DSL is probably your best option.
My last DSL connection was faster than my current cable, it was through a local phone company in a small town offering VDSL.

Download speeds will be mediocre and upload speeds will be horrendous. But you'll have no coverage issues.
DSL will be best and cheapest solution
Satellite dish is still a terrible option. Not only are there terrible speeds but there are limits in how much you can download each day, and those limits are very low.
If you are only a few miles/blocks away from the nearest cable company line you can get an estimate for how much money you'd have to pay to get them to run a line to your house. This can be expensive, but if you're ballin it wont matter.

I have a satellite internet connection at home. Only option as DSL and cable are not available in my area. The download speed is around 17Mbps and upload is around 2Mbps. My only issue is with the data caps. I pay around $120.00 per month for 25GB of usage. This is currently their highest package. Once I hit the cap download speed is reduced to .5 Mbps. I would do anything for another option but I knew what I was in for when I decided to move to the sticks.
17Mbps isn't anything to scoff at but that data cap sucks.
Fiber>Cable>ADSL2+>Satellite>ADSL1 imo

I live in a rural area and it took me literally 10+ years before I could get anything other than dial up. Up until a year ago I was tethering with my phone, and now I have DSL. Be glad you can get DSL
The guy can get DSL, which is hardly fucking dial up, and you idiots are making suggestions like this ^^^
You can get 25mb DSL from the phone company in Vancouver. I've got 10mb DSL here, with 50ms pings, and I can download a movie in about 10 minutes.
There's absolutely nothing wrong with DSL.
