programs may start automatically, which will entail additional costs. For the above reasons, we recommend adding the specified application to autoload so that it starts collecting data from the moment the operating system starts. We also note that traffic can be clarified in the technical support service of Megafon.
Service Guide
Now let's look at how to find out the traffic on Megafon (more precisely, its remainder) using the official resources of the company. For this, the mobile operator has provided the Service Guide service. First of all, we go to this service and open the section âServices and tariffâ. This is where information about the amount of consumed as well as remaining megabytes of traffic is located. You can also see which Internet services are connected to your personal number. Using this tool, you can also solve the problem of how to increase traffic on Megafon by simply purchasing an additional service package.
USSD
Now letâs figure out how to find out traffic on Megafon using a special request. There are several USSD commands that will help us. We enter the request * 370 * 0 # and press the call button. In response, we receive information about the remaining traffic if the âInternet XSâ service is used (S, M, L, XL). If you need to find out about discounts on access to the Network currently provided, we use the command * 100 * 1 #. Now weâll look at how to get information about the balance of connected services and packages, including data on Internet traffic. For this, a request * 100 * 3 # is provided. By the way, in order to contact the operator by telephone, we just call the short free number 0500. If you wish, you can also contact the office of the company for the necessary information. In the latter case, you must bring a passport or other document with you that can verify your identity.
Limitations
Letâs now consider how to increase traffic on Megafon. This mobile operator provides âunlimitedâ access to the Internet. However, in fact, it can be called unlimited only conditionally. The fact is that after the monthly limit has been exhausted, the access speed drops to 64 Kbps. This is a fairly low rate.
Extend speed
Further, in practice, we will consider how to replenish traffic on Megafon. If the Internet speed drops sharply, you should first check the rest of the packet data using the instructions described above. If the limit is reached, it can be increased using a special service called âProlong Speedâ. The actions described below will be equally effective, regardless of the tariff plan used, as well as the communication device (4G modem, smartphone), if it works with the Megafon operator. First of all, we will tell you
how to increase the speed by a day. When using the Internet XS service, you can add 70 Mb of traffic for 19 rubles. To do this, use the above function. Extended traffic is used until the end of the day in which it was ordered. The next day, the traditional
subscription fee will be charged from the number
, that is, the usual tariff with a new portion of packet data will work. Now consider what to do when using other Internet offers.
We can go one of the following ways:
1. We send a USSD request in the following form: * 925 * 3 #.
2. We send an SMS message containing the number 1 in the text to special number 000105906.
3. We use the capabilities of the personal account "Megaphone".
After completing one of these steps, we will receive confirmation of the restoration of Internet access speed. Now consider the existing options for increasing traffic per month by 1 GB. For the described purpose, the operator provided 2 services - âInternet Extraâ and âProlong Speedâ. Both of them solve the task and are even paid at the same price. However, there are still some differences. The option "Internet Extra" is designed and designed specifically for users of tariff plans for the line "All inclusive". Obtaining an additional data package through the âProlong Speedâ service is suitable for owners of a service system with a monthly subscription fee. The validity of the service will last exactly 30 days, the countdown is from the moment of direct activation. So we figured out what traffic is on Megafon, how to see its performance, and also, if necessary, increase it.
