I wonder if it's a similar problem to that with tethering on some phones? I guess the dongle acts in a tethering mode. On phones with the problem it can sometimes be fixed by adding DUN to the APN options.
Try googling 'tether dun required'

Checking on the vodafone forum, it could be the dongle is still locked to the vodafone network (even though it is fairly old). Have requested an unlock code from vodafone just to make sure.

Very likely, most dongles tend to be supplied licked

You can use a router manufactured by Netgear which are as affordable as Vodafone dongles. You can visit https://netgears.support/netgear-technical-support/
