multiroom dvr would sure be nice, moving for the 3 screen objective, what about watching dvr recordings on your cell?

Any know if they plan to offer a Multiroom DVR soon?

Isn’t that what they are calling WHDVR?  We can watch or record from the one DVR, via any STB?

i think the punch line is.. total home dvr.. watch what you want,when you want,wherre you want. hehe.

i think the multi room dvr would be nice but whats the point? uverse has a feature called “stream management”. meaning it allows only 4 live stream of video on your home. so that pretty much limits it. but still compare with anything that is out there right now..uverse is still amazing.

I wonder when att is going to start doing vdsl2 having two wire pairs coming to your house doubling your speed from 25mb to 50mb and upload from 1mg to 2mg

Fiber is very expensive to implement, the fiber it self is cheaper than copper but the equipment to run it totally outrageous on cost. when you can deliver and almost equal product over the cat3 that is already in place at a 1/4 of the cost. verison fIOS service they spent in the billions of billions of billions of dollars to put fiber to all houses, and yes they are ahead of att on the fiber part but what att spent to have the same thing makes up for it.

if they used 2 pairs to your house having 2 paths for up and download would double the speed from 25mb to 50mb on the download and 2mb to 4mb on the upload

this would allow 4hd and 8sd streams over the line and some killer internet speeds probably up in the 40mb a sec on the d/L side.

The actual limit of the technology is actually more around 56 Mbps.  You are throttled back to a total of 24 Mbps (25216 Kbps) per account.  I have seen instances where you could order more than one package for your home, if you had more than 8 tv's you wanted to install on the service.  Then you would get another line installed over your secondary pair at the NID (primary-blue/secondary-orange)

FTTP can handle much more than 100 Mbps but I was quoting the figures given to me in Uverse school and some of the numbers on my testing equipment.  I am a Uverse installation tech.  FTTX is the most common type of installation and I am pretty sure thats where the 56 Mbps comes into play.
