I live in a very rural area (on a lake with lots of state forest surrounding me) where even to get DSL you need approval from Verizon.

I use Cradlepoint equipment to access the internet over LTE. I have wired the house but also have wireless access points too. I prioritize the traffic exiting so ensure that the really important stuff is first. Stuff related to my job comes before my son on YouTube or Facebook, etc. I also block a lot of outgoing traffic until certain hours of the day. (i.e no YouTube between 6am and 8pm).

On a side note, I have also been looking at tools I use (rsync, scp, etc) to see if there are ways to better help those on really limited connections.
