said by joako :After all AT&T is _THE_ phone company it would be trivial for them to hook up another copper pair and use that for U-Verse ... Not here. Only a 25 pair F2 on the poles. I am certain that no spare pair is available for another drop to this premises. California PUC only requires 1.5 x the number of premises passed in the F2. And the line guys, working on a voice problem, assure me that there was no pair to swap to for the problem. No spare pair, no Uverse until the pair we have is freed up of the DSL connection.
Unless the Southeastern states were harsher on Bellsouth than California was on The Pacific Telesis Group, it might be the same in AT&T Southeast. -- Norman ~Oh Lord, why have you come ~To Konnyu, with the Lion and the Drum |
