I am getting mailings from AT&T which seem to suggest I can do the following if I add DirecTV service:

1. Get the Select package for $50 per month (presumably plus taxes), which includes a Genie and a Genie Mini.
2. Have a 24 month price lock.
3. Get an "unlimited" data plan for our phones. (throttled after 22GB)
4. Save an additional $10 per month on my wireless bill.
5. Get a $200 Visa pre-paid debit card.

My questions:

1. Can I actually combine all of these deals?
2. I also have a FAN on my wireless account. Would that still apply?

Thanks!

I have a question that I hope is directly related to this thread.
I already have Directv and AT&T wireless. I'm about to add home wireless telephone to this.
I've tried searching here and on both those websites, but can't seem to figure out how to bundle the tv and wireless. While on phone with cell provider, the rep said things weren't "finalized" and he had no idea. I won't be adding internet thru Uverse as iirc I'm a ways away from the telco if Uverse is actually dsl. I use the internet to stream movies, youtube, etc. and I don't think it would be quick enough.
Can someone help with this? Can a customer already receiving both tv and wireless get them to bundle and maybe save a few $$. Does adding home wireless help in that regard?
Thanks,
Bob

Yes you can ... I would call the main ATT number and talk to them. (not sure what dept it would be though)
You'll only need D* and 1 att item, so that shouldn't be a problem.
You say you have ATT wireless, if your talking about Cell you should be good.

Try this number.

Well, I pulled the trigger on the deal. I did not qualify for the $200 gift card for some reason they could not adequately explain. Something about being a DirecTV customer before, but it has been over 4 years, so I wouldn't have thought that would apply. Anyway, my new bill for Select + two wireless lines with unlimited data will be ~$200/month. I've already been using the DirecTV anywhere app to stream live TV, even though my install doesn't happen until Friday, so that is pretty cool. Now we just need to finish watching all of the recorded shows on our Tivo, so I can cancel that and Hulu.

I've got the installer coming to the beach house tomorrow to, sick of Comcast and their price hikes and still puling channels off of basic. Well the main reason is no Yankee games. Suck it Comcast. Although I still need them for internet I can do without them for cable service. The bundle and DTV 2 year savings are more than worth it.

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'm getting fabulous picture on Ch. 148 4k, but zero audio with H713. This is with a recorded show (Notre Dame game). Anyone else have this? Audio is fine on every other channel.

It's a known issue.
For a temporary fix, go into the menu, Audio, and turn Dolby Audio "OFF". You will have PCM stereo audio.

I was able to give the tech ops team some data logs so they could diagnose the problem, and they rolled me back to H708 temporarily. It fixed that issue.

They let me know that they understand what caused the issue, and it will be fixed within a few weeks in a new update.

I guess they will be busy when lots of people start asking for rollbacks to H708 now that you mention that downgrades of software does exist because it will likely fix the OTA Single Tuner and the IR Remote problems in H710-H713.

Stargate SG-1 cancelled, Atlantis renewed

Monday - August 21, 2006 | by Darren Sumner

The future of Stargate is in question today, as SCI FI Channel has cancelled the long-running Stargate SG-1, Multichannel News reported today and a GateWorld source has confirmed. The news regrettably follows the airing of the show's milestone two-hundredth episode on Friday.

Stargate Atlantis, meanwhile, has been renewed for a fourth season, with the network hoping to see that the spin-off series can stand alone, according to a source.

I have gotten back into watching SG-1 and I have recorded most of the episodes to binge watch. What episodes are about the Antarctic or was this a movie? Also where could I watch the SG-1 movies?

Well, there are a couple involving the Antarctic. "Solitudes", S1 E17 (one of my favorites), Then, "Lost City', S7 E21 and E22. Then, in the SGA pilot, "Rising", S1 E1 and E2, it starts out in the Antarctic for about the first 20 minutes or so.

Which one has O'Neil being Ancients? I am at the end of Season 8 now.

If I understand your question, O'Neill had the Ancient's knowledge in the "Lost City" two-part episode. That was when Anubis attacked Earth and there was a big battle over Antarctica.

Really excited for this season with Kentucky having a new coach and some really exciting recruits. Probably won't last long, but here's hoping this season is great.
