You are in an area without a lot of options. One option you may have, however, is 5G cellular internet access via AT&T, Verizon, or T-Mobile. I can't speak of whether they have sufficient 5G coverage for your area or whether their services are reliable but it may be worth looking at if you reach loggerheads with Xfinity over their value to you.

I'm paying $50/month for 200mbps from Xfinity. I would be paying only $45 but I refuse to do auto-pay, and send payment when the bill comes instead.

I wouldn't mind paying less for 100mbps, but I was paying $50 for that, and they doubled my speed without charging more, so this is what I have til the contract expires. And then I'll see what specials they have, and threaten to cancel and return as a "new customer" to get those special deals anyway.
