Re: Uverse Max

If you can get it at all you'll be able to get "full speed" on the broadband Internet part.

Hey Doc, do you know if the avaliability checker is update on the site? I can't find address that are avaliable but I know where boxes are and NONE of the addresses by them are?

I don't see Harvey getting this at all. Most of the southern suburbs of Chicago are old and have very old telephone copper. Which means high signal-to-noise ratios. I lived in Harvey and it was a nightmare to get idsl let alone some super speed trick vdsl. Until At&t solves the distance problem this is not going to take off at all and Comcast will maintain its death grip on Chicago and surrounding areas

To add to that, if you can get U-verse at all (as in installed), you can get any internet and TV package you want.

The "distance problem" is "solved" by placing the equipment within 5000 feet of the customers. That's the whole point of it. The age of your copper is not the issue...although the maintenance (or lack thereof) certainly plays a role over time. I would guess that most of Harvey is newer than most of La Grange.

The availability checker is up and running, but they are just starting to light up the Chicagoland area so the "yes" responses are quite limited at the moment. None of my numbers qualify yet, but I knew that already since the equipment I've seen around here is not operational yet.
