Hi,
Look at cell phone amplifiers. Wilson Electronics Sleek 4G is where I would start. You can attach it to a truckers antenna for even better coverage (and through put). The Sleek will work with the so called "mifi" devices.
Verizon has the best coverage, but try to have a "back up" carrier for areas where Verizon is weakest.
You will be taking a speed hit compared to the wired land line connections that may be in use at the moment.
Cradlepoint makes cellular routers where more than one cell phone modem can be attached. They can be configured in "fail over" mode or can combine the pipes to increase bandwidth when there is more than one carrier offering data where you are. There are a few of this style of router that attempt to connect you to the best bandwidth source. Wifi Ranger is one such device--but I have not used one.
Few of these units are designed for 12 volt use. Try to find units that do work that way to help eliminate RFI from inverters.
Let us know what solution you decide on.
