Is there an alternative to broadband cable yet?

[vaylon]

I am looking to see if there is a alternative to dsl or broadband cable.

I currently have a 1mb sec cable connection with a 25 GB limit each month. My average download speed is about 77kb a sec. Yes it sucks!

I live in a rural area so I don't have a lot of choices.

Some of my neighbors have air cards from the telephone companies, but they pay around 99 a month and have a 5 gb limit. Not sure what their speeds are.

Do any of the wireless companies offer decent priced air cards with about 25 gb a month limits?

I checked on the satellite setup, but that seems like a joke from user reviews.

Thanks.

One of my co-workers pay $30 a month for high speed wireless. The company finds someone in the area, get a big signal to their house and they serve as a wireless hotspot. That person makes contracts with nearby homeowners and install the antenna to receive the signal.

He states he gets 3Mbps down with no monthly limit.

Verizon offers Fios. But it may not be available in your area.
