If I can. I'm about 1500 feet from the VRAD. 18/1.5 sounds great. Keeps Comcasts 16/2 tier at bay. |

Re: Sign me up!
It's actually a pretty good package.
I wouldn't mind something like this.
10 seemed a bit too low, but 18/1.5 sounds good to me.
Too bad South FLA wont see this for a while =( |

Is it for sure now that U-Verse internet is available as a standalone? I have DirecTV and I don't want Uverse TV, just Uverse phone and this new 18Mbps internet! |

Order TV and internet and then after 30 days cancel the TV and you can get a check for $200. At least that's the deal on their site right now. |

Re: Sign me up!
Speed sounds good, but the whole "still in the lab" thing needs to go away. They just need to run it out somewhere, at least a couple of homes and see what happens.
I hate it when the Marketing people get ahead of the smart people. I'm sure some guy somewhere said "Yeah, gets up to 18 Mbps in the lab but not sure about real work tests yet", but they stop listening after "18 Mbps" as they hurry to get out the word.

want the option to get U-Verse. Like the way their marketing goes ahead of actual deployment. The Miami/Ft. Lauderdale area has yet to see any REAL wide scale deployment. But they sure so advertise it. |

"Pair bonding requires a second copper pair at each house, two DSLAM ports assigned to each customer, and a special residential gateway outside the house that can terminate two pairs."
Doesn't sound cheap so when will AT&T realize they should just go to FTTH. |

Re: Standalone?
U-verse Internet has been available standalone for some time. However, they only offer "Max" standalone. Or, from what I've read, you can also get it if you don't qualify for regular DSL. They seem to charge a $99 install fee.
With the way AT&T's promos are structured, you're better off trying out their TV service and canceling after 30 days. Then you'll qualify for $200 back and free install.
