Thanks for the info.  I'm actually with DirecTV.  The AT&T UVerse folks
came peddling their stuff but the TV portion didn't offer any advantages 
over
what I'm doing now as I would still need STBs.  But I was able to get a 
great
speed connection (quiet you FIOS people ;) for 10M down and 1.5 up.  That
is why I have the sbc ties.

Thanks again for the info.
