Re: Does Fiber Conduct Electrcity?
Managing it allows them access to get in to it and make changes. You must return it because they own it. This is the same as a cable box would be or a cable modem, or, in the past, a leased telephone handset.
Ownership doesn't have any determination on what a CPE is, rather, where its placed.
Your old gateway, which was owned by them, aka "DSL modem" if it was leased was theirs to take in the first place. Your old TOS most certainly did allow them to take their CPE/DSL Modem if it was leased. Now, if you purchased it and they took it, then there is a problem for you to resolve.
And, by the way, you don't have fiber to the premise in either case of DSL or U-Verse. Its just fiber into the node or as some people call them, the refrigerator. |

Cedar Park, TX | The old TOS did not allow them to take the gateway but frankly I don't care.
BTW, I most certainly do have fiber to the premise. I'm really getting sick of so called experts trying to tell me what I do and don't have. |

1 edit | Ok - put your money where your mouth is...
1) Try answering the questions that were asked of you.
2) Point us "so-called experts" where at&t has fiber to the premise.
3) Point us/me to the TOS that says they don't have the right to take the gateway (which could have been answered by you actually answering the questions asked of you above)...
... or, why don't you stop posting on a public DISCUSSION FORUM things that, quite frankly some so-called experts know better about, you're most likely to get called to the table on when it smells like bullshit.
You stuck your neck out there, and now your getting your face slapped. You can do two things, participate in the discussion that you brought up, or, shut up, walk away and look a fool.. the choice is yours.
(and for the record, this so-called "expert" can tell you that FTTP was not DSL... no matter what you think you have or had) |

| You mean like these people: »Review of AT&T FTTP by MarkyD
And these ones: »utalk.att.com/utalk/board/messag···id=12867
U-verse is two things: FTTN VDSL in brownfield existing homes. In new suburbs and other greenfield sites where there is no copper, it will be FTTH/FTTP using GPON most of the time.
Just like Verizon uses VDSL for condos/apartments and has two types of PON equipment there are two types of u-verse. |
