We live a few miles East of I-55 near Springfield and have wireless DSL 
through Springnet. (No cable or DSL service available.) They have access

points on the Springfield Hilton, one in the Chatham area, and either
have or 
are installing one in Mason City I believe. I've been happy with the
service 
and the connection since getting it about a year and a half ago. Ours is
a 
384 kB connection.

The equipment they use is from BreezeCom. There is a small antenna
that's 
rectangular, about 8 inches by 10 inches on the eve of the house and a
box 
inside with a 10/100 Ethernet connection. Unobtrusive. No muss, no fuss.

No connection to Springnet other than as a customer.

Tim
