Re: 45 Mbps service

said by Red Hazard:

Checked AT&T site and determined that the new 45 Mbps tier is available (I'm about 1500 buried cable ft from the VRAD). I ran CAT5e from my utility room to the outside NID about a year ago but never got U-Verse. If I just sign up for 45 Mbps internet
service will I be getting the NVG589? If so, will they use the CAT5e between it and the NID, and if they do, how many pairs will they use? I prefer not to use my coax from utility room to the cable co outside interface. Thanks
Also is the cap for 45 Mbps still 250GB?

Yes you will get a NVG589 -- It's the only RG supported currently for the Power Tier.

Yes it requires multiple pairs -- They use two pairs from the outside to the RG (router/gateway) for the service.

Typically the connection is ran over a cat5 cable for the telephone connection from the outside.

Thanks all for the responses. I rewired my U-verse RJ11/VDSL for 2 pairs (was 1) based on this info (USOC color code and green and brown pairs to 3&4 and 2&5 respectively).
