DVR blinking red and green

My DVR has been flashing red and green and the screen showed a gear but not making any progress and showed a red X. I unplugged it and now it hasn't been able to connect to tv since. Do I need reset my modem? I unplugged my modem but I'm not sure if I had to do anything else. Thank you

Red X and pixelation

DVR is freezing, rebooting itself, showing the red x with a 1. Replay of recorded shows on other receivers will freeze and force you to restart the program. If you fast forward that point from the beginning, it will usually play for a while before doing it again.

Watching the Red Wings on Bally Sports Detroit when outside the Detroit area

We are in Waco, TX, and are die-hard Red Wings fans, and need to be able to watch The NHL Channel, NHL Center Ice, and Bally Sports Detroit, so we can get all of our Red Wings games with their commentators and Pre/Post game shows. It seems if you live IN Detroit, you can stream Bally Sports Detroit

The red button on sports channels.

I think they should add UFC and Boxing fights on there when the fights happen. They have it with the X-games, NASCAR, and Golf...might as well add it too the red button menu.
