Wow. That's expensive. The same provider (xplornet) for my dish, offers LOS 4g at half the price of my service. But the coverage stops 5km away. And there's a big ass hill between me and the tower.
I used to have WiMAX that I hooked to a parabolic antennae that I had to mount on the roof for additional gain. Was fine (and unmonitored) until our two telecoms dumped it. They tried to get me to switch to their 3G hub. $50/month 2 gig cap. $10/gig overage. I told them I got more than that with my phone. Sadly satellite ended up being my only option
