Chicago, IL | Good for them!!! Now somebody give AT&T a kick in ass because it will be 2050 before we see fiber speeds. |

| What's wrong with 10Mbps? It's not as if Verizon is selling 100Mbps. |

My friend has 30/5 which cost him $80 but it's shared by 4 people so $20 each is cost effective. |

| AT&T offers it on U-Verse...you get 10Mb/s it's not synched at that rate.
And distance affects sync rate. After that you're golden. |

| what's the cheapest TV/10Mbps FiOS package? DSL isn't the problem with IPTV. IPTV is the problem with IPTV. |

IPTV would be a lot better if it had more bandwidth. It just doesn't make sense cramming HiDef through a DSL line. |

| How much bandwisth do you think a DSL line can handle? The Uverse lines in particular. Just curious...because you're sounding like you believe it's only capable of slow speeds. |

25mbps is not enough for HD, it would be OK if they just used it for Internet like it was designed for. |
|
| 25Mb/s isn't the top of their speed capability. |

| said by bogey780:25Mb/s isn't the top of their speed capability. It is when you take into account line quality, distance, interference. Most people won't connect faster unless you go to pair bonding which has it's own set of problems. |
