No good for ipads and phones though

Sorted.  Only downside is that you need a windows based machine to run the hotspot software.

Download Connectify from here the lite version is time limited but the pro version is only $12.

Connect the Long-Range WiFi Network Adapter

Follow the simple on screen instructions and Robert is now your mothers brother.

Tested on phones, kindles and tablets.

Is there a limit on data for that Paul?
That is just for the Wifi I already had a Sim which is 13 tl for up to 1GB for 1 week. There is also 4GB 1 week (about 30TL) and 4 GB 4 week options.

I used to use Connectify Pro with a dongle but it was a pain in the ar5e having to switch the laptop on and then connect up. I just leave the Wifi on all the time and take a tablet away now instead of a Laptop.

$49 for a week PER DEVICE here in the back ar$e of nowhere in Mexico. Except thanks to Uncle John and Connectify I've paid one $49 (no other wifi so no choice) and currently have 6 devices connected to Scunnernet.

Yes, it definitely works!

Using an Internet session on the Vinn Wifi, enter 192.168.1.1 and you will access the settings (can set to English) user name and password is admin.. Then if you go to sms send a text of "Kalan" to 2222 and within a minute you will get a text which states data remaining and expiry date.

Last year we got a box put on the roof connected to a small gadget in the living room.  It cost £60.00 we pay 35 TL per month, for WIFI connection, but only when we are in are place. So, Ipad. Computer and we can hook up the computer to the T.V. with Film On and watch British T.V. 
Fingers crossed we are really pleased with it and we get good WiFI connection.   The company that fitted it just turn off the connection when we go away and put it back on when we are there.  Our neighbours were so impressed, they got it in too.
