 | What speed is my modem actually set at? I'm honestly not sure of the speed we subscribe to, so I'm posting here to find out (1) what speed I'm getting, and (2) what speed I should be getting. Speed tests almost always show between 5 and 6 mbit down and between 768k and 1mbit up.
I have U-Verse HD on 4 TVs, and I know U-Verse uses the same connection for TV and Internet, so could they be taking away some of the bandwidth from my internet? How much so?
My stats are here:

 | Check your bill for accurate profile, I would say elite (6/1), on 25m profile. Standard TV is about 2meg, HD 6meg, 25 profile is 3HD/1SD. If above is true your speed is not affected much (6+6+6+2+6=26) so using all four channels of TV would drop your speed little, if on MAX (12) internet or MAX Plus (18) then more HD channels watching would have an affect on your speed, prefence is giving to TV not internet when distribution of bandwidth is exceeded. |

 | reply to Midwest PT Okay, thanks! I thought that might be what was going on, but since I'm not used to U-verse style shared bandwidth networks, I wasn't sure. I found the folder with TV and Internet info from the install, and it is 6/1 internet. Just wanted to make sure we weren't having some serious issues. |

 | reply to jamesonnorth What model of Uverse modem do you have? I'm curious as to why the broadband stats page would show that 2nd line? It is almost like your install tech used an iNID, but used the traditional profile for a single pair install. |

 | I think we have an iNID. I'm almost completely sure it's fiber to the house. There's an awful lot of orange cable in the neighborhood...
I think it's the i38HG.
I feel very dumb with UVerse! And to think, I'm an IT guy! |

| You do have an inid that is installed on the outside of your house, it is most certainly not "fiber" to your house..An inid is usually used when you are over 3,000' on the copper from the equipment out in th field.
I do notice that you should have sync on both lines(pairs) Your line1 shows sync but your line2 shows no sync so you could have an issue with a bad inid, bad drop pair(either underground or aerial) feeding that 2nd line or there could be an issue with the actual port sending the signal or something in the copper in between.
Definitely worth a call to the 800-288-2020 number to see whats going on, or you can post in the direct forum and someone can look at it before you call in |

 | reply to jamesonnorth On most iNID installs, each line is stuck with the 19M profile with an aggregate profile of 25M. I just seems very odd that you have 1 line on the 25M profile with the normal 25M aggregate. It is as if your install tech used the iNID equipment, but with just a single pair and the normal single pair profile. |

| or there is a short in the drop or pair and its shifting all the bandwidth to line1, it can do that on LL(loop lengths) less than 3000' and even ones up to 3300~3500 but with all services usually will have issues with all the bandwidth on one pair greater than 3500' |

 | reply to Midwest PT Where on my installation or bill will this data be present? |
