reply to ptrowski

Re: 80 for Elite?

The speeds are going UP Mr Ptrowski because they apparently want people to not watch tv while surfing their 18Mb uverse service. How else would you get 18Mb speeds out of a 25Mb Line?

You would ALSO get it by having to then CAP people at "ridiculous" levels..so ridiculous that the 20Mb cap is not even ONE TENTH what Comcast "caps" at.

The limitations of this "next generation" Uverse service are falling apart by the minute as they desperately try to be anything at all in this new world of broadband being introduced by verizon with their FTTH service..and comcast with docsis 3.0.
Exactly..as I predicted it would. Up to 2 years ago..unless they heeded the suggestion that they MUST begin a FTTH rollout.

Now..they pay they price.

And nowhere is that more evident than in YOUR own statement..about how YOU will be bailing on them.

Said by Ptrowski:
"No way. If that is their idea I will switch back to the local cable company. 80 gb is RIDICULOUS."

You're right Ptrowski.
Absolutely right.

Again, although at the same speeds you forget that they ARE deploying FTTH. There are some AT&T customers that have fiber. I assume you forgot that.

I don't want Uverse TV. I have Directv and have no need for their services. So I would take the higher speeds.

Let me break it down to small sentences for you.

Ptrowski = no current caps.
Rick = current caps
Caps = bad
More speed = good for everyone*

*ANY speed increases in the broadband world as a whole is good. It promotes competition which benefits everyone. Do I need to wrap that sentence in a brick and bang you over the head with it?
