I'm out in the country. Only internet hookup is dialup or DirectWay
(been there, done that; not recommended). Connection speed is 26.4. T1
is available for $600 month.

Does anyone have experience with wireless ISP, either as a customer,
provider, technician or designer? I'm interested in the 2 to 5 mile
variety; not hot spot. I'm on the prairie. A 100 foot tower would
cover a 10 mile radius.

Groups to query? Links? Equipment suppliers?

Which prairie are you on and who is offering the $600 T1? If you have
access at "A" and line of sight to "B", you can set up your own link using
very effective consumer grade equipment for around $200 - $400.

Are you interested in starting a WISP or just want to get the internet from
point A to point B? If you are near me, there is no other WISP currently in
operation, and a couple other minor requirements, I'll start one. If I can
get enough subscribers I'll give you a free account for as long as I have
them.
