A) Move somewhere else. B) Become intimately familiar with what services you consume and see if you can get some sort of compression in the works. C) Organize your community to either reach out to an established ISP to have them upgrade your infrastructure, or try to organize a municipal effort to do the same. D) If C, prepare to be sued by an incumbent ISP if they have passed laws to restrict municipal network setup E) Also be prepared to keep a thumb on your legislative reps if they haven't, because it'll likely be popping up in some bill somewhere soon. F) Maybe do satellite.

Godspeed, friend.

This is an excellent answer. I know that mediacom services 98.5% of our area with 1gig fiber... yet somehow our community (neighborhood) doesn't have the option.
