Comment on Staying for the week at an AirBnB in Rochester, MN. This is what I just found out I'm stuck with.

I do have the antenna pointed directly at the tower above the tree line.
Wave form antenna kit - $400 Spitz modem - $400 But my only alternative was starlink so the ROI on this setup was real fast compared. I also have a Verizon simcard as a hot fail over. But that Sim is data capped. I work from home in IT so I need the Internets.
Ive thought about side hustling my setup and selling it to my neighbors. But it would just congest my tower more… Lol

Often they serve areas where there’s basically no cell coverage. That’s why we used them when we did after trying a number of antennas and boosters. We’ve had neighbors put up 12m towers in conjunction with the WISP to get service.
