Well,after using a dingle for the last six months or so we took the pluline and got a telephone line and broadband.

Very easy. Applied at the new Turk Telecom near the cinima on Wednesday.

Got wired up on Thursday.

WyFi Router fitted on Friday along with Phone.

Phone connected by 4 o'clock and internet connected by 6.

8 MB download, unlimited, around 55 TL per month. Brilliant.

Anyone need details then contact me.

Can i ask if its fast enough to watch streaming Tv, Uk tV access and the like do you know? I gave up on Turk Telecom internet nearly 2 years ago and got a Vinn dongle because I was paying around 80tl a month for phone and internet and the internet line was so slow, even though it was supposed to be the fastest available! The engineers said it was slow because of old cables. Anyway I took digiturk basic tv package at 22 tl which has now gone upto 30tl and is is fairly rubbish! So now paying 70tl a month for 4 gb on dongle and rubbish tv!
Ive been thinking of dumping Digiturk and going back to Turk telecom for uk tv on my computer, especially now ive moved house, maybe my phone lines will be better here

Thanks Steve, really useful info. Like Julesp it seems that internet service is very different street by street rather than by service provider. Does anyone have a good connection towards the top end of Baris Manco (around the Palms area)

We are behind Genpa, Calis and we can watch streaming TV normally without a problem. Of course this does vary on time of day etc, but generally it is fine.

I'm not sure if this is near enough, but I think TT have upgraded some of their cables, so you may find it is better now.

If you find someone near to you, ask them to perform a test to check the speed http://www.speedtest.net/
