Like or dislike? I believe comcast and I have run our course and it's time for me to move on. Opinions and recommendations appreciated

Internet is a little slow, but overall I like it a lot.
The HD is 1080i instead of 1080p, but I can't tell a difference

I had Uverse installed back around November last year.
They had to come out 5 times to finally get it right.(although I was the first one in that area to get it installed on newly laid lines)
The TV portion is ok as long as your internet part is working correctly.
One of my main issues after the install bugs was worked out was their shitty 2wire router losing its wireless capabilities at random times(affecting TV as well). It was finally resolved by installing a LAN switch in between the main 2wire router and the kids wireless router. It seems their routers like to work alone.

Had it in Tuscaloosa, loved it. Internet is 15ish mb/s down and 2 mb/s up or so, which is plenty unless you're anal about speeds.

Hate uverse net. Ping is 70-100ms more than regular net and very expensive. I have no other choice where I live.

I've had UVerse for 4 years now in at 3 different homes in 2 different states and have never had an outage.
It's the tits.

Never had it but you will be settling for less. It boils down to bandwidth; cable has more while 2-wire phone lines/AT&T has less. Only thing superior to cable is fiber and it is only available is select cities. I have had Cox Cable here in GA for many years and the internet and TV performance has been and still is excellent. Just did a speed test at speedtest.net and got a 12ms ping and 32.63 Mbps download: LINK

Had it for awhile before I moved, had some initial problems with it disconnecting randomly but after several calls to AT&T and 3 technicians coming out it was finally fixed. Never had another issue with it after that honestly

I love Uverse, never goes out or has any issues.

Don't sign up for any of their free for 6 months deals. Takes two years to get out of them. Expensive compared to other services.

Used U-verse for four years...no problems with signal or service but... If you bundle you gotta watch your bill like a frickin' hawk. Lotta strange charges pop up, & they are ATT charges, not some weird shite... dunno

I have Uverse here in oxford. Its stupid cheap compared to the local cable company. I have been pleased overall, took for ever to have it installed in the house I'm living in. I have the highest internet speed they offer (18mps I think) and my roommates and I are always playing xbox or streaming netflix at the same time and the speed is still good.

I have U-Verse for internet service but DirecTv for tv service. I live in Northport and I have the U-Verse 2 wire wireless router. I haven't experienced any internet outages.
This is a speed test I just did from my iPhone 5. Upload speed isn't great but the Download speed is good to me. I don't have a lot of complaints on iit. I am on my iPhone, iPad, and laptop a good bit as is my wife and I don't notice any serious lag. I also can do some gaming on the PS3 with no problems. I also have a wireless lighting system that requires the main repeater to be plugged intoy router so that's phone and iPad will connect to it and I have no problems.
All in all I like U-Verse and will be switching to the U-Verse tv service as sook as my DirecTv runs out in July.
