constant resetting of password

In the middle of programing of sports and regular programs and also movie wation the directv will go out and you have to go and rest the password every time and it is very frustrating,because i have to go to att to rest the password before I can sign back in to directv. what can i do to stop this from happening?

Don't understand why you have to go to AT&T to reset your password. AT&T and DirecTV have been 2 different companies for a year now. There is no relationship to AT&T outside ownership. Do you have any AT&T services like internet or cell service? Are the credentials (ID and Password) the same across services (AT&T and DirecTV)?

Probably! Many posts on the forum with subscribers using the same credentials. Support recommends separate and even different credentials. Being linked is even another issue.
