<Insert Snazzy Title Here
We live on the edge of rural (less than 2 miles to the nearest (not that great) grocery store), BUT we live about 1/4 mile from the end of cable, and up the hill off the road by another 1/8 mile. There is NO way we are paying for cable to be run.
We tried satellite, and it stunk. DSL isn't an option, either, and I do too much surfing to do dialup.
We now use our sprint smart phones as hot spots, and it works very well. We have solid 3G signal here, and I'm able to surf and multitask pretty well. If you can figure out who has the best coverage, then you may be able to do pretty well. Just read the contracts carefully, and know if you have caps or limits. There are also other services out there like Cricket, too, do some homework, you might find something that works decently. It costs us only an additional $20.00 extra per month to have the hot spot on our phones. And the advantage is that my hot spot goes with me everywhere, so I can jump online almost anywhere, like airports where they try to make you pay for internet.
