Re: New uverse = old adsl I, too, am in an unupgraded market. We moved offices a couple weeks ago and had AT&T move the phone lines. When they did, they terminated our legacy DSL service. When I inquired about it, they told me that DSL was no longer available and I'd have to upgrade to U-Verse. I went along with it, but neither U-Verse voice nor U-Verse TV are available, only Internet. The "new" service is the same 3 meg service we've always had. Even the modem they sent is a plain old ADSL2+ modem. As far as I'm concerned, it's not U-Verse unless it's VDSL with TV and voice. I guess this is AT&T's way of making the public "think" they are improving things, without actually putting any money into the network. |

That equipment has no TV capabilities thus its just DSL. -- The Future is uncertain but the END is always near! Jim Morrison |
