I was surprised too. They do seem to only SLA their advertised rate so I'm taking the higher speed as a bonus.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jul 13, 2011 at 3:15 PM, Andrew Wade <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:andrewiwade@gmail.com">andrewiwade@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

while I was getting on average 7 and 512 consistently. It really<br>
depends on your area and fiber to node and fiber to home for ATT (I use<br>
to be a Manager at the retail level when they started supplying Uverse<br>
and pushing it in stores). I switched to Comcast because I wanted more<br>
speed available in my house, since Uverse wasn't in my area and I was<br>
scared because of shared bandwidth and uptime, but I have been pretty<br>
satisfied, I have only been down like 2x in 2+years and I am paying for<br>
16mb and getting 21-24 down and 4-5 up on residential even at peak hours<br>
at night (I religiously check and will call if its under 16 :) ). I was<br>
terrified when they came out yesterday because I figured my signal was<br>
bad on Sunday but its still kicking. But for ATT when I did have it was<br>
only down about the same amount of time, but it was easier to get<br>
through support.<br>
