DO YOU USE DIRECTV FOR BUSINESS?

- Missing Channels: Restores channels to your guide.
- Remote Control Problems: Helps if the remote isn’t responding.
- Loss of Signal: A factory reset may fix more serious signal issues.
- Internet Connection Problems: Reset to restore internet connectivity.
How to Reset:
- Red Reset Button: Press and hold the red reset button (on the side or inside the access card door) until the receiver restarts.
- 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). - Unplug & Reconnect: Unplug both your receiver and router, wait 15 seconds, then plug them back in.
Additional Tips: - 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.
