I want to get internet access out to a remote building, which doesn't have (and won't ever get) any telephone or cable service. The building is almost exactly 2 km or 1.25 miles away from their house that has 50Mb cable service. The terrain is flat as both place are about 15ft above sea. The first ~500 meters is forest, then the remaining 1500 meters is open marsh/tidal creeks.
I'm thinking of doing the following:
Cable modem--cat6-->RT-AC56U--cat6-->PoE adapter--shielded Cat5e-->NanoBridge M5--2km wireless link--> NanoBridge M5--shielded Cat5e-->PoE adapter--cat6-->RT-AC56U-->computer
RT-AC56U

shielded Cat5e

NanoBridge M5

PoE adapter

While the building does have 3g verizon service(slow, 700Kb, and expensive, an additional $60/month for their needs) and 2g T-mobile(super slow and cheaper), these can't be the best way to do this.
Is there anything wrong with the above plan? Is there a better wireless bridge for competitive price to the M5? I would appreciate any help/advice on the above project.
