Build your own. Two dishes, two network repeaters with dishes high
enough to see ea other. It's your network. They only need to know how
many computers. I found wireless to be way too slow.

I guess that isn't universal as no one I asked heard of it (me neither.)
Of course out here in the rural area of a free state where we don't
have inspections or permits for houses or towers (just septic systems)
I'm not surprised.

As I understand , there is a requirement to 'register' your 'cell
phone repeater', i.e. signal booster, with your cell phone carrier.

Note.... the first time I did something like this was to extend
broadband service from a biz location to a home about a 1/4 mile
away.... Simply used two 2.4 GHz wire dish type antennas and two
Linksys WAPs to connect the segments of the network.... cheap and dirty
but worked like a charm.... out in the country they could ONLY get
Satellite (business grade, 6 foot dish) so I had to find a way to break
the Ethernet wire limit...
I've done similar systems up to 19.7 miles with no issues... there is
equipment to make it happen... depends on your commitment...

I've done it TWO ways....
1) Use a directional antenna (cantenna... Verizon actually uses these.
I prefer a "better", larger solution) tuned to the frequency(ies) your
phone uses.) and use GPS coordinates of cell tower and your house to
determine azimuth to point... Elevation can be determined too... or
use
a peaking meter.
2) PREFERRED - Use DUAL antennas... One for transmit and one for
receive
(assuming your local device has the ability to separate antennae into
send/receive)
Granted this was primarily for wireless reception on the carriers
router... BUT, you can do the same...
You just need to get/mod a repeater device(s), et al. to bring the
signal in over the antennas and RE-brodcast it INSIDE your home.
That's what these commercial (overpriced) systems do with patch
antennas... You can do it better AND get a longer range
HIGHLY dependent on what interferes with the line of sight between you
and an appropriate cell tower...
