Re: Pricing and speeds U-verse can suck it. I've got U-verse in a new neighborhood with FTTP, and the fastest AT&T can offer me is 18/1.5. I have to believe it's all marketing so they can tell everyone that U-verse is a fiber connection, not a mixture of FTTP and fancy DSL.

| It is probably not the fastest they can offer you, it is the fastest they will offer you. |

AFAIK, AT&T FTTP is BPON fiber, not DSL. I believe they cap FTTP down to their FTTH speeds to avoid consumers ragging on them to deploy even more FTTP.

| I was referring to the copper customers as fancy DSL. Your belief about shafting us FTTP customers is exactly what I mean. It's ridiculous to have a full fiber connection and only able to get 18/1.5. I had to upload a 9.3 GB file the other day, and it took 20 hours. Ridiculous!
