Sky king, we keep TWO land line for our businesses - one for me, one for DH. The cell coverage here at the house is terrible. We only recently got rid of the fax,line and went to E-faxing. DH has one client who insists on faxing lab reports. For rural, satellite internet is really big around here but it's not terribly reliable or fast.

When we were house hinting two years ago, almost very house we liked was on satellite, which was a deal breaker. DH needs reliable high speed internet for his work.
