If you are trying to connect to your 3G dongle from another system you will fail unless you have previously setup a facility with your Mobile Network Operator to enable the allocation of a fixed routable IP to your 3G dongle. Normally the Dongle gets an unroutable IP address via NAT and as these addresses are private they cannot be seen from the outside Internet.

You usually have to get you own APN (Access Point Name) and a leased line link into the MNO to make this work. It is not a cheap option.
