I did notice last night that my stream of House of Cards looked way better than it has in the past month (when it started to go bad). It was HD level the whole hour, while previously it would only go HD for about 10 minutes total randomly through the episode.

I'm a Comcast user in San Mateo, CA.

That is probably my doing :) Comcast had some internal congestion issues that we helped illustrate.
Can you tell me why Netflix is so terrible on Uverse 20Meg in San Jose?

Blurry mess.

Speedtest is always 13Meg+

Its the same reason Comcast was so bad, except you have ATT. Different companies, same problem.

Switch to Sonic or something and that problem will go away.

and what's the problem exactly?
Endemic congestion.
