DIRECTV Stream showing incorrect local channels

Had DirecTV stream for seven years in Indiana. Purchased box and remote to record shows. Moved to Texas in 2024 and our recorded shows are showing Indiana local news, etc. We can watch Houston local news LIVE but cannot record anything because it says the "show is over".

I have updated my billing address and my location on the box, but I'm still getting Indiana news.

Contacted DirecTV a while back and they couldn't resolve the issue.

Any suggestions?

Do you get the correct locals and recorded content using another device like your phone or a tablet? Have you rebooted your cable modem?

Did you change the address on your billing credit card? And on the Dtv website under your account?

@bcbsncjlj I haven't tried to record anything with my phone or tablet. I will have to try that and report back.

@Ludwick577 Yes, I have changed my billing address on my billing credit card and the Dtv account.
