March 2012--Lately More Lag in Second Life 3D Game, Higher Pings or Packet loss at times, but overall the connection i guess is stable, maybe just Secondlife Servers and at&t Routing, Still using Motorola 2210 modem, and Netgear WGR614V10 Router, Can Try the at&t 2wire device if anyone thinks it will help the issue i'm having lately.
Overall support has been good though--instant replies from DSL Direct, and phone support was helpful last time i called in
Windows 7 64bit is main PC-hard wired 2 Laptops on the connection off and on Windows phone 7-wiress Ipod touch-wireless DIrectv whole home service--wired 2 Desktop PC's wireless
Modem is currently filtered, as phone support said i needed it filtered since this is a line share line, but phone isn't hooked up on that jack in there--so if i don't really need it, then i'll just plug modem in directly to jack like before
Fall 2011
Still Going Strong, Called into get my at&t data connect device cancelled recently, while speaking to the nice rep in Billing, got offered the following
$8.00 off Home Phone part of Combined bill Elite Internet For $19.95 for a whole year as well
Both of those discounts for a year
So Still a Nice Happy Camper here with at&t dsl
Our at&t directv is working well as well
Spring of 2011 Additonal
Now Have Directv On Demand as well, and Movies are Quickly Downloaded to our Receiver, So far still under cap amount according to our Router, so still very happy
And No i'm not an at&t employee, I'm just a Happy at&t yahoo dsl user!
Service is Running Great, 100 Percent uptime, No lag, Modem and Router working Great, Upcoming Caps shouldn't be a problem, as i'm monitoring with our Netgear Router-Not even close to go over with 6 PC's on the network and Nintendo Wii, but we don't stream netflix or anything like that
Keep up the Great Work and Service At&t. Occasonal Lag with Second Life program, but i blame that more on the Second life servers than at&t, as i don't experience any problems in other online games!!
August 26th 2010: Excellent uptime, fantasic speed, Motorola 2210 still going well, and same router as last review going very well. did replace 2wires power supply in case i ever need a backup
Support: times i had to call in no problems, and at&t direct support excellent, and a wonderful resource
Keep up the Great Work at&T!!
February 18th 2010: Service Speed is Excellent, Online Gaming Fantasic, Nothing so far beats the Price of at&t yahoo dsl, Support has been excellent with us, only had to call in a few times, and issue is usually resolved quickly. As i stated in all my previous reviews--a Very Satisified At&t yahoo dsl customer. Forgot to mention in my September Review Update--buying a new motorola 2210 Modem at Walmart was simple and hookup and configuration of it was also very simple after our 2wires power supply died.(Someday may replace that though)
But So Far My older Netgear WRG614V6 is working very well with the service...
Keep up the Good work at&t employees and keep the same reliable service we've come to expect
If Bandwidth caps ever come to at&t i'll provide stay with them anyways, just cut down on some of my downloading, unless it affects programs i use day in and day out, example like SecondLife(which uses alot of bandwidth), Sam Broadcaster, Skype, Online Radio and such
September 2nd 2009: Service Still Going Great, Any Issues i've had Been Solved Quickly Thru either at&t internet phone support or thru at&t direct here in the dslreports forum. These days I Dj every day in Second Life, Skype at times, Yahoo Messenger, Online gaming, All in All as i said in last review--Very Satisfied with At&t High Speed DSL service.
Will Keep on using it for the future, and when uverse is available, may consider switching to that, but then again may not be as reliable as this has been for us
February 6th 2009: Service Still Rock Solid, 2wire modem still working Good, Had some Minor service outages, but those were resolved in a timely fashion, from my last review still do alot of internet stuff, voice over ip with yahoo messenger, skype sometimes, Online game, Dj in a Computer program occasionally, All in all Great Service.
Could still use more speed though, but for the price cannot beat the realiability with at&t yahoo dsl
For 5 PC's Excellent Service
Mcafee From at&t yahoo--excellent, no problems with it so far, currently have it installed on 2 of the 5 Pc's, but will be installing on the laptop later on this evening
4/29/2008: Bought 2wire DSL modem/router in December 2007, to replace old DSL modem and Netgear Router that died after a power outage. Service is excellent still, like the 2wire modem alot, online gaming doesn't boot as much with the new 2wire modem, Still do all the same stuff i used to with the old router.
Hopefully more Internet speed comes in the future, but for now great service, great speed, low pings for online gaming, video watching, voice over ip. Do more with at&t yahoo dsl than i ever did with my Wideopenwst Cable internet, mind you when i had that service, top speed i think was 4.0mbps download and 512 or 384 upload, 6mb and 768 is awesome speed to me
I'm very happy with this service thus far, the speed is great even with 3-4 PC's doing stuff on the network, The modem was easy to setup to work with my wireless router when i got it, the setup of the service was extremely excellent. Nice service for the price and the contract term, and I look forward to staying with it for many years to come.
Can't beat the price for such a decent service--as far as I know $26.95(was the toal when i was on Express package, new total is $28.20 with Elite(6016/768 package) Elite is a great package, as much as we use internet, having the extra speed from Express, Pro, Elite helps out alot, I download videos, (legal videos), online gaming, voice over ip with skype or yahoo messenger voice. with 4-5 PC's active constanly...
So I rate this service as excellent, the times i did have to speak to support was always great at solving problems..and getting issues resolved....So very happy customer, and plan to stay with SBC(At&T yahoo DSL) for a long long time
10/04/2007 Update: Very Happy with the Service, No Downtime, excellent online game, all around wonderful service, will be with at&t yahoo dsl for years. Totally Awesome service, online gaming is great with this service.
