I had been using an ATT hotspot for internet out here at the ranch. It worked but only because of the cell booster and 30' tower I built.
Had Dish TV and upgraded to HD and got the internet thru Dish as a bundle.
Since then it's been way better than what I had before. Only issue is thunderstorms, much like with the Dish TV...
When the internet is blocked by thunderstorms I just turn on the hotspot and still have internet.
Livin' in the sticks.
