How to get Apple TV to load?

Apple TV will no longer load on my DirecTV streaming device. I have tried several things to troubleshoot including turning the device on and off, turning the TV on and off, clearing the cache, forcing the app to stop, but nothing works. I tried to uninstall the app but since it came preloaded I cannot see any way to uninstall and then reinstall the app. What can I do?

Have you restarted your modem and router?

I have not. I hate to screw up everyone else’s tv too. But I can. Why are all other apps working tho?

No idea. That's a question for DirecTV. Apple has always been an issue with the service. Are the other sets using Apple or other streaming devices?

Can you make your phone a hot spot and try to see if it works using cellular?

Go into settings---apps. Find the Apple TV app and disable it. Then re-enable it. See if that fixes it. Also go into google play store and make sure all the apps are updated.
