just curious, do wireless modems connect to the same towers as that of cell phones or do they communicate with satellite? I ask this because there is a wireless internet provider here but you can only get access if you are within a mile of his tower and have a clear line of sight for the dish that you get. I'm trying to find something wireless that doesn't need a clear line of sight to get internet access.
