Direct TV outage

[Uncle Nate 2097]

It’s like someone blowed up the satellite. No direct tv currently at my house in North Texas. Not even the DVR. 

Anyone else experiencing the same?

I got a message saying that my guide hadn't updated in over an hour, so of course I reset the receiver. Now I can't do anything because it's hung up acquiring guide data. I'm also getting a signal loss message every now and then. My signals are at 99%. Other TVs in the house are working fine. Just ignored the original guide update message.

Whatever you do, don't reset your receiver. I'm on hold, mainly just to see if they'll give up some info. They are slammed right now. I checked online and it looks like this is a problem all over the country.

Well great. We reset the receiver.

That tends to happen when that's their default recommendation for literally everything.

Stupid AT&T.

Every time I glance at this thread title I see “Direct TV Outrage”, and I’m like, well yeah.
