DO YOU USE DIRECTV FOR BUSINESS?

Regularly resetting your DIRECTV receiver, much like rebooting your phone or computer,
can help resolve common issues and maintain peak performance.

When to Reset:

  1. Picture or Sound Issues: Fixes pixelation, bad picture quality, and audio problems.
  2. Missing Channels: Restores channels to your guide.
  3. Remote Control Problems: Helps if the remote isn’t responding.
  4. Loss of Signal: A factory reset may fix more serious signal issues.
  5. Internet Connection Problems: Reset to restore internet connectivity.

 

How to Reset:

  1. Red Reset Button: Press and hold the red reset button (on the side or inside the access card door) until the receiver restarts.
  2. Power Cycle: Unplug the receiver for 20 seconds, then plug it back in.
    Factory Reset: Hold the power button on the receiver for 20 seconds (erases custom settings).
  3. Unplug & Reconnect: Unplug both your receiver and router, wait 15 seconds, then plug them back in.
    Additional Tips:
  4. Check HDMI Cables: If picture issues persist, inspect your HDMI connections.
    Verify Power Supply: Ensure the receiver is plugged in and check your circuit breaker if needed.
    Refresh vs. Reset: A refresh restores missing channels, while a reset is a more thorough fix.
