My situation isn't that bad as 'Mad Ned' had experienced, as most people have 8 Mbps ADSL2+, but it cuts out during rain because underground cables get wet at the points they were cut and rewired back together, and it causes bad connections.
Meanwhile my connection handles rain and snow without problems, and ping is 1ms from my house to the router on the other side. The rest is out of my hands and handled by the uplink provider, but it is usually around 10ms in total.
Ironically after me putting up my antenna here, because LTE was oversubscribed to the point of falling down to 1-2 Mbps every evening and 100ms+ ping, the carrier put a whole base station on the roof of the same building that I have my PtP link antenna on. As expected, it did not improve the situation as the base station is very short range and cannot be reached from my village.
