To preface I switched from Comcast to U-Verse early January of this year. The initial reason was to save a few bucks and att had some nice cash back incentives to switch at that time. However I'm now seriously regretting that decision. According to the uv realtime app and looking out my window I'm a few hundred feet away from the vrad. On paper it all looked good so I signed up for the u300 tv package and max plus internet and aside from a slight hiccup the initial install went though just fine. When initially installed my living room tv was a 39" Vizio LCD. I immediately noticed a degradation in HD quality compared to Comcast (some channels more than others). It was still satisfactory I suppose but there was a marked difference for sure. The biggest tv in my home at that time was that 39" the other two being 32" lcd's in bedrooms. So a few weeks ago I purchased a 60" LED tv which really magnifies the issues to the point I'm so dissatisfied with the pq I'd be willing to pay the etf fee to get out of contract. Streaming netflix even at 4xx SD looks better than a vast majority of the U-Verse HD channels that are broadcasting according to my tv at 720p. Watching blu-rays or 1080p youtube videos are beyond amazing. Is there anything at all I can do or is this all that is to be expected? To give an fyi, I recorded The Walking Dead on the AMC HD channel last night. Today I sat down to watch it and the picture in dark scenes was so blocky it was pathetic.
