[TriLUG] U-Verse for us

[James Jones]

Brian,

About four months ago, I left time warner business class service and moved
all my servers to the cloud.

For a home internet service, I decided on Uverse. It works well as a home
service, It took a little work just to set up an ssh client & server on my
linux box, setting up my Vonage phone service was a piece of cake! Their
setup to me isn't "standard" but works.

I include the TV service as well which I didn't believe would work, but has
been a gem.

If you decide to get Uverse, I hope that you end up with the installer I
had. Most efficient and made every effort to make it work -- to the point
of having them dig up the street to disconnect an open line connected to my
incoming line.
