Rebooting your Set-Top Box (STB) is most often the best way to resolve any issues.

Try rebooting each STB one at a time, checking the TV picture quality for each one.

• Unplug the device
• Wait 30 seconds
• Plug it back in
• Give it a few minutes to fully power up

If rebooting the equipment did not fix the problem, let’s check the wiring.

There is a coaxial cable connecting each Set-Top Box to a wall outlet. Check each end of the cable to make sure:

• The connection is snug and secure
• There is no obvious damage to the cable

If there is damage to the cable, replace it with another coaxial cable.

If you are using a cable splitter, make sure its connections are secure.

Let’s make sure the electrical connection for any Set-Top Box (STB) isn’t causing a problem.

Make sure each STB is getting power. If it has no display, there may be a faulty electrical outlet.

If any STB is plugged into a surge protector or power strip, try plugging it directly into a wall outlet.
