My house does not have cable, fiber, or dsl so the only way i would be able to get home internet would have to be wireless but i dont know what a good wireless and not overpriced internet service is
 
Are you looking for WISP service, or cellular hotspot, or either?

PCsforpeople offers a budget Sprint-based hotspot service, if you qualify.

Which ever is better and faster because right now I use a mobile hotspot that gets like .6 down and .8 up! Like the is super slow and my ping is 120-200 on Texas and Montreal servers like that is crazy bad! Most people I know get like 50 on those servers
 
ATT / TMobile all have the worst tether plans.
You will easily get nailed with heavy overages.

Did you try contacting your cable company and asking if service is available?

The last solution i can think of is probably satellite.
But that is also a expensive solution.

The problem is when the house was built they only installed 1 dsl cable for a phone that's it!
And that company is very expensive!

I am interested in a wisp or broadband if they are any good so if someone knows a good one tell me
 
Check with Verizon. I do not get any cable or satelite where I live either. Not even the single DSL line you have. Verizon gave me (For a subscription fee) a modem that is Cellular based. Works pretty good. Almost as fast as my cell phone connection.
 
WISP probably requires line of sight even if it's available in your neighborhood. and an outdoor CPE up high on the roof like the ones from TP-Link.
