Can I connect to internet without wifi?

[supersue]

Hi, can someone help me? I will be going into hospital for several days and want to take my iPad 3 with me. If there is no wifi available, is there any other way I can connect to the Internet? My husband had a 3G dongle with a USB connector for his laptop, is there anything similar for iPad? There doesn't seem to be a USB port.
Many thanks.

Call the hospital and ask. If they don't maybe one of the new Internet wifi devices (I have the Verizon) otherwise you are out of luck. When I was in Kaiser locally they had it.

Unless your iPad has the 3G/4g option, the only way to connect to the internet is through wifi. There is no wired or USB dongle Internet connection that will work.
