Why not try one of the fixed wireless providers? For the vast majority of people, they work well enough and are generally available in most locations. I'm talking about the T-Mobile Home Internet or the Verizon Home Internet or maybe AT&T Internet Air, even though that one is quite limited in scope.
Thanks. I have t-mobile as my phone carrier (through an MVNO) and the signal is pretty weak in here, so I think their fixedTha wireless might not work all that well unless I can arrange an outdoor antenna somehow. Also there is a 50gb limit, right? What's the point of super fast internet if you can use it up in no time? In practice I probably use way less than 50gb with my current DSL, but I'd like to be able to back up my home computers to a remote server, so that's a few TB of upload right there. It's something to consider though. I had been thinking of simply upgrading my phone plan to "unlimited" (35gb) and ditching my DSL and just tethering my phone. Maybe their fixed wireless amounts to that.
They have two plans. One is a internet light and it's for really rural areas that otherwise wouldn't qualify and it gives you 150 gigs and the other is unlimited.
