Just my luck.....

Bums. I make positive changes in my life and it ends ups with a negative result. We moved to this lovely house in a quiet country lane where we wake up with sounds of nature, and no sounds of the stress of life. Good. And I have my new business head on, WA training here we come...... No, nope, never..... Internet doesnt exist here, not for watching videos anyway. (Not normal to take 49 mins to log onto Facebook right?) I am typing this on my ipad that is currently connected to my "personal hotspot" on my phone. And that doesn't even play videos. So.... How am I going to make this work? I had a day off today. I decided to go to work and sit in my office for 9 hours to connect to the free wifi to learn and progress. Yup. I spent 6 hrs getting pulled into work cause I was there. 3 hrs spent on my website. Mission un-accomplished. I am so focused and want to move forward towards my goal.... And then I lose the only thing I need to make this work. Internet. Tough times ahead for me I guess. Dear Life. Its time you stop pushing me now. I have had enough. And I WILL win in the end.

Don't allow the internet situation deter you from pursuing your dreams. You will win! When there is a will, there is a way.

I know just what you are talking about, Suzanne. My work often takes me to remote parts of Australia.
Unlike the US or most other civilized countries, the majority of cities in this country are within 50Km of the coast - and I'm talking 99.9%. So as soon as you start heading inland, most of the services start to disappear as well, including the Internet.
However, in an effort to keep people connected, the Aussie government rolled out different versions of a broadband plan to reach those in remote locations, which included upgrading the 3G wireless Broadband network, and satellite internet as a final solution.
Here in Australia, you can pay up to about $90 per Gb using Satellite modem - which is insane, though for a few years, that is what I had to pay because there was no other way for our kids to get access to School Of the Air, when I managed a remote Sheep Pastoral Property.
At that same time, a big Telco was rolling out high speed 3G wireless Broadband and I understand that on that same pastoral property, the new managers have setup a 35dB YAGI antenna that picks up the 3G network, from a tower over 70Km away..
Try finding a decent YAGI type antenna and point it to your nearest cell tower. So long as there are no mountains between the antenna and the cellular network tower, you should be able to get Wireless broadband.

where do you live that you can not get internet service I live way out in the sticks but I have satellite internet Hughes net gen 4 all the best

I live on an island! In Jersey, Channel Islands. We only have 3 internet providers on the island and where I live they dont cover broadband. I dont even get 3G on my phone at home. So frustrating!

Seek and you will find :)

Hi, there are times when you it's hard to understand and even accept what life offers you. This may well be a new beginning for you. God is good, there is a reason for you to be where you are. You'll know it one day. All the best.

First of all don't resist what is. I have found that when I hit a tough spot there is a gift in it. You are always being supported but when you resist and think that things are working against you then you can not get the gift. Believe me I did this a lot in my life and even though I always believed that I would make it in my own online business it did take me a lot to do so. But now I understand that this was because I was in so much resistance of the lack in my life and that is where I was living.

I hope that this helps. My advice is to just breathe and think of what you really want and go for it!

Well, what about dishnetwork or Hughesnet, anything over the air or maybe cable? I live in a rural area had t use dial up a while before DSL came here so I know what you are saying.

I have no clue what to offer, but where there is a will, there is a way. Maybe the hugh wifi antenna in a tall tree.

Thank you! Will see what I can figure out on this island!

Try looking for a hugh wifi antenna for your internet. I had one for my boat and it worked pretty well.

Thank you, I will have a look. We are so limited with options on this island...

Hang in there! Somehow it will work out.

Thank you Iris
