Our adventures in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus continue....

December 02

- Couple of e-mail complaints about no news on the website. Sorry folks but the old connection problem reared its head again. Finally got so upset with absolutely no response from our service provider that I went down town and bought a 3G connection from Turkcell. Turkcell are one of the mobile phone providers here and this is a relatively new service from them here in TRNC. When we fitted the Sim card in, plugged in to one of the laptops, we were led easily through the set up procedure. Hey presto an internet connection with some reasonable speed. Have to say also that I bought this from one of the in town shops, Comaks Ltd, and their service was really good. I was not sure if our router would work in the house with this 3G thingy, so they sent their technician out to us late afternoon and he set it all up. You buy the 3G equipment for 114YTL and then pay 70YTL per month for 24 hour service connection.

Only four of us for the night out tonight, but enjoyable all the same as Stewart was back from UK so we were able to catch up on all his gen.
