I was previously using AT&T dsl, barely getting the PRO package (3 mb/s). With U-verse, I am easily getting 6 mb/s and could go up to 18 mb/s if I should need that. We are perhaps 1500 to 2000 feet from the VRAD, well within the range for reliable service.
We went to U-verse because of the TV. The alternative is comcast, and we don't much like that company. We were using over-the-air TV, but that became more iffy after the switch to HDTV.
TV is reliable and high quality. Telephone (U-verse voice) is reliable and the voice quality seems as high as the POTS line we previously had. We switched both phone lines over to U-verse, and the cost savings helps pay for the U-verse. Internet service is great.
There were a few temporary glitches for the install. See »Uverse available - what can I expect? for details.
I am using my own router with this service. Unfortunately the supplied RG does not have any DNS settings.
