Do you mean a dongle that connects to the 4G phone network?

You just buy one andf top it up as you would with your phone on PAYG.

Also if you have an iphone you can use it as a hotspot.

Most smart phones have a hot spot so you can tether another device. If you've not got enough data on your phone contract just buy extra for the month and tether your laptop.
