Meteor broadband abroad

Hi, Does anyone know if you can use a Meteor broadband dongle when you are abroad? Heading to Portugal in a few weeks and no broadband in the hotel.

Thanks. It would be a lot cheaper that way I'd say.

In theory you could. But at 99c a megabyte (the size of a typical webpage) I wouldn't. Stick to wifi hotspots. Or if your really need to get a local sim.
