I would like to run the cable my self and want the cable buried next to my house, can anyone tell me what type of cable i need to use? And where to get it?
 
A flooded Direct burial cable with solid copper center conducter would be the "correct" cable. Where well I don't know what you have for local sources but you can always GOOGLE for internet sources.
 
I would use 3ghz RG6 cable. Most common and can get it in bulk for a nice price.

Tip: Run plastic PVC around the coax in the ground to help protect it. This will make it easier if in the future you want to run new cable too.
 
Flooded RG6 (dual, and if you are mounting to a pole you need to run 4 lines) 60% aluminum braid, solid copper center conductor, swept tested to 3GHz (if it lists that)
