Using a PAYG dongle to do what you want to do to be honest you are wasting your time.
Your download speed will be down to a crawl and you will chomp through your allowance like there is no tomorrow!
You would be far better off getting a friend on an unlimited ADSL or cable connection to do it for you even if you pay him what your spending on your PAYG.
I mean what is the O2 rate £15 for 3 GB? He/she would sooner have that in their back pocket and the job will be done in a third or quarter of the time!
What do you think? Answer below!
