AT&T can't seem to catch a break when it comes to the bulky VRAD cabinets they need to install on city streets for their U-Verse VDSL and IPTV service. A number of communities have complained that the large VRAD cabinets reduce their property value (Comcast even used the complaints in an anti-U-Verse ad campaign). Most of the complaints have generally focused on the ugliness of the boxes, but New Haven locals are now complaining that graffiti on those boxes are making them even uglier, and they're trying to ensure AT&T cleans it up.AT&T is doing a good job of cleaning things up, something they say is company policy for all equipment. Still, these cabinets have proven to be a bit of a pain. They've exhibited the occasional but annoying tendency to explode, aesthetically anger city residents when not busy exploding, and they create one more thing AT&T techs have to clean. Of course AT&T could have avoided these cabinets altogether if they had embraced pure fiber to the home, something they'll eventually wind up doing anyway.
