I have DISH TV, ATT cellphone service, internet is provided with the
cellphone personal hotspot.
No cables, no wires, no modems, no RFI in either direction.
Totally portable...I use a laptop and a big flat screen monitor. I take the
laptop with me on trips and the cellphone hotspot works amazingly well out
in the middle of nowhere.
Works great...
ATT cellphone service.

I've had uVerse, TV/phone/internet, for several years. RF on 20 meters had
been quite bad at freezing things up. A month or two back, due to some on
demand video issues, AT&T replaced the old equipment with an Arris NVG589
modem. This us an all in one box, no more outside/inside multiple units.


With some ferrite on the cables to this box (added on general principle) it
has seemed to be better than the previous.equipment. Only downside is that
if you get a power hit, it takes about two minutes for everything, telephone
included, to reboot. I have on my things to do list to add a battery backup
to get around this issue.

I have dealt with AT&T re DSL and U-Verse only to receive a different level
of unsatisfaction.

Against my own better wishes, I went with Comcast. To this date, as of 3
years ago, it has been bulletproof and fast,  not a (service) blip since day
one.
