Yes, only Qtel offers, but watch-out for the price because it is per bytes. if you exceeds download volumes alloted for your subscription then you have to pay per bytes and if you are not careful you will pay much QR.

I cut-off my subscription 2 months ago because of the price and not really usefull if only for surfing. Its ok if for business purpose.

You can buy external wifi device if your laptop is not provided or buy a new laptop with already builtin wifi. You can go to hotspots like starbucks, corniche near sheraton etc. and freely connect.

Yes....it is there but huge expensive. You have to buy a modem from Qtel which cost QR. 900. After then you can subscribe mobile broadband. No unlimited use. Pay as you go. You have to buy 3GB usage slot minimum which is QR. 300. When you finish usage of 3GB then you have buy again if you wish to buy. If you go for voice chatting then 3GB will finish within 2/3 days maximum.

There is another option that you can check with www.thuraya.com

Subscribe for Qtel broadband package at a minimum of 100qr a month. You'll just have to attach that usb thing and you can already go wireless within doha with your laptop or desktop.
