Here is a link to an earlier thread on the subject of WiFis:

http://www.calis-beach.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=54711.msg359458#msg359458

There is a lot of very useful information on this thread and I understand that a WiFi purchased in the UK will not work in Turkey whereas a Turkcell wiFi will work in the UK.  Loz wrote quite extensively on the subject and I bought a 3 store Data Sim yesterday, it works fine.

Try a proper Turkcell shop as opposed to an agent, I believe they are cheaper there.

Thanks Marggie. Looks like that could be my answer. :-)

Kev 2 things, firstly you may find the mifi you buy will not work in Turkey (like I did)
secondly you will need to register it.
I bought a Turkcell mifi for 125TL from the Turkcell shop by the otogar. I had the sim already.
