Just curious, all the people who have gotten the 32mb profile so far, are you on the 18 Mbps tier? |

Ok I just got uverse and I'm trying to find the screen which shows the speeds that people are posting. On the "Broadband Link – Statistics" this is all there is:
IP Bytes Packets Errors %
Transmit: 498891 889 0 0
Receive: 681206885 495250 0 0
What am I missing? |

I had 32/5, but today the RG dropped the connection and went back to 25/2. Strange... My max rate is still 59mbps. There were no correctable or uncorrectable blocks when I had the profile (and there still aren't).
No amount of restarting the RG has brought it back.  |

It requires the password off the RG. |

enter your password, click on Statistics under Broadband Link.
If this doesn't work, substitute your RG's IP address for "gateway.2wire.net". |

"We got a mail today that they are rolling back the 32 megs s they have lots of problems. All 32meg customers are being changed to 25meg by Tier 2 and we are supposed to call in if we get a 32 meg install to have it downgraded. I did 2 32 megs the other day and all was fine. I don't know what the issue is they're having with them"

1 edit | Why do I have a feeling that this may be the thing that pushes AT&T to reconsider their use of FTTN? A lot of telephone lines are in quite the bad shape and they simply can't handle the data throughput that VDSL is pushing.
The fact that they have to backpeddle isn't good news at all to both customers and stockholders. They might just have to wake up and smell the coffee and realize that this VDSL plan isn't going to work as well as they had hoped.

| I think it's a little early to start proclaiming this event as being the death of Uverse via VDSL. We simply dont know what the problem is that AT&T is encountering. It could be something to do with the third HD stream or a equipment issue. The lines aren't necessarily a issue. ATT is only trying to send 32 Mbps down, no where near the magical 50 Mbps VDSL is capable of. Like it or not, VDSL is a proven medium. It's used in many places outside the US, and they do not have the vague line issues you are referring to. |

They made a non-publicized internal change to something that's technically quite feasible, they backed off of it because of something (what we don't know), and you're ready to link this to a tens-of-billions-of-dollars investment question and your supposed "knowledge" that VDSL doesn't work? |

I hate to say it but the 30-50 year old copper in some areas is not making things any better. The Att tech said the only reason why we could not get dsl to my grandmas house was due to the line quality, not distance limitations, and this story has been heard before.
Also VDSL in itself was not a large mistake, it allowed ATT to join the tv world without going broke, atleast we have a choice other than comcrap (or any cable co) and the dish. |

| Line quality is a issue for any medium: cable, phone, or electric. On the rare occasion, a line quality issue will arise. As such, that issue cant be the overriding factor behind such a large decision such as VDSL or FTTP, IMO. |

Well, I can tell you the reason this is being backed off has little to do with line quality.
Not saying anything else. |
