Any quick suggestions for an
alternative to broadband as we cannot get BB here?

ISDN with a no time limit account (Surf time or something as was). I
used this for some years with Demon prior to Broadband and its
performance was very good. Effectively it is an always on service as
dial on demand connects in about 1-2 seconds. Data transfer rates
were, in practice, far better than modem speeds as ISDN only ever
runs at one rate unlike modems which do whatever they like.
