Just wait and see how many people do this when they learn they can get 50+ Mbps service via a wireless LAN at distances up to 30 miles (line of sight) and 5 miles (non line of sight). The standard (802.16) was just agreed upon, and equipment is starting to roll out. The only problem with wireless connections is the same as satellite service: Heavy rains and lightning can cause loss of signal.

After having a monitor fry when lightning hit nearby (VERY nearby), I don't have the computer on during a thunderstorm.

When will this happen and how would one access it ?
