Hello jennhrobinson, another major factor that determines the availability is distance from your home to the VRAD (cabinet that delivers service)

To support a 32/5 profile, maximum distance from the VRAD  is 2200ft. Your current distance is recorded at approximately 2500ft. Although your Max User rates are great on your current profile, a change could lead to services being degraded. I have sent you a private message to discuss some options and further assist you.

If you encounter any issues with your service or equipment, I recommend checking out our Troubleshoot & Resolve solutions to help diagnose the issue.

You will need to log in to your AT&T router and see what your Max User Rate is.  To log in go to 192.168.1.254 and then click on Broadband.  Scroll down until you see this:

DSL Details

Modem TypeBuilt in modem - VDSL

Max User Rate46571 kbsNot Available

Attenuation15.5 dBNot Available
Output Power14.3 dBm                               -9.5 dBm

You can see in mine above its 46571kbs and my user rate is 32200/4792.  I have the 0/4HD profile.

Post back with your Max user rate and we can see if you can get the correct profile for 0/4HD

A better question to ask is when the heck am I going to be getting 6 or more streams.  I heard a lot of talk about that it was supposed to be coming this summer.  This summer is over - never happened.  In my neighborhood, U-Verse service is no longer competitive with the other providers.  They all offer more than 4 streams now, DirecTV, Dish, Comcast & Wow.  What happened.

I've been hearing that too.  Doesn't sound like anytime soon.  Daughter (who lives down the street) was installed this spring and the installer said "late summer" for 7 streams.  Cough. 

 

Others have seemed to catch up to the once unsurmountable technology edge that UV had.  I think that I have the max rate for the switch to 0SD/4HD but the VRAD distance is over 2500', AFAIK.

That sucks - get with it U-Verse, you are becoming a dinosaur.

 

That being said, my line has plenty of capacity left and I'm 1200' from the VRAD.   Where are my 7 streams? Smiley Mad

You are already on the 32/5 line profile.  Your WAN Profile is 1 SD/3 HD not 0 SD/ 4 HD?

My WAN is 0 SD/4 HD but my Ingress is 1 SD / 3 HD, isn't the Ingress the one that is to have changed?

WAN and Ingress should both be 0SD/4HD.

Don't mess with old people.  The older we get, the less "Life in Prison" is a deterrent.

Only in markets where U-verse has released the 0 SD/4 HD Ingress Profile.  The only markets where I have seen it reported are the Dallas market and the Austin market.
