I have wireless like that, I'm paying for 30/10 but get closer to 40. When they first installed it I pulled 70-80 before they set my limit though, so the technology can definitely do fast enough.

They told me they have 5ghz and 2.4ghz receivers. If you're absolutely clear, they use the 5 but if there's some trees or minor stuff they use the 2.4. Anything solid is a no-go of course.

Our town is small though and the equipment is on a church bell tower, so most people in the current service area are fine. All houses and mom and pop stuff, nothing tall enough to block line of sight to the church tower.

WISP (for wireless ISP) seems to be the common name for them.
