| Well, if AT&T equipment were to interfere with Comcast, it would be logically implied that the Comcast signals are interfering with AT&T's equipment, right?
Or am I missing something here..........?

I have to disagree that the interference would HAVE to effect both systems. You have to remember that the Comcast gear has been in place for years, while AT&T's gear was designed after the fact. It's quite likely the designers took into account that this problem might come up, and designed the UVerse gear to deal with it, or at the very least to ignore the interferring signal they knew might be an issue.
But yeah an anon from comcast.net defending comcast is a pretty tough sell.

The impact on the U-verse side would be limited to the house that is hooked up wrong.
Comcast is 100% coax throughout the neighborhood.
If you connect a U-verse device to Comcast's cable plant you have the potential to affect everyone on that segment in the neighborhood.
I'm not sure why this would be limited to U-verse though; Verizon uses coax for FiOS as well, so one would have to imagine that this type of cross cabling has occurred on at least a handful of those installs as well. |

| The difference, and the reason VZ probably hasn't had to deal with this, is that there is no reason to have Fios but use cable internet. Maybe a select few using cable as a backup, but not nearly the number of customers who want UVerse TV/phone with the faster speeds of cable for the internet connection.
So there you have it, AT&T could avoid the problem all together by offering faster speeds so that they have a better than cable product, which would allow the install techs to disconnect the incoming cable co feed

exactly, both FiOS and U-verse interface with coax in some way or the other. And one would think that Comcast would be quickest to lay blame to their biggest threat, which is Verizon FiOS, not U-Verse.

If your neighbor has FIOS, and left their coax connected it could interfere with your cable. Comcast is notorious for "disconnecting" its cable connection, yet not really disconnecting it and leaving it on for over a year before they actually get to the pole to remove it. I guess this means when someones cable is turned off, Comcast is going to have to send a tech right away to remove the connection. That will mean $$$ for comcast.

HPNA, VDSL2 and CATV operate at different frequencies, there is no overlap of services. U-verse is actually designed to allow CATV to run in conjunction with U-verse services. CATV and HPNA are separated by ~20MHz of spectrum. |
