Default 3G 'out of coverage'

I have a voda 3G unit provided by the company, flies along in Dublin but nothing out here. Out here being between Mullingar - Kinnegad. Voda agree..no coverage. I was up on the roof doing the TV aerial when I had an idea and brought the laptop up + dongle. Ye Hah! 2.5Mb down 1Mb up. Quality of signal varies between 75-95% and there's no performance difference day or night.

Zut! Completely sacrificed mobility with the wee plastic beast in a waterproof case on 15 ft of screened 5 core cable attached to the TV aerial.

Its the only broadband we have out here. Eircom won't do the exchange so no DSL, O2 and 3 are really no signal.
