Error Message: U-verse is not available at this time. Please try again later. | How do I troubleshoot my Wired Receiver

This morning 2 of my wireless boxes weren't working properly, while my wired box/DVR was working fine.

After several attempts to restart the wireless receivers individually, I went to unplug the power cord of the WAP. I accidentally unplugged the power cord to the Gateway INSTEAD of the WAP. 

Now, the wireless boxes are working fine, but my wired box/DVR will not restart. I have attempted to restart 10+ times over the past 6 hours.

Just keeps giving me the error message: "U-verse is not available at this time. Please try again later."

Any alternative troubleshooting suggestions?

Make sure the physical connection is still good.  You’ll know part of the puzzle if the green link light on the settop box is lit when starting it.

We're happy to help, @tayishajmcguire!

 

In addition to @gr8sho's suggestion, try following these reboot steps that @_xyzzy_ provided another customer who was getting this error message. This should have all receivers functioning properly again.

 

We'll be here if you need further assistance!

Thank you @gr8sho, Aminah and @_xyzzy_ for your feedback. 

It finally works!

1. Unplugged Gateway, WAP & DVR for 30 seconds.

2. Pressed the Red Reset Button next to the Power button on the Gateway for 10 seconds & Pressed the Reset button on back of WAP for 10 seconds

3.  I completed a DVR REBOOT tutorial using one of the TV's with a working wireless box 

and it worked. Thanks for everyone's feedback!

Glad it worked out.  FWIW, I too will perform a factory reset periodically on my networking equipment.
