Local PEG Access channels have long been available through cable television. Recently, AT&T started offering its U-verse video service using a very different technology from traditional cable service to deliver community channels. If you are considering subscribing to AT&T’s U-verse service, you should be aware that finding your city council meeting or a high school football game on your local PEG channels will be different.
This video, Important Information about AT&T U-verse System , demonstrates how one finds and accesses PEG channels using an actual U-verse customer system. Note: According to a recent consumer test conducted on 12/12/2008, the video demonstration fairly approximates the AT&T U-verse PEG access experience. Actual access time may vary slightly depending upon the time of day and the amount of internet traffic.
We hope that you find the information contained in this video demonstration on accessing AT&T’s U-verse PEG channels informative.
