[SEDXC] AT&T U-VERSE problem thread on QRZ.com

[John Harden]

I NEVER considered Comcast and I got rid of ATT at home!! I've heard about 
too many problems with Comcast about being down, etc. The ATT upload speed 
was too slow for my 5 web cameras and was down too much. Also, the traffic 
during the business day was too heavy for the web cameras.

I went to a full T-1 line at home with Cav-Tel. It is rarely down and is 
lightening fast....... I would never go back...
