[NTLUG:Discuss] AT&T@Home redux

[MadHat]

I am wondering if there is something new they (AT&T) are setting up with 
new neighborhoods.  I keep hearing about this, but have never had this 
problem with my cable modem and have yet to actually see this happen in 
person.

NOTE: I am not saying this isn't a real issue, just saying I haven't seen 
it first hand.

Which cable modem is being used there?
I heard talk that some places are getting upgraded to the Cisco (don't 
remember the model) instead of, or from the Motorola (don't remember this 
model either).
