Bob, if you can find a friendly neighbor with cable and within line-of-sight, you can get a business line, billed directly to you, connected to their tap. Then you radio the bandwidth to your place. The cost of the radios depends on how far and how fast. Look at the Ubiquiti AirMax CPE line. I've used the Lightbeam AC/Gen2 ($120/pair) and got 180 megabits/second throughput over 1/4 mile. They can do 400 Mbps or 3 miles, but not both.
