The hotspot is likely your best bet. I doubt she does a lot of downloading or streaming. Finding a carrier that has a good signal in the area is your hardest challenge. Maybe look at coverage maps and where the cell towers are to see if your signal is good.
We improved ours by putting in 165 Aruba APs, replacing the Xirrus units that were there.

Well, not ours any more as we didn't get along and I work elsewhere, but the point remains. Some will do the right thing.

If not a hot spot, does she have her own phone line? DSL?
