Jayuya Municipio is better served than most rural counties. Fiber already reaches 90.7% of locations, so the first question is not what to buy but whether fiber has reached your road.
Everything below comes from the FCC's Broadband Data Collection, the filings providers are legally required to make about where they offer service. It describes the county; your own address can differ, and that is exactly why the technology mix matters.

What that means if you live here
The USDA classes Jayuya Municipio as a nonmetro county with an urban population of 5,000 to 20,000, adjacent to a metro area (continuum code 6).

The most widely available technology here is fiber, reaching 4,290 locations (90.7%); next is licensed fixed wireless at 66.7%.
Fiber already reaches 90.7% of the county (4,290 locations), which puts Jayuya Municipio well ahead of most rural America.
Licensed fixed wireless covers 66.7% of the county. It does not reach as far as fiber does here, but it reaches places fiber does not.
14 providers file coverage in Jayuya Municipio: 4 with fiber, 1 with cable, 3 with licensed fixed wireless.
Reported fiber coverage fell by 252 locations over twelve months. That normally means a provider corrected an earlier over-report, not that service was removed.
Served locations fell 1.12% year on year, usually a filing correction rather than a loss of service.
Fiber is further along here than in most of Puerto Rico, where the median county reaches 69.3%.

Your realistic options in Jayuya Municipio
Fiber
Fiber, if it has reached you
The best outcome by a distance: symmetric speed, low latency, no weather sensitivity, no data ceiling in practice.
Best for
Anyone whose address is inside a fiber build. Always check this first.
Watch out
Coverage stops abruptly at the edge of a build. Being a mile from fiber is the same as being fifty.
Fixed wireless
A local fixed-wireless provider
A regional operator beaming service from a tower or ridge to an antenna on your roof. In much of rural America this is the fastest thing available.
Best for
Counties where the FCC data shows large licensed fixed-wireless coverage, which this page tells you
Watch out
Needs line of sight. Quality varies enormously between operators; ask neighbours, not the sales page.
5G home internet
T-Mobile Home Internet
Home internet over T-Mobile’s cellular network. A gateway box you plug in yourself; no truck roll, no dish.
Best for
Rural addresses that still get a usable T-Mobile signal, often near a highway or a town
Watch out
Availability is decided address by address, not by town. Speed varies with how busy the local tower is.
