AT&T - Cable TV over Phone Line?
« on: March 22, 2008, 11:00:18 PM »
Anyone heard of this? I guess its a new technology from AT&T that provides Cable TV over your phone lines. Its cheaper than Comcast and is supposed to be good. I'm going to switch to it. :yes:

AT&T U-Verse? I hear they have no WeatherSTARs, so you'll be getting the Satellite LF on TWC.

It certainly looks intriguing. But how can you watch TV and be on the phone/internet at the same time? Do you have to put in a second line? I noticed that their internet isn't as fast as Comcast. :(

Its one teleport, and has a multiband channel usage.
