Zona,
There is a company in Topeka that is offering the same type of high-speed internet connection that I use. I have had Cable and DSL in the past, and the service I have now is just as good, if not better. Severe weather has never effected my service.
The company you need to contact is TSC Communications at 800-447-2348.
They will need to run a test to see if their tower signal can reach your location.
Here is a link to an article that was in the Topeka Capital-Journal on October 9, 2005. http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qn4179/is_20051009/ai_n15666255
I would ask them if they would wave the installation fee if you commit to a two-year contract. I pay $59.95 per month for my service.

Most computer techs suggest 15 seconds of no power then just plug it in. If connected to a router, you should do that next to clear it out as well.
One other thing is that you can go to dslreports.com and run bandwidth tests to see how fast your connection is and there are also some tools to help you make sure your connection is tweaked at it's best potential. These are pretty harmless so you don't need to get a geek to help you out.
