Our connection is terrible for livestreaming. There are two possible solutions I can think of:

1) limiting some large portion of our available upstream to a wired connection only. not sure this is possible (cc'ing the mesh crew),

2) we could use a portable hotspot. i believe AT&T has good 4G coverage at Omni, so I can pay a bit more money for my smartphone bill this month and we can use it as a hotspot.

1 Mbps x 60 seconds x 60 minutes x 3 hours = 10,800 / 8bits per byte = 1.3GB of data

Totally doable, though a backup or two would be great!

Wow, that's pretty awful.
Upstream is slow enough that streaming out isn't practical, unless it's
compressed audio only.
