Can't get cable/dsl in my area. I currently have a wireless service at the office which works great because I have a clear view of the tower. I do not have a clear view of the tower at home without constructing a 60' tower. I do have a clear view of the satellite and can get a pretty strong cell signal. I would probably choose Hughesnet or Verizon/Altell wireless. I need some opinions, which is better?

If you have good cell phone signal at your house your aircard should work good. Me, personally I prefer the air card....but then I like to have the option to take mine with me where ever I go.
