Re: Is U-Verse really that bad

I think the "I should get to use all the bandwidth, and have even more if I live closer to the VRAD" is pointless, and opens AT&T up to lawsuits. If you cant live with 6MB of downspeed, you need assistance.

Is U-verse top notch service? No. The DVR has failed on me a few times, rebooting the gateway takes forever, and I've gone through a few outages since Ive had it in May. Their automated phone and computer help is also for shit. Their address database is riddled with errors, and their voice-prompted phone service sucks ass. The WiFi from the gateway is also lousy (although I have not had it replaced yet, so it could just be me).

Given that, the cost is significantly less than having these services through Comcast. U-verse doesnt force me to keep landline phone service, which is a HUGE plus. It works enough of the time to keep me as a customer, as opposed to shelling out much more for Comcast.

Now, if I had FiOS in my area, Id jump on that shit in a hurry.

regardless... I'd like to see Uverse demo'd before I actually think about purchasing.

The nearest place to 'demo' is 300 miles north of Los Angeles.
What kind of joke is that.

Rest assured, the demo will work perfectly. Demos are useless when worrying about real world performance.

True, but I'd like to see what's actually being offered, and if I want it. (i.e. HD channels, try out the DVR / menus, VoIP, etc.)
If I'm going to have someone come in and rewire cat 5 / 6 through my house and kill a day, I want to see / try what I'm going to be getting.

I'm sure the demo would work perfectly.
