wireless internet ? dongle forv Turkey
« on: July 14, 2010, 21:05:40 PM »
Can someone please advise me as have heard several different things! If I take my laptop to Turkey for internet use mainly and do not have a phone line do I purchase a dongle and if so do I buy it in the UK or Turkey? if bought in Turkey how much do I reasonably expect to pay and once the purchase has been made do I then expect to pay out further to top the dongle up depending on how much I use the internet?Answers gratefully received.

thanks for that Brian I have had a look and am no further forward all very confusing and seems rather expensive, guess I will just pay my 1.5 lira and head off to the internet cafes! Thanks again though.

If your laptop is wireless you will be able to pick up free internet in most bars now.

Buy an iPad with 3g..AWESOME!! :-)

or just get an iphone with a £5 a month Skype membership and you'll never look back. Defo.

Why would anyone need an ipad when they already have a wireless laptop?

What - to spend £500 or whatever on something you don't need 'cuz it's cool'

I bet your parents love you ;) Or are you really 40?

On that note I will add a link and lock this thread. Seems daft when all the info is here:
