Tis Is nice of them

Regardless of whether the equipment used to access your Service (modem, gateway, etc.) is owned by you or AT&T, AT&T reserves the right to manage such equipment for the duration of your Service, and retains exclusive rights to data generated by the equipment. Neither you nor a third party may change, interfere with, or block access to equipment data or settings.

This is kinda funny to manage My equipment they would have to activly out right hack it.

Oh and this

Tampering with the U-verse Equipment, or attempting to connect the equipment to other hardware, will be treated as damage due to your intentional acts or negligence. You agree that you will use the equipment only for its intended residential use, and not for any other purpose (such as on another AT&T network, or on another provider’s (non-AT&T) network).

Does this include other routers ???

(b) ensure that you exit from your account at the end of each session; and (c) periodically change your password. There is a risk that other users may attempt to access your computer through the Internet or connected networks. You acknowledge this risk as inherent to the shared nature of the Service and you agree to take full responsibility for taking adequate security precautions and safeguarding your data from loss

How can one keep there network secure with the above right to manage your netowork even if you own your own hardware.

It says "tampering". Connecting a router isn't "tampering". I'm pretty sure that particular clause is in reference to people opening up U-verse DVRs and replacing the hard drives in them with larger capacities.

Well a more descritive description Should be added.

On the markating side if that is the case they could offer to upgrade trhe hardrive in them to larger capacitys including transfering the already stored Data to the new drives. Or add 1394 plug on the units like Charter has on their boxes.
