No, you shouldn't need to set anything special. However, if at home you have been connecting by WiFi to your BB router you should ensure that Mobile Data is set ON under your Connections in order to use it away from home.

If you have no mobile coverage (you've mentioned "have no signal at all"), then anything reliant on a network signal will fail - that means voice calls, text messages or mobile data. Many people confuse data congestion with "no signal", the two are different.

If mobile coverage is present, then mobile data should be available provided you have the facility enabled in your phone settings.
