Receiver Possessed

I recently upgraded from the non-DVR HD receiver to a new HR24-500 HD DVR.  I've had it for about two months.  It's hooked to a Samsung 3D Plasma.  After having the new receiver for about a week, I started noticing what appeared to be remote control interference issues.  The receiver would simply st

Cable box lights all on, no picture.

One of three cable boxes is acting up. Says it does not have signal available. Tried resetting, no go. Over night unplugged then worked for one hour the next morning then said no signal available. All lights are on even when the power was disconnected.

How could you change payment due dates to the first of themonth?

Social Security disability allotments aren't posted until the first of the month.  Is this a ploy to increase your revenue by having your disabled customers incur late-payment charges? For shame. AT&T.

telecast being displayed has the sound cutting out. Every now and then. Very annoying!!!

It seems that the picture stutters and than the sound stutters.  It is happening on all stations.  The first echelon tech just keeps telling me to reboot my modem.  There must be something AT&T can do.
