WISP (wireless internet service provider) cheaper than stuff below. needs direct line of sight to a nearby tower. if you can get cable / isdn or like go with it (city folks), this is more for folks that don't have option to hook up to cable or like for internet. at a bit more expense per month. it is just as bad as satellite with rain and storms. due to it being line of sight / wireless connection. small box gets placed outside much like a tv dish or internet dish and points at a given tower. but should be 1/4 or smaller than a standard dish in size
satellite most likely next best thing, it seems satellite companies keep getting bought out by someone else. over the years. find something that is cheap, and then if need be call the company up and ask for a better package in a year or 2. most likely free install and cheaper by that time. if you are elder person / no day job, there are some plans out there with unlimited usage between a set time example midnight to 5 am, or say 6am to 9am. lets ya watch some videos, but still get cheaper package.
cell phone broad band, if you can even get cell phone internet connection.
--some cell phones you can hook directly to computer by cable or wireless for internet.
--there are wireless usb like options for cell phones. but again rather costly and no guarantee of a connection, make sure you can return unit and get a refund if it does not work for you. this is more likely an option for buisness on the go... LP tank delivery folks, lawn / land scaping folks, delivery folks. but folks can still use it in there home for internet possibly.
