Why Do My HR21's Hate COPS?

It's the only show I ever have issues recording. I set it on two HR21-100's manually to record Fox 11 at 8:00PM every Saturday for an hour and sure enough it's not there again on either of them. My Dad has a show he loves five days a week and when I manually set that it works perfectly 100% of the t

You DO understand that AT&T has no control over the programming on any of the networks, right?    And you DO understand that if you watch, let's say HBO with another provider, let's say Spectrum, the SAME programming would be on, right?

What can I do?

Why the heck does ATTuverse show the same old outdated movies month after month? I'm fed up with paying such high monthly bills and can't find anything decent to watch night after night even on weekends. What ATT is doing is a crime. What can I do?

Uverse keeps stuttering

For the past 1.5 months, my tv receivers keep stuttering and freezing, especially when I press pause or try to rewind a recorded program. It will pause for a few seconds, then skip forward into the show I am watching. It will also say "channel has jumped to live tv" or something like that. The last

I have a Genie mini connected to an older flat screen TV. The TV sleep timer used to work until recently.  After the TV timer gets to zero, it looks like the Genie mini forces the TV back on now.  Perhaps there was a firmware update to the mini that changed things?  If I change the i

Poor Customer Service

I was transferred to AT&T on 7/17/14 to switch from Earthlink DSL to Uverse. This was part of a bundle with DirecTV. Everything was set up and I informed them I was switching from Earthlink DSL. The AT&T rep's main concern was getting me to dump DirecTV which I did not do. They could not install unt

An unexpected error occurred?

After several days of the U-verse app being unable to connect, it works ONE day. Now it won’t display favorites, so I try to log out and back in, and all I get is "An unexpected error occurred".  I'm seriously starting to think about xFinity. I’m fed up with the declining reliability of U-verse!

We haven't a clue, but let's hope it's reasonable. It will surely (we hope) be cheaper than a pair of wireless adapters.

NETWORKED VIA ETHERNET REQUIRED OR WILL SWIM SWITCH WORK?

I have a HD DVR 22 hooked up to the internet, a standard DVR (not hooked up to the internet), and a hd receiver not hooked up to the internet. Both DVRs are hooked to a SWIM. Can the receivers see each other through that or is the ethernet network connection required?
