Comments on: In Ohio, AT&T U-verse Is Having Problems http://gigaom.com/2008/05/01/in-ohio-att-u-verse-is-having-problems/ Tracking the Internet Evolution Sun, 07 Sep 2008 00:14:53 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=MU hourly 1 By: TomNTexas http://gigaom.com/2008/05/01/in-ohio-att-u-verse-is-having-problems/#comment-888168 TomNTexas Sat, 12 Jul 2008 15:28:45 +0000 http://gigaom.wordpress.com/?p=13271#comment-888168 HEY George, I agree...stop complaining about Uverse...JUST SHITCAN THAT PIECE OF GARBAGE AND GET SOMETHING ELSE THAT ACTUALLY WORKS AT LEAST 95% OF THE TIME. I was told my Inet would be a T1...evidently the "T" being a piece of wire streched between two TIN cans. On the other hand the TV picture is clear as a bell when its not pixelating, screen freezing, and going to black with a "poor quality signal" message on it. The upside is that one of our two phones works "all the time" with a downside being the mess the ELEVEN count em, eleven techs, the last one a supervisor, open wire mess they left behind them. Incidently if you intend to keep Uverse and want internet speed go to USB and use Firefox. The ATT buggy Yahoo browser never has worked right even with DSL. But you're right George rather than complaining any longer my next phone call will be "Hello ATT. Come get your junk out of my house!" HEY George,

I can keep going...it's all been a lovely ride.
