Not Worth It

I wouldn't want that ugly thing in my yard for a wimpy 6Mbps DSL service. pffft.

And yes, the 1st poster's comment was terribly formatted and just as ugly to look at as those VRADs.

Acgtually it's 10Mb/s service. Also if you wanted 25Mb/s service you'd need one.

I can only see one benefit having one of those things on your yard. At such a short distance from the home, your VDSL gateway should be synced at 100-200 Mbps, easy. AT&T should offer those that do have to put up with these things on their yard with service that makes use of all that speed, instead of just capping the internet to 10 Mbps, leaving TV to chew up the rest, which it possibly cant.

So if you could get 50-100+ Mbps internet plus enough capacity to drive every HD tv in your house simultaneously, is it worth it? I know it's bigger than a satellite dish... but with some creative landscaping, you could at least make it look like your trying to hide it. lol

T would have to *offer* 25mbps before you could get it. the other 15mbps is for VIDEO.

I meant it in regards to the assertion they should have just focused on increased speed. Even if they focused only on internet speeds, you'd still need a cabinet.
