Assuming wired Internet isn't available where you are, then the choice is between some kind of parabolic reflector behind a conventional antenna, or a Yagi-type if you can find one for sale for the right frequency band where you are.

They are available, and up on a pole pointing in the right direction will do a good job.

Height is important. Radio range in miles is approx 4/3 times square root of height in feet. Adjust for hills etc in the way.
