Just to clarify my previous post, you can watch everything that’s on the DVR from any room in the house. On the TV’s not hooked up to the DVR, you can only watch recorded items or watch live TV, but you won’t be able to pause the live feed.

You can record the show and then manipulate it that way, but it’s still a pain.

We switched from TW to U-Verse and haven’t looked back since. I ended up paying a bit more as I had negotiated a great deal with Time Warner, but we love all the additional channels and options.

My major complaint with the service is that you can only pause live TV on one DVR; every other TV in the house has to watch live TV with no way to rewind or watch the recorded items on the DVR. If U-Verse could fix this and let all the TV’s pause live TV it would be perfect.

I’m in the Chaparral area and haven’t had any signal or quality issues.

We like Uverse. At first the sports in HD was coming in pixely but I called them up and they opened up some port and it was fixed. Glad to be off Time Warner for now.

Any more information about UVerse quality? I’m in the Headlands and am thinking about switching to UVerse when I get a new HDTV. I currently have Dish (standard def), and could just upgrade to an HD receiver for that if no one has anything nice to say about HD and UVerse.

The No Solicitation sign at the bottom of the message board is useless if there’s not one at the other entrance. That’s not to say it wouldn’t still be ignored, but at least they can’t use the “there was no sign” excuse.

Having been waiting in Canyon Glen for UVerse, have heard it is in other parts of Steiner. Will immediately switch if the Fibre distance is in good range. Have great connection with 3G iPhone and ATT at home and most places in Steiner. Only issue is dead spot on 620 going north uphill to Comanche Trail, but have gotten used to that one…

The Steiner Ranch message board has a No Solicitation sign built into the bottom. It’s always been there, but doesn’t work if it’s ignored.

Years ago we used to have a no solicitation sign at the front of the neighborhood. I don’t know why they took it down, but I sure wish they would put it back up!

My husband has an iPhone (AT&T) and has had no reception issues (we are in Rocky Ridge).

The Jehovah’s Witnesses used to come here all the time, but we haven’t seen them in a while. I thought that maybe they had just gotten the hint.

I also heard a rumor that if Steiner Ranch would just put No Solicitation signs at the entrances, then they could actually enforce that rule. But since they aren’t there, people can technically solicit since there is not sign telling them not to. Don’t know if that’s true or not, but putting No Solicitation signs at the entrances certainly couldn’t hurt.

I use my iPhone in the Headlands and I have TERRIBLE reception. I work from home and use that phone all day and drop at least 5 or 6 a day. It does come in handy when my Mother In Law starts blathering on. I just hang up and blame it on ATT later. There’s always a silver lining…
