Second time this month the internet is out. Price gouging for garbage service at its finest. We had wow before rcn bought them out and has been a devastating downgrade in service.

I cannot watch movies because I am too far from ATT's "node". When I try to watch a Viedo it get intrupted a few dozen times with the running circle as it is loading. Except for this shortcomming my general service from ATT has be excellent.
