When buying a TV set-top box, users often face the following problem: the remote does not respond to the device. This means that the two devices are not synchronized with each other. This article will discuss the Rostelecom set-top box, as well as how to program the Rostelecom remote control to the TV.
Prefix "Rostelecom"
Today, this addition to the TV is very popular. It allows you to watch all the channels included in the service package, as well as access the Internet, where you can also watch movies on different portals.
Rostelecom has two types of set-top boxes: "Standard" and "Premium". The first implies a picture in HD quality, and the second allows you to save files to the built-in 500 gigabyte hard drive. You can buy such TV boxes not only in special offices, but also in digital equipment stores: DNS, MVideo, Eldorado and the like.
You can also connect wirelessly - the set-top box has a Wi-Fi module that allows you to synchronize two devices wirelessly.
When buying a Rostelecom set-top box, an agreement is made that will be needed to connect television. Immediately after connecting the box to the TV, an authorization window will appear, where you need to specify the login and password from the contract. After the correct input, all functions will become available to the user. In the settings, you can implement parental controls to ensure the safety of children when watching TV, the rejection of annoying ads and adjust the video quality.

There are two ways to synchronize between the remote control and the TV: automatic and independent.
Automatic method
In this version, the devices independently select each other's codes and connect. However, not all devices work this way, but it's still worth a try.
The first step is to turn on the set-top box and TV with remote control. On the last device, you need to hold down the OK and TV buttons at the same time until the indicator blinks twice. This means transitionto remote control mode. Now you need to dial the Rostelecom remote control code - 991, which will put the device into a TV search. At some intervals, by pressing the CH button, you need to find the box. This will be indicated by turning off the TV. Once found, be sure to press the OK button on the remote control to confirm pairing.
After the successful operation, the two devices will be synchronized and start working together. You can also set up the Rostelecom remote control on the TV in another way, if this one did not help.
Self-connection
The reason for the failure in the previous version may be an old TV model or the lack of a code in the Rostelecom remote control. This is solved by entering this code yourself. The algorithm of actions is as follows:
- Put the TV remote into control mode, as last time, by holding down the OK and TV buttons until the indicator blinks twice.
- Now you need to find the code of your box in the code table, which may be attached when purchasing the device. Or you can find it online.
- It remains to enter the numbers on the remote control and press OK.
After these steps, synchronization should occur. If this does not happen, then you can try resetting the remote to the default settings. This is done by entering the Rostelecom remote control code (977) in the control mode, the inclusion of which was described above. After the reset, you can try using the second method again.
Connection issues
From the complexities thatmay occur as a result of device synchronization, the following can be distinguished:
- The Rostelecom remote control does not change channels on the TV, does not adjust the sound and does not perform other actions.
- Coincidence of the TV code with the code of the set-top box "Rostelecom", which is why pairing does not occur.
- Other issues that affect connectivity.
The solution for all problems will be the same: reprogramming the console. How to flash the Rostelecom remote control on a TV? To do this, you need to hold down two buttons - Power and OK - and wait until the indicator blinks. Now you need to enter any number from the following: 3220, 3221, 3222, 3223, 3224. This way you can change the remote control program, and then try to connect the TV remote control to the TV again.
After successful connection, you need to check the operation of all buttons, as it may happen that some of them will not work.
If you can’t set up the Rostelecom remote control on your TV yourself, you can contact the company’s support service by phone or call a specialist at home.

- 991 - starts searching for a TV by code.
- 977 - resets all settings to factory settings.
Before entering these numbers, you need to turn on the control mode by delaying two buttons - OK and TV.
