Att Uverse and Roku

so when i go to lifetime on roku and it gives me a code so I can unlock a show or movie by going online at the mylifetime.com/activate and it tells me to pick my tv provider.... who do i choose because i dont see att or uverse on the list.

This is kind of complicated. Do you know if Roku is supposed to include access to the various content.
What I am trying to say is watching streaming requires two things - physical access such as a computer or Roku and authorized access, such as asking your provider.
I am thinking that Roku is supposed to provide both because people had Roku long before cable providers started offering streaming.
Do you have a Roku choice when it asks for a provider. You can also follow up with Roku.
You can access uverse.com via a browser on a computer & find lifetime there. But Roku does not have a browser?? You could connect your computer to display on your TV.
Maybe someone who has Roku with u-verse can straighten this out. The problem is people without problems do not visit the forum.
I loked at the Roku site & see that they do have free, pay (like netflix) & networks that can be tied to cable provider. They say check the network for how to get access.
I looked at lifetime & do not see anything about Roku. It does say, sign in for a free trial.
Not easy to put the pieces together.

Att Uverse and new Apple TV

So I just got Apple TV in the mail today. I was all ready to see what it was all about before I realized that I didnt have the cords to make all the connections. I do have a HDTV with 1 extra HDMI port open. I also have ATT uverse. I heard there was a lot of problems with Uverse. I have TV and Internet with Uverse connected by coaxial cable.
What cords do I need? I know I need a HDMI cable, but would I need an ethernet cable? Would it work better being connected to ethernet? Do I need an optical digital audio cable? Im not even sure what that is. Thanks for help

While I have a PC, I went through exactly the same problem you are having. No matter what I did, I could not get it to see the device. After clicking on pretty much every possible link, I found a message stating iTunes could not see Apple TV because the Bonjour service was not enabled. Only problem was ... there is nowhere to enable Bonjour + searching for this word through Apple's help had no results. It wasn't until I Googled it that I found a link to download the program (which the book never mentions by the way). The link ironically leads back to Apple's site. Once downloaded, it saw it immediately and worked fine. While a Mac is configured different, it sounds like you need the Mac version of this software.

I have a 13 in. Macbook pro and i recently got ATT Uverse and it won't let me into secure sites. Help please!

Hi, so i just installed ATT Uverse internet and on my macbook pro, it wont let me go to sites like facebook, twitter, youtube login and even google. It just goes to website unavailable but on other non secure sites, its fine. The guy said theres a security issues where you have to contact apple to fix it. Anyone experiemce this or can help me?

it sounds like you should be in the MacBook Pro discussion group

ATT Uverse and TC - wireless G vs N

Hello all,
I have the typical 2-wire ATT wireless G modem/router and recently purchased a time capsule. I have an older house that has qutie a bit of stone, and I have found that penetration of the wireless G signal from the ATT/Uverse router has been quite poor in my home. I've bugged ATT about this a ton, but they still claim to not offer any wireless N devices.
With the purchase of my TC, I have had the idea of perhaps creating a 2nd network with the TC that would allow me to take advantage of the wireless N connectivity thoughout my home. Currently, I have the TC connected via an ethernet cable from the WAN connector to the 2wire modem/router. My IT director at work suggested that I use the TC to create a separate network with the TC that broadcasts wireless N and I could "ignore" the wireless G signal this way. However, after doing this, I am getting a double NAT warning, although both networks seem to be functioning at the moment. However, the wireless G network oddly enough seems to have better signal at the moment.
My settings are below, but I am wondering if anyone has a good solution to my problem. Thanks.

If in Bridge mode, I'll be using the ATT/Uverse router's wireless network but I'll be able to use the wireless N frequencies transmitted by the TC?
Your devices will actually use either one, depending on which it latches on to. The algorithm it uses takes some explaining but suffice it to say that it will be an improvement. Just be sure to specify the same exact network name and security on both the TC and 2wire. Your network will appear to be unchanged from using only the 2wire's, it will just have a larger area.
How large depends on how far apart you are willing to separate the 2wire and Time Capsule - while keeping them connected with your Ethernet cable.
As a corollary, with wireless devices capable of running at "N" speeds, will I be limited to "G" speeds because I won't be using the TC as a primary source of the network?
No. That is the advantage of the Time Capsule's simultaneous dual band feature. Its two wireless bands operate completely apart from one another, and are "bridged" or tied together in the Time Capsule.
If you have an iPad or an iPhone 5 for example, you can elect to have them use the "n" network exclusively, while older devices can continue to use the "g" network at the slower speeds they require.

At my wit's end with ATT UVerse and Time Capsule

I'm going to try this one last thread before I return all my UVerse stuff and go back to a simple Comcast modem. I have a Time Capsule, model A1409, and just got ATT U-Verse, model 3801HGV. I have searched the Apple community and any online website I can find that gives information about how to make the two work together and I have nothing but flashing amber. Airport Utility keeps saying the ethernet is unplugged (which the cable is plugged in from the modem to the TC), no DNS servers, and no internet connection. I have disabled the wireless function on the modem/router. I have put the Time Capsule in Bridge mode. I have rebooted everything. I have reset the TC three times. I have clicked on "DMZPlus mode". I've even enabled detection of router-behind-router conditions. I took the Time Capsule into Apple and it fired up right away, so no issues with the ethernet port. I can connect my PC to the ATT router and get internet access. No matter what I do, I still have flashing amber on my TC. Any last words of advice before I return everything from ATT?

If you want to run a test.. and that is all it will be..
I think I said the best way is to get a cheap fast ethernet switch and put it in between the two devices.. not everything in the ethernet world works.. it seldom fails now but it does fail at time.
If you are not interested in buying or borrowing a switch.. then you can do something to help in the TC interface.
This might only be available if you use 5.6 utility.. at least I have never done it via v6.
You will need to put the TC back into router mode. So start with another factory reset.
step 1 (only required if both units use same IP range).
And if the uverse modem is running 10.x.x.x IP then to give this the best shot, change the TC over to 192.168.1.x ip range. You do this by changing the DHCP Beginning Address from 10.0 to 192.168 in the picture below. If your uverse uses 192.168.x.x already ignore this step.
Step 2.
Check now that ethernet is still not working. If not go to the setup page for wan connection and change the WAN speed. Remember the TC must be plugged wan to uverse LAN port.
The only control offered is for WAN port to fix the speed. Change it down to 100Mbps/Full duplex.
Update the TC.
No luck, swap down to 10Mbps/Half-duplex ie the slowest possible. update the TC and see if it connects.
If it fails then there is something seriously wrong. And I doubt it will ever work.
If it happens to work at 100mbps/full duplex.. that is fast enough to cause no problems.. 10mbps is not.
I would either give up using the one item or the other.. but you do not want to keep this mode.. this is double NAT and we did it to test only.. success means the ethernet is failing to communicate correctly and go back and buy the switch I suggested.. fast ethernet.. small 5 port and it should fix it.

Att Uverse and Airport Express

After resetting to default settings and setting up, it disappears until I restart again. Just trying to join my AttUverse network

....it disappears until I restart again. Just trying to join my AttUverse network
This is normal if the Express is connecting using wireless only.
Why?
During setup, AirPort Utility is connecting to the Express using a temporary wireless signal that the Express is providing with a name like Apple Network xxxxxx.
When you click Update and tell the Express to "join" the ATT network, the Express is no longer providing the temporary Apple Network xxxxxxs signal, so it "disappears" from AirPort Utility because the connection to that network is no longer there.
The trick is to close AirPort Utility as soon as you see the message that the settings have been saved and wait for a green light on the Express.
Then log on the ATT network and open AirPort Utility. The Express will appear because it is a client of the ATT network at this point.

ATT Uverse and Mac Mail not sending emails!

I've read through all the other discussion topics pertaining to this and tried them all, adding and deleting accounts, setting up my account preferences according to the Uverse help page but nothing seems to work. I can receive emails fine but sending emails doesn't work any more. We just had Uverse installed less than 24 hours ago and ATT tech support won't help me out unless I pay $50! Are you kidding me? Because Mac Mail is a 3rd party app they won't help me solve this annoying issue, they've told me to just use their web mail program instead. I'm not sure what to do at this point, does anyone have some info that may help me out here?

AT&T U-Verse (uverse), as of July 2014, requires that you verify your non-AT&T mail accounts before they allow you to send outgoing non-AT&T mail.
Here's how to verify your non-AT&T mail accounts and link them to your AT&T U-verse account
https://discussions.apple.com/message/22291865
Log into your AT&T U-verse webmail att.net email account (e.g. Yahoo mail)
> click the gear at upper right of screen next to your name
Navigate to Settings > Accounts > Add
Add your non-AT&T mail accounts/ Enter info they require
U-verse will send a verification email to those mail accounts.
After you reply and verify your identity, you will be able to send outgoing email for those accounts via Mail, so long
as you have Mail configured.

How do I install Airport Time Capsule with ATT Uverse when two of my modems are wireless?

I recently purchased an Airport Time Capsule so that I can back up multiple Apple devices. I currently have ATT Uverse and my internet provider. Also, two of my modems are wireless. How can I set up the Time Capsule so the the two wireless modems will still work?

I think you are using wrong terminology so can I ask exactly what is the model number of the wireless modem??
The Uverse is already a router.. and I guess you have cable service.. so there is no need for more modems.. more likely you mean you have two wireless routers and these should be setup as Wireless Access Points.. (WAP or AP). If they are working as routers then you have far too many routers. If they are working as modems you have far too many modems.
It is impossible to tell you how to setup the TC until we know what the setup is.
But let me suggest the most straight forward approach is to plug the TC into the Uverse by ethernet (it cannot be used by wireless.. so this is necessary). Run the TC in bridge mode.. and create a wireless network. Test if you then can access it from your network client devices and do backups from Macs.. if so there is no need for the wireless modems.. leave them off.

Can i connect my att uverse 3600HGV to tc

i just changed to att uverse and have the 2wire 3600HGV wireless gateway, my question can I and how do I connect to timecapsule and can I eliminate using the 3600 for signal?(turn off)

- the 2250 has numerous outputs - COAX - analog channel 3, S-video, composite for SD and component & HDMI for HD.
You need a video card for your computer to accept one of these inputs and the audio connection.
Two big names are Egato and Hauppage, but there are many devices available.
The signal may be subject to degredation due to copyright interpretation.
If you have need to connect the computer & 2250 when you are at a distant location, consider a slingbox or other such device. The 2250 connects to the slingbox, which is connected to the internet & you can view & control(via IR blaster) your 2250 on your computer browser anywhere you have access to the internet( incluing home).

Can't connect to the internet in my home yet other devices can. I tried it in other Wifi places and it connects without a problem. My home Wifi is with Att uverse

Can't connect to the internet in my home yet other devices can. I tried it in other wifi places and it connects without a problem. My home wifi is with ATT Uverse. I cheched the IP address on my laptop and its different than on my Ipod although it on the same network.

Move off WEP to WPA or, preferably, to WPA2 (as recommended by Apple). WEP has been deprecated by the WiFi Alliance since 2004 as insecure (it can be cracked in seconds by any hacker).
Note that each device on a network has a unique IP address but if your address starts with 169 then you did not get a valid IP address assigned to you by your router. If restarting the router did not cure the problem then you should check for a firmware update for your router.

Iphone and att uverse email account problem

I just purchase my iphone and am having trouble with setting up one of my email accounts. The email address is with At&t Uverse service.. When I add my pop and smtp information and p/w it comes back as an invalid user id or p/w. I am 100% certain that I have typed the correct p/w. I then went to my Gmail Account (which I have been able to set up on the iphone) to try and add the att uverse email account and it is coming back with an error of incorrect pop information. I did call uverse service and they were of no help. If anyone has an idea please let me know... Thanks, John

One thing that might help.
Here is an article from the att support website that might help out.
http://helpme.att.net/pdf/uverse/uversehsi_qsgenglish.pdf
When you get an incorrect user name or password error on iphone or any other device, it is a response sent from the server. So, you hit the server you entered into host name of the email set up.
Hope this helps.

I have att u verse modem and it wifi was not working. So i got netgear wifi an d i connected my apple tv via ethernet cable to att uverse modem . i did not want slow dowm my wi fi speed. Now airplay is not working .

i have att u verse modem and it wi fi was not working. So i got net gear wi fi and connected to att modem . i connected my apple TV via Ethernet cable to att uverse modem . i did not want slow down my wi fi speed. My Apple phone is on Netgear wifi .Now airplay is not working .

Make sure that the Att Modem goes to the netgear router via ethernet cable. Then connect your Apple Tv with a ethernet cable to the back of the net gear router. Airplay wants it to both be connected to the same device, usually.

You can try as WRE54G is compatible with Wireless-G Routers and not Wireless-N...

T43 and Wireless connection with ATT Uverse

Hi geeks I am new. I have prob. I was having ATT DSL and as I switched to ATT Uverse I have problem to connect my T43 and T41 laptops to connect via wireless connection.
I have intelPro 2200bg wireless card(internal). I read the forums and tried evrything. Finally I went to Intel wireless card update driver website and downloaded a file. ONLY T43 got connected by wireless But on the taskbar the radio shows as Off. I wonder is it connected via my bluetooth or How and how to SWitch ON the radio on. I went and tried to switch on Wireless radio into ON mode???
Please help geeks , as I have to fix my T41 too to connect to the ATT Uverse. The ATT tech came and he too could not fix it. When I connect via Ethernet to the router I get 11.97 Mbps speed but wireless connection is the problem. I downloaded, thinkvintage toolkit, a software to find interference form cordless phone, etc, etc nothing worked.
Somehow my T43 got wireless connection. Not sure will it connect again if I switch it off.
I know little that the WPA encryption needs something diff the WEP encryption. Because my both T41 & T43 was able to wirelessly connect to my DSL router/modem.
If someone of you can throw some light it would be a great help else I may have to buy flash drive wireless card but I dunt want to occupy my flash drives as they are occupied by webcam & external speaker. Dunt like to put a flash drive hub.
Thanking you in advance.

Update on T43:
After formatting with Windows 2000 setup disk, when I used the IBM sent R&R disk I did not get the previously got "kernel_data_error BLUE system error screen. All 6 R&R original CDC got loaded into RAM and I am in the process of getting my system back to Factory State ( Just XP and IBM tools).
I would like to know is it OK to keep IBM Access Connection or Not ? I am kinda scared to remove it ; Also Since bought this T43 , now and then the Microsoft Windows auto updates did make my system from XP-Service pack 2 --> and a year ago it automatically installed Service pack 3 automatically. I just thought to mention this thinking can this be a problem in making my 2200Bg wireless to fail with Uverse ISP modem? as with the same setup/configurations the my wireless was able to connect using WEP key encryption to my previous AT&T DSL router. And Uverse Router requires WSP encryption per AT&T.
Other thing I worried was can my uninstalling Spybot and then going to McAfee Sw would have caused anyproblem to make my Wireless go wrong with UVerse, bcoz once i had problem and the McAfee tech support remotely connected to my T43 and said my registry is messed up and they have to fix it to make the McAfee work Properly.
Later when i got Uverse an AT&T friendly tech suggested that i better switch to AVG instead of McAfee; as McAfee uses too much of ram and it makes the computer to act slow and that may looks like the internet connection speed is slow.
..Anyway I am sharing these info to give as much I know thinking it may help people with same problem or the T$# geeks to think of solutions.
George, Now that i think i have made my load back to factory state and wanna see will the 2000 bg wireless will work or not before Windows starts its auto upgrade to Sv.Pk 3 version ( thinking any interference or glitch or something of that nature).
Also i am thinking of installing the new ThinkVintage tool; IS it OK?
If u get a chance please throw some light, would greatly appreciate. I will give an update if Intelpro wireless adaptor 2000bg works with AT& T uverse transition ( from DSL).
Mean while George where to you suggest me to buy parts/upgrades for this T43 (like better modem, more RAM etc. as i think like eBay or craiglist may give better pricing but i am not sure is it risky or not to buy )
If nothing works this time i am thinking of buying flash drive wireless card form best buy - please advise.
Thank you George, I am not a computer geek but i am happy that this forum exposed me to many smart thinkpad users and trouble shooters. Please give advise whenever u feel u got some solutions.
Thanks, again,
Jas
P.S. soory if my replies are long; but i thought to give more info so that u can get bettter idea of the real problem or needs of mine

How to set up time capsule with att uverse

So I'm thinking about getting a time capsule for my home network. I have several apple (Macbook pro, Ipad, Iphone) products and i think it would be convennient to have. The only problem I think I will be facing is seting up the time capsule along side with my Att uverse 2wire router. So i have several questions:
1) I have wireless receivers for my tvs that receive the signals from the main uverse 2wire modem/router. Now I read online that you can turn of the wireless router function of the main 2wire modem/router and just turn it in to a modem (from what I understood at least). So my question is if I turn of the wirless function of the main uverse 2wire router, will that affect me watching tv with the wireless recivers that uverse provided me???
2) I know I can probably go around the issue on question 1 by putting the time capsule in to bridge mode, but will I loose any functions on the time capsule by doing so? Will accessing the hard drive be possible if its on bridge mode?.
3) If getting a time capsule is not worth it bacause there is no way around the issues in the first two questions then is there another product that I can use that might be better for my situation?
Im no IT genius but I know my way around so I am comfertable trying to set it up I just need some guidence. Any help will be greatly appreciated it!!

So my question is if I turn of the wirless function of the main uverse 2wire router, will that affect me watching tv with the wireless recivers that uverse provided me???
The other receivers will not work if you turn off the wireless on the Uverse gateway.
I know I can probably go around the issue on question 1 by putting the time capsule in to bridge mode, but will I loose any functions on the time capsule by doing so?
The Time Capsule will need to connect to the Uverse gateway using an Etherent cable. The Time Capsule will be able to provide another wireless network when it is set up this way, but it will not be able to provide an additional Guest Network.
Will accessing the hard drive be possible if its on bridge mode?.
Yes
If getting a time capsule is not worth it bacause there is no way around the issues in the first two questions then is there another product that I can use that might be better for my situation?
This really depends on how many Macs that you need to back up. The Time Capsule can back up multiple Macs on a network. If you don't need that type of capability, then it would be much simpler, and a lot less expensive to connect a hard drive directly to your Mac and back up the Mac that way.
Half of the cost of the Time Capsule is tied up in a wireless router, so if you don't plan to use the wireless on the Time Capsule, you will be paying for features that you do not use.
