I'm currently using 3mbps DSL and got a notice that I can upgrade to 6mbps uverse finally (I live in the boondocks).
Saturday evening I went through the process online and they wanted me to buy a modem for $100. I cancelled what I was doing and looked around for a way to use my existing equipment. I discovered that uverse is a different kind of DSL (maybe? IDK) and that i'd have to get a new modem anyway. So I resigned my self to buying a new modem, but when I went back to the AT&T website the only option I get is paying $7/mo to rent a gateway. There's no way i'm paying money to lease equipment, so is there some way to get the old offer back (paying $100 for the gateway instead of the $7/mo?) I've tried different browsers and made sure that i'm selecting Internet only.
I really don't want to have to call them up, because it always takes at least an hour and 5 transfers before they tell you there's nothing they can do.
