Find a place with an always on connection (i.e. UEA) and then put a 802.11b base station with highpower antenna up on the roof, directed at your house, then put a base station and attenna up at home pointing at the other end. In Ipswich we have had over 13 miles of distance, complete with some intersting tricks to make it go round corners! The result is high speed net access at home! You can get upto 11MBps but 5.5Mbps is more realistic. And the best part is its completely legal and secure![1]
Now I like the sound of that! ;-)
Thanks for your advice, everyone. Much appreciated.
