Thanks everyone. I got the sanity check I needed. The telcos often have old microwave links to rural communities and in trying to outfit communities with modern broadband (which the telco hasn't done), there needs to be consideration for the link back to civilisation. Up existing microwave links can be upgraded to enough enough capacity for the community, then perhaps it is a acceptabvle solution at least in short/medium term. I know that Telus in the rockies has provided some communities with microwave links to get over mountains (new installs) in last couple of years. (but this has added costs since each tower needs to be powered, have access road or helicopter landing capability etc).
