Not that I'll argue it isn't costly, but how else can you rail in up to 100mbps in an afternoon..? I would imagine this type of inquiry comes in after it has been established that there is little to no connectivity.

I suggested VSAT. Probably the quickest and cheapest.

Aaron,
Cross-posting this over to the WISPA list to see if there are any Wireless ISPs over there that can help you.

I just had a client drop an interesting requirement on me.
They are on Andros Island (Bahamas) for about a year. I'm working on getting an exact address from the adminisphere above me, but all I've been told so far is they are 'near the naval base'.
They just called and said "We need internet access yesterday".
None of the people on-site are technical, and all their data is accessed via RDP on a server in the United States.
Having never been there, I have no idea if it's like downtown San Francisco where the internet grows on trees, or if it's like the Sahara desert which might require dragging your own fiber in on camelback...
Does anyone have pointers on who to talk to or how I can get them internet access?
