Then get a piece of double sided tape and stick the dongle as high in the room as possible, preferably to a window. Experiment by moving it around a bit until you get the best signal.
Works for me anyway.

It comes with a connection app which tells me my speed / strength and usage etc... a bit too slow so I've now started to connect directly via the Network connections 1.3G tab within "connect to a network" on Vista - which is much quicker.
Am I circumventing something? Will I be charged extra or something for not using their 3 app?
The difference in speed is significant...
AFAIK 3 still charge a flat rate per month for fair usage and at meg chunks over that (check your contract for specifics) regardless of which speed you connect at. So you wont get charged extra for using a higher speed service.
I have to say that I have used 3 extensively and found them to provide excellent service wherever I happen to be.
