Some advice for players from Turkey who cannot connect to the poker game servers
From Turkey, you will not be able to access most of the poker gaming servers. But there is help, because it is possible to change your IP and thus circumvene this restriction. If for any kind of reason you want to assign a new outgoing IP adress to your computer, the easiest way to do that is a VPN. VPN stands for Virtual Private Network. For masking your own IP adress, you connect to the internet as usual, then you start the VPN connection, then connect to the website or to the server you want to go to. That website now sees an IP adress different from your own.
Let's take an example: You normally cannot get acces to a certain website or server from your country. There can be two reasons for this:
1. Maybe in your country the government has blocked access to this server, like some countries block certain websites because they do not want their people to see or read what that website shows.
2. The server or website does not allow people from a certain country to access their server, like some gambling servers do not allow access to players from countries where gambling is illegal.
So, by connecting to a VPN first and then connecting to the server, you are basically making that server believe that you are from a different country - you are allowed to connect.
Some VPNs are available for free, but they are horribly unreliable and slow don your internet connection considerably. Those solutions require you to download a software that you have to start, go through a very long login process, and they forcibly disconnect you after a certain amount of time, unless you use the paying version.
We have found one paying solution for you which is extremely reliable, does not slow you down and starts in approximately 3 seconds. Also, it takes only 30 seconds to install. It costs only $10 per month if you subscribe for a year, or $15 for a one month subscription. To find more information please click here. With VPNGates, you can choose between an IP adress from the US, the UK or Germany. Here's what the VPN can do for you:
* Assigns your computer a new IP address.
* Provides a layer of security and anonymity.
* Protect your Wireless connection (Wi-Fi connection).
* Prevents harassment caused by people tracking you by your IP address.
* Get a safe/encrypted connection between your computer and the Internet
* Bypass skype and other voip blocked in your area
* Bypass all blocked sites and access sites like youtube etc.
* High speed game vpn proxy
The initial setup is simple, and on the website you will get simple instructions for all operating systems. All you need to do is add one network connection to your computer.
Here's how it works for Win XP - this you only have to do once:
Go to "Control Panel" and choose "Network Connections"
Click on "Create New Network Connection"
In the "New Connection Wizard", click "Next", then activate "Connect to the network at my workplace" and click "Next"
Choose "Virtual Private Network connection", the click "Next"
In the next screen activate the box "Do not dial the initial connection", then click "Next".
In the box, insert the IP adress that VPNGates has sent you in an email after you have signed up, and then click "Next"
In the next box, activate "Do not use my smart card" and click "Next"
In the last screen, have an icon for the VPN created on your desktop.
When you click on that icon for the first time, you will be asked for the password (which has been sent to you in an email by VPNGates). Insert the password and activate the "Save Password" option, then connect.
Once the VPN is installed, you can start it by simply clicking the icon, and it will start and connect you within seconds. You can disconnect from the VPN by right-clicking on the icon for the connection in the task bar.
When you are connected to the VPN, you can use all devices using the internet. Please be advised that sending emails through an email client may sometimes not work while you are connected through the VPN. You may have to deactivate the VPN for that. Receiving emails will be possible without any problems.
