Re: bellsouth tv
Thanks man I retired in 2001 and this was all after me and what I heard was from still working friends but I didn't know anyone directly involved with the test and did not know they got that kind of speed.
Back of my head seem like the cabinets were much smaller? |

That's ATT for ya. They only care about their $$$ but if more companies would outsource call centers in this country we wouldn't have a problem understanding anyone. |

"was conducting IPTV trials before being acquired by AT&T."
I was the help desk manager of the trial. We were getting 48mb with ADSL2+ bonded at 4000 ft and with the MMX we got 80 mb to several homes. And as you said after the deal ATT said we don't care about any of that we are using VDSL 1.5 24 mb at 3000 ft. What idiots but they call the shots now and when your TV goes down hope you can understand the outsourced desk. |

| In central Fl. (Orlando) Bell had IPTV working 6-12 mo b4 the ATT buyout, it was in testing and some employees had it- seems like it was 25m but I'm not sure, that stopped with the deal.
ATT use different vendor eq that Bell so they started again with ATT.
Drums tell me that Orlando may see a roll out Dec or Jan, ATT is hiring techs to do the installs in Oct, train in Nov and then we will see.
I have heard of new 2 tier wage scales that say new people will make less and be a non union group but am not sure of these facts. |
