But they did say that no one can get it by request and they won't be doing it again...at least for now.

More IS possible...I have 5 SD and can record 5 shows at once. Apparently it was some fluke experiment...but I don't have HD, so I'm sure that complicates things; maybe one day!It wasn't an experiment. It was an accident made by whoever processed your initial order. For you its a good thing as long as you never try to upgrade to HD.Nobody can request 5 streams though.

I sure can see where folks with families will have a problem with only the 4 SD/2 HD streams available. Fortunately we no longer have kids at home and this particular limit doesn't really affect us.....at least....not so far. But when more and more HD channel become available OR (wishful thinkgin) we switch to ALL HD AT&T will have to increase the number of available streams, IMHO.

Yeah I hope your wrong for a number of reasons... But when compared to what other providers are doing in the area its hard to imagine that AT&T would leave everything as is..
Time Warner is offering faster internet for the same price as I'm paying for the AT&T max connection, The county I live in is mixed right now, Half AT&T and half Verizon.. Don't get me wrong, I love uverse and have had it for a little over a month but where I live is very tech savvy and AT&T has pretty good packages now, Come the first of the year... Things will be completely different here.
But you may be right. I can walk down to the VRAD and still get really strong wifi signal on my iPhone.. So who knows what their plans are for pair bonding... One of the things I would like to see them do is move to the iNID so I can get the RG out of my living room...

I ran into this On Monday. I was actually using all 4 streams and we only have 2 TV's in the house. Wife had a couple of shows she wanted, and I had shows I wanted. For 3 hours all streams were benig used(from 7-10pm central)
With the new TV seasons starting, we'll see how Uverse holds up cause they moved a lot of my shows to the same days now causing confilct.

I think a guestimate is good enough anyway.
I don't suppose living in an apt would make a difference, would it? I have no idea where our NID is even at...in the utility room, most likely.
we need chris to post his (specs)
| yours Current Attenuation: | 25.6 dB | Not Available |
if his is 12.8 db (his is 1/2) u would be at 1020 ft (example purposes only) he is prolly at 7.* or so
so we can factor it into 510 feet then apply that to your situation ... simple 
walla an estimate .... and yes u are on the 3rd floor ??? so u have a run from the nid to u and the nid is on one end of your apt ???
the maint guy can tell u where the nid is i bet ???
clear as mud right ??

my distance is unknown so i cant help ya (i think im about 1000' + or -
chris knows his is 510' right ?? so in that light chris is prolly around 7.5 attenuation if theory is true ...
so to further wild a** guess u are least around 2000' or more ..
