Slightly OT:U-Verse

Hi everyone.

I just decided teo re-arrange my TV/phone/Internet stuff, and ordered AT&T Uverse, and was assured three times that I can keep my present block of static IP addresses I have with my Business HSI Elite-S DSL plan. I have read online many horror stories related to this service and I'm curious if anyone out there in app_rpt land is using the multiple static IP U-Verse service with APP_RPT or anything else.

If it all works well the speed improvement will be pretty significant up to 24MB down/3MB up. Present plan is 6MB down, 768KBPS up, and I run name mail and web servers and a VPN to another house, plus node 2360.

Can let you know for sure tomorrow as I am installing a new repeater site( Node 28270,28271 and 28272 ). and we got U-Verse installed with a static block week or so ago.. I tested the static block with my laptop and they worked fine..…. But we are installing the repeater and app_rpt based controller here tomorrow.. But have no reason to think it won't work as I already verified the static address group in the uverse… Now all we got was internet.. No sense in paying for TV for the rooftop location.. not sure if that would make a difference… but it is a UVerse gateway just like I had at my apartment for TV when I lived there.

George,
I have U-Verse with static IP's at one of my locations. The "static" ip's are programmed and assigned by the "residential gateway". The service has been very stable and works great. Programming the gateway is a pain in the @$$.

You don't assign the devices a static, they MUST dhcp the static from the gateway. I was an early adopter of their static IP service and it was not fun to get the information from U-Verse when I did it. (they were clueless how to program it).

(BTW - Jim Reese had it at his old house, I don't know what he is using now.)

I have a static block of 6 and have had no issues at all. In fact that is what runs the FLA HUB. It has been rock solid. I also work for AT&T so if anyone has issues and have exhausted the normal course of filing trouble tickets etc get with me.

Thanks Lu

Mark 5EVE talked me off the ledge earlier, though I figure I’ll not be able t host my web server, name server, etc for a few days. Most people say it takes three or four visits to get someone out who knows what’s going on. I may offload my web…or more specifically my mail server/DNS to a cheap month by mo0nth hosting service till I get it all working. I had been assured that I get to keep my existing block of addresses with my AT&T DSL, but that’s not looking like its a true statement.

But thanks for the help. The “it’s gonna be ok” ones are outnumbering the “nightmare from hell” comments at this point.
