LOL! Fixed 5g, you mean the tech without a finalized spec that’s deployed almost nowhere? That fixed 5g?
I’d bet a dollar that at the end of next year fixed 5g will be deployed in a few more cities at best, and no rural coverage at all for at least 3-4 more years if ever.

That’s exactly what it is without the benefits of cable/sat but at nearly the same price. All offered with no new customer deals at all but has a 2-year commitment for no good reason.

I posted an article a couple months ago in which an AT&T rep actually says they would no longer be offering deals for existing DTV customers: Article: Traditional TV Providers No Longer Cutting Deals to Keep Customers
Its in the cities and populated areas...they need an outside antenna...dont hold your breath for rural areas until 3g frequencies available for reuse...it wont be called 5g...fer sure

I was talking to a friend of mine that works for Mediacom and he said that the only retention deal they are using now is a free year of their overpriced phone service. Of course that comes with a cost of using their cable modem and having an actual phone to use. Since that phone service has no value to me at all I figure I’ll be doing the ‘streaming dance’ in about a year!!

It is in a very, very few cities now and not even covering all of those cities. Call it a snail’s pace rollout if it makes you feel better. I stand by my predictions.

Yep. Been a customer since '97. Been fiddling with exit options the last few years including Shield, FTV, Roku, Hulu, DTV Now, WinTV, Tablo, etc. Have attic antennas that get all my locals and 1gb ATT fiber.
Think I finally found the winner in YoutubeTV. All my locals, fast, integrated guide, intuitive, 9-month DVR storage, and 50 bucks a month. Works on my LG OLED but not my FTV bricks and sticks so I need a few Roku's. Have three Roku boxes in parts bin so I'll fire them up for now as I only have one UHD TV. I can also cast it from and view it on all my other devices.
On three week free trial and think then it will be bye bye DTV. Had hoped for their upcoming Internet solution but it appears to be DOA. Oh well, it was a good run. A tech leader has become a has been. Can't say I didn't expect that when bought by Ma Bell II.

Darn my timings good. No problem as I haven't used DTV in days. Already have one foot out the door using YouTubeTV. It does everything DTV did except better. Only AT&T could be crummy enough to lose a 22-year customer. I was cheap too. Multiple moves with only two "professional" installs. Had to have then out to convert me to HD and then to set up WholeHome. Had to show the installer how to do that. I did eight myself by plus many, many, RV setups.
Kind of sad companies don't value customer loyalty anymore. Bye, bye.
I guess that I got lucky, I got on the ground floor on Directv Now when it was 100 channels for $38 a month with tax and fees and they gave me an Apple TV box for free for joining, now its (ATT Now) and and while the price has gone up to about $46 a month I still get 100 channels and i've been very happy. The only thing I dislike is that ATT has a Cap on their internet.
AT&T Internet/Fiber has been waiving their data cap for customers that also have DirecTV Now/AT&T TV Now. If you have both services, they have already waived your cap. If not, you should contact their customer service and ask to have it waived. (That said, once AT&T TV becomes available where you live, that's going to be the service they want to bundle with your AT&T Internet/Fiber service, not AT&T TV Now.)
