Get a load balancing/failover capable router (eg Linksys RV82) and two 
independent Internet accesses (eg ADSL + Satellite or ADSL + 3G). One of the 
two plans can be cheap and of the minimum speed you require to do what you 
have to do, because you only use it if your main plan goes temporarily belly 
up.

We used to have ADSL + 2-way satellite, then we scrapped the 2-way satellite 
because of cost and poor erformance, then regretted it when the ADSL outed 
for nearly a full day (exchange in town flooded, lots of equipment shorted 
out). 
After finding out that 3G does not depend on equipment in the local exchange 
(strange enough) now we have redundant connections again, what a relief!
