Get very mixed reception on my new Dell laptop plus O2 mobile broadband.
As this is always used in a fixed location ie my front rom, is there
such a thing as a fixed aerial or disk array, external or attic based
to boost signal strength?
Thanks

Depends on how clever the O2 dongle is and importantly whether it has an
aerial socket (some do have them hidden under the trim).

You will probably benefit from a short external stub if you can fit one.

You used to be able to get 900MHz band aerials with SMC connections.

Anything more clever will depend on base station direction power etc. But a
long cable run will not work well at say nearly 2GHz.
