HughesNet seems to relax it's bandwidth cap between 2am and 7am, which is helpful, but still a great shift from what I'm used to at the current residence (15/2).No 3G cellphone service?3G at this location is marginal at best (stand on a hill and hold the phone up above your head.) That said, are there 3G radios that permit external antennas or are well suited to being sealed up in a weatherproof box and being placed on a pole/tower?
The little USB stick I just retired in favour of tethering (Huawei U160(?); I can dig up the model number if it's important) has a tiny antenna connection port. I've seen people on the train with a small flat antenna hooked up to these sorts of devices; I'd assume that there are big-ass antennas that are much more efficient and more suitable for permanent mounting somewhere useful. - Matt
