I don’t know about that. They do have “wifi hot spot” devices using a cellular network. Hopefully they have a good data plan but it will work.

The kind of service that I'm talking about will install an antenna at a customer's residence--an antenna that will communicate with a provider's relay antenna on a tower (line of sight) up to about 10 miles away and farther with a small dish behind the antenna.

I don't know what kind of bandwidth they top out at, but some on the Rockies will get residential connections up to about 15 Mbps. They start at about $40 per month for about 5 Mbps, but wireless Internet providers in some cities probably do it for less than that. Not a bad deal with phone included for $10 or thereabouts.
