It sounds like a free service for Tourism Harbour area only, next to castle. This looks like the politicians exaggeration of the actual service being provided. 5 Access points barely covers harbour itself which is mostly open air.

In order to cover the city of Kyrenia, you need approx 1000 Access Points, more or less one on each Electric/Telephone pole

Dont get me wrong, free internet is always good, and whoever is providing it in the area, is doing a good job, it just isnt what it says on the title.

Yeah, on the gündemkıbrıs website it also writes that - fingers crossed then, let's hope it happens

You can get WiFi in the square near to the car park (where all the open air cafes are).
Alternatively, some of the resturants at the harbour have a strong enough signal to use.

All very civilised.
