U-verse and Samsung Smart TV Not Compatible

Purchased a new Samsung TV and when connected I received an error message H1001 - DHCP cannot display.  I spent 1 hr on the phone with AT&T customer service who finally told me that I have to buy a HDMI splitter to resolve the issue?  How does this make sense?  Well, I went ahead and purchased and installed but now the Samsung smart remote will not navigate to HD channels and goes to SD.  Anybody have any thoughts on resolution? I cannot be the only person having this issue.

Do the HD channels show up if you are using the Uverse remote?  Are you trying to access the HD channels bypassing the Uverse box?

No.  

 

The thread you sent is not the issue I am having issues with.  I am not trying to connect to the WiFi with the TV when receiving the error.  Appreciate the help though.

Sorry...I edited when I realized you had a different issue.

 

Was your Uverse working before this TV?  Are you trying to access the HD channels without using the Uverse box?

Yes, everything was working fine previously.

 

Now back to same issue with the splitter installed.

 

No, trying to use the Uverse box to access.

Have you tried using another one of the hdmi inputs on the tv?

Does the tv support ARC (Audio Return Channel) and can it be disabled?

Yes, as well as multiple HDMI cords.

What about the ARC thing I mentioned?

 

Some other experiments (not necessary solutions) I can think of:

 

  • When the error occurs, unplug the hdmi cable and plug it back in.
  • Try rebooting the dvr or receiver (pull plug for 15 secs.).
  • Try unplugging the tv for a few seconds.
  • Replace the dvr or receiver (obviously a longer experiment).
  • You can always use component cables.

Posting in a 4year old thread is unnecessary.  Open a new thread if need be.
