Follow the ATT Uverse troubleshoot steps briefly to help yourself out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Internet Service<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>As the AT&amp;T U-verse box is solely dependent on internet connectivity, the device may not work when the internet connectivity is poor. If you are someone who is facing this issue we are going to provide you with the basic solution to that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For resolving this issue you must contact the AT&amp;T customer service department with the 9 digits Uverse account number. Once you connect with them, describe your issues and they will try to analyze them and then diagnose with relative measures and basic troubleshooting which can solve the issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If after the troubleshooting, the problem isn\u2019t solved AT&amp;T will try to send a technician to your place so that he gets the proper understanding of what is wrong with the device and he\u2019ll try to resolve it with his expertise. Don\u2019t worry about the charges, it will be completely free of cost and doesn\u2019t cost a penny.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Internet Speed<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a common problem that you might face if you are living in an area that is largely crowded because of the number of people living nearby your house. The more the number of people living in your neighborhood the lesser the speed you would receive than the plan you would pay for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is also another issue related to the low internet speed. If you live far away from the VRAD, you can also face this issue because the reach would be that great as compared to when you are closer to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are thinking there is a way to resolve this issue, there is nothing much you can do about that. Even after upgrading your plan, you won&#8217;t see a major change in the network speed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Red Light Flashing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If you find that there is a red light flashing on your AT&amp;T Uverse box<\/strong> and you are unaware of this situation, don\u2019t worry we\u2019ll explain what that means.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Generally, when a red light is flashing on your AT&amp;T Uverse box, it indicates that the <strong>device needs a firmware update<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company releases these updates at intervals to keep the device updated with the technical changes, improve the performance and resolve the bugs which users are facing. The company releases these updates to improve the device&#8217;s productivity and provide the user with a smooth experience and addition to various new features to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are observing this red light flashing, it is recommended that you connect your device to a strong internet connection and update the firmware with the latest version of the firmware available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. No Signal<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a common problem that most users face with the AT&amp;T Uverse device. There could be a couple of reasons for the weak or no signal on your AT&amp;T Uverse box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first reason could be anything that is obstructing the signal such as a tree or a lamppost or anything coming in between.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another reason for that could be the change in your location. If you have shifted recently to a new location, the plan may not be updated yet as per your new location. Give it some time and wait for the issue to be resolved automatically or you can do is connect with the customer care service from AT&amp;T.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also run troubleshooting methods to help yourself resolve the issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow the steps below to troubleshoot ATT Uverse yourself \u2013<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Using the remote, press and hold the Okay and Menu button for 3 seconds<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Then press the power key<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Then press the buttons in the order you want the devices to be turned on.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Then press OK and the setting will be saved.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>There are different buttons for different devices on the remote such as the On-Demand button for the TV, the Blue button for the amp or the receiver, and the Green button for the Uverse box. Press the buttons according to your requirements<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Blue Light flashing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are seeing that there is a blue light flashing on your AT&amp;T Uverse box, it is indicating that <strong>there is something wrong with the device itself<\/strong>. It is a warning light that starts blinking or flashing when there is an issue with the device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At this stage, you should either <strong>contact AT&amp;T Customer care for technical support<\/strong> so that you can help you out by diagonalizing the device over chat or call and if the issue isn\u2019t resolved they will provide a technician for the support who will repair the issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also run the troubleshooting programs yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For that, you need to change the aspect ratio of the screen from 720 to 1080i if you are using an HD TV Set. That should probably fix your issue and if you are using a non-HD TV and if the blue light is still blinking that means that your TV is either connected to Coax or a component. In this case, you can change the aspect ratio to fix it. That should stop the blue light from blinking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Defective AT&amp;T Uverse Box<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The most possible reason for your device not working could be the box itself. There could be malfunctioning inside the box that needs to be resolved or else if that is working fine the cable service could be the next possible reason for that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are technical things that you should avoid resolving on your own and should better contact the AT&amp;T service centre. They are going to communicate with you over the net or through a call and would guide you on the ways to troubleshoot the issue and help you to resolve it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to reset ATT U-verse box?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you wish to reset the AT&amp;T Uverse box, you can do that on your own without any difficulty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow the steps given below to reset the AT&amp;T Uverse box on your own \u2013<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>The first thing you need to do is to unplug the device from the power source<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Then find a small tiny which will be at the back of the device<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Press and hold the button for roughly around 10 seconds<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>After doing that release the button and replug the power cord at the back of the device<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Once you are done doing that, you\u2019ll see that the television would show this message \u2013 \u201c<strong>Uverse TV Resuming<\/strong>\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you are done following these steps your device will be reset to its default settings again and you\u2019ll be able to use the AT&amp;T Uverse box again normally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These were a couple of problems that could make your AT&amp;T Uverse box not work properly.
