General Discussion / Re: The Big Day event, switching to U-verse.
« on: March 23, 2009, 02:19:42 pm »
Well, I found out a few things and it should clear up from now on.
One I was ok with, the other bothered me on how they did it.
The Lady who set up my account at the beginning was "suppose" to inform me of the first bill dual amount. She may have, but I don't recall it.
Because the Combined bill was higher Dollar amount Uncle Sammy got a bigger chunk of the so call "Surcharges" by percentage calculating. That hit me for more than $35.
She said when I got the next bill, because the total bill will be half what it is now then the Surcharge will be in the $15 range.
So chalk it up for Our Goverment's Taxing system. (lets leave it at that
What DID bother me was in order to get me the credit for the two addtional recievers they had to put a credit on the U-300 channel package. Apparently they cannot credit receiver fees
It's fuzzy math that's all
Talk about luck, the Lady I spoke to today was here IN Jacksonville AND lives about a mile form my house.
How freaky is that
All is well in the U-verse land again.

General Discussion / switching to U-verse. The Bill!
« on: March 22, 2009, 09:54:46 am »
OOPS.. Duh U-verse Honeymoon is over,
We got the First bill and it was all screwed up. Nothing about the discounts and something someone forget to mention was that they will double bill your first bill.
They bill you for the "Past" month services and then The "Prorate" the next month bill.
That would have been nice to know because we already had to pay off Comcast and Moneys isn't flowing like a water fountain around here.
But that wasn't the kicker.
ALL though out the Switching process, "EVERYONE" in the system knew what services I was getting and how much I was paying.
Obviously someone forget to let the Billing department know
So.. I'll be on the phone tomorrow trying to get that straigened out.
As of the current bill I'm paying out more than I did with Concast.
Those in the Know needs to let yjosr who "Need" to know that this isn't good "Promo" image they want to have.
I know it will get straigened out, But I shouldn't have to call in to straigten "Their" screw up.
Because If I was living pay check to paycheck then They would have had the first cancelation from me due to "Unpaid" bill.
As for the service itself.. I Love it and it's been trouble free with the exception of the minor e-mail problem we had a couple weeks ago. But The lady from AT&T got that resolved and no problem since.

Well, the move was complete, some minor changes which were for the better anyway.
Got the gateway on the second shelf from the floor on the left side pf my old computer desk and the battery back up still on the floor but on the right side in the cubby hole.
I do have one question, the cables for the data and the power cord going to the gateway are mixed together, shouldn't they be separated somewhat?
I'll get some updated pictures when I get a chance

Uhum.. I don't think I'll get up at 4 am to say "I witness that"
But it is nice to know that, wonder if Microsoft is prepared to release an update to be prepared for that. ROTFLOL!

Oh I intend to mark them "properly when I figure out which one was which. I'm pretty sure.. but I want to "Make" sure before marking.
I write everything down on a note pad and stick it in a File Folder we call "AT&T U-Verse"
Brilliant isn't it
Now to start shuffling stuff around so I can park My Computer Desk where I want it.

WHOA!!! 
I'm glad I did it the way I did and wrote how it was hooked up on back og the gateway.
You recall I said the Data cable was labled. But because the Data and phone cables are Identical and were hidden behind the book case I didn't see what I do now.
BOTH data cables are marked Data Cable.
Just on opposit ends.
A closer look at the data tag shows a hand scribbled writing I can make out.
But I did hook it "exactly" like it was before.
Everything is back up and running.
But my curiousty is going to be which data line is the feeder to the gate way and which one is the outgoing for the phones.
They should have a clearly marked line saying something like "Incoming Data" and Outgoing to phones
But It don't matter, I can now move the gateway AND the battery back up around with out having to unplug any of it again.
OK.. Back to spring cleaning

Rearranging start today (as soon as the recording(s) are done )
I'm going to do it while Duh wifey is out and about.
I see now why the techie put the gateway where he did, The broadband cable wasn't long enough to freely place.
But it's long enough to do what we decided above

Belkin.. Was that from AT&T..
Well.. it sure wasn't a Belkings guy that set all that up
Quote from: dannjr
No the way I saw one of the file cabinets it looked like a small tower speaker After further review it looks like a cabinet
Ah.. the freebie 2 drawer filing cabinets, Came free when we bought the Computer desk. They are as cheap as the look
Quote from: dannjr
Anyway try to move the belkin as they get older.. UPS's get older they make a little niose trying to keep the battery charged.. Remember batteries in them things if there lithium they go bad after 3 years.. NiHcad last longer.. lot longer with longer up times when the powers out. they can also last longer.
The Battery companies need to stop producing lithium.. theyre dirtier in the long run
No mention of wether it's a lithium or NiHcad, so probally a lithium
I'll try to remember the moving.
Waiting on your answer to my PM.. I'm dealing with it now as I clean the Master bedroom.

No.. no speakers in there, you must be seeing the battery backs up pack?
Under the plan I have, the two Book cases will be moved to where my computer desk is now. Then we'll thin out all that junk piled up on it.

after reading you response about the location of the gateway, I can put it on the left side bottom shelf, I'd have to take the back panel off to improve air circulation. But that's no biggy.
My calculations are there will be a gape between my computer desk and the black filing cabinet you see on the floor (there is two, one will be moved) on the left side of Duh wifeys computer desk.
OK.. Your Turn!

Next is the current shelf set up, if you look closely, you can see the gateway, the Battery back up on the floor and then the wall outlet the incoming data and outline for the IP phone is at.
