Ever since AT&T took over my bill is never the same for each month. But I can’t stream because of low speed, high drag, internet service at my location thanks to CenturyLink DSL.
ATT has a U-Verse for copper wire delivery.
Our DSL was running around 3mps; changed to U-Verse over copper and it comes in around 12-13 which is good enough for streaming.
Then my son loves to call and tell me he’s getting 131mps over cable.
DirecTV was once one of my favorite companies. Since ATT took over, the friendly web site interface is gone and customer service now sucks as bad as any other place. It’s a shame.
If you deal with AT&T you should know you’re being screwed. It has taken 30 years or more for the “baby Bells” to “recreate” the Old AT&T that Judge Harold Greene broke up.
We have like 120 channels and only about 20 channels worth watching. All the others are spanish language/infomercials/religious/QVC types. I mean, there are channels like: Puppy pooping in the house? Plays over and over. Get rid of Crepe skin, Carol Burnett show dvd box set sales...on and on. Crap channels.
$85 bucks a month. Thought DirectTV would be an alternative till I did the research. Their cheapest channel is like a $105 a month with first year discounted but requires AT&T Wireless service.

I’m moving to a new area where CenturyLink is one of the providers for tv/telephone/internet. Based upon your experience, should I try Directtv internet service instead of Centurylink?
