As the sixth-largest cable provider in the U.S., Mediacom serves 7.5 million people across 21 states. The provider's service extends across Iowa, Alabama, and Missouri. While the provider has some availability in select rural areas, most of its coverage is in urban and suburban areas.
We think Mediacom's availability in rural areas makes it an ideal choice for many customers, but there are a few stipulations to consider when comparing its benefits.

Mediacom may not be the best cable provider out there, especially since they require contracts where many others do not, but if it's available in your area, we wouldn't say it's a bad option. The provider's cable speeds reach fiber-like levels, which isn't exactly easy to find, and no data caps certainly sweeten the deal.
Mediacom’s Xtream cable internet delivers impressive download speeds, but almost all of its plans come with strict monthly data allowances that can trigger overage fees. If you are a heavy streamer or gamer, negotiate for promotional data cap waivers during sign-up, or factor in the cost of upgrading to an unlimited data add-on.
We realize that internet plans with contracts are usually the norm for residential internet, and Mediacom is no different. But the contract terms can vary, with plans featuring one-, two-, or three-year contracts. Should you cancel your service before the end of your contract period, you may pay up to $120 for a one-year contract or up to $240 for a two- or three-year contract.
You may be willing to put up with locking into a contract to take advantage of Mediacom's data cap philosophy: unlimited. That's right, Mediacom doesn't impose data caps, so you won't need to worry about going over your limit and paying a hefty fee.
