Been looking at new Internet ideas and looking at Nethouse Wireless options? Currently have via a dish linked to TV package and not very reliable? Any thoughts or comments?

As you are in Bahceli get yourself a Turkcell dongle,constant 3-6meg download speeds.

The dongles work as well if not better than any 'dish' system we have had in Esentepe. Always are times when it is nigh on impossible getting a good connection here, but I would assume that if I cannot get a signal with the dongle, then I wouldn't also be getting a signal with a dish?

flutterby, totally different technology. If it's from a dish it's bounced off a satellite. With a dongle it's dependant on 3g mobile phone coverage, if a lot of people are all using their phones or dongles at the same time you will find it hard to get a signal.

But a 3g dongle is not reliable for a tv package as its limited to what you can download....plus prices are crazy!

So whats the best connection method, if you want to use 2 computers in same package?

Currently on 3G dongle and signal is very weak 0.21.

Well any internet company would be able to offer you that service. You would need a router to divide the connection between 2 computers.



However if you wish to stick witht he 3g dongle you can also get 3g routers which again will divide the connection for 2 computers, however if you're getting low signal its not really worth it!

I'm with nethouse but get a fairly unpredictable connection. Some days I get my full 2mbit bandwidth other days I get no connection at all or it will be on and off all the time (like the last couple of days). Can't comment on other providers becuase I've not used them. My friend says Nethouse is the best of a bad bunch, he's tried them all.

Hi HNComputers, so what do you suggest, We are in Esentepe area, currently pay 60 TL per month for 3G, how can we upgrade and how much will it cost for installation and monthly or annual package.

Would you advise a person with the option of having a ADSL connection to go for wireless ?

May be so.. but if you have someone who can speak TR ....



Wouldn't you agree that a fixed line ADSL connection is superior to a wireless one.... ? !



No many folk have that 'luxury' and if *I* had *I'd* go for fixed over Wireless ...ANYDAY...

HNComputers,

"Nethouses' coverage only extend upto Kucuk Erenkoy at the moment.."

is it true? we are in Kucukerenkoy but non of providers managed to connect a wireless to our restaurant. Always no signal or poor signal here.

Message 8, you don't necessarily need a router if your PC's are in reasonably close proximity and both have wireless capability, just set them up as an "ad hoc" network and they will be fine.



Here in Bahceli I have my two, one a Laptop and one an old PC with an add-in wireless card running with a single Turkcell 3G card in the PC and they both share the internet without any problems.

This simply means that the internet sharing pc HAS to be on at all times... A router would be more 'green' ;)

Re message 21



No, mmmmmm that remark is rubbish.

What it means that two of us can use the internet simultaneously when we need, or one uses the host machine as required without the un-necessary expense of a router, that is being "green".



There is no green issue here, just a typical nonsensical, nit picking 44 forum comment which is why I stopped posting here a year ago. - back to the other boards for another year of information exchange without the hard core smart asses who must have a say whether they engage their brain first or not, usually not.

No Yenibob,disagreement is ok, but I don't like it when people have to make a comment intended to show how smart they think are and shoot from the hip without thinking it through.

A child can work out that:

one PC + router, or two PC's + router is a less green combination than using

one Pc, no router or Two PC's, no router. My solution is green because there is no router to make / buy / run.

Perhaps if one was in the IT game and selling routers or making money from consultancy, the last thing you want to hear is that small (ad hoc) networks can be set up by the average user without one of your expensive toys being a necessary purchase.

I am very suspicious of anything posted on this forum, too many vested interests from pool maintainers/chemical suppliers/Internet providers/restaurants and their cliques to take anything at face value. - but that's for another thread.

In answer to beachsidebum, message 8, look up "ad hoc" networks on microsoft.com for details of how it's done

The router consumes about a 10th of the 'juice' of a PC and Monitor .. and is more efficient in networking terms...





Always, great to have a reasoned debate with you ....

MMMMMM,

Marky I really do apologise, I am completely failing to show you why I am right. I am sorry, this is not a debate, I am correcting your statement. Please let me try again in simpler terms. Please let me know if we still do not have a meeting of minds.

You are assuming I believe that two PC's must be running to get the routing done?

And according to your assumption that therefore the second PC/monitor costs more to run than a router?

You don't need a router, and you don't need a second PC, so only the consumption footprint of the PC you are using is applicable. So,, one PC with a Turkcell dongle does the job of a router quite adequately for one user.

Should you want to use a second PC, just enable the wireless card, and ergo, you have two PC operating ad-hoc and no router.So whichever way you cut it, this is a lower cost and greener solution.

Re efficiency, not applicable to an average users home network, the overhead is negligible, my own network is the proof.
