So now that I have had uverse in my house for a week, I have been quite surprised by the service for the most part! Installation was great, the tech was the most awesome tech that I have ever had on my property. He was professional, addressed my needs and was even very knowledgeable. I would buy this guy a six pack and not think twice about it. He got everything in a matter of an hour and even upgraded my profile from the 24 profile to the 32 profile.
The big elephant is PQ.. You can defiantly tell a difference, and it's hit or miss. Some channels look BETTER than directv if not just as good, Others not so much. It's almost like you can tell they are bit shapeing and downgrading the resolution. I don't like how the box doesn't do a native resolution, or have that feature. I am able to get 4 streams and that has meet our needs for the most part. The only thing that I wish att would have done was I Wish they would have gone the FTTP route as I would have been a customer for life with FTTP. I understand that the bean counters were bulking on the build out costs, but that would have been offsetted by the fact that I would have remained a customer for so long, as many others probably would have.
Channel lineup is great.. I only had one time that ATT dropped a whitesox game due to CSN alternate feeds being so full someone forgot to flip the swich. I was surprised at how many RSN's are on uverse, and as well as the international lineup. Over all.... I am happy with uverse... I have had no issues with the equipment and everything has been working flawlessly. Uverse has made alot of improvements, but still has improvements to make. They need to find a way to upgrade profiles as well as get more data to the end users. That answer is FTTP. The sad thing is if this would have been done to begin with, they would have been done with it by now and could actually compete and beat docsis 3.0's speeds. I wish they could do this as well as upping the bitrate on the channels to a native resolution and native bit-rate. Simply put pass along what the channel provider gives them. That with their Vid over IP delivery would have been the most awesome solution!
Over all I would give uverse a 3.5 out of 5. Needs improving but not as bad as it used to be.
