I cancelled my basic ATT DSl service (not with Sonic) a little over a month ago ($14.95 promo rate was expiring). I tried resigning up for plain vanilla Elite DSL through ATT at their advertised promo rate for new customers (ATT defines 'new' if you've been without internet service for 30 days) but was told DSL was no longer available for my address. ATT said I can only get UVerse-internet or dial-up access now. I don't want Uverse because it costs more than regular DSL for the same Mbps and they want me to shell out another $100 for a new Uverse modem/wireless gateway with no offers of a rebate to help defray the costs of new equipment. I see some people on this board received a letter offering free Uverse equipment with a forced upgrade to Uverse in San Jose. I never received such an offer even though I was with ATT. I've already invested $100 in a DSL modem/gateway, so I'm looking for alternative options to get traditional DSL. Can Sonic provide the ATT DSL service I'm seeking?
I checked my ATT landline phone number on the Sonic website, and it said I can't get Fusion. They can only order ATT DSL service for my address. That's fine with me, because that's what I'm seeking. If I can get plain vanilla ATT DSL through Sonic, can I use the dsl modem/router I was using while with ATT? Or do I have to buy a new modem/router to work with Sonic?
