I'm moving 42kms west of Hastings to a rural property very soon and am trying to find a wireless provider that can give me a decent anount of data (like 25GBs), but not necessarily the fastest speed. I also want to save money where possible too as i'm currently on Slingshot for $30 a month! New address has no landline. Has anyone got any good suggestions?

Thanks.

You could try airnet, They are Wifi so if you have line of sight you should be fine

cheers boby55 i'll give them a call tomorrow. i contacted them 2 1/2 ago and they were really expensive but maybe prices have gone down. they don't list their prices so i am a bit suspicious!

johnr, i'm moving more rural for a reason - i love it!!! and its the best place to raise a family!

Airnet says we're too far out :(
i know we can get farmside but you don't get much data allowance, except on the wireless plan where you have to sign your life away for 3 years! its pretty expensive too.
