Wireless Broadband
Discussion
I live about 10-15 minutes drive outside of Canterbury. Any internet we get down the phoneline is awful - regularly (~20mins) drops.
We have wireless internet from a company called VFast ( http://www.vfast.co.uk/). It is brilliant. Easily as good as the 15Mb fibre connection I had from Virgin and actually better/more reliable than the 15Mb fibre connection a friend has from Sky in the middle of Canterbury. Speed is strong, easily good enough to stream iPlayer, footie, etc.
We also have a very small publishing firm in an office in the grounds that rely on the internet and they rarely have any problems with it (generally caused by their own router than the service itself). VFast have another company called Orbital who do "leased line wireless connections" but between the house and the office we've never felt the need for the extra expense.

We are in a semi rural location and the BT internet is only about 1.5mb. It went down once for 2 days and nearly destroyed us. It's also too slow for us to work with so we went to a company called Fibre Wifi. We pay for a dedicated uncontested line in with them and get 6mb. It's expensive though...£350 a month! But our entire system is web based so the internet is very important to us.
A couple of our clients use these guys http://www.countybroadband.co.uk/
I do not know County Broadband myself, or have any direct experience of them, but people I have spoken to that use them always seem happy with their connectivity.
Another possible option is ADSL bonding.
We are a provider and reseller of Viprinet equipment, which does proper bonding for increased capacity rather than load balanced bonding. i.e. 2 x 1.5mb ADSL = 3mb of throughput.
It can bond ADSL lines and 3g or 4g connections too and the bigger device can take 6 connections in total. Perhaps with 4 x ADSL and 2 x 3g/4g you could get your connection to quite a high throughput.
