You really want to weigh what wireless can offer as many of the local players
doing wireless lack the depth of network knowledge and are completely ignorant
of what it takes to run an RF network.  I'd independently verify your circuits
up-time if you decide to go with a wireless ISP.

The other sad part is the PtMP wireless technology is likely slower than an
LTE modem with external antenna.

The WISP's had a great time circa 2005 or so, but now that the licensed
players have surpassed what they can offer it's hard to justify the lower
availability of the typical WISP vs. cost.
