FM Instead of Wi-Fi

I would like to use a device such as a Pi or Arduino to connect to an Ethernet. I want to send/receive data wirelessly via digital FM instead of Wi-Fi to communicate with devices where the Wi-Fi/internet connection is unavailable, but still relatively close (suitable for low power FM where FCC regulations would not be an issue).

High speed data transfer such as for streaming video is not a must, but 100-200 kps would be ideal. This would, of course, vary depending on the strength of my signal.

Can I buy a board with Ethernet and simply I/O data to an FM transceiver? Any suggestions to help me get started would be great.
