Are there any other internet providers along 30A in SRB / BMB/ Grayton, or does Mediacom hold all the cards????

Pretty sure 5G is gonna beat satellite and DSL in both transmission and delay. Honestly I think DSL and satellite could tie for worst. Satellite doesn't work on exceptionally cloudy/rainy days and DSL has gone out for us in a heavy thunder storm.

Could be a big problem in tourist areas and peak times of day.

It's literally always been the downside of living here.
Supposedly we're getting fiber to our homes once the county is done running lines.

Mediacom BUT... do not ue one of their modems. Go buy your own. Huge difference.
Also... I have Starlink, its a good option too.
