Mike,
I have this AT&T U-Verse service and I love it.
I have Fedora8, an XP, winServer2003 and  2 MACs all wireless and I have no problem with  the 2Wire AccessPoint.
You may have to use winXP to get into the AccessPoint/Gateway/router.
As I have not tried to use the Linux box, but it shld work as its web based or html. Get the URL and Ip Add from the installer.
It shld also work as a LAN ethernet connection.
I plan to connect the win2003 server directly (ethernet) to the gateway/router this wkend. If that works than connecting my Fedora8 shld fly as well.

Let me know what you find.
The installer I had was very helpful. he spent 4 hours hooking everything up, including the BOSE system, even tying up loose wiring very neatly, 

>>is it static/dynamic, ---DHCP
>> how many IPs, --DHCP/NAT
>> does it allow traffic shaping,  --- its a router/gateway
>>could I run my own VOIP service, etc.? -- Unknown Probably not  ...but I do use MagicJack (VOIP) with no problem

hope that was helpful

Hi all,

I've been offered AT&T's U-Verse television/internet service but have been told that it's Windows only (which sounds nonsensical to me; they said the same thing about my DSL service).

I've scoured the net looking for information about the gateway device but have come up empty handed.  I think it would be a 3700HGV-B but am not certain.  I'd really like to see a user's manual.

I'm in San Jose, California.  Is there anybody in this area that has this service and that would be able to comment on it, especially wrt its IP scheme?  I.e. is it static/dynamic, how many IPs, does it allow traffic shaping, could I run my own VOIP service, etc.?

I need to find out before my 3 day right of recission expires.

Sorry for the additional noise on the list.

Thanks in advance,
Mike Wright :m)
