Re: Karl must not have any reading comprehension. There's no contract. Correct.
The initial report I read said the user syncing at 97Mbps was 100 meters from the DSLAM. I've corrected it to show 1,400 feet.
While the full pipe is 25Mbps, my understanding is the majority of that is reserved for video and only 6Mbps is doled out as useable bandwidth by users. Where are you seeing people reporting 25Mbps being allocated wholly to broadband? |

Everyone with u-verse has a vdsl line provisioned at 25meg. This was in response to people are getting 20-25meg at 3000 feet. |

| Corrected. "Contract" was used accidentally in place of "promotional period". 100 meters was replaced with 1,400 feet. 20-25Mbps has been corrected to read just 25Mbps.
Thanks! |

The prices listed on the u-verse website are not promotional. They are the prices you pay. They do have current promotions of 2 free months of service for signing up. You would know this if you had read either the press release or the u-verse website. |

4 edits | You've changed your fine print recently. What the fine-print used to read:
*Offer subject to change. Quoted monthly price includes AT&T U-verse TV, AT&T Yahoo! High Speed Internet U-verse Enabled with a 12-month promotional rate, and a $10 bundle discount. >>>>Standard Internet rates apply after 12-month promotional term. 3 Months Free TV Offer expires 7/31/06. Offer applies to TV programming packages U200, U300, or U400 and installation. Customer will be responsible for Video on Demand and Pay Per View charges. Taxes, city video cost-recovery fees, and additional fees extra. No credits for cancellation prior to 90 days of service. New U-verse qualified subscribers only....
Except nowhere was there a mention of what the "standard internet rates" were. If there has been a change making these monthly charges permanent, it's a welcome one.
Thanks for the corrections! (Clearly I have some degree of reading comprehension?)  |
