Uverse internet finally available

On a whim, I checked to see if they finally turned it on since installing the VRAD a year ago, and it said available, but for internet and voice only, no tv yet.

I do have my install set for this friday. My internet bill will darn near be cut in half, and my speed goes from our cable max of 7mbps to 18mbps.

Curious as to why tv isnt available yet? Not that I necessarily wanted it, but I might have gotten a low package bundle to have as a backup to Directv in bad weather.

Wow, talk about a one-eighty. I got my second billing statement and two things stood out: a $100 charge for the replacement Residential Gateway that needed to be replaced, and the $36.05 a month discount for the U-verse promotion is now nowhere to be found.

Time to work the AT&T Chat system again...

?Did you get this worked out?

Yeah, no problem. I used the on-line Chat since I have had good luck with using it, and even though the Rep saw what had happened, their Tier Level would not allow them to fix it. I called the number they provided and had things back to normal in five minutes.

The $100 Router charge may or may not disappear on its own. They verified that the Pace Residential Gateway had been received back in September, but told me the credit system may take one to two billing cycles to credit the account. That could be bad if someone didn't have the $100 to pay the bill, even though they would get a credit the following month. Nice way to "borrow" small amounts of money interest-free!

Edit: Since you reminded me, I went and checked my on-line bill, and I see they credited me the amount I should be getting as a Promo, but there is a discrepancy of four days ($4.14) that should be added to the credit. To the Chat-Phone!!!

Update: I thought it was worked out, with the receipt of the returned Residential Gateway and the acknowledgment of the RG being received, I was told I would see the $100 credit in "one to two billing cycles". Well, I got the e-mail the other day and was surprised to see that it was for the "normal" $53 for the services and fees + taxes, and not $0. I tried calling the special Account Retention number I had been given earlier and the phone told me that I couldn't dial that number from this area(!).

After an over 70 minutes of hold time using the normal 800 number for U-verse, I talked with a CSR who actually told me that I should be paying a monthly fee for my RG. I lost my composure after fifteen minutes trying to explain my situation as it seems there were no notes on my account(!) saying anything about the failed Pace RG and the replacement 2Wire unit sent. Eventually she escalated me to the next tier and things got better (but more hold time!)

I may be boned here. AT&T says that I did not return my 2Wire residential gateway. Well, AT&T did not send me what I had, so I had to send the original Pace back in the 2Wire box as that's all I had. The nice Technical Tier CSR said that my RMA had been closed, refusing the credit, because the equipment did not match. I had no control over what was sent, so I started to get a little hot again. She said that she couldn't open the notes up without the Tracking #, and I said that I didn't have it. I was confused (this was all from the first week of September) and eventually I found the transcript on my computer of one of the online chats I had about this issue. Then I pulled up the e-mail that had the retracing number (USPS, not UPS!) and after that, things got better.

So, I am still waiting for the $100 credit for the faulty Pace Residential Gateway, and it may not get resolved until next year. I had taken the day off to get some things done around the house and I spent close to four hours getting this "resolved". Maybe I should cross-post in the "Annoyed" thread in the Pub...

I received an e-mail during the Holidays saying "your invoice is ready to be viewed." Yay! It, like our current temperature, is negative! The $100 credit finally went through. :up

I must say, other than this major hiccup with the Pace Residential Gateway and the replacement service, U-Verse has been great for Internet and Phone service. I've seen how clunky the HD DVR is at a friend's house, so I'm in no hurry to swap out Dish for U-Verse. It's nice to know that the 25 Mbps the techs verified on my copper is available to support up to 4 HD streams concurrently so that option is open, maybe in the summer/fall.

Paramount +

For the naysayers who did not think this service would make it, just added another 4.9M subscribers and that was after the removal of 1.2M Russia subscribers.

This is even better, Paramount+ revenue grew 120% and Subscription revenue grew 74% year-over-year ( 2nd quarter 2021/ 2nd quarter 2022) to $830M, principally reflecting paid subscriber growth on Paramount+.

Now compare that to Peacock with only 13 million paid, 13 million free.

Just noticed, CBS shows on Paramount+ are now same day premieres vs next day, which is how they used to be.

Also in 4K/HDR/DV.

I wonder how providers feel about this, they pay an expensive per sub fee for CBS, who is giving another positive reason to drop Paid Live TV and subscribe to P+.

So, this means that those of us with Commercial Free subs, won't be Commercial Free, unless we wait till after the show is over ?
Which would make same day, not that big of a deal.

Paramount+ has always had the CBS shows on the CBS local channel and yes with commercials. What they are doing now is releasing the OnDemand versions of the show which I believe they don't release until after the shows air on the west coast. And they will be commercial free if you subscribe to the ad free version of Paramount+.

So, the New season won't be on the same day commercial free ???

Looks like the On Demand will Still be the Next Day ...

Watching it on the CBS local on Paramount+ is the exact same as watching it on your CBS local on your current cable/satellite/mvpd/vMVPD service. The OnDemand versions of it can be released on the same day that it airs but usually it is after the show airs on the west coast so if you have a show at 7:00 pm in your time zone and it airs 3 hours later on the west coast at 10:00 pm your time then they could release it at 11:00 pm your time if it was a one hour show. I really have not checked to see what time I can see the ad free OnDemand shows on Paramount+. I know today that last nights FBI and CIA show did not pop into the Up Next row on my Apple TV until this afternoon. I guess it may have been in Paramount+ since last night but I never checked it.

For niche use cases, yes I agree. Kali for ethical hacking and security testing, and running a Cacti server for network monitoring are the two things I have experience in. Plus thousands and thousands of other things, but for every day use I just can't see it. The owner of the GMRS repeater that I pay to access is changing the Tx DPL tones tomorrow, while Chirp is available on Linux, the software to program my MXT500 is not.

I run Fedora and Ubuntu in VMWare, honestly I don't care much for the UI of either of them and I don't feel like spending days/weeks to customize the UI to make it look Windows-like when I could just use Windows. The cartoonish dock at the bottom of the screen reminds me of Apple products.

What is so fantabulous about the Windows UI? By many accounts, it has been going downhill since Windows 7.

There are Linux desktops that offer Windows or Mac UIs, yet you don't hear much chatter about them outside of questions about when the creators might get sued.

Because it's what I prefer. I know I've said this a few times, I use Open Shell to give me the cascading start menu a la WIN 95 and NT4.0. The only reason I went from Windows Vista to 7 back in the day was because of Classic Shell. I cannot stand anything other than the OG start menu from 30+ years ago. I'm using ExplorerPatcher to give me Windows 10 UI elements of the taskbar and right click context menus.

If you could take a look at how I set up Windows 95, you'd find many similarities to how I use 11.

I could probably use that as a starting point, but I don't like the full size icons. If you have to click on each folder that's also a no-go for me, it has to be cascading.

I used to have Peppermint Linux in a VM, that was about as close as I could get to recreating a Windows NT4.0 style of menu structure, but I could never get it to scale properly in VMWare on a 4K display and eventually gave up.

Whatever the boot up time it's fine with me. The longest part of my bootup is the HP SureStart BIOS integrity check. Once that is done, it's only a few more seconds. I haven't done this reg tweak yet since the reformat, but I switched the bootup animation to the Windows 10 style spinning circle of dots, and it's two and a half rotations. I can live with that.

I hope you don't believe that makes it wonderful (especially when you're using workarounds for Microsoft's malfeasance).

I use LibreOffice as opposed to Microsoft office (even in Windows) because it's UI is like the Office of old, so I'm putting my money where my mouth is (in a manner of speaking). The ribbon was one of the worst ideas to come out Redmond.

Song Name Game Part 3!

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!

So let the game continue!

The last song was added by Bobby who posted...

One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters

CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!

Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game

Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.

Example:

Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow

Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio

Another example:

Ride the Lightning -- Metallica

Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne

Get it?

An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

I purchased the Joey 4 from Solid Signal and shipping box has Call 866 726-4282 to Avtivate new Receiver. That number is Solid Signals number.
I googled and that search said call Dish to activate. I assume that is correct unless this requires a 2 step process.

Solid signal has provided the wrong number on their website to activate Dish boxes for years now.

I don't know if things are different with Dish but when I first rejoined DirecTV a few years ago Solid Signal was able to create my account and activate the equipment I got from them on a self-install without a truck roll.

Help, I'm a little confjused on the activation process.
I purchased the Joey 4 from Solid Signal and shipping box has Call 866 726-4282 to Avtivate new Receiver. That number is Solid Signals number.
I googled and that search said call Dish to activate. I assume that is correct unless this requires a 2 step process.
Please let me know.
Thanks

just call dish and iggy the number from solid signal!!
