It's actually quite a bit less expensive to do it with the PS-2s than
with wire, once you figure the ditch, the pipe (or direct-burial
cable), the surge protection on both ends, and the labor.

That's a good point, John. You can get a two pair outdoor mm fiber
cable for about $1 a feet in any length. No need for pipes, but should
be placed under ground frost to extend lifetime. In addition you need
two fiber converters, $100 each, and a couple of weekends of work. You
will end up with a silution where your day to day concern is what to
use your bandwidth for, and not whether or not it's working, If you
can avoid wireless, do!
