If you can get mobile phone reception, you can get 3G wireless broadband. You may consider putting an antenna on your rooftop, pointing towards the mobile phone tower, to give you much better reception. Make sure the antenna is correct for the frequency, which may be 850Mhz, 900Mhz, 1800Mhz, 1900Mhz or 2100 Mhz. Check with your provider.

I don't know what country you're in, but in the UK there;s only really three options: - cable, which I'm sure you won't have - ADSL, which means you have to be within a few km of a telephone exchange (enabled for ADSL, but most are). The further away you are the slower it gets. Try putting your new postcode or farm phone number into the service page of any ISP. - 3G mobile, but I be surprised if you get a 3G signal in most rural areas. There is such a thing as internet via satellite but it is very expensive.<br><b>References : </b><br> I’m afraid I think you’re going to be disappointed.
