    if at all possible, it really is worth trying to find a friend with a dongle or stick who can lend it to you, or pop round with it just to test the signal. Very local conditions - such as walls, large buildings etc, can make a big difference to connection speeds. Your neighbour could get a great speed and you may not so it's really worth seeing if you can test out the signal.
  • DONT DONT DONT Pay for a dongle - Ive had crap service and even crapper speeds - get cable and if you cant get cable do without as you'll only be frustrated when you cant get on the internet and you've already paid for a dongle..

    Have a look around the internet and you'll find lots of people unhappy with their service - google 'mobile broadband problems' and see for yourself!!

    Hope this helps, the short answer to your question is.....NONE
