| Well I done a bit of research into this. Now it don't matter what provider u use. We all end up at a single point of failure. Which is a Turkish Telecom server/router/base station with an IP address of 212.174.242. (a random number here between 1 and 255). Open a dos prompt and type in tracert yahoo.com. I bet u will see this number as one of your hops. Unless it's all astarisks/time out. Which means packet loss. Which means slow internet. I checked this out on extend, turkcell 3g and Telsim 3g. All use the same. I'm guessing all the providers are forced/have to use Turkish Telcom to get off the island. The reason why when u phone customer services up to complain (if you get through) they say it's not our fault it's Turkish Telecom. I think that these providers need to all club together and pressure TT into providing them and us with a more reliable single point of failure. This TT server always times out at peak times. Just try it out for yourself |

| Interesting. Good piece of research. Any light at the end of the tunnel for a decent broadband service at a reasonable price? |
