    Do this,
    Find buy Donedeal etc an android phone preferably with 4g (Old Galaxy S4 with a cracked screen etc)
    Run down to Three and pick up a ready to go sim and top it up with 20e.
    Now configure the Tethering or Mobile Network sharing / Portable Hotspot on the Phone. Connect it to your laptop and you are in business.
    You will have unlimited 3/4G Coverage on Three for 20 a month.

    Better than buying a dongle and having limits or worse a massive bill if on bill pay for over use.
