Just what is a Dongle? Dongles are also known as USB (Universal Serial Bus) modems because they plug into the USB (Universal Serial Bus) drive of your computer. Instead of waiting until you find a free wireless network that you can get onto, or using your home broadband connection, a dongle lets you take your internet connection with you, wherever you go. It actually has a SIM card inside it & uses a 3G data connection to get you online. So wherever 3 has a mobile signal, you'll be able to get internet. Some people choose to keep a dongle in their bag when they travel, just in case they can't connect to any local free wireless networks. You might have seen people using them on the train or at airports. They mean you can stay on top of what's happening in the office while you're on the move. Other people like to use a dongle as backup internet connection at home, so if their land line is cut off, or if they have problems with their regular broadband connection, they can still access the internet, check their emails or talk on Skype.
