Re: AT&T Download SpeedsThat sucks... I had initialy 1.5/256 from AT&T for 1 year (PPPoE no less) After the 1 year promo expired, DSL-Extreme offered same price as AT&T has initially, and for a couple $$ more, 3Mbps/512kbps on DHCP. It worked well. After ~ 1 year (just after renewing, no less), I ended up getting some sync loss, and ended up living at between 2496/512kpbs and 1984/512kbps for quite some time.
AT&T stated that I should only be at 1500/384 because I'm near 12,000' from the CO (prequal at 9,000'). After AT&T's rewiring for Uverse (line drop was due to water in the lines - typically when sprinklers went off, my SNR went into the toilet... same time every day for ~ 6 months). Now I have a really steady 3008/512kbps sync @ 12,000', and AT&T (through web or store or even resellers like DSL-Extreme) will give 1500/384 kbps. :mad:
