Thinking of replacing DSL with a 5ghz ptp and a solar powered cabinet with LTE radio. Anyone do something like this before? What should I buy?

In the house on my S10, I get ~10 to 15 mbps. DSL is 25. We have a farm in a valley, but if you go to the top of one of the pastures, I can get 100 mbps down on my Samsung S10. It is NLOS, but I was curious how fast it would be with directional antenna.

I was planning on using a metal pole mounted to a wooden fence post as the “tower”. SXT-6 US for the LTE dish with mimosa c5x and 16db antenna. I don’t really know what to do for solar, batteries, or a switch.

What do you reccomend?

Its about 500m. I think I will go with nanobeam 5ac as it works on UISP Design center. Don’t need all the speed of 60ghz.
