The address gets listed as "un-serviceable - see notes" in ATTBI's system. The notes say that the previous subscriber was eliminated for abuse (IE running a server or un-capping...) and a new subscriber must call the legal center. The new subscriber must provide a copy of a new lease or proof of purchase of the house and then address gets listed as serviceable again. (Thank you Kasia for procuring this info from ATTBI) by Revcb With certification from CableLabs, manufacturers are able to produce cable modems for retail, so consumers no longer have to depend on leased cable modems from their cable providers. DOCSIS specifies downstream traffic transfer rates between 27 and 36 Mbps over a radio frequency (RF) path in the 50 MHz to 750+ MHz range, and upstream traffic tranfer rates between 320 Kbps and 10 Mbps over a RF path between 5 and 42 MHz. But, because data over cable travels on a shared loop, individuals will see tranfer rates drop as more users gain access.

What are the newsgroup servers for bellsouth.net??? I continually get the messages "no route to host" or "Server times out" I use Agent, and have newsgroups.bellsouth.net as a server. I have had the same settings for a long time with few problems, but lately, nothing works? by Revcb 3Com CMX2940, 3CR29220, 3CR29221, 3CR29223 Arris/Nortel CM100, CM200, CM200U BestData CMX100, CMX110 COM21 DP1010, DP101, DP111, DP1110, Doxport 1110 D-Link DCM-100 and 200 Ericsson PipeRider HM200C High Speed Surfing SM100 Linksys BEFCMU10 Motorola (formerly General Instruments) SB2100, SB3100, SB4100 Thomson/RCA DCM105, DCM205, DCM215, DCM225, DCM226, DCM235, DCM235R, DCM245, DCM245R Toshiba DAZ8801, DAZ8811, DAZ8813, PCX1100, PCX1100U Zoom 5011 (external model only) Note: According to ATT, any DOCSIS compliant modem should work.
by IcEr3K The file (netcenter.cfg) contains a list of items that can be checked by netdiag.exe. Each item in the list must be in a specific format. These items then appear as buttons on the Connectivity tab in Netdiag, and as items in the drop-down lists on the Ping and Trace Route tabs. The format for items in the list is as follows: server_type ; help_file_name or URL ; name=host "server_type" can be any of the following... Gateway, NameServer, MailServer, NewsServer, WebServer, ProxyServer, FileServer, or Server "help_file_name or URL" is optional. You can use a web address or any local html file name with an htm extension. This file is where the buttons on the Connectivity tab will take you to (via your browser) when you click on them.) "name=host" serves two purposes: "name" allows you to specify the text displayed on the buttons or in the drop-down lists, "host" allows you to specify the URL or IP of the server being tested. Instead of using "name=host", you can use "name=AutoDetect" to have Netdiag detect your Gateway or Name Servers. AutoDetect does not work for the other types of servers. Below are some examples of properly formatted items in the list.. This first one checks the local PC... Gateway ; netmon.htm ; Local Host = 127.0.0.1 In this example, the server type is a "Gateway", the file displayed when the button is clicked is "netmon.htm" (a file that is originally installed with the @Home netdiags package), and the button will display "Local Host" as the text. The program will perform pings to 127.0.0.1 when the test is run. This next one checks for the attbi gateway... Gateway ; ; ATTBI Gateway = Autodetect Again, the server type is a "Gateway", and no file is displayed when you click on the button, but in this case the program does an autodetect of the attbi gateway and runs tests to it. These next two check DNS servers... NameServer ; ; Att Name Server = 204.127.202.4 NameServer ; ; UofP Name Server = 136.142.57.10 The above are examples of hard-coded DNS server values. Again, no files are displayed when the buttons are clicked. If desired, you can instead use... NameServer ; ; Att Name Server = Autodetect This next one checks the attbi mail server... MailServer ; netmon.htm ; ATT Mail = mail.attbi.com This one checks the attbi news sesrver... NewsServer ; netmon.htm ; ATT News = netnews.attbi.com This checks the attbi web server... WebServer ; netmon.htm ; ATT Web = www This checks the proxy server... ProxyServer ; netmon.htm ; Proxy Server = proxy This checks one of my favorite sites... WebServer ; http://www.dslreports.com ; DSLReports = www.dslreports.com This last one will provide a button labeled "DSLReports", will run tests to the DSLR site, and will take you to DSLReports (via your browser) if you click on the button In the version that I have (version 2.1), you can have up to nine buttons - some later versions support more. Unfortunately, running Netdiag in the "installer" mode (and the extra speed test that you used to be able to run) no longer works.
by rockotman -First, you could ask a representative at your local office. If you are lucky enough and the service is available, you can order right there on the spot as well as look through sales pamphlets outlining the features. -Or, you can call a myriad of ATTBI Toll-free phone numbers to speak to a representative over the phone. Try 1-888-824-8058 or 1-800-267-0064 and follow the prompts. -Lastly, try online at ATTBI's homepage. Once there, click on the "Check Availability" link towards the upper right-hand corner. Once there, enter all required fields and wait for the result. An alternative to the above is as follows: Enter the service check page from the main attbroadband.com page. Enter an address that you know has the service. For me, it was a friend. Whenever the page comes up with the three services listed (data, telephony, and television) there should be a "Order now" link under the internet block. Right click on that>Copy link address. Paste that link in your address bar on your browser. Then delete the existing street, city, state, and zip code entries, and enter yours (for me, I only had to change the street). Hit go and you will be taken the order page. At the top should be an image saying "Congratulations" with your address underneath if you are serviceable. Note: Using the "Check Availability" link, I am listed as not serviceable even though next week (at the time of the writing) I am having it installed. Under the method where you edit the URL, my result comes up positive. Still confirm with your local office, because the online database is notorious for saying addresses are not serviceable while customers surfing them using the ATTBI service itself! Best of luck in hunting down AT&T Broadband internet service.
Neither 888-824-8058 nor 800-267-0064 is correct: 1st is Comcast; 2nd is I know not what---I hung up---they didn't specify a company name! Neither 888-824-8058 nor 800-267-0064 is correct: 1st is Comcast; 2nd is I know not what---I hung up---they didn't specify a company name! by beeman65 This has changed within the last 6 months. You can now keep your email address for free as long as you left your account in good standing.
And, in actuality.. it used to be $24.95 a month, not just a one time transfer fee. AT&T required you to have the email address associated with an active internet account, so if you cancel dsl.. you could keep a dial up only account to keep your email address, current price on dial up is $24.95. 2009-09-16 18:03:57 There is no fee to keep email addresses but when you move you must register the account using the master account(email address) and password when registering.
No transfer fee with AT&T 2010-04-13 15:58:51 | ||||||||||||
