| Flex Bandwidth What AT&T should do is offer flexable bandwidth. What I mean is, offer 20Mb to every house. If you chose to hook up 3 TVs and drive the internet bandwidth down to 6Mb, then fine. If you have one TV, then move it up to 14MB. | |

Of course, this is IPTV, so even if you hook up 3 TV's, you're not necessarily using them all at the same time. I'm guessing this is what AT&T will mean by their version of "burst".
In most of these articles, AT&T has hinted that "pair bonding" and compression will keep LightSpeed up to snuff. I think they need to just plan on pair bonding out the gate, that would allow for enough bandwidth for HDTV and "next gen" level speeds.

VDSL2 can do 100mbs at 1000 feet. If the person has HD and at great enough distance, they should pairbond without question. | | |
