ps topic on setting up television on a computer on the official forum.

Connect your home Beeline Internet and forget about the poor quality picture of Internet television.

Management and settings

The equipment set includes an Internet cable, switch, set-top box and connecting cords. Several connection schemes are available:

  • Internet and TV, when a set-top box and a computer are connected to the switch;
  • television + Internet via a router, in which a set-top box is connected to one port of the switch, and a Wi-Fi router is connected to the other port.

The set-top box is connected to the TV, if it is modern, using an HDMI cable, or so-called tulips, if it is old. In the first case, you need to plug the HDMI cable with one end into the output on the set-top box, and the other into the input on the TV. If tulips are used for connection, plug the colored cables on the set-top box and TV into the connectors of the corresponding color.

Now you can turn on the set-top box. If the connection is correct and the Internet is working, the firmware update will begin. When you start it for the first time, the set-top box will be ready for use in about 10–15 minutes.

All control and settings are done using the remote control. Through it you can switch channels, adjust the volume, set recording time, use social applications, also access the program guide, and you can even log into your personal account to connect additional packages. Models may vary, so please read the instructions included with your product carefully.

Correct connection setup

You must establish an Internet connection for a TV with the Smart TV function by using a special router.

Experts recommend connecting the router and the TV itself via a UTP-5e patch cord. If the TV has a function such as wi-fi, then you can perform all the necessary actions regarding setting up the Smart TV and router using it.

If you use a wireless connection to play a variety of video files, then in some situations interruptions may occur or the files will freeze.

Setting up using a router

In order to set up the Internet on your TV through a router, you need to perform certain steps in strict sequence. Press the “Menu” button on the remote control. Then select “Network” and then “Network Settings”. Then you should start the connection using a cable or the Wi-Fi function, depending on what type of connection is used. Next, click “Start” and the system automatically begins to search for the desired router. After it is detected, you should select it and click on the “Next” button. As a result, the router will request a special code in order to connect to the Internet. This code was selected when connecting the device at the very beginning of its use.

In order to set up the Internet on your TV through a router, you need to perform certain steps in strict sequence.

When the security code is entered, an Internet connection is established. After all these simple steps have been completed, you can start using the Beeline TV application and various other services that will be provided by SMART HUB.

Connecting additional service packages

Additional packages can be selected through your personal account. You can access it on the set-top box or through the website https://beeline.ru. In the first case, press the “Menu” button on the remote control panel, then go to your Personal Account - Channel packages - Manage packages/channels and select the name of the package.

Through the website, follow this link, go to the section Television - Service Management - Change channel package - Next. Select the required packages and click “Save”. Reboot the set-top box to activate the package.

How to connect

The company's subscribers have two ways to install Beeline television on Smart TV - using a set-top box or by connecting to a TV with Smart TV technology. Let's consider each of the options in more detail.

Using a set-top box

If you don’t have a TV with Smart technology at hand, you can connect to Beeline television using a set-top box. Take the following steps:

  1. Select the connection method - TV only, TV with Internet or All together. In the latter case, mobile communications serves as an additional service.
  2. Dial 8-800-70-08-000 and tell a Beeline employee your wishes regarding the chosen tariff. If you give preference only to television, it is enough to buy a set-top box. In case of receiving complex services, you must select one of the presented tariff plans.
  3. Decide on additional channel packages.
  4. Fill out an application and wait for a call from a company specialist to agree on the time and address for connecting the service. When you order Home Internet and Digital TV services, a specialist comes and helps you set up Beeline television on Smart TV for free.

After purchasing the set-top box, you need to connect it. For this:

  1. Connect your device to your TV using an HDMI cable or AV cable.
  2. Connect the set-top box to the router using an Ethernet cable via LAN.
  3. Supply power to the device from 220 V through the included power supply.
  4. Use the TV remote control to select the video input where the set-top box is connected.
  5. Set up an Internet connection via the router cable.
  6. Wait for the software update.

In the next step, the Beeline TV application for Smart TV must be activated. We'll look at how to do this in the next section. Here we will tell you how to log into the router.

On Smart TV

Now let's look at how to connect Beeline TV to a Smart TV. In such a situation, everything is simpler - you need to activate the service, connect the TV to the Internet via cable or WiFi, download the application and register.

The process of connecting Beeline TV is discussed above, so let’s focus on further steps:

  1. Connect the cable from your Internet provider to the WAN connector of the router.
  2. Connect the router to your laptop or computer using a LAN cable for setup.
  3. Open any browser and enter the following data in the URL bar - 192.168.1.1.
  4. Enter the quick setup section and enter your Wi-Fi login and password information.
  5. Save your data and restart your device.

Learn how to find out the WI FI password here.

Now take the TV remote control, go to the Network section (the name may differ depending on the model), go to settings and find the wireless network by name. After that, enter the password and wait for the connection. If the work is done correctly, Beeline television on Smart TV is almost ready for use.

The next step is to download and install the application via the Internet. Let's look at the instructions using the example of LGs released after 2020 and equipped with Smart technology:

  1. Connect your TV to the Internet.
  2. Click on the Recent/Home button.
  3. Login to LG Content Store.
  4. Find the application you need and download it.
  5. Launch and use the program.

If you have a Samsung, the application is available on TVs released from 2020 to 2020 with Tizen 2.4. The same principle applies here, but you need to go to the Samsung Smart TV section, and then open Samsung App, where you search for the application.

Mobile interactive remote control

In addition, you can use your mobile device to control the TV set-top box. To do this, you need to install the Beeline TV application from the Play Market or App Store. The application can show TV channels via the mobile Internet. A television program is available there. But the main thing for us is the ability to use the application as an interactive remote control. You can switch channels, increase or decrease the volume, record or pause the broadcast. The program has many other features.

Benefits of the service

Beeline mobile TV can be downloaded both from Google Play and the App Store.

This allows users of different devices to install this application. A special feature of mobile television from Beeline is the ability to watch your favorite TV channels at any time of the day or night, if you have a mobile gadget at hand. It makes absolutely no difference where a person is (in a cafe, in nature or anywhere else). If he is a Beeline user, he will always have his “pocket TV” with him. The operator has made sure that all subscribers of this mobile operator are not charged for traffic when using the service.

For Mobile TV, Beeline provides unlimited traffic.

This is a huge plus for all those who like to sit in front of the TV and watch their favorite TV channel or program. After all, often there is no such opportunity. Business, worries. And here television is always at hand, and without any restrictions. Unlimited mobile TV from Beeline is an application for mobile gadgets that will greatly simplify the life of all those who like to watch TV, but in reality there is simply not enough time for this.

Can I watch it on a computer?

The full set of channels can only be watched through a set-top box. However, you can watch several free public channels on Windows as well. We will need the VLC Player program. To find a list of channels, go to the Beeline forum using the link and search. To download you need to register. Next, launch VLC Player, press Ctrl+L and drag and drop the playlist file. Launch it and enjoy watching. By the way, the player is available not only for Windows, but also for other operating systems.

Possible problems and troubleshooting

The main problems and ways to solve them are presented in the table below:

The message “No signal” or just a dark screen appears.Reboot the device by unplugging the power cord for 5 seconds, then plugging it back in. Wait until the set-top box is fully loaded.
The channel shows the first 3-5 seconds. The image freezes and crumbles into squares. There is a red cross on the screen. There are problems with sound. Carefully check whether the Internet cable and the wire from the set-top box are intact. If there is no visible damage, reboot set-top box, switch and router by unplugging them from the socket for 5 seconds.
