Guide says "Getting Information" for every channel???

"Accept as solution."
Only unplugging the box on EACH affected TV worked us what it took. Resetting by pushing and holding buttons did not.
We have some sort of viewing, recording, playback issue ATLEAST weekly, and there is no one "fix"......and that includes calling AT&T and having more technician visits than I can remember. Ever since Direct TV became "The Favorite", our UVerse has gone downhill. I'm so tired of restarting/rebooting the individual boxes and/or the tower that it just infuriates me to pay our huge bill every month....we've been UVerse customers since it first came to this area. (We live in a suburban neighborhood but have "too many trees" for Direct TV.) Cable is ridiculous, as it's gone at the first clap of thunder in a storm! So we are stuck with UVerse, which we actually used to think was amazing. Now? Not so much.
(Thanks for the help and for reading my whining!)
