Title: internet access when in Turkey
Post by: heatheric on April 14, 2014, 17:48:50 PM
I would like some advice please about how best to access the internet for business and personal use whilst I am staying in my apartment on holiday.  I have a smart phone and laptop and think that if I purchase a 'dongle' which plugs into the laptop, I will have wireless access for both.  Am I right?  Where would I get a dongle? Can I have one which covers me for my 4 week holiday or will I need to have a contract?  What are the best deals available?  Where do I go to sign up?
I think that's all my questions - of course there may be more that I should ask so if there is anything I need to be aware of I'd be grateful. 

Many thanks for your help   :)

If you go to any bar or restaurant you will get free internet access.  Also, if you have a neighbour with WIFI they may be kind enough to let you use their connection.

If you need it in your apartment, then have a browse through the internet/mobile section on here - some really good info about dongles etc.

Thank you Bluwise - I'll try to move this question to that section.

Some apartment complexes now have free Wi Fi.  If you've not yet found a place to stay I'd check them out too
