In your defense, there should be internet in your area but the government dropped the ball and let Comcast scam them.

My favorite part is that bout 5 miles down the highway they have fibre optic. They've been "installing" it for about 4 or 5 years now. They've had the spool just sitting outside for half that time.

5 miles is doable with a wirless link. it of course depends on other factors, like having visibility, but it is not impossible.
