Re: Cedar Park Rant FWIW... AT&T SE is migrating away from ATM. they sent letter's out to some users that their PPPoA wouldn't work after a certain date. If you're on FTTP it's a pretty good chance you may not be on ATM at all.
Not sure how SBC does it. |

| Don't I wish. Here in SBC/TX the FTTP is still PPPoE and our IP's come out of the same netblock as the DSL customers.
When I do speedtests I see 5MB down just like when I had DSL `Elite`. The uploads are better since it's 1MB up instead of 768 UP but again I only see 80K not the full 6/1 that U-Verse users see. |

| PPPoE is not exclusive to ATM networks.
Your speedrate has everything to do with ABC's DSL provisioning. |
|
|
|
| Duh, you think? Trust me, I know these things already... for many, many years. |
|
| Then you should realize if they set your provisioning cap slightly higher you'd be getting true 6MB even on a PPPoE connection or an ATM network...duh. |
|
| You mean like Bell Atlantic/Verizon did for me years ago?
You do realize your talking about ATT? (Duh) |
